Mesquite at night, unstealthable/broken?

[Count]

What gives? Enemies can see perfectly through the fog, water, and bushes. I can't even make it past the bridge without someone sniping me with perfect accuracy through thick fog and reeds.

[Bankai9212]

I think it's the fog more then anything. I finished it easily the second most annoying level I'm the game.

[Arnold666]

The game was easy. Finished it in "I'm Death Incarnate" difficulty already on Sunday - Monday night.

[Bankai9212]

Op is referring to revisiting one of the maps not the difficulty of the game. Plus you can abuse quicksaves in the game.

[Arnold666]

Ok. Abuse quicksaves? Not my playstyle but whatever :)

[Bankai9212]

Not really a playstyle just a way to get past tricker parts of the game. Anyway that has nothing to do with OPs issue with the map.

Managed to beat it after some persistence. I'm convinced something was broken with the map as I later found that enemies weren't only tracing me through bushes and so forth but also tracing and shooting at me from behind walls as if from their perspective there was nothing between me and them.

The AI is absolutely dreadful in this game. Enemies hiding on the wrong side of the obstacle and tracking through walls. Half-Life was really ahead of it's time they must have used really old outdated methods when they made this just to save a buck.

Through most of the game the AI has actually been fine for me, but once I started doing the enigma code missions it started freaking out big time. Just finished the Roswell downtown mission and after assassinating the officer and clearing the level out Nazis and KKK began spawning in huge numbers behind an armored vehicle. After killing a mob of 20 they stopped.

Yeah that mission is somewhat broken.

Aside from the Uberkommander's ability to one-hit kill you from 100/100, it can be extremely difficult to even see him to avoid fire - especially if you are getting the skybox graphical issues which also seem to effect illumination in the level.

I ended up beating it by first clearing the level and then just continuously firing shotguns with the shrapnel upgrade in his general direction while strafing.

ah ha this level XD.

what you do is, stealth kill the 2 chatterboxes

silent snipe (with dual, easier) the robot scout in the air, go around the guard booth (the one with charging stations on), get ur lazerkraftwerk charged and snipe the lazer ubersoldat and then the KKK shows up kill him, charge another for the heavy mg ubersoldat shooting through fog, shoot through that should take care the bridge part.

Charge ur lazerkraftwerk at station, do not grab any heavy weapon it will just slow u down, get all weapons reloaded (dual mode) and just crotch walk to the right side of the bridge (go whole around, don't go toward bridge then move right, they will spot you right away, go around the cart on top of the hill have 50 armor, while they blind shooting, have ur best shooter ready (machinepistol or AR), run through that i presume the rocks made flat path, and then kill the one at the bridge head that's shooting at your last direction before he turn and spot u, then there's another KKK running toward u as u kill off last guy running toward barn, kill him, grab everything in the barn, wait and reload, if lucky, u get 2 kampfhound chasing into barn, murder them.

If no kamphound that's ok by now u should take care all the soldats near bridge and outside the barn, u should hear another request of backup from Uberkommandant or Kommandant for that matter, throw the grenades u found over the hill top (remember barn is at the bottom of hill house is at top of the hill toward right, through at middle area OVER the hill (between house and armoured trucks parked right outside barn, OVER, OVER THE HILL. because that's where uberkommandant is located, if not killed, u can least get grenade or environmental kill of the ONE kampfhound sticks to Uberkommandant (there's 3 hound after N times retires here, 1 for Uberkommandant, Kommandant and a random one wandering outside house)

Anyway, after throw 3 grenades i believe (at the barn u get 3 grenades 1 50 armor 2 40+ hp and some ammo i think) RUN THE HELL UP TO THE HELL WITH SMASHING JUMP BOTTOM, because there's a damp swamp right at the bottom of hill right outside barn (side entrance do not go around outside from barn front entrance), u can get stuck and shot dead if ur get stuck in s wamp (not like it will stuck BJ permanently but it gives times of the guards in the house run out and shoot u in the head. Run up hill, run into house, go upstair, shoot anyone block in your path, end of hallway on 2F of house is Kommandant, slap him in the face grab enigma code, take a deep breath save if u want but AFTER taken care 3-5 more soldant and elite soldant running upstair after you.

Now Uberkommandant will request a 3rd time backup if i recall correctly (if u follow my way, not 100% one shot through u can still die so don't expect this be your save pill, still about how GOOD ur shotaim is and everything coordination), get everything reloaded at the end of hallwway 2F house, grab shotgun instead this time (a MUST), reload it if its lack of ammo (only enough for 1 shotgun), well ♥♥♥♥♥ boyo ur dead, well unless u can kill Uberkommandant with his rocket pistol quick and not dead. So grab dual shotguns, run down and outside house (should have 2 soldants running up stair and into house when u go down) DO NOT LOOK BACK OR STAY IN HOUSE, nothing scary except ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ soldant spawn inside house and upstair if u stay and u will be shot dead, trust me it's experience. DO NOT STAY INSIDE HOUSE ONCE U LEAVE 2F. Run outside, drop down hill toward right u see Uberkommandant next to a tree, jump once toward right after drop down hill if he aim a rocket at you if not just kill him dual shotgun.

^ that's id say easiest way, long way but easiest.

or you can just gun blaze, take out chatboxes, robot scout silently, wait the ubersoldant on bridge turn his back, sneak in close cut his gasoline supply on the back walk a distance, kaboom shoot the trail with silent weapon, make ur RUN directly through bridge, toward left, get uberkommandant shooting rockets directly at ur face (if u can dodge well) 3 times, smack the ♥♥♥♥ out of him, grab card and leave level (once u touch down death card everything cease its action unless u choose cancel pickup and leave level that is.)

^ Downside of this one is u can't get enigma code in the house, and high chance of failure and easily get urself smack ur keyboard in half
