Fantastic value for what you're getting then... if you can still be bothered to play Far Cry 2, that is.

Pretty naff mate. If your expecting a good online shooter like COD, Killzone, battleifeld etc you'll probably be disappointed.

The best DLC they could have released for Far Cry 2 would be the ability to adjust the aim/look controls so they feel like practically every other shooter! The acceleration when turning is set far too high and I believe this is what's killed the game. It certainly had me give up. I loved the game, but the controls are so bad, so uncomfortable I couldn't bare to play it. And the biggest shame of that too is I was prepared to spend plenty of time making some good multiplayer maps. I only made one, a swampy jungle one. Took 24 hours in total (several hours of which were spent testing to make sure it played well). I threw it away when I got rid of the game. The developers made a great game, with a great feature, player-created map making, then throw a pile of seweage over it by getting the most fundamental element so wrong!

Dude, I bought Far Cry 2 a few weeks back and have been playin it ever since, you do know you can turn the control (turn) speed down right?

Anyway, the game is fantastic, lovin every second of the singleplayer, not even gonna bother with mp as people have said it sucks balls, just wish there were giraffes.....I got sold a line on that one!

PS can anyone recommend this add-on?
