HARDER =BETTER

RedRaven · June 04, 2009, 08:08:47 AM

started playing on normal difficulty, finished the story at a pleasent rate, 2nd time Hardcore, thats been cool for a while, little bit more challanging than normal.
Last Night / Today started on Infamous level
F£$%&!&%$£K MEEEEE.

much much more challanging, and less ammo/meds/grenades at hand, playing thru with no cheats just basic game, intel and DLC updates and 1.03 patch,

its all been ok untill now - tutorial mission to clear out Slaughter house and rescue first buddy.

6 Deaths so far 6!

didnt die that many times doing the whole game on normal.

might have to forget keeping 100% accuracy on this level.

spaceboy said they shoot poisonous bullets on infamous :o

Never tried infamous, maybe next playthrough!

PZ · June 04, 2009, 10:20:37 AM

Those bullets on infamous might as well be grenades, they're so lethal - still have not mastered that level yet.

Art Blade · June 04, 2009, 11:24:12 AM

I don't think I have the stomach for a complete walkthrough on hardcore. Just tried a little, and indeed, a whole collection of four-letter-words spring to mind ;D

No poisonous bullets, but my first playthrough I died more times than Corey Feldman's career! :'(

good one about Corey Feldmen. To clarify, I was JOKING about poisonous bullets - that they must be poisonous because it only took a couple to kill me as opposed to Normal when you can take a few to the chest.

I just don't have the skills (or patience) for infamous. I applaud you guys that can progress on that level.

it may well be Harder but its oh so very satisfying to take out all 4 weapons convoys (2 x Assault Trucks, 1 x Big Truck, 5 enemy mercs) with nothing but a Pistol and Machete :-X

PZ · June 16, 2009, 09:19:46 PM

Now, that's what I call infamous, dke! :-X

you are my hero dke58... Braddock style :-X :-X

RedRaven · July 10, 2009, 07:13:05 AM

now i'm finding that it works just as well as BETTER = HARDER . spent a few days enjoying the much superior graphics capabilities in my system, all groovy. but never before was i jumping at shadows and mistaking far distant foliage for enemy mercs!
having all the graphics options at max is more than a bit distracting at times. consequently its added yet another side to the game where having to filter out moving shadows, noisy wildlife etc. keep getting distracted by pretty sights. actually got shot twice in the back last night! still hurts

Braddock ? not familiar with the name.

WHAT? Not familiar with Braddock, the super commando? Be careful with what you say son... HE is always listening.
Sometimes I feel like I'm doing the same myself while playing FC2 8)

On a side note... that's gallery item n° 1001... so you were right dke ;)

RedRaven · July 10, 2009, 07:44:22 AM

ahhh, not a fan of the Chuckster, got to be Clint or Arnie for me ( Conan was so so good, and Sly Stalone sucks eggs ). and , well , Clint is Clint, on a horse, back of a Sherman tank or driving with primates he is one of best actors of his generation, and the two films to do with Iwo Jima he directed are good slices of cinema , specialy as far films have near enough all been done before. looking forward to see Gran Torino, looks gritty.

JRD · July 10, 2009, 07:55:29 AM

I agree with you Clint rocks :-X

Those two films about Iwo Jima was fantastic... excellent war movies focused on soldiers (Letters from Iwo jima) and backstage politics (Flags from our fathers) rathar than just special FX and dumb stories.

Stallone sucks, agree too... Arnie is a great "actor"... love those Terminator movies (except T3) and Conan was just beautyful ;D ;D

But Chuckie Norris is so cheesy that it becomes good ;D.
I can't help but laugh at his faces... see how the vietcongs are laughin before being shot... :P

hahahahahahahahauhauahusahuahfsdhfpusohg

RedRaven · July 10, 2009, 08:03:06 AM

my son told me about a web site somewhere full of Chuck Norris facts, but its all silly stuff and spoof info. he is back home tommorrow so will find out what its called for you, he likes a bit of Chucks Cheese factor.

have you seen newest Terminator flick ? good and entertaining, who could of guessed Batman is Conners dad :-\

JRD · July 10, 2009, 08:10:14 AM

I know that CN facts webpage... silly indeed... but some of his old movies are funny to watch. He once did a final fight against Bruce Lee at the Coliseum!! That's a classic...

Haven't seen new terminator yet... too busy gaming ;D

PZ · July 12, 2009, 03:54:48 PM

Stallone has a face reminiscent of one of Madame Tussaud's wax figures that has been exposed to high heat ... ;)

... and what's worse for his father, he looks exactly like his mother. Put lipstick on Stallone and voila, you have mom!

Art Blade · July 12, 2009, 04:26:42 PM

EEeeeewwwwww! Yuck! Did she w@&k out too? Maybe he's using her army clothes!

PZ · July 12, 2009, 07:20:53 PM

lol, she looked like what her son would look like in drag, complete with the twisted sneering speech impediment. ;D

JRD · July 12, 2009, 07:56:41 PM

One word... Rambotox ;D ;D ;D

PZ · July 12, 2009, 07:58:41 PM

ROFL!!! :-X

Great one tehsam016

Good days when I could stand Eddie Murphy..... :-X

Art Blade · July 13, 2009, 01:40:16 PM

You shouldn't have posted that. Because I was completely unaware that Eddie was a comedian with his own show. So I had some catching up to do... until I was fed up, too ;D I only knew him from a couple of movies, dubbed, mostly. Not too long ago I got some 1980s movies with him and heard his original voice for the first time. And now the shows on youtube. Most of what I saw was either about him going on about the "F"-thing or how he had a tough childhood. I'm exhausted now LOL enough for the next couple of decades. But thanks for the eddiecation ;)

JRD · July 13, 2009, 01:44:44 PM

Shrek's Donkey, Art... it's one of the funniest voice over he did recently... :)
