 | I just recently got this game and was stuck on this objective for most of a week. Heres how I finally got through it. I entered this one with only myself and one guy so that made it much harder. I planted him next to the VIP behind that rock and I stood up against the broken wall right there by them. I could cover the hole in the wall and take out the enemies that came through there. Timing is everything....if you know when they are coming you can kill them before they do any damage. When I could, I moved forward a bit to look around the wall, target the tanks as they showed up and shoot the guys I saw out there. After the VIP pick up I went right back to the same spot. When the last tank was gone I just tried to pick off the enemy one by one. When the evac chopper arrives it stirs up the dust which makes the visibility bad out there so I used the map to see where the shooters were hidden. I marked them with a way point marker so I knew exactly where to shoot without taking much fire. Two of them were directly on the other side of the chopper but I found that the helo doors were open on both sides and I shot them through the chopper. When I couldnt find any more shooters I sent my guy out front to draw any fire.....I was amazed when it was actually clear.
I think luck played a role here for me because when I finished I still had my guy and one of the embassy guards.....usually I was by myself when I got to the final stages. | PalusMus 14/05/2008 21:12 |
 | I hate this shitty mission!! I've been stuck on it for two days, its impossible if you have only one man left. after I evacuate vip 2 it still goes fine until the third tank arrives and then i get surrounded (by that time im left alone xD) i've tried all your strategies, butnothing works and i dont want to use any cheats cuz their lame as hell. what to do???? my only man is a gunner, wouldit be a advantage if I would use sniper? | sammie123 22/04/2008 10:52 |
| I loved this mission!
Sure, it took me at least 40 tries, but the constant 'failures' just make me more determined. I was almost (repeat, almost) disappointed when i finally cracked it. I lost all my men, around the time i destroyed the second tank. I had to finish alone.
It is these tough (side)missions that really make a game for me. This one gave me the same satisfaction as the ambulance side-missions in GTA. No mistakes allowed, no quick-saves, just perfection till the very end. I love it!

 | wow. this was hard!!!(until i found the strategy for success!!) ok so what u gotta do is be in perfect positions. by the side of the embassy(but still in the gates of it) there are pillars. hide behind the far one and then put on guy behind the embassy so he can tae out any guys coming from the back. (IMPORTANT= at the begging of this part, run up the stairs and shoot the the wall on you imediate right as soon as the chopper pilot contacts you. 3 guys will come and if you have your man behind the embassy, they will kill him. afer eliminating them, go to the pillar) then i put a sniper by the builing across from the embasy on the same side you are. you can shoot from behind the pillar, but keep down when vehicles come.
ok so when the first jeep comes, take out the gunner then hide. as soon as you get the apache on you team, call it in from behind the pillar. make sure your 2 guys are outside of the tanks vision. after you take it out, wait till u get the orders to get VIP2 to the chopper, then do it, your sniper should cover you. go back behind the pillar. then turn on you tacmap, and wait fot the jeep and the tank to come from the far right. apache them. thhen just stay down till a third tank comes up on uyour tacmap. you actually have to move away from the pilar(about 8 feet to the right) to apache this one. the top of it will be just barly visable, and will look like rubble. after it is kawpowied, bud will leave you. then go to your tacmap and slowly send you guys to the blackhawk. there will be like 8 guys inside the embassy, but they will easily take them out(amazingly!) then just slowly head for the bhawk
i beat it on the third try like this. i was stuck on this level for 2 weeks almost! i tried all the other peoples strategies, but still couldint beat it. thewn i did this and one. the level after is cool. srry bout any typos, i had alot of caffiene today, and am shaking really bad. peace [ see image ] | sweetness 06/11/2007 23:35 |
| Wheeewwhhh!!!!
That was ridiculously hard! Actually when I finally did it, it was not soo difficult! I totally agree with most of the comments about save points and having to start over, but with a combination of strategies, (all previously suggested by people here, I don't proclaim to be original!) I think I can offer an easy (although time consuming!) solution. From the start get your men (I had only 2) to follow you. I ran immediately into the embassy and hid behind the wall on the left on the sand/rubble pile (a little in front of the VIP with a large rock on your left and the broken wall on your right) and crouched with my gun aiming towards the gap in the wall which is facing you (on the left of the embassy as you look into the square/plaza) Immediately 'tab' and place 1 man behind the broken gate to the right of the embassy (again as you look out from the building into the square) Make sure he is positioned behind the rock (a little way back from the gate) to give him more cover and don't set him to cover the area or he will wander off and get mashed! Put the other in front of you (inside and on the left of the embassy building as you look into the square) Just after you get the message 3 enemies will appear through the gap, it is easy to pick them off as you are waiting for them. Snipe the gunner on the jeep and when the jeep stops kill the 2 enemies who exit the jeep. After the jeep comes a few more enemies appear through the gap in the wall, pick them off as before. As soon as you get the message about the airstrike target the tank that is in front of the embassy to the left. (you don't even have to see it, just aim your cursor in the general direction and the jet will take it out. After mopping up the stragglers take the VIP to the heli and just before you get there get your men to follow you. Run immediately behind the embassy and get the men to wait there with you ('tab' and put them behind the embassy in safety) After a short time some more enemies will come from behind the embassy but your men can easily dispose of them (I took a couple out myself, just for your info!) Another tank comes on the the steps in the middle of the plaza but it's easy to peak around the corner and target it. Use your 'tab' again and you can see where the next tank is, I just pointed my cursor and clicked in a few different places in the general direction and the airstrike came and took it out! I didn't have visual and not even a diamond to tell me where it was! I then ran across the street (on the left of the embassy as you look into the plaza) and hid in the shadows under the arcade and threw a few grenades over the wall where a few soldiers are hiding (in front of the embassy) Slowly bring your men, 1 at a time, forward until you locate where the gunfire is coming from and send a few more grenades in that direction. Carefully (and slowly!) make your way back into the embassy. There are still 1 or 2 (I think they are snipers) enemies left, you just have to gently ease your men forward until one of them takes them out. I lost 1 of my men like this but after about 30 unsuccessful attempts at this, who cares! Eventually the helicopter arrives. I sent my remaining man out first in case there were any snipers, but he wasn't fired at so I suppose I must (er, we!) have got them all. Then into the chopper and off we jolly well go! I was really frustrated with this part of the game but with patience it is not so hard. It took me 54 minutes from when the embassy blows up though! It's also important to have the sight on your rifle, a machine gun just doesn't cut it. I also had to go back to the previous level to restock my weapons!

