normal, I just do a lot of head shots in general, and yeah it's tearing cause I turned Vsync off lol, game runs like shit with it on, they need to fix some of the stuff for sure.

The AI isn't really good then. The enemies barely do a thing. Waiting there for you to kill them... Unless you're totally out in the open, they can't seem to aim at you at all.

I'm running the game in 1080p, I have a seperate PC that captures it in 720p 60FPS, I wish I could capture in 1080p 60FPS but that shit would cost too much :(

oh and,

yeah I really should have played on hard, I forget sometimes that these really are console games with sugar tops but too late at this point :-/ Just gonna enjoy the puzzle aspects if nothing else.

Soooo I picked it up today.

Its great! Really enjoying it. Its a really pretty game and the controls are spot on.

Every game needs a bow and arrows.

that's an easier one, there are more interesting ones even in the story line, I remember one where I kept jumping at something when I didn't have to and felt like an idiot once I jumped past it and got to where I wanted to be lol..... I call that thinking too much.

yeah, are you using mouse and keyboard too? I generally find console games that have good Mouse and Keyboard controls make the game a lot easier. Dead Space 2,3, or Resident Evil 5, for example.

but, I like the combat a lot (not the bow), using the handgun and shooting them in the leg then hitting them with a rock. Or dodging them and throwing dirt in their face to blind them. But that's out in open more, and jumping from cover after they see you.

But in a lot of places where you can pick people with the bow before they notice (since it's OP-ly silent) and even if you miss they go and look at where you shot.
The AI definitely has some issues though, but it's not as bad as the game before this (Crysis 3) XD..

Arrow to the knee hehe.

Yeah I'm using mouse and keyboard, totally understand that RE5 part since even on hardest difficulty, it was pretty easy lol. I don't throw rocks and dirt so much, if they find me I usually just shoot the shit out of them with guns lol. At certain points when I was really low on arrows, I just changed to silencer pistol(there is one for the machine gun too) to cap people in stealth and that works too.

That's one thing I think people watching vids might think this game is too easy.  They probably are watching a pc gamer.  Thus seeing the person able ot do head shots like nothing.  on a pc, its super easy and quick to get headshots, meanwhile if using a dual analog its well not.  I haven't played this on console or with a controller, but I have played enough shooters on consoles to know this.  

it's quite annoying playing a console shooter.  I find myself trying for heashots too often cause they are so easy to pull off when on a pc, yet due to that I will miss more often than not or take too long and get killed by the opponent by then just shooting me in the chest multiple times.  

I just got done with the healing at the helicopter and having like 20 guys rush you.  It was so easy.  Just picking them off one by one in seconds by doing headshots with my bow and arrow.  the hardest part was when i ran out of arrows and had to switch to a gun.  My accuracy took a big hit cause didn't have any of them advanced at all so the recoil annoyed the hell out of me.  I'd aim at the head with the asasult rifle and thus be instantly shooting way above the enemy.  had to aim at their crotch basically so I could recoil my way up their body.
