I just started playing Crysis 2 on Hard. My guy seems to be a total wrecking machine, but on the other hand, I pretty much am getting blown away by guys that are 100 yards away. I don't have a sniper rifle, and the zoom on the guns I do have are decent, but not great. So I'm finding myself taking cover and engaging in white knuckle shootouts with about half a dozen guys as I move from space to space. If I get caught in the open, it's pretty much over... which sucks since there is no save feature and the checkpoints can be spread out.

It's fine- it's a way to play a game... But I'm hardly Rambo or Master Chief running and gunning. Am I playing this game right?

My new projector has a little input lag, so I'm not sure if the game is difficult on its own, or if my new projector is making it more difficult than it should be.
