You're playing it the wrong way.
Take it slow, approach every group of enemies with stealth, get out of your car.
It doesn't get any easier as you go through the game, much to its detriment as the respawning checkpoints make for some frustrating, repetitive gameplay.
However... the game gets a lot more fun when you unlock grenade launchers and explosives.
The actual missions are a blast and challenging in a good way. Just sucks that they only make up 20% of the game time, the remaing 80% spent driving and swearing at the TV.
%100 correct. FC2 is one of my favorite games, it has it's flaws, but I love it.
I hate that the stealth kills with the machete never work though, they always scream while they're on the floor and alert the other dudes around so there's no point. If you want to be stealthy you have to use the silenced Makarov or the Dart Rifle, which always got on my nerves.
I generally found the stealth a little buggy, I ended up falling back on my all powerful AK47 most of the time. That thing rips them to shreds.
Until you unlock the automatic grenade launcher... holy shit that weapon is fun.
Guard posts gone in one shot. Sweet.
Made the endgame way too easy though, the Heart of Darkness was a breeze.
I never beat it, I had a corrupted version for the 360 and it would always erase my files and eventually it just stopped working.
Once I found that the machete, and stealth, was mostly pointless I just went for balls-out, fuck-all destruction weapons:
Special: RPG
Primary: MGL Grenade Launcher
Secondary: Sidearm grenade launcher
Nothing can survive this deadly combination! The flamethrower works suprisingly well, unlike most games, and I often found myself using it in close combat.
