Hi,
I'm about 58% into FC2 (have been for a while, just roaming around killing people :P)and all the way through I've had a really annoying bug - in the armoury when I try to get a gun from high up very often I can't, and it insists I get the one below it. This occurs a lot with the AS50 and the Dart Rifle, and mainly on the first section of the game. Going to another armoury or coming back later fixes it.
Why does this happen? I've heard it is due to the characters having different heights (mine is Marty I think) but that may just be someone winding me up http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
Thanks.

I haven't had this bug on my short run through the SP. In MP, sometimes you cannot pick up ammo or capture the diamond. Opening the console and typing something random fixes this.

Hopefully the upcoming patch will fix your problem.

Yes, that is annoying. Whenever I finish a mission, my first stop is the armory to replace all weapons. Sometimes you have to move back a little or side to side. Another thing that often works is to exchange the weapon you are forced pick up, with one on the ground, or elsewhere on the wall, then re-try.

And, another thing that has worked, is to look lower, below the weapon that you're being forced to pick. I've looked below that weapon, and was able to retrieve the Dart Rifle.

To fix this problem, I go outside and do some knee bends - Crouch and un-crouch a few times. Then I go back inside and I find that I can now reach the top racks.

I've seen this once. I exited the armory, save game, reload the game and it worked. Happened to me just after purchasing the AS50.

I have had this happen several times. Just change you position and move the mouse aound. I had to look down to pick up the top weapon once yesterday.
