However the game spawns enemies in jeeps who come out of nowhere, are impossible to outrun and ALWAYS shoot your car to bits. Then you are left in the situation of being on foot and underfire.... then if you kill them and use their jeep to travel to your destination, everything is quiet for a few minutes then the game goes and respawns another group of enemies in jeeps who shoot your vehicle to bits. It's neverending and made the game unplayable!! I also felt that the whole malaria tablets thing was extremely annoying and detracted from the gameplay. I strongly agree with Jerry S's comments that it just feels extremely repetitive. This could have been one of the best games out there, but sadly falls well short.… Expand

    AFRICA!
    After having played both Far Cry 3 and 4 I have to say that this is my favorite of the three. I might be writing this through my nostalgia goggles, so bare with me. The beauty of Africa is just stunning. There is a lot of variety in the game's world. There is the deep jungle areas, large savannah's, wet swamps and dry desert areas. In Far Cry 3 it was just jungle, jungle, jungle    AFRICA!

    The story and voice acting is decent and oh, the accents. The main villain is interesting enough. And there's nothing better than being victorious after slaying a handful of enemies. Because unlike the later Far Cry games, this game is actually challenging. You have a very limited health and ability to heal. And the battles really feel like battles. The tension is real when you have to hide behind your car when taking fire from all sides. And the music just fits the game and atmosphere perfectly.

    It is still my favorite FPS of all time because of its amazing atmosphere and its attention to detail in the environment. In my opinion this game has the highest degree of immersion ever. For example there is no minimap or other notifications on the screen, no arrows that indicate where the enemies are and no seeing through walls. Instead you have to navigate with a physical map and a compass. It just feels real.

    I would like to see more of these mechanics, but i doubt any of the modern gaming developers will do so. Rather they will make a mass suitably game for the mainstream.

    PROs:

    - highly immersive
    - attention to detail in the environment
    - very good graphics
    - big open world

    CONs:

    - mediocre storyline
    - respawning enemies
    - outpost and patrols keep shooting you every 2 minutes
    - stealth mechanic a little broken

The game is all about portraying the grittiness of a completely broken and colonized country worn to the bone by war and terror. Though the story isn't strong, the game feels fantastic and the world is believable. I still remember how entrancing the world was when I first booted up FC2 and explored. The music is incredibly atmospheric and the environment feels authentic. In my humble opinion, Far Cry 2 is what Far Cry should be. Not a pleasant round of target practice featuring some cult run by a depraved leader, but a serious and challenging game.    … Expand

The stealth mechanic is broken as once an enemy catches a glance of you all enemies will immediately know the EXACT spot where you are and will continue to follow you around until either you or they are dead. The story is dull and virtually non-existant. The characters are all one-dimensional and the voice acting is atrocious; all characters talk extremely fast and sound emotionless.

But it's Africa what steals the show completely. Map, with it dense jungles, shanty towns and open savannas, sets quality level so high that no other game can think of using same environment without being called Far Cry 2 clone.

Many people don't like it because of the repetitiveness, but they just don't have something called 'imagination'. There are hundreds of ways to approuch each mission, here are a couple of examples: - Normal shooting. - Ramming a jeep into the enemies while throwing molotovs through the windows. - Make a fire around their camp, then wait and let the wind blow the fire right into their base. - Snipe enemies and use silencer's to do a secret 'attack'. - Place a bomb onto your vehicle, park it into their base and explode it, causing their base to burst into flames, slaughtering enemies. And the long driving, it's fun for me. For the game I would give a 9, but for myself a 9.5, but with the map editor and multiplayer it defenitely deserves a boost to ten. Make some rally or other race tracks, invite your friends and have fun online! How about a fortress? With the game mode set to defend the camp? There is so much of opportunity in this game!

