^^Somebody answered it already. Have you changed the controls ? If yes, then change them back to default and it will solve it. Download and install 1.01 patch for FC2. It will solve the remapping problem.
Far Cry 2 --> Not just another over-hyped game

hi all...
i am on 8600 gt m on my laptop ..
the thing is at default the video setting are DX9 and some resoltuioin and the game plays welll...
but when i switch it to DX 10 ... everthing lags ... slows like hell ... i dont know wehter its due to my modded GFX driver for my 8600 M GT
anyway here is about the game
i finished crysis ... so y expectations were high for this game...
the AI is stupid .. compared to crysis ...
the game looks real but not that flushed with green as we have seen in crysis ... os the whole Africa theme .. even though a good idea ... sometimes make u feel or atleast me feel like i have been playing the game in a desert or some poorly developed game graphics..
the game just for 4 hours itself has become boring for me ... i dont know ... it just felt for me that its another FPS game with same theme as many used to come ...
i still have to agree with the new things they have bought in ... like jamming of the gun and other things .. but wht is the use ??/
the landscape is vast and now itself i would have traveled more distance than playing the game....
crysis was top notch .. and greenish ... and we had full power with that suite...
anyway will play the game for some more hours and see whether my inital opinion changes .... lets see..

The only good thing about the game was the landscape.

The main problem of this game is that it has been names "Far Cry 2". If it had been any other name then most probably we wud have liked it. Far Cry was the best at that time and no one can recreate it now.

^^The main problem of the game is repetitiveness.
Title and developers are secondary to the gaming experience.

Things that irritated me:-
1) Enemies regenerate, If u kill enemies at a place, and then come back after sometime(not even 5 mins), just take a round of about 1 km and come back, u ll find em super alive....that was irritating.
2) Exxxxxaaaaaactly same Safehouses, undergrounds, APR and UFLL offices, the way they talk and all....blah
3) 50 sq km .....great......but all of the same copied....booooooo.....its like visiting one place again and again, same trees, same stones, ....
4) The day night cycle shouldve been little faster( Clear Sky's was a bit better in speed), and the DUNIA engine, the trees are supposed to grow wen u shoot-n-cut them. i cudnt observe it.
5) It wud have been greeeeeeeat if railways were working.
6) The diary shudve been on screen(like map) too...and thr shud ve been different "quit" menu without diary features.
7) Underground missions were not so necessary.
8) Friends call u only wen u r given a mission(main mission), cudve been better if they call us for help(wen we r not at mission).
9) Somewat repetitive and kinda dull story.
10) Enemies again. very very poor AI, they look somewhere even with u in front of them, and even u use sniper, they all get informed at once.i still think Far Cry AI was lot better.
11) Soundtrack is good, but wen enemies are around it turns rapid, that cud be alarming us.
12) I didnt like hidden dimonds thing. It is the most repetitive part.
Good Points:-
1) FC2 successfully gives the feeling of Afrika and jungles and deserts.
2)The water looks great, really one of the best ones i ve seen. though rain effects cud be better.
3) inclusion of repairing, malaria tablets and healing friends is good.
4) Map within the game is very good.
5) Every time of the day is very well shown. that is, morning really feels morning, same with noon and evening.
6) Guns wear down as we use them, it was good, the rust and all...wow....and did u try shooting at ammo pile, it ignites the ammos.
Thats as much as i can think of now:
Please add more points

^^All your negative points are correct.
I will like to add one more to the positive :-
The game is one of the best optimised to come out in recent times.

Finished the game today, ending was better then the story. It was a bit unexpected. Act 3 is exciting.

offlate around 58& complete it has become painfully slow. Why? Is my graphics card has gone crazy or some other thing.
