    Playing on Ps3,and Ive tried 50 damned times to get past guy underwater-keep pressing "mash"button,manage to kick him away ONCE,then he stabs me! it seems the "mash"button/function,only works very haphazardly.So all i can do is keep going on all the side quests.Has anyone any hints how to beat this problem?

    I have the same problem with this game's segment and I have played it numerous times to a point that I wish I had never purchased this game. I may not buy another game from Ubisoft. That is how frustrated I am at this point. I have spent so much time trying to get thorough "Piece of the Past" I am fed up with Far Cry 3. It's to bad It could be a good value but this segment ruined it for me!

    Same thing with me. I've tried defeating the underwater pirate 5 or 6 times now, but every time I die.

    Frustrating how such a great game is getting ruined for me by this stupid glitch. Apparently though it's random, as other players report little or no issues getting past this part.

    The trick, or way it's supposed to be played is to kick him away at the second prompt. Think of it as a Right trigger (or keyboard command) /left trigger (or key command) combo. You will kick him away on the 2nd prompt . There are a few of these types of battles and climb sequences coming up, (xbox -right trigger left trigger combos) Get back me when ###%%$^$$%^$$%$ a little later on. anyways first manuever is to grab then time it so you kick the focker away. (2nd promt) (took four times last night,

    There is a fight later on where It took me 5 times to win, TIME the mashes with HIS actions, IE his arm moves up, you counter, Think Dark Souls type of timing here. look to the screen for trigger prompts.

    Thanx for the tip, amigo. Space Bar +C+E = victory, in just one try no less! Sucked having to waste all that time getting past that choke point though.

    I am ready to shelve this game, after 8 hours 11pm till 7 am this morning and this is the third time on this mission and 40 hours, I cannot get the space + c +e to work. Are you supposed to hold down the space bar when you get the C or let go of space bar then hit C? I get the two prompts very fast it seens like when I hit space nothing really happens and when the c prompt comes up he just keeps hold and I have plenty of deep dives, so i.m not drowning, but after 50 prompt scenes I feel like quitting. Can anybody offer me some advice?
