This game pwns. Sort of a cross between Morrowind and Operation Flashpoint in terms of gameplay insomuch as it is an RPG but has good FPS elements so if you can't shoot straight or sneak into a base unseen you're fecked no matter what your stats say. Big areas, great jungle, excellent plot. Bread says worth a go.

Dont agree dude.
Its more a GTA wannabe than a RPG.
The idea is great, but the final result isnt that good.
My main complaints about this game:
*Bad AI.
-A Gov Helicopter crashes, not youre fault, but you get the negativ reaction.
-People whit guns can sometimes just start shooting at you even if you havent done anything and also they sometimes dont shoot at you when you are shooting at them.
-AI driving. If youre on the country road and stop some times the peps driving behind you wont stop. So they just ram you and start driving in circals around the area they hit you since the "lose there way"
-Shoot a driver in a one way street the next ai driver behind him will just crash into the house on the left and keep ramming it.
- and so on........Its like beeing in the "FunnyFarm" country where everyone are loonies :)
*Engien.
-You need a REALY good computer to run it well.
It dosent run good at all on a p4 2.6 1024 Ati9800pro.
-Not that good animations
-Missing voices when talking to peps.
-Script issues...Allot of em.
*Gameplay
-My biggest issue here so far is that there are no areas where peps/factions belong to. So if you become a enemy of one faction (gov, crimenals, rebels etc) you will meet them EVERY WHERE. You may say "thats life", but Rebels close to a Gov camp. Or every "criminal" having a psyhcik link so the start shooting the moment they see you? Makes the game a bit dumb if you ask me.

I love the game and can live with the bugs, but it gets repetative all over if you need money. You kill a named guy in a camp, the next day he's there again :( It's really a good game concept, only not worked out properly.. if you run trough the jungle you come upon a patrol every once in while always the same dialog, the stupid tiger that kills you within 2 seconds and you cant shoot it how good your aim is and crap like that... lets pray the upcomming patches take the bugs away :)

I found the best way to make money is selling ammo. Looting weapons is no good cos they weigh a lot, but ammo is worth 1 peso per round, so you can get loads of cash in if you go on a couple of Scarface style massacres.
