I have really been enjoying this game but have gotten stuck on the knife fight sceen of the Unhappy Reunion mission of Story. I have tried every suggestion on this forum and on other forums and am still unable to beat Buck in the knife fight. I can get through as far as when I am knocked down and get up but then I just get killed no matter what I try.
The only prompt I get on the screen is to hold the right mouse button even though I understand that I need to use a right mouse, left mouse, spacebar combination. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
Maybe you're problem is that you are "holding" the mouse button(s). Don't do that. Just give a quick "click" when prompted. On the spacebar prompt, if it says "MASH", that means to repeatedly hit the space bar. You have to find the right cadence for that. Too slow and you will fail and die. I find I have to hit the spacebar very rapidly (unless it says to HOLD). I also was just on my 3rd play through and in the knife fight with Buck scenario, one of the mouse prompts failed to come on screen on my first two attempts and Buck killed me. I think that was because I was over anticipating and hit a mouse button before the prompt appeared, so the timing was off. Timing is critical. Wait for the on-screen prompt and click the mouse button immediately when it appears (no holding it down, not even for a fraction of a second).
The fix for me to make it through the knife fight of Unhappy Reunion was to set my control settings back to default. After I did that, I was able to see all of the screen prompts and made it through. The order of the prompts was R Mouse, L Mouse, L Mouse, repeated spaceber taps, W. Without the screen prompts, I would not have made it.
There is no such duel scene(s) in FC4!Originally Posted by Sergey69_on_u Go to original post

I agree Sergey69_on_u. FarCar3, I thought, was one of the most mature first person shooters I've played until I got to this totally unreasonably difficult scene. I don't see the logic behind it. I was glad there were none of those dumb 'beat the boss' exercises in order to complete a level until this BS. What's up with that Ubisoft?
When I played through this time I didn't get the "W" prompt after the "Mash SPACE" prompt, no matter what my setup was. I had to watch a YouTube playthrough to see what the next prompt was. It worked fine when I did that, but there was literally nothing on the screen to direct me.Originally Posted by d214p Go to original post
So, if you're stuck on the SPACE mash, hit "W" when Buck's face gets a scared look.
