    We noticed something when infiltrating a compound guarded by challenging enemies.

    We went in first during the day and noticed large roaming patrols of high level enemies.

    When we came back at night time a good few of the patrols were asleep in their quarters making it easier to enter and exit the compound unnoticed.

    We stayed for a while and noticed that has the sun began to rise the soldiers began to wake and resume their patrols.

    Yeah, I had to infiltrate a huge base in the new area. Really secure compound walked all the way around it and found a huge tank, hoped in and drove right in the front gate that automatically opened for me and no one fired on me.....they obviously taught I was one of them.

    Same thing with the UNIDAD patrols if you rob one of the cars you can drive around and they dont shoot you.

    Once you get the Grenade launcher Stealth goes out the window. Such a satisfying "gunk" noise from it.

    I played a bit yesterday but the vehicle controls just put me completely off.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Played it briefly last night, and put the difficulty right up. Seems pretty good so far, so i'll give it a decent play over the weekend.

    I love that enemies actually die when you shoot them in the head (i'm looking at you Division).


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,711 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Played a few hours lastnight,quite a few times the ai just ignored their buddies body i just killed with sniper rifle from range,literally just walking over the body which is disappointing.

    As much as I'm enjoying messing about with the beta I'm pretty sure I wont be making a purchase as already I can see repetition is setting in.
    Played solo so maybe its a lot better co-op.

    That's disappointing. I was playing Sniper Elite 4 the other night and noticed an enemy run in to carry an injured soldier to safety that I had shot, I would have expected something similar from this game!

    New area is okay but so big and barren that getting around is a pain in the ass. You spend so much time chasing down vehicles ( I know you can unlock vehicle drop off) making a chopper an absolute must which are few and far between and if around heavily guarded. Then when you do get one the controls are the BIGGEST let down in this game, so unresponsive and dont get me started on missile launchers every 30 secs and UNIDAD choppers every 2 mins......granted I have the difficulty level raised but that should not affect the travel in the game just the missions IMHO.

    Pro Tip: Grenade launcher takes down a chopper in one shot. That defend the radio mission is much easier with a grenade launcher and well placed mines.

    I am worried about he repetition I have it pre ordered and I got bored last night waiting around for others to finish the 1st mission, I think it did it 11 times yesterday.

    I am getting the opposite. Maybe it's just glitched.

    If they come across a body they group up and set off an alarm and then call in reinforcements.

    I'll probably get it, but only cause i have the code from the new graphics card.

    You shot him in the balls while he carried his friend, didn't you? :p

    is there something with the Sniper rifle in this game that you have to aim high to account for distance? Several times I've scoped enemies bang on in the head while they stand still and it's a miss, or is the rifle just inaccurate?

    I even tried it with a sheep from as far away as I could reasonably see it, bang in the middle of the face and the sheep got up and walked away.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,388 ✭✭✭✭Jayop


    Also, has anyone else noticed that it's generally really tough to find high ground from which to snipe in the early missions?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,133 ✭✭✭GottaGetGatt


    Are your AI team mates still useless. As in do you have to position them yourself when lining up sync shots?

    I think this is pretty accurate:

    Still more of a co op game then than a single player ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,419 ✭✭✭FAILSAFE 00


    Went into the second area and I have to say I am very impressed. The difficulty shot right up.

    We went to fly near a compound and a SAM launcher shot us down. We jumped out and parachuted down to the the outskirts of the base where we where attacked by patrols and mortar rounds that were coming from the back of the compound. We eventually were killed.

    Later at night time we killed some key people that gave us access to missile sites and we rigged C4 and after we escaped the compound we triggered the explosion. Really cool to watch.

    It's a game that is very rough around the edges yet it looks like they have made a really fun game. I am commenting about co-op.

    It's definitely in my must buy list now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 856 ✭✭✭Battleflag


    I've had a lot of fun with my mates playing this but the unless the missions start adding a bit of variety and hardsip I can't see why you would buy this game. After the closed and open beta I feel the finished product isn't going to be amazing


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    Well I'm really enjoying it. I cleared the first area and moved on to another which has ramped up the challenge nicely. Tried a bit of co-op with a friend, but he wasn't really digging it as much as me.

    It's a nice mix of Far Cry 2 and MGS 5 which I like, but I can see the game play getting repetitive for some as there doesn't appear to be a huge amount of variety of mission types.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,711 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Put quite a bit of time into it and really enjoyed it [to a point] but its close to one of the most repetitive games ive ever played so its off my buy list.

    30 hours to download this beta. Is it worth it??
