Far Cry 2 bugs squashed on 360, 'Hardcore Mode' added

Though I entirely disagree about the graphics, this game was an epic letdown.

Bought it used, returned it the next day.
Gameplay was stale, controls were far from polished, AI/Spawns were awful.
Overall the game could have easily been much better than it was.

As for multiplayer? Garbage.
Play any well rated FPS on the 360 and then play this.

Far Cry 2's flaws are evident.
I mean it took 200 days to fix a game breaking bug.

Far Cry was a shooter for patient people. Most sandbox shooting games revolve around a fully city rather than the plains and jungles of africa. You get a true sense of the country in both its political decline and natural beauty. I'd rather just stare out across an open field watching the grass blow in the wind along with the leaves in the trees, a few zebras walking around just grazing, big bright beautiful blue sky.
To you it may have been a pain in the ass to get places, but getting there was half the fun of this game.
Stale controls? really I'd honestly like you to define what you mean, it seems like you just picked a negative adjective at random and bitched about controls that were fine.

Enemies really weren't all that powerful. You just had to use your assault rifle much closer than you can use your sniper. So many different combos of weapons made it so you never had to have the same encounter twice in a row. Those who say its repetitive allowed it to be repetitive.

I don't really know what else to say. The graphics, audio, and gameplay all top notch.
If you really hated this game then you were doing it wrong.

There was a save station pretty much two minutes distance from wherever you are unless you just finished a mission thats way off in one of the corners of the map. It really wasn't that big of a problem, plus a save anywhere option really ruins some games. I'll just go into a fight, save then when I'm down to no ammo and a shitty pistol for my sidearm instead of having to dash to a safe house to save and resupply or sneak by another guard post you could just save in the middle of a fight so when things go wrong you can reset.

I didn't respond to his outlandish claims, I made a statement about the greatness of Far Cry 2. School is a powerful place of learning kids.

But you see I did fiance the game. We're engaged and getting married in the fall.

Well done, Shmil, well done XD

Chomsky doesn't know how to read.
"Unfortunately, while the (likely malaria infested) save bug has been squashed, the fix isn't retroactive and thus, those who encountered it are out of luck."
