    I don't feel this easy, especially the mission to rescue Olive with a sniper riffle, I failed several times... I think it is because I use gamepad...

    Master difficulty is giving the punks' some unfair (attack) AI making it quiet a challenge at times to master the hordes - other than that it's just a game!

    So, all the people saying the game is easy are liberating outposts without setting off the alarm?

    Definitely easier to disable the alarm first and then take the punks out - however, some outposts use signal rockets to call for backup when the alarm is disabled.

    Rather than make the whole game more difficult, I hope they just add more high-difficulty levels for those that want to use them and leave the existing levels as they are. Some of us less talented players love the game, but don't want to get stuck for a lifetime playing it.

    You can change the difficulty level as you play the game. Like killing the little ink monsters at Citras temple. I had it set on the hardest level Master to kill the ink monster but when it came to the little ones I couldn't kill them so I changed the difficulty level to the easiest one, adventurer.

    Too Hard

    I read a lot of comments on this topic. Too hard for some. Too easy for others. However, what is "Easy" for if it's too hard. For those who find it too easy, then play on the highest difficulty. For some (like me) even the "EASY" is too hard. I'm a GrandPa of 68. I retired a couple years ago, my son said I need something to do so here I am. Just because my reflexes are not as sharp as some younger ones, doesn't mean I don't enjoy a good game. What's the point of "EASY" if easy is too hard. And I'm not the only one that finds FC3, easy, is too hard. I'm stuck and frustrated. Because my reflexes aren't that great, I play the sniper roll, but in some situations, I need more firepower than I'm carrying. Too Bad Farcry3, I WAS enjoying the game.

    Stop mourning - I am just 10 years younger than you and we got gamers here 20 years your senior
    Seriously don't even think about trying FC4 as it is much harder on Easy than FC3 is on Master difficulty

    Na, you're not stuck in the game.. your mind is stuck - tell us what's the problem and maybe we can help?

    Too easy? Yes, it is. My advice is -

    Don't drive anywhere - walk/run only - and no using wingsuit. Hang-gliders are ok.

    Craft no syringes of any sort.

    After taking an outpost, only replenish ammo - nothing more. Take the one free medic kit if present.

    Never buy a single medic kit, syringe, or craft more than one pouch upgrade for ammo & weapons.

    No affluence: Cannot loot crates or steal any money lying around. Only permissible to loot bodies for cash & sale items.

    Restrict yourself to particular weapon/s.

    If not using any mods, ignore the minimap informing where the enemy is. No peeking!

    Take every outpost without triggering the alarm. It it goes off you must retreat and attempt the outpost later.

    + a few more I can't think of right now...

    Difficulty in Far Cry

    That a bit of ********. Sorry to say that but I play FC 3 sometimes and it offers not a low but a pretty good challange, even on lower difficultys. Of Course it can be easy sometimes like many other games, but overall not too easy. I struggle with some mission in this game.
