Here's a quick rundown.
- Started all cocky on Experienced
- I don't know what I'm going into so I create a "rounded" team to cover any situation
- Created a team of 4 for a week - Brain (lock), Red (demo), Spider (doc), Scream (killer), and Henning as my 1 day ace-in-the-hole killer
- Was fired upon the moment we dropped into the northwest corner of the map near Omerta
- Couldn't get past the swampy-forested I was dropped into, this happened 4 times, wiped the whole crew before I could even get to the buildings
- Tried variations of running, crawling, crouching, rushing-in, or hanging back and waiting for the enemy to come to me while prone
My guys can't seem to hit the broad side of a barn unless they're right next to something, even when using up as many points as possible for the shot, but the enemies are marksmen at 100 yards.
- Changed to Novice
- Kept the same team figuring it's still a decent plan, just that I am doing something wrong, I mean the first gunfight shouldn't be THIS hard on Novice
- Pretty much the same experience
Part of me wants to think the game is just really hard. The realistic part of me thinks that I just suck. Another part wonders if there's something I just don't understand about the game that isn't obvious even after reading all of the help info before even trying to fight.
Any tips, suggestions, etc? I don't want to cheat or exploit anything. I also don't want to follow a guide that says "You must choose THESE guys for this mission". However if the game is that strict about who you choose, I should probably give it up right now.
