Red Dead Bear Anger

I think I've never been so close on throwing my x360 controller into my TV. Red Dead Redemption. Qute good game. But full of glitches which will be fixed by the time the game is a "classic" and got a platinum version already.

So, I've been working on my 100% (which I got as of now) and I was on the Master Hunter - Rank 6 I think (or 7?)

Goal: kill a Grizzly with your knife and skin it. Sounds easy. done it in multiplay already where you got like docens of bears all in same spot....

WELL IT WASN'T THAT EASY.
first I spend like 20 minutes riding around tall trees and surroundings to find a damn bear. when I finally find one I was not even paying attention anymore and he killed my horse and me shortly after.

OK, let's go find that bastard... 20 minutes more seeking a damn bear. seems like the one that killed me went to celebrate, coz same spot and he wasn't there. I found another one...
I hit him... and he starts to run away? WTF? Pussy bear dammit. I spend 10 minutes straight (not even lying) running behind the fucking bastard. Impossible to hit with the knife from behind. Then suddenly he gets into a camp full of boars and I though "hopefully they'll slow him down"... to my suprise the fucking boars didn't attack the bear. Well, ok. they'll probably run off. Nope, not running either... THEY FUCKING STARTED TO ATTACK ME!!! what the fucking hell? Jungle Book Conspiracy or what!!! And dead I am...

15m. later... found another bear... same fucking story again! He runs and runs and runs and runs until finally some boar comes to his rescue WTF! total of another 30m. wasted.

I pause the game, go read some forums and FAQs and guides and what not... nothing really useful. One guy sais you can shoot him into the legs to slow him down and if the final blow is with the knife, it would still be valid. Ok, let's try that.

I'm getting more lucky finding bears. This time only took me fucking 10 minutes. The Benny Hill show begins once more. I hit him into the leg: bullshit slower. He doesn't slow down. Not a pixel. I shoot him again, into the other leg: he fucking DIES!!!!

next 45minutes is a mixture of seeking, benny hill, dying from one damn shot into legs, boars attacking me, me falling down mountains. I wasted like 50 medicines so far, I got attacked by 20 boars, I killed 5 Grizzlies trying to shoot them into the foot and I let a couple of strangers DIE because I didn't go to help them.

In the end... I just got LUCKY. I found a bear (5 minutes), I chased the bear (5 minutes) and I managed to get to his side and hit him a few times till he finally died.

I look at the clock... 2 hours and more had passed... and I was a pixel away from having to buy a new 37" TV.

worst A.I. ever!
