Wednesday, September 29, 2004I know, I know, you don't wanna hear me prattling on even more about playing Farcry, but tough... coz I'm gonna :-PUp till now I'd rather gotten into the swing of the two main settings. You're either stalking through the jungle (I take a very stealthy approach, down in the grass hunting each enemy soldier individually) or working your way through bases and scientific research centres (these sections are very reminiscent of the film Aliens.) So tonight I was rather caught by surprise and had to adapt my playing style accordingly. There's this river you have to get down, and I tried for several hours to sneak along the banks on foot, but after several hours of getting shot to shit I tried a different approach. I stole a gunboat and went storming down the river at top speed. Now this in itself is nothing special, but after a time there's a pontoon bridge placed across the river with machine guns covering it from multiple angles. Solution? Charge at it in the boat at full speed, and as you hit it, the boat takes off, but always explodes when it hits the water, so the trick is to jump out of the boat while it's in mid-air, land in the water, and then swim for your life underwater till you find cover. Much fun, and quite refreshing. In non-game realted news, I've been helping a friend (who's just bought a house) to decorate the place. It has to be said, I don't like painting at all, but for free beer and the oportunity to laugh when she gets paint all over her arse, it's been quite entertaining. Anything else happening? Nope... not a sausage. Sleep, computer, slapping paint around. Any normal person would be bored senseless, but I'm rather loving it at the moment. Labels: games Steve 7:53 AM [+]
