** Official GR:AW Gameplay Thread **

hah, this 5th mission is killing me - didnt help that I've been on red health since blowing up the first AA vehicle, to the point where one hit will kill me. Managed to blow the other 2 up after trying half a dozen times (found night vision absolutely essential for the first time in the game).

Now I'm trying to enter the castle but I didnt get any health replenishment so I'm still on a one hit and I'm dead deal lol. Killed the first 2 then go up and around the corner to where 3 more are waiting. Tried using a greande but I'm finding the grenade control and aiming to be really hard. Having a break now and will try again later.

This is the one I'm at. Pretty sure you get full health after the chopper shooting bit though. I can't get up the ramp to the castle, lost my wrag with it a couple of days ago, not tried again since !
 
U can shoot two at top of castle b4 u run up the slope then go slowly up and u can hide behind a bit of the wall which then u want to lean around and pick the others off, a good idea is to pick up a gaurds gun (from the big tower b4 running to castle is easier) an automatic is easier to get em ;)

Becareful when u get around the rest of the castle keep low and u can get thru it quite easy!

// edit //

Oliver u mean the very 1st ramp? Run as soon as u get out of that chopper and start the level equip grens and charge at the van and throw 2 towards the back of it, will kill all the troops in the transporter and blow it up. Then LAY down and pick two guards off behind the sandbags with the sniper rifle. Hide behind the wall on the left and aim up ull see a light with ya NV on just to the left of that isa guard it **** pick him up then snipe him ;) U wanna pick off the other gaurds from a distance too as u start going up that slope. Equip ya pistol tho as a few are close range so makes it easier to get them :)

ok i am stuck on the level for clear the way. I took out the first roadblock, i am walking along the rooftops and `shows the second enemy outpost, but wont let me go any further and i have destroyed the cars and the enemy truck and the 2 tanks are packed in it too :( is it a bug ot wha?

Edit, found out its a bug and sometimes doesnt click the checkpoint, need to start again and hope for the best, this sucks.
After the level. in the trainyard which parts where impossible to play cos of wierd texture issues. WOuld have thought all this would have been sorted :(

Hi all, still got this game waiting for me in my desk drawer havnt had time to play yet, gonna get to grips with it tonight ''hopefully'', I remember about 9 months ago when the previews of this game were doing the rounds on tv that there was a live view displayed in a hud box top left of the screen which was going to let you see what your squad was seeing as you played the game, was this feature scrapped for the 360? all the mag screenshots show this hud box as a map or static image details. just that i though this feature was cool, two screens going on at the same time..
 
Hi guys, yep, it was the left trigger to scan the area that I was missing....anyone else find the on-screen prompts extremely small and confusing?

Stuck on the "protect VIP2 bit now which everyone sounds like they've had problems with. Came here to look for tips :)

Have read you can order a strike from the chopper? Will go back and have a go at that in a sec...

Blooming intense level though this one eh?
 
Amazing what taking a little break will do for you, just went back to mission 5 after not playing since last night and did it first time, the secret to the hud scrambling part if definitely to ditch your sniper rifle and grab one of the baddies automatics.

is this the level outside the embassy after it's blown up? if so, what chopper? I haven't got one!
 
an apache comes on the scene after a certain amount of time. You can then basically hide and direct it at each red target (starting with the tank and apc)

Just got past mission 5 myself - it was quite stressful knowing that one single hit would kill me!

Also had a few good games with kronologic - sorry about the mic - couldnt chat as the mrs had a freind round lol.
 
Finished it on normal, fantastic game, apart from a couple of bugs.
Will go through it on hard at some point too. You dont get the achieements for normal and hard when u do it on hard. so might as well do it twice :D
 
Well Im on the mission where I have to take out the scrambling pods or whatever they are called...

Its very difficult, Im getting killed everytime!!!!!

I will try again later....The enemy soldiers see me for miles.........


:rolleyes:

Everything becomes second nature once you get to grips with it, I had the problems you're experiencing too, but they fade away.

after you blown up the 3 vehicles and head towards the castle and up the slope on the castle there is a ammo replenish which takes your health back up one level near the top towards the back.

Just did that level, it was so intense. Breathed a sigh of relief when that chopper arrived on the scene.

Correct, I found this while running away from the Helicopter in the wrong direction!
