Far Cry Instincts (Pal XB)

[Ciaran]

Anyone else having trouble playing this? Its giving me a head ache and at times I'm having trouble focusing on distant objects.

[Concept]

Not really. But I do (oddly) tend to feel tired after playing it a couple of hours.

[Ish]

Burnout does that to me. I find I'm concentrating so hard it actually exhausts me. So far I've had no problems with Far Cry.

[Ben-K]

gerry has been on this all day long, if you have any questions i'm betting he'll know...

Are you sure that's not just his server? He's been "online and joinable" since I bought it on Saturday....

[Paleface]

Yeah, Gerry's been leaving his box up as a dedicated server. Hence why he looked like he was permanently on.

[Family Fry]

Aw man game has just took a turn for the worse, for me personally.
Somehow the game has put itself onto GOD mode now i cant die, have unlimited ammo, grenades. I have NO WAY of knowing how the **** to switch it off cause i dont even know how it switched on.
WELL GUTTED, now i will probably have to restart the whole game again

Been on this all weekend, whether it be the Story Mode or Multiplayer, where I haven't had as much fun since Halo 2.

Had excellent games with Gerry, Mardigan, Yoshi and Boris - some excellent tactics employed whether it be planting loads of Tree Whips near our base on the Custom Map or opposing players crawling around the perimeter to get the jump on us, knife fights underwater or even in true classic Benny Hill fashion, Gerry or Boris I think it was controlling the Hovercraft around the swamp map.

Got this game Saturday. Played for a while on single-player. The most frustrating part was setting a Branch Whip trap. Having set it I threw a stone to attract the enemies attention. He wandered past the tree without setting of the trap. About a dozen stones later I gave up and shot him. Walked past the tree and I am sure I sprung the trap... fortunately with very little appreciable effect. Is there a secret to getting the enemy to spring these?

Where are you throwing the rocks? Throw at the trap, the noise of the rock should show up as a grey dot on the radar and the guard will go over and investigate... THWAP! Of course, you have to hide in the bushes like a ninja.
Or you could do what I do, set up a trap, decide to wait a little while... get impatient and instead of chucking a rock, pull out a grenade... BAM!

Much more satisfying!

A shot to the head seemed to do the trick adequately. I just threw the stone near the tree, obviously didn't pick the right place!!

Throw right at the base of the tree, that always works for me.

Great game this,

loving the Map Editor, Spent most of the day yesterday recovering and editing. Made 2 maps "possibly Pish" and "Split". Im currently sketching some Idea's got a beezer in the works.

Looking for some idea's and sketches of potential maps. I was thinking maybe a water world type set up. Also a skeletrics type map ....

So many possibilities, just make sure your signed into live when you create them, otherwise you'll never be able to play them on Live

[Mardigan8]

Am gonan try the map editor tonight, hopefully get a little beauty built up.

[Bassman]

A race track sounds like a fun idea. I will have to have a play. Don't have live though... at the moment.
