Patriot Acts mission is pretty buggy.

[DarkFalz]

This mission feels almost impossible to complete in it's current state. When the helicopter goes to pick up the VIP from the house, sometimes he just sits in the house and seems to run in circles until the mission automatically fails and If you have to reload a checkpoint at this part, the the helicopter will spawn with no pilot and again, the VIP just sits in the house until the mission fails. And lastly, the helicopter is so fast that even if you don't crash at all on the ATV (good luck with that), it still pulls away from you pretty easily

Glad this is only a side mission and not a story one.

Interesting is anyone else experiencing this?

[cesar]

Same for me ! The guy in the house doesn't move. It ends up with a mission fail.

Can't catch the helicopter with ATV. Mission shouldn't start if you don't have the wing suit. Just a side note, ATV is the worst vehicle in the game. Actually terrible off road.

Yeah I get the same thing with the guy just standing there and not getting in the chopper. Ends with a Mission Compromised failure.

[GhostfaceN7]

Nah that Mission worked fine for me!

[Dalton]

Same, I just spent 15 mins following the dude while he took like 5 foot strolls lol.

[Sharp Dressed Mann]

VIP guy just stood around and then I failed the mission. Happened a couple times before he finally walked to the helicopter.

[Shadow]

not for me

[Ceror]

I cant start the mission because he wont get in the car in the very beginning of the quest

edit: nevermind i quit to the menu and tried again , now it works

[MaytheFragsbewithyou]

Yeah had to redo the mission so it worked

I had that problem too. Just wait a little while and then a marker should appear on your map where the mission starts. Go there and you should find Willis there to start the mission.

This mission is still terrible. The ATV will spin around 180 degrees for no reason at all if you don't land it just right, and the helicopter moves way too fast. A single bump (and with all those freaking trees in the way, you WILL hit something) is all it takes to cause you to fail. What a terrible mission... and that's when it even works in the first place.

[Coss]

To be fair I couldn't even start the mission; Willis Huntley just walked off after telling me to get in his car..

[Dethilion]

yep got that too

The very first time I did this mission Willis just stood at the radio and did nothing. I went back to my last saved checkpoint and restarted the mission.

I thought maybe it had bugged because I read the Preppers Note on the wall while waiting for Willis to get up into the tower. Don't no whether reading the Prepper's Note while in the mission is a problem or if it was just a coincidence. But when I started the mission over after the reload I avoided reading the Preppers Note and everything worked fine. On my second and now third playthroughs I avoided the Preppers Note during the mission and had no problem.

Although on my third playthrough my target did dawdle in the house and when I went to find out what was happening he came out of the house and I got spotted and failed. But that was the only other issue I ever had.
