it is the second diamond that's inside a container box which you have to go through a bus first to get into it. i get to it but i cannot open it. i press E over and over and nothing happens. also the little hand telling you to press E does not come up.

Think its a bug

It happened to me several times also. I had to go to its front left side and play with the stance to get the hand to show, Definitely a bug. Also I can't seem to find the diamond at the slaughterhouse. I know almost exactly where it is I just can't see any green led while I'm near the spot.

i also noticed sometimes the green light in the GPS starts blinking only right when im over the case, and somes times its blinking way before i get to a case :Q :confused:

also ONCE i cleared out a checkpoint and i came up behind one guy that was hiding, he turned and ran and threw his gun at the ground :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

have you seen bad guys buddies come pick them up and thrown them over their shoulder and try and get them to cover? I watched a guy crawl from an open area to behind a door, and shortly there after another baddy came and picked him up and hid him

I have another one:

Funny some diamonds are not in your map but they appear on mine. Check the central section surrounding Pala, you should have two diamonds at Fresh Fish(only one on my map also but remember that the first diamond you are taking after your first mission is done, from the compound) and one by the tracks at the slaughterhouse( I couldn't find it ). I'll check yours tomorrow for other differences. Perhaps it's best to use both of them...

Anyone has the Southern District map?

man this game it too F'ing big, i think ill stop playing way early since the game is so big. ill get bored in a few weeks. and i bet i wont even have maybe 25% of the game done. some people complain about small games, and want HUGE maps, but for me, the bigger the map the more lazy i get :p

There is a video issued by Ubisoft highlighting this thing. Actually they are recommending that you injure a merc only and as soon as the others notice him down they are coming to help so you could have multiple targets without moving the rifle even. That's pretty cool actually.

Thanks man. I played it already once and it took me a week( normal diff). I started three days back again( insanity) and I'm already at the mission before the last in Northern District( I have to kill the UFLL main guy).

This time I took my time with the diamonds though. The first time I only found 120 briefcases in total

damn ive only played it a few hours in real life. so far the only real mission i have done was in mokuba and assisted michele and some other house near there. and then ive just done gun missions and destroyed so far 2 gun transports. ive spent most of the time looking for diamonds ,getting guns, and unlocking the safe house for no real reason since you can just Quick Save

I'm not able to heal any of my buddies on insanity. Whenever I approach them, the gun is selected and I can only kill them to go ahead. It seemed to work fine on normal diff. I already killed three of them and I have half the game ahead of me. Most of the time they get hurt just as soon as I reach their location and can't help them much. I'm not sure if it's a bug or that's how it is supp to be.

Also if the AA is selected in the game the tree branches look like huge cabbage leaves what do you think of that?
