BashT 10 Posted June 3, 2009 It doenst work at mine....The console doesnt show up is there a diff between german and other versions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obroa 10 Posted June 3, 2009 no console appears, you just hear a ding when you entered the right code. I wouldnt do though, the way the campaign is structered the events of one mission can alter how you are perceived by the "local" community. Till a fix comes out (and I am trying the mission every now and again lol) I am working on the editor, practising my flying skills and tryign to unlock the items in the Armory.

icewindo 29 Posted June 3, 2009 Uhm guys where's the main camp? Coordinates? It's getting a bit ridiculous here, I'm constantly getting sniped and rpg'd in the southwestern area but can't make out a single contact. Also, as soon as I hear the rpg/rocket "swoosh" when firing it, it will take about 6 seconds for it to reach me (and hit), even in full speed, so I guess it' s some BMP firing from like 49400m (although I set the viewdistance to 1000m) , hm? Can't see it . And neither can my otherwise superhuman AI spotters. Same with the "sniper" who kills me the second I get out of my LAV in said zone. Tbh. it looks pretty scripted. If the UAV wouldn't crash into trees on every 3 tries sending it to the southwestern area, I might have some INTEL... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kutthoat5150 10 Posted June 3, 2009 Okay I finished every single objective for this level expect the find evidence and locate and destroy any sentry camps. So far I have found 3 of those camps in the red area on the map but the missions still hasn't ended yet, is there something else I'm missing? I already found and destroyed the main camp and killed the leader, what else is there to finish? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thardoz 10 Posted June 4, 2009 rofl, i have the same problem... i cant find the main camp and i've done everything else, getting rly tired, and yes, the uav is useless <.< any tip would be appreciated. From my various attempts I've learned that the location of the hostile camp changes a bit. There seem to be two most likely spots that I've seen so far: Around 033096 between the town of Grozdno and "Schwarzer Berg" (Black Hill). Around 028093 between Krasnotav and the Pobeda Dam. The easy way to get a firmer fix: Talk to the orthodox Priest during the weapon cache mission. Just approach him for the dialogue to start. Then run to the church in that town. Behind the church are some weapon crates. Choose to let the priest keep the weapons and he'll promise you some information. From now on watch the map carefully. Check it for a red square'ish icon with a transparent cross in it, named "Feldlazarett (Auf)". That's the position of the hostile camp. It may disappear from the map again after a while, so when you see it, make sure to mark it, so that you can find it again. Then grab the LAV-25 and cautiously head towards that location. Be sure to switch the main gun to armour piercing rounds and engage the T-72 first of all. Use the terrain at your advantage, stay at distance and don't hesitate to pop smoke and retreat if it looks hairy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nocturna 10 Posted June 4, 2009 hmm thanks alot, but now i cant load my saved games after installing the 1.01 patch lol *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kutthoat5150 10 Posted June 4, 2009 how many sentry camps do you have to find to complete that objective? I found 3 in the red areas and haven't yet competed it, I've been running around the whole map and haven't found anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thardoz 10 Posted June 4, 2009 how many sentry camps do you have to find to complete that objective? I found 3 in the red areas and haven't yet competed it, I've been running around the whole map and haven't found anything. AFAIK it's four. There are two in the red area west of FOB Manhattan. There is one west of the airport NW of FOB Manhatten. And there is one at the radio tower in the lower part of the red area north of FOB Manhattan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BashT 10 Posted June 4, 2009 Yeah I dont like to do such things but the SOlitude/Desert Mission is very hard... and I did alll Stuff what i Had to and I did all extra jobs but it does not end... so I will try that command Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feuer 10 Posted June 5, 2009 I have the slight idea, that the maincamp didn't spawned for me - I had to skip the mission I played several hours and followed all the hints I could find, but I didn't managed to find the maincamp As I have no idea either, of how to use the UAV it's impossible for me to locate it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Obroa 10 Posted June 5, 2009 I usually go around and do a few missions then... When you arrest the woman, you escort her to a location and you uncover the main base as it fires upon the heli that comes to extract her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schaefsky 0 Posted June 5, 2009 There is a UAV control terminal at the FOBs. While controlling the UAV hit "m" for map, left click will change patrol area. Use "w/s" for flyheight, "q,y/z" for speed. That said, it is a bit useless because of it's unstabilized turret. I actually spotted the camp by chance when I was flying from the extraction point of the woman to the village the priest told me about via Starforce 21. The guys in the village confirmed the location, more or less. Luckily the tank was already destroyed (don't know how) when I got there, because Boomerang was more or less useless (I'm not sure which of the guys appearing left and right of the camp was Boomerang, none really attacked the camp) and I did not figure out how to call in artillery.

Feuer 10 Posted June 5, 2009 I usually go around and do a few missions then... When you arrest the woman, you escort her to a location and you uncover the main base as it fires upon the heli that comes to extract her which means, that the base didn't spawned for me :/ There was nothing shooting on the helicopter that picked her up Also I didn't found any UAV trailer in the FOB base (which also seems to be a common bug), just had to skip this mission, wasn't a big deal as I got all the story relevant informations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schaefsky 0 Posted June 5, 2009 Also I didn't found any UAV trailer in the FOB base (which also seems to be a common bug) It is a trailer like thingy with antenna, you might want to hold down "space" for identifying it. It was not working in 1.00 though, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thyco 0 Posted June 5, 2009 Feuer, theres 2 spawn points for the camp that i know off, theres the one main one west of doburkov and then there is one to the West-North-West of krastrov( where the woman goes tot he church) near the dam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feuer 10 Posted June 5, 2009 It is a trailer like thingy with antenna, you might want to hold down "space" for identifying it. It was not working in 1.00 though, I think. I found it earlier, but there doesn't seem to be any way to interact with it Feuer, theres 2 spawn points for the camp that i know off, theres the one main one west of doburkov and then there is one to the West-North-West of krastrov( where the woman goes tot he church) near the dam It was not near dubkov (thats where i was mosly searching as civlians told me to look there) I was at the dam, but I propably missed some parts so chances are it's there, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cellus 10 Posted June 6, 2009 Sometimes after arresting the woman (forget her name), when I get to the LZ I lose all control of my troops. Not that they ignore me as someone said, but I am given no option to give commands. I'm in a Humvee with a gunner, but usually he doesn't bother firing on anything as we come under attack. Eventually I went to the insurgent base first and wiped them out, loaded everyone in to the technicals, moved to the LZ, killed the infantry wave, but now the chopper gets there, the woman runs over to it and just cowers there not getting in.

Yoma 0 Posted June 6, 2009 I also have the "cannot go near main camp" bug. Also all the enemies near the camp are simply friends to my squad, untill i get out of my vehicle, then they shoot me... And if i try riding up the hill, there seems to be an instant killzone (rpg in vehicle, magic sniper bullet when running) This could be a great mission if it weren't for the bugs...

twisted 128 Posted June 7, 2009 this mission is awesome. loving the challenge. but one little bug to report on the take the main camp campaign. it says i get arti support but none is available. worth fixing in the next patch BIS as i really need arti to soften them up before going in as all allies are destroyed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
