Maybe I'm being a real n00b, but it's so hard! Can anyone offer me some pointers for the "protect VIP 2" map? I keep getting killed and I've tried it god knows how many times now.

Thanks

It's the one where you have to protect VIP 2 and you are standing in the sort of collapsed building and there are enemies coming towards you. You have to hold them off until this support Apache comes along (at which point I died). I managed to do it by standing behind a post an moving the rest of my team to the side. I was so happy when I saw objective completed, but the Apache was on its way and I was supposed to tell it what to shoot (me being me didn't know how to do that) so I got in a panic and died :eek:
You might see my game on ebay soon: "GRAW on the 360, disc snapped in half, box partly burnt, apart from that fine!"

Sorry, lol. Any suggestions?
 
I did what you said, using a pillar for cover. Cant remember if you can cantrol the chopper or not when it comes, if you can you press left and right on the D pad to switch between your team and any vehicles you have control over, then use up to direct them to a particular target.
 
Yeah, this can be a pita.

Imo, head to the right (go past the VIP and out the otherside) and get behind a long concrete wall.

Be very very careful and remember you don't have to kill all of them, let the other soldiers take shots. Don't take any risks and watch out for flankers which you'll be able to hit by turning 90 degrees left.

Once the Apache comes, duck down low and use it to mop up the remaining soldiers.

Good luck.
 
All I can say is you want to try this level on hard where every shot fired is aimed at the head with a 99.9% chance of it being deadly accurate. :D

My trick on normal and hard was to run towards the enemy and go prone behind the wall with the american soldiers, try to leave your men behind cover and just keep ordering them to shoot.

They will die but they should take a load of enemies with them and you can lie there and just wait for them to poke there heads round the corner and blast them, also while your behind the wall chuch a few grenades over at them.

The one point you have to be careful is the wall by the burned out bus as they sneak down there and thats normally where they kill the president from. I found grenades to be the key here as well. Good luck.
 
I'm playing through on hard atm and did this just a day or so back...I hid behind the left edge of the semi-collapsed (fairly long and high) chunk of wall, and did some corner peeking to take out the people in the distance on the monument. When they start getting closer I found I needed to be on the left else they could shoot the VIP. Smoke grenades can help.
 
I found this a little tricky when I first played this but the best way I found to complete the level was to send your men over to the railings on the right hand side so it provides enough cover for them and they take out most of the men and then if you hide behind the concrete wall that is almost directly in front of the abandoned car where the long distance enemies come out from, this gives you enough cover to take out the guys who are hiding there as well as the enemies that try to flank you on the left and take out the enemies vehicle with a few grenades.

normally vip2 just stays hiding behind the post that you find him on and should be safe and sound.


Hope this helps and good luck :)
