    Game Graphics

    From my stand point it always seems as though I have to keep adjusting where I am looking. It seems as though the default has me looking more towards the ground than straight ahead. Also the field of vision is narrower than I would like.

    Does anyone else have this problem? I would like to correct it. I am using a pc mouse on a Windows 7 64-bit computer..

    I don't quite get it. Move your mouse slightly to look higher. That should do the trick?

    Is this a case of when not doing any activity for a bit of time, Ajay will lower his weapon so that it's pointed even more downward? Versus "at the ready", to be either hip-fired or iron-sights brought up via the right mouse button.

    I think he is talking about the zoomed or narrowed field of view. Then, again, perhaps more info is needed.

    Yes, he mentioned that. Didn't say if he already tried to change it from the options...

    But I didn't get the "looking more towards the ground"-thing.

    I've been trying to rephrase my question or describe what I don't like about the game play graphics. Maybe a better description of my dissatisfaction would be when I enter the Ghale Homestead for the first time and meet Yogi and Reggie. I am drugged and enter an arena. It seems as though I am constantly trying to stand upright and face my enemies when attacked. Either in the arena, in the field by a bird, a pig or one of Pagan's followers. I grapple up a cliff and when I reach the top I am on my knees. I leave the helicopter or whatever and it persist.

    I just want to stand upright and face my enemies with my weapons.

    No fan boy replies please.

    Part of the descriptions are of cut scenes, so nothing can be done regarding how you come out of those i..e., "would like to correct it."

    My experience when getting to the top via grappling, or exiting the buzzer, is that I am standing, and I'd prefer to be crouched, so to be 1. less visible, and 2. not lose portion of body armor/health due to the buzzer's blades should I not land in a perfectly level environment.

    Wait, are you STUCK in crouch mode? I changed my crouch key to be same as Skyrim because that's what I played just before FC4, so I'm not sure but I think the default is shift key. You can check this in the menu where you can reassign the keys. Maybe your shift key is stuck. Oh, wait. You would have been typing all caps if that happened!

    Regarding grappling and being in crouch mode, I have found that if you crouch before you throw the grapple and climb up you will be crouched when you get to the top of the ledge. If you want to be standing when you get to the top, get out of crouch mode before throwing the grapple. Not sure, but same rules might apply for the buzzer.

    That's very interesting, as my experience is that if I crouch to start the sequence, I'm standing at the other end, either via grappling or from the buzzer. I remember trying this when first got the game, and thinking "oh darn" when standing at the end. I wonder if it depends on some other factor that's not readily apparent?

    Just did a test at Rajgad Gulag with the buzzer - approached crouched, then exited immediately - sometimes I remained crouched, other times standing. No consistency that I could determine, and regardless of whether crouched or standing, took body armor/health damage! Just great:
