    For part 2 of this brain teaser: in which Far Cry was that same skin most likely used again?

    In any event it was my first thought when encountering the character.

    Fair enough; Wogah from FC Primal - the one-armed Wenja crafter.

    I swear, first encounter, it was "it's Sam!"

    Regarding #1, #2 and the previously referenced short videos (hope this isn't boring) - given what in theory is the mission of the team, I'd prefer not to make the team any more noticeable by engaging while on the open road, unless it's in self-defense (so indeed #1 makes a whole lot of sense). Those spawning UNIDAD patrols come to mind.

    The scenario where the SBC are harassing civilians on the side of the road, and have resources ... I'm moving the vehicle off the road a bit (on the same side if possible), getting out and from cover sync shooting if multiple SBC. Have the team hold, and then go grab the resources, ever on the lookout for possible spawning trouble roadside. Then back to the vehicle.
    Ideally, when the Ghosts and the Player are not 'Engaged' or 'Hunted'. They would use suppressed sidearms to fire from within the car - roll the windows down and pew pew the marked baddies or the tangos closest, maintaining accuracy, the element of surprise and stealth.

    Ideally.

    Given that the above is an impossibility...just having them acquire targets faster and sync shooting from within the car would be a major step up. That way you and I wouldn't have to stop the car ahead and sync shot from cover. Roll up, pew pew, move on - drive by's the Ghost Recon way.

    I recall clearly the first time I stood on the side of the road, still in civilian clothes (i.e. role playing), thinking what should be my next move, when UNIDAD spawned. Lesson learned!!

    Again, yes indeed some AI tweaking would certainly go a long way.
    The UNIDAD road patrol has often ruined my CTRs...I'm extremely wary as to where I park and bino target area from. I know exactly how you felt

    Yeah, ideally ... and that includes several other aspects of how the AI (both enemy and even team for solo play) have been designed - again given the story scenario that is suppose to be GRW. Subjects which aren't new to most of the folks here in the forum.

    Ahhhh, there you have it then... never even played Primal, throwing sticks and stones has never been my idea of fun.

    Me neither as the thought of a caveman experience simply didn't appeal to me. ......neither did an ancient Egypt backdrop which is why I passed on the last Assassin's Creed. I thought it would be more of the same with the mechanics, etc. ....although I heard it was a good game from some of my friends. After the success of Black Flag, I wasn't impressed with the franchise direction and stopped buying the games.

    Ah, how I miss not being able to simple throw a stone in GRW to distract an enemy ...

    Primal for me was a nice break from normal FC game play - I'm a big bow fan for stealth if available. And to be up front, I acquired the game w/o any cost, otherwise I also would have skipped it.

    The survivor mode was a nice challenge, and it included permadeath - but that was - drum roll please - simply an option and could be played on any difficulty setting.
