A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words...
My bro and I were playing through FarCry, and ran into some.... interesting situations. One of the game's selling points is the ragdoll physics that even apply to enemies you've already killed - no more enmies' bodies intersecting each other at your favorite killzone.

Anyway, so.... yeah. Check these out:

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Heh.

Doesn't really beat the time I walked round a corner in Far Cry straight into a merc....as he emptied an M4 into his own right foot.

Hooray for ragdoll effects!
Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

Rag doll physics = :ick:
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Dude, that's just wrong.

I still can't forget the time I grenaded a bunch of merc's and they all went starfishing through the air in perfect union and landed in the water one after another... lols

Reminded me of syncrnized diving. Hehehe.

Too bad FS2 doesn't create any funny moments like this... :p

I just remembered a line the merc's occasionally say while looking at those pics.

"I'm gonna shoot you in the face!"
