Miami Chapter 5, 13th Duty

[EagleRainbow]

Hi folks,

I am currently puzzled with the duty 13 in chapter 5 of Miami (Single City Run, DLCs installed) - that's the one with the immigrant's bomb threat (no festival): The first bomb explodes without any chance of recovery. I am sending the fireman's there first. With the help of a helicopter I am able to properly cope with the second bomb threat ("you have 5 mins to evacuate"). Also the third bomb (the one where the security officer's calling) I am able to handle without allowing the bomb to explode. However, I am doing something wrong when the terrorist poses its demand of publicity: Whatever I say to him, I always fail then after his abandoned car has been investigated. I also already tried to delay him on the phone long enough to have him detected (by GPS detection of the call), and had a police car at scene even before the call ended (funny enough that even then the car is already abandonded - diverted call?...). However, whatever I do, I still end up getting 20 reputation deducted - and apparently the story does not go on (the rest of the shift is rather uninteresting afterwards).

Has anyone a clue what I am doing wrong?

This is a matter of strategy. There are times when the bombs are placed in quite distant areas. This will sound strange to you, but it's true.
All right. When the first bomb explodes, you must send the fire unit that is close to the explosion site.
Then when the second notice comes out, you must be very fast. Depending on the position, if you are lucky and it does not explode, you must send a fire truck and several police units. This will deactivate the pump faster.
In the third bomb (security guard) you must tell him to evacuate all people. Repeat the previous process and solved.
Finally, when the terrorist calls you for the last time, you should listen to the conditions he demands. If you refuse, the thing could get very ugly, not to mention that you would lose reputation points.
Once I tell you everything he asks you, you must access.
After finishing the call, do not ignore it as they should track where it comes from.
Once the call is located, you send a van to stop him. The terrorist will resist and get hurt. You send an ambulance and transfer it to the hospital. The rest of the service is simple. I hope these tips help you keep moving forward. Greetings.

Thanks for the points! I'll give it another try and see if I can make it.

The problem for me is: he's never there...

That's the trick: You must finally comply to his terms. He'll tell you that he wants to have a statement by the president then. If you try to stay strict, you can't make it...

Thanks for your support!

the immigrant's bomb threat (no festival): The first bomb explodes without any chance of recovery. its obvious they are suicide bombers typical immigrants

I condemn the contemptuous suggestion that is carried with your last sentence. However, from a tactical perspective you are right with the rest: The game does not give you any chance to prohibit the first bomb exploding.
