[CDiablo]

So, Ive been playing this game for a while and I think its really, really unbalanced. I've been stuck at the first desert level, and I have no idea what to do. The snipers that are so far away that I can barely see them hit headshots %100 of the time while my snipers cant hit guys bodies at half the distance most of the time. I don't think this is any good for normal difficulty level. I can take the first base but once I try to get to the second (I am aware of the sandstorms, walls/tank and trenches that are supposed to protect my soldiers)I get raped by the tanks and a squad of 3-4 snipers that take out my engineers and heavy weapons guys or anyone that gets past the first enemies base line. Every game I expect less and less from what my squad can do. Seeing my a guy take 20 shots from near point blank range and land half only to be return fired and killed makes me want to throw my $400 PS3 through my 2k$ tv.I figure I could grind out levels in skirmish mode, but grinding is gay and I don't really play games that do that. It is very possible that the game is accurately re-creating what would happen if a local militia took on an army superpower.

Another thing that pisses me off is I cannot get any score past C in skirmish mode. I can get through levels without taking more than a few bullets (no casualties) in 3-6 rounds while killing all the enemy and and I get a C. I'm definitely missing something with this game I assume.....unless it is just naturally brutally hard.

I dont care for the majority of dialog. There are a lot of chapters that I just wish I skip, but I want the full game experience. For the record Im not a big RPGer and this is only the 2nd SRPG I have every played so theres quit possibly A LOT of reasons that I just dont get this game.I dont want to head to gamefaqs or anything like that unless its absolutely necessary so Im not sure what to do, but the more I play this game, the less likely I am going to finish it.
