CoD2 Frustrating!

I still don't get why so many people struggled with this bit.

Same here, I was dreading getting to this bit after reading so many posts about it. First time I failed, second time won but fell off the ladder! :D

Third time lucky, went for a pint!

LOL! - I have to agree about the ladder bit - I died first time by falling off it! :D

I'll try my best to get the game complete tonight, Can it be done from "The Crossroads" to the end in 2hrs? :eek:

No. I would guess not.
 
I am still struggling badly with comrade sniper.
I have 2 more waves of germans to hold off, I can snipe out the 4 MG42s that they set up but can't take the halftrack out with the panzerfaust.
Do I actually need to take the halftrack out or do I just concentrate of taking out the germans that storm the building?

when you take the halftrack out (you do need to - wait til it's close) you only have to kill a few more, then you finish the Russian section.
It's, in my opinion, the second hardest section of the game.
 
I must agree on Comrade Sniper - it is one of the more tedious hard levels, that and that damn tank on the stalingrad mission.

For Comrade Sniper, try and quickly cover all the entrance points to the upper area where you and your team are. When you hear them shout that there's a halftrack approaching you've got two choices:

*Try and take it out as it approaches - you'll take a crap load of incoming cover fire and die.
*Wait about 2mins for it to arrive outside your building, and handle the incoming additional wave of soldiers that rushes in. Once that wave is out, quickly run to the window, look down and fire and point blank range.

It's all luck and repetitious gameplay for this.

Also, on a side note, don't let people telling you Hill400 is hard scare you, I personally found it to be one of the easiest parts of the entire game.

Pretty much agree mate, didn't think it was anything special, nowhere near as bad as clearing out the houses on the silo mission.

Just the Rhine to go :D
 
Im on downtown assault where you're in a kind of square and have to take out a tank with a sticky bomb. Can survive the germans but can't get close enough to the tank to blow it up without it either shooting me, or running off ! Been doing it now for what seems like days !
 
Well, posted that then did that part no problems! Anyways, on comrade sniper now. Getting a little annoyed with it. Can see me giving up with the game, seeing as i'm nowhere near finishing it ! Might just do it on hard or something. Don't think I've got the patience to do it on veteran, I get to annoyed with it/myself !
 
^I was like that too. Vet actually ruined the game for me because I didn't see it as a challenge or hard, it was just boosting the AI's firepower to such a daft level that it became tedious, but I wanted to see those achivements on my card...

I spent two days chasing that tank around the square benny hill style. Drove me nuts until I fell into a crater, and then the tank drove over me and I planted the bomb...:eek:

Some of the other later missions aren't as hard tbh, so finishing them does encourage you to move on. The british missions are the worst imo.

I did it on easy/normal at Xmas. I've come back to it for the points.
As much as it is doing my head in on comrade sniper i am loving it.

I found it a great challenge on Veteran, it wasn't as hard as has been made out though!
