No, I'm not going emo rage and leaving the forum. I'm just Frankie raging at Kane & Lynch right now. At this point, I've gotten up to Freedom Fighters, the chapter that is set in Havana, and it's quite possibly the most frustrating video gaming moment I have EVER faced. It's more frustrating than the Veteran mode of Call of Duty 4, but I expected that to be hard. I'm playing this chapter on the NORMAL difficulty, and it's so hard it's not funny. Sure I can start it out fine and get past the first few checkpoints, but once the Choppa comes in, it goes downhill from there. This is one of those times where I had to use an FAQ to get past a certain situation, and it's NOT helping!
The FAQ told me to go to this broken building, kill a few guerrillas up there, blow up two Jeeps with Rockets, and use the Monument for cover. I can do most of this just fine, but once I get to the Monument, it becomes hell in a hand basket. I keep trying to keep my guys in check and make sure they don't run out into the open, but when one of them needs a shot of Adrenaline, I have to get out of cover and administer the shots, which makes me a huge target because now the AI has you on their mind! By the time I give them the shot, I'm the one in need, so I get my shot, get back in cover, BUT OH HO HO HO, ANOTHER ALLY NEEDS A SHOT OF ADRENALINE!!!! So now you have to go out of your way to administer the shot, but then the AI once again concentrates on you, and you die, so an ally gives YOU a shot of adrenaline, only to find out that you've overdosed AND THEN YOU GOTTA START THIS WHOLE PART BACK FROM SQUARE F***ING ONE!!!!!!!! YOU THINK THIS IS FUN??? ARE YOU GUYS GETTING KICKS OUT OF MY PAIN TO SIMPLY TRY AND BEAT A GAME THAT I WANT TO SEE THROUGH TO THE END?
