Just finished incursion. whew!

Jeez, what a mission!! Just finished Incursion. That was tense!

I managed to crawl all the way to the front of Guba's house. Got the the bush right infront of the front door. As soon as I peeked out, the damn sirens went off. DAMN! Someone spotted me!

Got back inside the bush, decided that if I was gonna get killed, I might as well have some fun and kill as many as I can. I stayed in the bush and just started killing everyone with my MP5. Strangely, noone seemed be able to locate my exact position. So I kept on putting holes in them as they came.

By now tanks were rolling everywhere, and one stopped 2 feet away from me. Well, I kept firing them off until I couln't see anymore men. What the?? I'm still alive?? Noone has killed me?? Well I waited a bit, and noone else was around. So I crawled to the door, grabbed the documents. And headed back for the bush in fear that someone might see me. Hmm. Noone around except for the tanks/BMP's. I managed to crawl my way south-west til I was sure I was out of sight. Saw a few infantry running around though. I finally got to some steep hill, really rough terrain, like no BMP could get me there.

Managed to make my way down to the edge of the fence on the south-east end. And to swim my way around the fence. And was home free.

I didn't fire off a round til the alarm sounded when I was right out side the front door.

Now, as for the next mission I am on searching for that SCUD, I managed to crawl my way to that scud area. Left my men behind in some woods. Then I spotted the scud. Not with my eyes. But my ingame character saw it. He said SCUD 2 o clock. I assumed that after seeing it, that It would be on the map. Well, in I got around to where it was supposed to be, and it wasn't there.

Where in the world was it?(Don't tell me though! If my character saw it, how come I couln't see it on the screen?

Whew! Anyways just thought I'd share. I'm gonna hit the sack now and try later.

always trust your eyes. you are better off seeing it than listening to reports

I find it pretty disturbing to hear:

4 o'clock enemy Machine gunner, 50..

..and not seeing a goddamn thing.

I know what you mean, when your men start reporting in enemies that are in at a close distance and you can't see them is disturbing. I wind up frantically looking around and stuff.

By the way, what is the number the AI gives after reporting the enemy and direction?

For example "Spetsnatz 2 0 clock 200" What exactly does the 200 mean? Is that distance in yards or meters or is it the map location or something? I always assumed it was the enemies distance.

...my experience within incursion was quite similar. so I could not prevent me from blowing up some tanks on the way I was hidden in that "magic bush", too. from there I finished off some patrols, like you. the rest from inhouse. I also made a recon to that barracks nearby to push up my score and of course retreated without big problems

correct 200 is distance

also when some AI report 'soldier, 27 10'

this means

soldier at 270 degrees(which is west), distance of 100 meters(multiply 10 to that number)

You guys are terrible. Incursion is a covert mission. You're supposed to steal those documents without anyone noticing you were there.

Best way to do it is to crawl, crawl and crawl - and never ever get up. If you accelerate the time to 4X it will go buy faster.

I easily crawled up to the house, being 2 feet away from about 10 patrols and no one ever spotted me.

Ahhh yes, using these bugs to my advantage.

If U have the scud spotted (called out) but U have not actually seen it then U can direct the rest of your squad so that they target the "Scud@12o´clock" and then have them to engage that target. Then U just simple follow them until U see where they are heading/shooting.
