Uh hu, funnily enough ive sat in the one place with the sniper rifle shot one guy and watched as one after one the enemys came around the same corner straight into my scope. As for the swarm ive had 3 or 4 of them in close proximity before and half the time all they did was fire insults and not try to fire. Very inteligent ai there misc. rolleyes:

Oh yeah and i forgot, i gotta say cheats also explains the ai running on the spot into a tree or them lobbing nades about with the intent of killing their own guys. rolleyes:

Ai = oOo: and thats all there is to it.

Haha, that reminds me of Goldeneye 007 for N64. You could open up a door to alert the enemies, and they'd all come running out like fools straight into your gunfire as you hide to the side of the door.

Thats literally all they do in this, anytime the ai is alerted they will usually all come charging the one way, then its a matter of sitting back and picking them off.

Its funny that the ai is one of the things this game was hyped for, then again so was rtcw and that was nothing special.

Without cheats? M4 carbine, same result. sleeping:

Rendering distances are good, can see enemies from a good distance and virtualy anywhere in your line of sight with the binoculars.

[quote:30316]The game looks good but not exactly what i would call real, it has an almost "too colourful" look to it and ends up looking rather cartooney than anything resembling realism. To be honest im still more impressed with the graphics in the leaked doom 3 alpha than i am with the graphics in this game.

Open your console and type \r_rendermode 3
This will select cold colors and therefore make things much more realistic
looking. You can also try 0, 1, 2, 4 and 5 for different graphical renders...

If you guys are bitching about the Far Cry singleplayer experience, then you are just looking for something to bitch about. It is by far the best FPS to come out in years.

AI= good
physics = awesome
infinite draw distance
weapons rock
graphics are awesome
$39.99 = good price

Funny how everyone remembers to praise the graphics and the AI, but neglect totally to mention the playability.

Not one person has said "It plays like a dream", in any of the praise I've seen thus far.

I don't need to bitch about it, I just didn't like it one bit. Not in the slightest. Worst demo I've played all year and nowhere near "the best FPS to come out in years".

COD totally owns it for gameplay alone. Far smoother, far more fluid and far better physics and AI, although no AI has ever blown me away in any game.

Also, Painkiller totally rips it to shreds for gameplay, but even that doesn't really impress me that much because it's too old-school.

But, that's my opinion. You're entitled to yours. Even if a game looks the best ever (and it's hardly that anyway) I won't play it unless the playability grabs me - Farcry's "playability" virtually threw me away and forced me to not play it.

Yes, we know your position on that. Get over it. rolleyes:

By the way, quoting someone without adding your own comments is spam...knock it off.
