defend khe sanh push back the nva - mission problem

[svistaq1989]

I'm trying to play this level on veteran and now I'm stuck at this point. I saw couple of vidoes on you tube where woods run down the hill and kick the barrel, but guess what, when I'm playing mason just siting behind trench and doing nothing and enemies are still coming...
Anyone know what to do? I'm thinking of playing the level from beginning, but if someone know how to fix this bug I'll be very thankfull.

Yeah that part is hard to hell.

Basically you need to work your way to the barrels and kick them down. After doing that no more NVA will spawn on that side of the battlefield.

Yeah again... WOODS is stuck and he dosn't go down for the first barrel, and when I'm trying to push them (pushing X V LMB RMB other stuff, raging) they won't go down. This part is not hard it's just some bug, because I waited for woods for about 20 minutes defending in left bunker and nothing happened.

You're meant to push the barrels down yourself. You don't actually move against them, there should be an option near them to push them down when you are like just behind them. I managed to do it.

I managed to make it trough... somehow, but it wasn't the end of bugs.
So if someone got a problem with this mission You have to kick middle and right barrel (press F) left barrel is bugged and should be pushed by Woods, but to end mission You don't need it.
After that You going to push to the top of the hill and again woods stays at the bottom of the hill and do NOTHING. At the top, after cut-scene with Woods (magicaly appearing at the top) having his gun stuttered, You killing NVA and Woods again gonna run to the bottom of the hill (probably to take piss or something). Next You gonna jump into a car and wait for Woods, because of that bug (Woods waiting at the bottom of hill) You have to wait for about 5 minutes for woods (This time he went for no 2). It looks like this:

And after that the rest of level should be normal.
PS. Sorry for bad english

7 years later and this part is still complete ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it seems. I can't progress because every chicken-♥♥♥♥ NVA firing from the hip laser-beams me to death the second I pop out. I managed to reach a single barrel only to learn that while I am doing the animation to kick it down the hill, I CAN STILL TAKE DAMAGE and I got killed before the animation even finished. To make this even more astronomically hard you, for whatever reason, are not able to sprint down the stairs at the start. Quality game design.

To further the issue is the AI serve as nothing if not a hindrance body blocking you from any form of cover the entire time and firing at anything that isn't an enemy. They fail to even serve as a warm target to potentially draw the enemy fire.

At this point after what was probably nearing 100 failed attempts I lower the difficulty to Hardened which IMMEDIATELY curbs the aim-bot effect of the AI and allows me to complete the same barrel I've been trying for the last hour and some change.
