Shooting the Truck Turret = Literally Impossible.
Tried about 100 times, even set difficulty to easy, set aim assist to high, still completely im-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-possible to pull off before the truck gets too damaged.

Good job sticking the impossible mission just far enough into the game so I can't get a refund.

Can I ask what FPS you're getting ingame?
This seems to pop up every now and then, but from personal experience I noticed there's something really iffy when you get below 45fps, either hitscan doesn't work as it should, or the turret's hitbox is out of sync... but once it works you'll be wondering WTF was wrong here as it's literally not even a full clip that's needed to destroy the turret.

Still not impossible.

It isn't, just take damage at the beginning ignoring Paulie's advice to take cover and shoot the top of the turret. If timed right between reloads you can destroy it before it destroys the truck. On easy is probably even easier, maybe the aim assist isn't even aiming where it should, use manual aim.

Must've been something relating to this. Just said hell with it and put all the game settings to low, suddenly bullets started doing what they were supposed to... Seems like some kinda weird glitch.

There must be something going on with your game, because it really isn't that bad.

I complained about this too, but i put my laptop and mouse on a harder surface and did it on my second try.

On a Difficult level passed with from 2 time - you listen to the conversation dialogue in the game - when to shoot!

It's not impossible at all... I've done in 2 playthroughs one on Hard and one on Classic.

I've seen some people saying they beat it once they turned graphical settings to the lowest.. so the game ran at the most stable frame rate as possible... which I don't know if it matters.. I have my have locked at 30fps and had no issues beating it once I set auto aim to High.. Took me only 2 attempts on Classic and 1 attempt on Hard.

Try shooting in Semi with Thompson. I did it with shorter shooting intervals on my third try.

I get an average 120-150 fps and i beat the mission on my first try on hardest difficulty not had issue with it
This was the most frustrating mission / section of the entire game for me.

I had been playing on Classic up until this point... I retried this section dozens of times over a few days and ultimately I decided the my IRL time was not worth the satisfaction of completing the game on Classic so I just dropped the difficulty and passed the mission immediately thereafter.

My problem was that when I reached this checkpoint, my health was fairly low, making it very difficult to complete the objective. I restarted the chapter twice trying to get to this point with a much higher amount of health but unfortunately ended up more or less in the same situation.

Add to that the extremely poor loading times in-between each death... it was infuriating.

I can't believe the reload times after a death in this engine... it should still be running entirely in memory and take zero time to reload a checkpoint but instead I have to wait like 10-15 seconds each time I restart the checkpoint. Not a huge deal until you encounter a mission like this and then I just felt it was a waste of my time IRL to deal with that so oh well, I guess I won't be able to say I beat this mediocre game on the highest difficulty... whatever.

its basically a paywall. You HAVE to buy a controller which will grant you aim assist. It is intentionally made unbeatable without a controller.

I did it with keyboard and mouse. I never even think about using controller on shooting games.

I beat the game on hard difficulty and I died many times to take out that turret so with the checkpoint saves I got past it so if you are complaining because you can't do it with a perfect 1st try or even with the checkpoint saves you can't do it?

Did this on classic in 6 tries with a mouse, HUD to minimal and around 30fps. Just time your reloading and shoot when it is not shooting. It took me less than 3 magazines. Just never give up. You'll get there. :)
