Flying in Shangri-La is HELL

[SirAser[ScopeEye]]

Hey ppl ..i really need your guidens here...

Im in Shangri-La now and completly STUCK at the flying-part in this game.

For some reason i CAN'T turn fast/hard enough, to avoid smashing into the stonewalls ..and i believe i have been tryin everything i know of ...i must admit, that i have been so lost, so i was even trying to use a freakin XboX-controler(maybe that would make the turning mit-air better/faster?!?) ..something i would never use under normal circumstances!

But nothing i tried, have solved my problem, so im quite desperate... HEEEEELP!!!

No solution, but I feel ya...

Yeah...I'm with you...just tried...several times...to do the flying one...I rage quit...I don't use a controller...all keyboard and mouse for me...but it's frustrating as H E double hockey sticks...I'm going to shut stuff off and relax for a bit and hit it new again tomorrow...and I bet I'll rage quit again....

I suppose you're talking about the 3rd Shangri-La mission, which you sorta have to 'fly' to your objectives? Yea I agree that one is kinda annoying. At the end I have to memorize the route by trial and error and pre-turned as much as possible.

But in some videos i see on YouTube, the yturn incredible fast ..and its just impossible for me, in my game, to turn that fast ?!
I was hoping it would come down to some special abilities or skills, that i diddent learned yet ..that i was somehow a little too early on and therefore had to learn the skills first, before i could do it...
Man... this is killing me..!
But thx for the answers

PS: atleast.. is it possible, to slow down the speed, without landing??

This was the most frustrating mission in the entire game for me. had to play it over and over just to memorzie where to go so that I could do it blindfolded. It sucked rocks.

Hmmmm, sounds interesting! I've not got that far yet.... flying is the s**t

[RageMojo]

You land. i got stuck at this part too. Dont try to fly between the arches. Land instead and walk to the end, there will be another launcher pad.

yep it was tough, but i liked it it was fun.....LOL

[CursedPanther]

Flying in Kyrat is fun. Flying in a predefined path like a platform game is not fun however.

It was hard as nails, but stick with it. I think it took me like 5 tries but eventually you hone your line enough to squeeze through.

wait til ya hit he wiliis mission umm i had to plug in a game pad ..took over 50 trys ..and a day ..till i got it ..but yes Shangri-La is HELL

[SirAser[ScopeEye]]

Just ironic, that figthing every other enemy there, is a simple "a walk in the park", compared to this non-figthing simple thing as flying from one place to another..!

It's ok some people aren't good at gaming. Practice.......... Good luck!

[SirAser[ScopeEye]]

If it only came down to that...

LOVE that comment, because its true! its like someone who only plays driving games complaining that fight sequences are too hard. The object of being a gamer USED to be to be as well rounded and capable of playing ANY game as possible, these days however its about just caring about the game being "fun" (in quotes because too many people seem to think anything idiotic is "fun" and therefore worth calling a "good" game) and if they suck at it dont sit there trying to improve your skill set.. oh nono! Get on the forums and start crying about how the game is "too hard" and this or that needs to be nerfed.

I miss the good old days.. when 80% of the population wasnt calling themselves "gamers" because it wasnt a particularly cool thing to be.

I was dreading this mission based on the comments, but I just went through it without too much trouble. I did make a wrong turn a couple times and end up outside where I was supposed to be.

The main tip I can offer is try to keep the yellow target roughly centered, but don't focus on it too much... The main thing you need to do is fly over the swirling leaves, they give your altitude back.

Good luck!
