seveneyes 0 Posted August 22, 2007 I am on the night mission where you guard the ammunition at your camp overnight. There is supposed to be 2 trucks that come in the morning to take the ammo to the airport. I killed the groups that come early on in the night, then waited (over 2 days) FOREVER for morning to come. At 5 am (game time) I did a little recon and found one enemy laying in some grass and shot him. Then my game froze and I have to start over at approx 4am (last save). My question is, does this mission really take 5+ hours to complete, or did I miss something? If my comp freezes again I am going to take a hammer to it. I really just wish this mission was over already. Any help would be appreciated. I feel like I must have missed something. That there is no way this mission could really take 5+ hours to complete.

Longjocks 0 Posted August 22, 2007 Haha. I remember this. I played until around 7:00AM in the game. I believe the end trigger is simply killing all the saboteurs. I don't know if a time limit is inclusive. All night the alarm would go off and one of the guards would get frantic, but there were no shots and no further enemies. After waiting until the morning I ran and drove around trying to work out what was going on. Eventually I realised one of the enemy saboteurs must have been stuck in a wall (or something like that) of one of the buildings. I went through it many times before and never saw him, but this last time he was at the top of the stairs, plain as day on a spot I'd walked over many times, next to one of my guards just standing there. I shot him and the mission ended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infam0us 10 Posted August 22, 2007 It ends when you kill all the SF guys, I stayed in the tower and watched over the whole base ... only takes about 10 minutes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raz0rx 0 Posted August 22, 2007 It ends when you kill all the SF guys, I stayed in the tower and watched over the whole base ... only takes about 10 minutes QFE Just sit in the tower... about 2 guys come from the town, and about 2 guys come from the forest. Easy done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted August 22, 2007 IIRC there was one guy doing nothing in one of those sheds (or whatever they are), so after waiting a bit i just checked the whole base and shot him, then the mission ended i believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seveneyes 0 Posted August 23, 2007 ok, thanx you all for the help. I had to start the mission over and it is around 3:30am in the game now. I have killed 4 SF guys so far. I will do a carefull check of the area. I hope I dont have to look forever....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seveneyes 0 Posted August 23, 2007 Pfft, I went back in to resume my game and climbed down the tower to check the camp thouroghly. I went into the first building below the tower and went all the way up the stairs. then started to come down again and check every room. On the second floor there was nothing in the room, so I began to head to the stairs. All of the sudden the alarm went off and an enemy magically appeard from thin air and was laying on the steps right in front of me. Luckily I was quicker on the draw and gave him some lovely plastic surgery. His hair lip and high cheek bones are no longer an issue for him.... Evidently he was the last one, because the mission ended. TY for the help. Enemies from thin air...what will they think of next....lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raz0rx 0 Posted August 23, 2007 The first time i did this mission i missed one of the guys coming in from the town... and i'm sitting in the tower like "wtf how long does this shit take?" So i climb down and there's a dude laying on the ground at the bottom of the ladder, shoot him, and the mission ends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

basch 0 Posted September 18, 2007 I've replayed the mission 2 times. If you have to wait a long time it's not going to finish anymore. Just wait and let your colleagues spot the saboteurs. The you can always decide to assist them. When I went looking around too much it seemed that the mission would become bugged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
