I am playing Farcry on the net on multiplayer mode and it seems like i die a lot easier than everyone else (ie - with one shot, whereas when killing someone else it takes 3 or 4 shots for them to die!) Why is this? If anyone can give me some advise or knows of any cheats it would be much appreciated.

n00b, perhaps the mos**t cretinous word every created, if you see someone spout that, jus**t ignore them. Anyone who has to resort to that type of l33t speak is probably an idiot anyway so his insult is pretty much defunct.

You have to watch out for some people, there area allot of, how should word this, complete farking morons online who like nothing better to do than moan, cons**tantly. Bes**t thing to do is to s**tay out of the way, be less conspicuous and let other people take the fall. It's a s**trategy I used when I was an online newbie, jus**t s**tuck behind everyone who looked like they knew what they where doing, kept my mouth shut and got on with playing the game.

Once you've built up you skills, you won't have to put up with people like that, they are easier to ignore though if you try games like Tribes 2 (which you can download for free) you'll rarely see anyone mouth off because the game is so fas**t people rarely have time to react to other players, let alone type out insults.

We where merely jes**ting with you old boy, your wording was slightly amusing and the sheer fact that you mentioned "cheating" and "online" together didn't help you avoid being joked at either. Cheating online cannot only get you banned from servers, but in the case of Unreal Tournament 2004, banned from the game altogether. It's not a simple case of entering "god" in the console either, people who cheat usually use programs ins**talled onto their sys**tems which give them advantages such as seeing through walls, avoiding weapon recoil and so forth. It's not a clever thing to do, even if it's retaliation.

And besides, chances are the people you where playing agains**t have been playing for some time, you can accuse them of cheating but chances are they jus**t no how play better than you, they know the weapon, maps and all the advantages and disadvantages of that particular game. It takes practice to become good; assuming everyone else is a cheater won't help you.

Sounds like a problem with the CD. Uninstall it, restart, install it again, see if it makes a differce. If it does not, contact the developer (should be a website/email adress in the manual) and ask them. Should they not reply within a day or so, of if their reply is not helpful, return the game to the store.

Alright KILLBILL, basically there is nothing wrong, you are just crap. When I started playing Halo mulitplayer I thought everyone was cheating since it took a lot more shots to kill them, i.e a few clips, when they could dispatch me with one clip, if even that much. Just keep playing, practise other people's techniques and you will build up your skill.

I have purchased Farcry but it won't run.
When installing it never asked for the code.
It runs to the end of the first video then cuts to my normal desktop.
My system and drivers are all up to date and other games do run!
Any help please.
