IIRC the gold version of the guns that were hidden all over the map were rustproof and ran perfectly without any malfunction. Edit : A quick google search seem to show I was wrong, there is only few golden AKs and they decay like every other guns, but at a much lower rate. I was pretty certain I saw a golden Desert Eagle but it must be from another game around the same time (more than a decade ago...holy crap time goes fast).

Honestly even on 360 Far Cry 2 still looks great. Animations are janky and the gameplay loop isn't anything to write home about, but over all I still like this game more than 3 or 5. 2 feels like art with actual love and effort put into it, while the later games all follow a formula and are lower quality in some aspects than even 2. I still miss the weapon degradation. It should have just been dialed back a bit rather than being totally removed. The buddy/history system is also great. I prefer it over the Guns for Hire in 4 and 5. I also never minded the Malaria thing. It never felt that intrusive, and it gave me new missions to do in a very natural way whenever I needed more pills. The fact that outposts respawn basically the moment you leave was my biggest complaint.

@@someblackguy7371 In harder difficulties u can never drive ur way out from gunfights, long drives are not an option, the bullets do enough damage to render ur vehicle immobile immediately, so u can never make it driving sim even if u wanted to. Game would force u to take detours, learn interconnected off roads, patrol patterns of vehicles to ambush them. You are supposed to learn the terrain, it is filled with shortcuts and beaten off roads interconnecting bits of whole map. And traversing through the terrain is fun, filled with hidden diamonds that has fun parkour, jackal tapes with cool VA, unmarked enemy supply camps, safehouses and great ambient noises to really build the atmosphere. Figuring out the best and most efficient paths to ur objective is half the fun instead of braindead driving through roads. And even if i was following the main road, it was always filled with well planned ambushes of patrolling vehicles with my AK, just an ak would safely,quickly kill of vehicle gunners. I spent like 10x more times on feet than driving in every playthroughs. The only design failure was giving the game an easy mode and making the normal difficulty way too easy. Not to mention in easier modes they give u too much ammo capacity and way high medpacks capacity and enemy bullets dont do any damage. In higher difficulties u will be killed by patrolling vehicles by mounted gunners even before u step out of the car and u cant just drive through enemy checkpoints through roads, they will kill u and do enough damage to render ur vehicle immobile, or chase u down to death, or most cases u will be caught off guard by another patrolling vehicle mid-chase from the opposite direction and just get gunned down while in the vehicle from both sides. If u manage to drive away by sheer luck u wont have enough supplies for the main objective. Dark souls and Doom eternal devs had balls to force u in a engaging and fun zone, fc2 devs werent ballsy enough and allowed to ez pz difficulty and let ppl get away with it ruining their fun

The gun mechanic, the physics, the gameplay detail, etc, many thing about this game is a perfect gem.

Here are some options: 1: put on a bullet proof vest and helmet and try to sprint past them 2: put on SCP-1499 and vanish and wait for them to walk away 3: lure them to SCP-173 or 106 4: put on the super gas mask, run past them and get shot then bandage up (risky and hard to do) 5: put on the super gas mask, run past them and heal with a cup of estus 6: ingest a cup of god and temporarily become invincible and run past them 7: run away

As for gameplay variety, if you know how to use all the mechanics and manipulate the ai, there is endless opportunity for creativity to be had here, which is more than you can say for the much more scripted nature of the mechanics in later FC games, no matter how many varieties of scripted gameplay sequences they put in there.

I remember this game. Fuck it was so good back in the day. You could make your own levels and maps. Idk if you can even do that on the last 3 farcrys. It was better than halos forge mode. I swear the most fun I’ve had in an FPS was the community made maps.

I finished this game 2 years ago, the plot is basically the movie blood diamonds where Leonardo dicaprio is there. The gameplay is nostalgic and basically prequel to far cry 3. The game is LONG just as you think it's ending, BOOM THE MAP IS DOUBLED AND EVEN MORE STORY AWAITS. Its really good, Must Try

I remember playing this after beating the first one and being confused that it had nothing to do with the first game, I learned way later that Jackle is Jack and the reason they want you to kill him isn't because he's a arms dealer but because he still has the documents and serum from the first game. Its a bummer that none of the other games have anything to do with the first game and you never see any Trigens in any other game or even hear about them.

Far cry 3 is short and sweet, Far Cry 2 is the best.... if you don't want to complete it's single player. Honestly 2 is tolerable JUST to play the game ignoring the single player existed because if i do something 100 times it lost it's specialness, something far Cry 4,5, and 6 forget what made 3 special... because it was short.

@@justinfourie3422 lol clearly you haven't played either, Far Cry 3 had pretty astounding First person animations, NO respawning enemies, and legit wild life, and unlike 2, 4, 5, and 6... it knows when to end, and unlike Call of Duty, it doesn't drag. The Story of far Cry 3 have actual tension and a "Show don't Tell" vibe, Far Cry 2 is pretty much "lecture, lecture, and more lecture" and Call of Duty have Third person cutscenes, unless you're playing older Cods then it's "oooo look at my LOADING SCREEN texts!"

@@someblackguy7371 mate I've played every single far cry game with the exception of Primal and 6. I just didn't finish the 1st one cause it was too wonky. You cleary haven't played 2 because it is literally not "lecture lecture lecture". It's gunplay is far better than 3, guns actually feel like guns, enemies aren't bullet sponges (much like CoD), there are far more mechanics hidden inside 2 than 3. The only parts where 3 has 2 beat is the world size, wingsuit and graphics. 3 is overrated as fuck and is not the best far cry game by any stretch

Drraaaaags. the Flavor LOST it's taste 2 hours in. 3 is overrated because it DESERVES to be overrated like DOOM, it EARNS it because it KNOWs when to end and when to NOT ....waste, your.. time. Far Cry 2's "open world" is a SIMPLESTIC maze, "oooo should I take... the left path? or right?" yeah such thought provoking level design... not really, Honestly Far Cry 3's open world is IGNORABLE and their campaign is STILL Linear, and that linearity actually makes stuff FUN and honest, Ubisoft games were BETTER linear anyway... look at OLDER games like Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six... exactly.
