Hellbound Sahelanthropus
So I was replaying the mission, see if I could destroy sahelanthropus and noticed a few cool things.

The floating boy shows up next to his head, if you hit him, sahelanthropus instantly goes back to blue or "I have no idea where you are" mode.

I don't know what caused this but I think if you hit a powerline into sahelanthropus, you instantly win the fight. Miller says "Now thats some lateral thinking!" and sahelanthropus just stands there convulsing. I took my time getting to the chooper and he didn't stop until I took off for the jumping scene.


And no, you can't damage him at all. Nothing breaks or falls off. :steamsalty:

This is exactly what happended to him once, I thought I hit the floating boy way too many times? I can't remember what had happended to make him stand there and twitch permanently..

I hit him with my grade 5 bazooka for a straight 15 minutes, he has infinite health.

I'm 99.9% sure i beat HC selanthropus with a rcoekt launcher and constant divespamming around the map, it's possible.

Nah. He has no health bar, rockets have 0 effect on him. He doesn't reel back after getting it too many times anywhere and he doesn't show damage.

Maybe that's it. I'd have to retest sometime.

I sat there for at least 10 minutes spamming rockets at his head. Record yourself doing it otherwise I just don't believe it.

Sorry again dude, i'm an idiot -.-

Yeah, the undestructable tubes behind his back is a dead giveaway, but anyway I wasted 15 minutes trying to destroy it, with infinity bandana, he didn't even flinch. They made it invinsible because of that short cutscene?

well if you dont count dealing it so much damage it gets a mental breakdown after you destroyed some parts of him (like the legs. hands. head and back) (btw you destoy the legs by shooting at the grenades)