For me every minute of my 40 hours of Far Cry 2 felt like a chore. Let me just say, however, that I played Far Cry 3 and 4 before I played this one and thoroughly enjoyed them, I even played on hard difficulty for a bit of a challenge. Far Cry 2 I played on easy and found it significantly harder than the others. The script is rushed, the enemies are constantly chasing you down, and you can't outrun them. Stealth very rarely works, unless you only play at night and the enemies are spread out. The amount of times I spent stuck against a knee high rock or trapped between a rock and a tree branch desperately trying to jump or duck my way out ruined the game for me. After finally making it to the last chapter of the game and into the heart of darkness I encountered a glitch which stopped the mission activating and no matter what I did it would not activate. I had to reload a save losing 4 hours of play. Positives are impressive graphics for the time of release and an interesting "villain", even if the script is a little rushed. Overall I would not recommend this game to anyone, unless I hated them. Once I am done burning my copy and participating in some deep breathing exercises I may return to the Far Cry series for Far Cry Primal, but I'm just too emotional for that right now.… Expand

    The graphics and gameplay are still better than some games released in 2020, which is honestly very pathetic. It was way ahead of it's time. Great weapons selection, a bit limited but it compensates for having guns like the explosive arrow crossbow (Fortune's Edition), 8 golden AKs, and of course my all time favourite, the Desert Eagle. Funny, since it's also the only game that finally made the Desert Eagle look good, all other games from that era, except CoD4, made it look like absolute trash.    … Expand

    This is a not a fast paced run and gun FPS.
    It is a slow adventure in an open world setting. You can do missions in any order you like. The setting is ideal for tactical approach of the targets with sniper rifles and silent weapons. It is very realistic with great attention to detail. Strongly recommended for sniping action and hours of gameplay similar to RPG games. Overall a great game!

    i loved the campaign to this game took 20+ hours on easy on infamous now i like the online although some things are frustrating it has user created ranked matches which means you make a lobby and others join which means you can be booted for no reason also at the end of a ranked match u end up back at the main online screen so unlike cod n halo you cant stay in a lobby till the next match

Let me give you an example: If I buy the camoflauge and am crouched in tall grass, behind a tree, in the shade, at NIGHT...a sniper would NOT be able to locate me no matter how hard it tried...in real life. That's not the case in Far Cry 2. Ironically, being crouched in the day time behind a small bush is apparently sufficient cover to hide from a patroling guard. However, if you attempt to stealthfully kill said guard with your machette or a silenced weapon, EVERY guard in the entire area is immediately alerted to your presence. There is no excuse for this game to be so broken. For what it's worth, when the game is working properly, this game deserves a 10 for awesomeness, but when it isn't, it's not even fun.… Expand

You'd be hard-pressed to find a title with more environmental authenticity. The waist-high grass in the savanna sways with the wind currents sweeping over the plains and fast moving thunderstorms rush up on you without warning. If you wanted, you could actually sit and watch massive cloud formations slowly creep by as the sun arcs across the sky before dipping over the horizon, casting some of the most spectacularly replicated lighting effects ever produced in any game.The world is simply breathtaking. The gameplay is relatively easy to pick up, fitting neatly into most recognized FPS conventions. Gameplay does begin to feel a bit stale at times, as the repetitive nature of some missions and almost all transportation leaves something to be desired. Gunplay is a mixed bag with a good variety of weapons that perform to varying levels of adequacy, nothing exceptional here. The weapon degradation system is original and does serve to spice up combat, as you'll never know when a weapon is going to jam up on you, or even fail completely and backfire. Vehicles are sturdy and handle realistically, but are affected by damage quickly. The voicework is competent, if a but hurried, but the writing and casting are spot on. The AI is relatively simple, but effective. Vehicle mounted enemies will use the turret, while the drivers dismount initially use the vehicle for cover before attempting to flank you. Other enemies use similar tactics, scrambling for cover after the first few shots, then some while advance to suppress you and draw fire while other attempt to flank you. With an environmental model so accurate, the key to stealth in Far Cry 2 is following a few essential guidelines. 1) Only work at night. This significantly limits the enemy field of vision. 2) Headshots are necessary. Even with the dart rifle. If an enemy makes noise while he's dying, everybody can hear it. Avoid the machete when multiple enemies are close for this reason. 3) Move after you shoot. Multiple shots form the same spot will expose your position. For any gamer interested in an intriguing story and entertaining gameplay, rest assured that the totality of the package redeems any lackluster components. Not a must-buy, but a definite must-play.… Expand

