I don't like the random car/jeep people. why can't some of them be non hostile? why must all of them be suicidal when it comes to driving?

Virtumonde/Vundo is back, after I supposedly eliminated their existence. This explains why google searches keep getting redirected.

I installed AIM 6. Now, when I press the AIM button, a blank message box pops up with a sole, "OK" button. It won't start. I'm assuming I have to restart my computer.

I installed the latest Java. Now I can't enter the IRC.

Nevermind, I got in. It just took me 10 minutes.

I haven't been here in awhile, but I loved this thread. I'm glad to see it going..

Anyway, It really pisses me off when I leave stuff on top of my car and drive off. I've lost coffee and such before, but today I lost my ipod :x Set it up there while looking for my keys in my jacket, drove off with it still on the roof, drove back and not sure where the hell it went.. *sigh*

I know, every 2 minutes someone attacks you. It makes the game so unfun when you spend more time trying to stay alive from crazy locals then actually persuing the story.

I do remember reading something that said that Ubisoft purposely put small points in the game to prevent the player from blowing through the story (like the malaria medication missions) to try to force them to try other things rather than do only story missions and go right through the game.

They over did it though. I mean when you need to go from point A to point B and face 3 jeep attacks and die on the third one, it gets so annoying I just stopped playing the game all together.

Understandable. one I encountered had a sniper posted on a rock, but when I got within shooting range, he clipped into the rock. He was still shooting at me, but I couldn't inflict damage to him because he clipped into the rock. no amount of explosives or shots killed him.
