Hi,
First of all, the game is great. Nevertheless, some of the things are very funny, other are annoying, and I was wondering if anybody else noticed similar things:
1. One trooper put his gun on its back with a fancy move, than continue to point his empty hands around, but forgetting to get its gun back. I haven't actualy tried to see if he can shoot empty handedhttp://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif (in the park were you first meet the trigs).
2. A couple of times mercs or trig accuratelly shoot at me while holding their gun pointing toward the floor.
3. Another trooper that defended a glider heard me and come to investigate the area... He kept walking until he fall over the rip. Nice AI. Also, if you blow up the part of suspended bridges, they will not notice the gap and fall throughhttp://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
3. If the troopers fall into the water, they can't find the way to the shore, sitting ducks as they cannot shoot back.
4. Annoyance: two times happened to get into a situation were the enemy died without falling. Mostly, when you come into an area and trigger a battle between trigs and mercs, and than wonder around without join the fight for awhile. When came back to kill the rests, they refuse to fall. Funny, they keep breathing, walking or even jumping in the same spot(a locust). Use the cryvision to differentiate between alive opps and dead oneshttp://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif But it spoiled two beautiful battles (inside catacombs, and at the entrance of the archive).
5. You can actually kill a fatboy bumping it with a buggy two times.
6. Annoyance: the lack of reliable quicksave force me many times to lose the fun of joining the many hot battles of the game. Unless you are willing to risk all the work done so far and go back to the checkpoint. This way, when the save moment do not come for awhile, I tend to creep more than actually move.
Thats all that comes to my mind. Nevertheless, the game is great, I am at Vulcano, just after I cleared the interior of trigs and go for the merc fight at the forth gate... Can't wait to get it donehttp://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)

Good ones. I have seen most of these as well, and wasted some ammo on standing corpses.

Thank God these Mercs have such big mouths. I don't know how many times I was able to survive by killing the last merc in an area (who I didn't know was there) when he saw me first and shouted "He's over here". Who is he talking to?

The weird behavior is not just with Humans. I have also seen Trigens jump into a lava pit and Fat Boys fire rocket after rocket into a rock until they die of splash damage.

It is a great game though.

I notice in the catacombs area, in the room just before you plant explosives, there's an office-style telephone on the floor in one corner.

A little out of place. :-)
