In the second mission where I have to be an AT insurgent and must destroy 5 tanks:
 
I fired 3 ATs. Got 2 extra from an ammo dump.
Killed a man guarding the route to the 2 last tanks I have to destory.
After getting his ammo I don't have my US automatic rifle in my hands. My hands look like I carry the rif;e but I don't see it.
However I can should - I see a cross. Yet when I use my visor nothing shows at all and I don't know where to should.
Again I can should shot, but I can see the file.


After getting an AK from a dead enemy I can see the weapon visually.

Of course the AK is'nt better for good aiming.

Since the menu, the game engine has a horrible bug: the sky is twinkling pieces in black and white. when the mission is in sunset, the twinkling pieces are yellow. by the way, sometimes, suddenly, the entire screen looks a bit more dark, and backs to the normal color scheme, except the sky, obviously.
