    Stuck in the intro detected

    In short: When I'm escaping the camp in the beginning, pirates keep detecting me when I head into the weed bushes.

    I've played the entire game overall about five times, completely fine.
    However when I started a new game now, normal difficulty, Grant tells me to hide in the weed bushes and I do like always,
    but the pirates detect us and shoot before we even get to the middle, failing the mission.
    I tried this more than a couple of times from the last savepoint and they detect again and again, right when we get into the bushes. I changed the difficulty to easy and got detected two more times. I quit the game and I'm going to sleep on it, highly frustrated.
    I've been detected by the dogs once and by the pirates near the bushes once before in previous plays but not relentlessly like this. I'm hoping that next time, starting a whole new game again, I'll get safely through the annoying little bit.

    I wish more than anything to be able to skip the intro and 'tutorial', especially if the game's already played through at least once. I know it's a part of the story but for goodness' sake.

    -Is there another choice than restarting the whole game?
    -Is there a specific way to position next to Grant while approaching the bushes if starting over doesn't work?
    -Has something similar happened to you?

    I think the pirates are pretty numb in the tutorial scenes (and in general) all provided you *crouch* when approaching them - maybe clear/delete the cache folder can help?!
    Just stay a little behind Grant and you should be fine.