The scenery is just amazing and the special effects are astounding (particularly the fire effects). The detail put into this game really sperates it from others. Single player has a free to roam concept, and the world is massive (More than 50km2 and no loading). This is the games greatest benefactor and also it's biggest problem. Since the world is so massive, it is often very time consuming to do just 1 mission. It can take ~20 minutes just to get to where you need to go, in a vehicle. Sometimes, you are stuck on foot for a good 5-10 minutes before you can even find that vehicle. On the flip side, the missions are most of the time fun to do and you often find yourself immersed in a huge fire fight sometime during them. Picking what mission to do and how to execute them, also puts a "Fable" like experience into the game. The console versions only have predefined save points, which is a real let down in such a massive world. FC2 also has a real-time day / night cycle and a dynamic weather system. When you get harmed in the game, healing yourself can be a pretty gruesome task. You will be finding yourself ripping bullets out of your limbs, popping broken bones back into place, and sometimes pulling out shrapnel. The multiplayer is another aspect of this game that they made very well. It has a variety of different sized maps (The game even has a map editor). So there are plenty of things you can do with a map, and rarely get that repetitive feel. There is also a decent amount of guns to choose from, and upgrade to, via the leveling system. Sadly, there are not many game modes to select from, and a 16 person cap is very generic. Overall, this game is just stunning and is a must buy.… Expand

As a bonus you have a choice to choose "alternate option" how you want to do this. In most cases you will ignore it because you would have to go to other side of map and then back and then in some cases again across whole map.
    During this, you will have to clean all outposts and patrols you already cleared five or six times so you will be pissed. Honestly, i dont know who though that this respawning will be good idea.

    Another stupid thing is that malaria medicine. Quests for it are all same - go there, kill few bad guys, and give random people passports.

    Side missions for example from Gun Shop are irrelevant.
    Shooting model is pretty good, gun upgrading interesting, diamond currency is kinda weird but okay.
    Story is quite boring (for me), characters uninteresting.

    detalhe legal que percebi bem depois é quando você está na missão e tem duas escolhas onde você tem escolher uma e as placas na estradas nos cruzamentos elas ficam na cor vermelho e verde se não me engano para direcionar.
    Não perca tempo de fazer missão secundária além de ser super repetitivo recompensa é baixo.
    Em alguns momentos deu umas travas mais foi bem pouco pelo tempo de campanha.
    Os inimigos até são bom, sempre estão se movimentando escondendo dificultando, ponto positivo
    É um bom jogo do ano de 2008, se não fosse repetição levaria uma nota 10 facil    … Expand

    Far cry 2 is a good game with a very impressive realism for the time, but it is quite boring and repetitive.

    Whatever happens you'll believe it's a real world and a fantastic setting for the action. It's not as dense or as varied as, say, Oblivion - you'll go somewhere, kill everyone, every mission - but it's utterly convincing and engrossing. [Dec 2008, p.98]

    Combat is thrilling – each weapon packing a solid, vicious blast; movement suggesting heft and momentum. [Dec 2008, p.80]

    Even if I find the multiplayer too staid, I find the possibility of cool user-made levels (via the easy map editor) tantalizing. Like any good Grand Theft Auto, Far Cry 2's overall package makes up for any individual flaws -- enough for it to be on a short list of best FPS games this year -- and so it's fitting to summarize it as...well, GTA: Mogadishu.
