Is this game really that difficult?

[zl_POIGNANT_lz]

I looked at reviews and forums for this game, and everyone complains about the difficulty even on easy. I've played the game for arounf 4+ hours on meduim and i've gotten pretty far. i've gotten to the archives level with invisible trigens. But the the difficulty curve isnt that high. Ive enjoyed the time and ive died probably around 70 times(spent around an half hour dying on the same level and same spot, wasnt even angry). But i continue playing and I enjoy it very much. Am i just a patient gamer who doesnt mind changing my strategy or trying new things? Is everyone just a child who is used to the cawwadooties holding their hand and doing the "shoot and clear" cliche the entire game? This isnt some cinematographic point and click shooter like everything is now-a-days This is an actual video game. But why the hell does everyone compain about the game that actually lets you choose your strategy and actually poses a challenge?

I am not a child who whines about a challenge,a like a game which presents a good difficulty.I like this game and have gotten really far,the mechanics and the graphics in this game are fantastic.I am playing it on medium difficulty,and for the first time.Some people just whine because they are used to easy games,not hard core ones like these are.It isn't so hard as well really,there are health supplies and armor in a lot of places.

The game pushes you manage situations in some ways and if you follow directly the advices then the difficulty can be quite higher than by using some other alternate ways to manage the same situations.

The second problem is the stealth system need be learned and it requires some time of experimentation and practice. Until you have naturally learned it better then the game is quite harder. But once you get it, it is less hard, at Normal difficulty.

The last point is we are used to too much hand guiding and when there's less, it can lost some players, at least during some time. And when it happens it makes them look the game much harder than it is really.

At normal difficulty it's a fair difficulty level, no way it's a very difficult game as can be fps like Serious Sam or even Painkiller at Normal difficulty. But there's a learning curve. And I think higher difficulty levels can be quite extreme.

I nearly always play on hard difficulty in games because i want to say I've beaten the game at the highest difficulty.....but Far Cry is the only game that has caused me to restart the game playing on normal difficulty. The hardest difficulty level (realistic i think its called) is an enjoyable challenge upto level 15 or so but after that it becomes ridiculously hard..insanely hard. It felt like....dead, restart, dead, restart, dead, restart.

I like a challenge but when the challenge is frustrating and not enjoyable then its time to drop the difficulty level. It really does make you want to punch a hole in the wall! I can't remember exactly where I got upto, i think it was the swamp level but it was near impossible to do and had to restart the whole game just to finish it. I even struggled on the last level on normal difficulty.

Far Cry is without a doubt the hardest fps i have ever played.

This game's not enjoyable neither challenging at realistic difficulty. 1.4 patch has broke AI so they can see you from the most walls as well as shoot at you (there's unofficial patch 1.41 for fixing it), and stealth is barely possible. In most circumstances AI is able to one shot you without or even with armor and also warned of all your movements from the far distance. It's like fighting against obviously cheating program - possible but not enjoyable. For best experience you better pick up easy to medium difficulty without AI auto balance.

its 3000 times harder than farcry 3

I've played the game though at least 10 times on the hardest difficulty. You will die, but it's far from impossible. The only level that is arguably "unfair" is the bridge on volcano which kind of relies on adversaries getting trapped in the terrain where you can hit them. The AI is fantastic, giving great variation and it's possible that someone or something will get the drop on you occasionally. Bear in mind that in cover you are almost invisible, headshots are your friend, choose the right weapon, and use the scopes. But this game is great. You'll love it. Trust me.

Yeah Normal difficulty FC1 is easy in comparison of any SS at Normal difficulty except perhaps the last but I'm not sure.

good, because if right now at 'challenging' difficulty im having rather an easy time, farcary 3 is going to be a cakewalk of bordom.

as for farcry1, it's hard compared to common, and i love it. the need to improvize, be stealthy, make sure to use the right weapon at the right time easily makes this one of my favorite FPS

There's a Far Cry 3 mod, Ziggy that allows adjust the difficulty, it has multiple setup for multiple difficulty levels. Its Nightmare option is meant to be very difficult, so stop complain on Far Cry 3 difficulty, you would try this mod if that was really important for you.

For me, I increased the difficulty level as the game progress, and for now it's fine for me, but I agree there's something not well tuned in Far Cry 3.

I have Ziggy's....the only thing it made more complicated was crafting....which became an annoyance because you needed so much more to craft, well, anything.

This game isnt difficult at all , just learn to stealth. And in some situations just die trying. Some parts of the game dont require skill just luck to get through. Also try out different spots in a level to take out enemies.
