Well - according to my spanking new strategy guide - "easy" greatly increases the game's autofocus - that's probably why you're making those distance shots with ease. ;^)
But the game (well - I've only gotten to Ravensholm...) doesn't seem that hard - very well done, yes, but not the immediate smack in the head that "Doom3" was. You'll end up redoing sections after being surprised, but so far everything seems easily beatable with a little thought and health seems plentiful.

I got the game through steam friday night. by sat am i was playing it. all I can say is wow. I love the physics. my son was watching me play yesterday when I got on the airboat. i'm still on the airboat. i dont mind the length of that chapter, but I know some (maybe not on this list) have complained about that. we were both laughing during some of the more intense action, when it was all i could do to keep the boat pointed in what I thought was the right direction. i am playing on easy, so I have a question. is the pistol excessively accurate at super long distances on the harder levels of gameplay? i find i hardly need the smg, because i can kill guys and blow stuff up from extra-long range in some cases. my only beef. oh, that and it has crashed to the desktop like three times. dont know what's up with that. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Ihrig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 22, 2004 7:17 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Got my Half-Life 2 Package! i am running in to heavy load times on the cuts sceans as well as server lag on the 2nd to last chapter of the game... i have 1 gig of ram as well as a 6800gt have modified my start up line with "-heapsize 512000" to make use of more ram, but the new lag is killing me now.... my stoopid marine squade are to dumb to be trusted with weapons. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:137340 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
