Red dawn: guba not in uaz, goty v1.91

Recommended Posts

Having spent months trying to find my lost Resistance CD so that I could play the game once more (after buying the original game, Red Hammer and then Resistance) I gave up and bought the GOTY edition, installed it from scratch and then applied the v1.91 patch from CD 3.

Operation Flashpoint: so good, I bought it twice.  smile_o.gif

I'm on the penultimate mission, Red Dawn, waiting at De40 for a UAZ to come bouncing along with Guba inside. A UAZ has duly appeared, but with only one goon inside: the driver. Guba and the other Spetz Natz goons are nowhere to be seen. I haven't yet destroyed Guba's boat or the Scud. Shooting the driver stops the UAZ, but no-one miraculously appears from inside it.

If I play the mission backwards, and take out the boat and Scud before wandering along to pick up Guba, the same UAZ with one goon inside sits waiting at the ruined city, at Ea36. At least, it looks like the same UAZ/goon combination. Still, Guba is nowhere to be seen.

I've completed 1985 a couple of times already; I know how this mission is supposed to play out. At least, I know how it *used* to play out. Have the mission parameters changed with the GOTY edition? Has the v1.91 patch changed the mission at all?

I've searched the forums, but the only posts I've found have been advice on how to find Guba and the Scud, advice which I already knew from previous times that I've played the game.

Strange. I restarted the mission and he appeared as normal, in the UAZ. Oh well. Must have been a glitch.

I play the GOTY edition, and I've had him and his second goon come walking out from the compound after I greased the first guy. Sometimes the second guy comes out shooting, sometimes not.

I think it depends on how quick you get over there after that mission starts.

According to the Prisma Strategy Guide you shoud fire a short

burst at the UAZ and see if GUba survives. If he didn't a red X

is next to the first objective.

So maybe he was killed when you don't see him.
