    It should show you on the screen what letters/buttons to press, you just have to be in time (and not too early ether) or you fail.

    Yep, you just have to "follow the prompts". And, as stated, no dilly-dallying around. When the left-mouse icon pops on screen, you press left-mouse button NOW, not a half-second ago or a half-second from now. When the prompt says to "MASH" some key, mash means repeatedly and quickly hit that key and not HOLD it down. Don't even bother to focus your eyes on the "fight" at hand, hitting the right button/key at the right instance and at the right cadence is all that matters.

    The worst "boss fight" implementation in a game, ever. Who ever thought this one up needs a five year "Time Out" from game development. And so do his superiors who "approved" this concept.

    A bug was preventing the screen prompts to appear for me during the Hoyt fight

    A bug was preventing the screen prompts to appear for me during the Hoyt fight. Very frustrating but I found the solution which was mentioned by somebody else in some other thread: I remapped my main movement and fighting/firing keys to something else and then remapped them back to what I like. So I mapped fire and aim to something other than left and right mouse then mapped them back. I mapped ADWS and crouch and jump to something else and then mapped them back.

    After doing so I went back to the Hoyt fight and ALL the on screen prompts appeared during the fight and I killed his *** on my first try.

    I saw several people write in a different thread that they had to give up on the game because they could proceed no further... try what I did, it worked for me.

    These sequences are probably the stupidest things in the game. I do hope they don't put this crap in FC4.