 | What i did was to keep your 3 men down on the ground , I went up top with sniper gun , got the 3 men from the left side , shot the men in the truck coming from the top-lift , then i sat all the way back , and waited for the tanks , and called an air-strike - on the first tank , coming from the right, then i got to the stairs and waited for the 2 tank , be careful , this is the hard part , timeing is everything , i got as close to the top of the stairs , so i can see over ,the tank comes from the far side - alittle lift , you have to be fast to get the 2 tank . If this does not work for the 2nd tank , run down to main ground , little lift at bottom of stairs , hide there, and work around the broken wall. | t2m9a 04/07/2007 20:13 |
 | funny that most of the posts complain bout this level and badmouth the game or the maker(UBI) but it just shows thst they are not very good problem solvers.

| well-- it took a while but i beat this level with most of RAWDEM's stratadgy. with a few adaptations. I used the upstairs far right room as a snipers point and bounced back and forth from right to left sighting and shootin worked pretty well. yes this level is by no means easy and if the rest of the game is anything like it it will take me quite a few enjoiable hours to get through. my rating for this game is a solid 8+.
I do agree that the AI of my help is sorley lacking in assistance, I was left with only Allen and he was in the red . Never the less you guys that are complaining about it--- buck up and keep at it you will get through it with the right timing

| It took me a few tries but this is what I did: I placed my ghosts left (heavy gunner), upstairs of the embassy (sniper), and behind the wall on the right (heavy gunner). I ran across to the monument and floated around. I figured out, after a few tries, where the tanks were coming from and used the monument as cover to sight in for the Apache attacks. Even after the first tank I ran across the street to the monument and floated around there. I got the gunners on the armoured (ya, I'm Canadian-hence the "ou" in amoured) trucks and other my ghosts cleaned house on the rest but I tagged a few b/c we had a nice little cross fire going. If your use the monument you can get the tanks before they set up infront of the embassy. Hope this helps. | Izingad 03/04/2007 23:34 |
| one way to beat this level is to order your men to run behind the embassy once you've evacced the VIP. The marines will unfortunately be sacfificed as there is no way of ordering them to fall back with you. Peek around the corners of the wall and pick off any tangos that chase after you behind the building. one of the tanks will climb up the central plaza where the huge monument and should be visible enough from behind the embassy for you to pick it off with the apache. Once that's been dealt with, it's just a simple matter of carefully picking off the attacking tangos that will now be lingering around the embassy and hiding behind the cars in front of the embassy. Also be wary of the second tank in the far corner of the monument plaza. | Wolfleader 21/03/2007 16:29 |
| To Winnie. Good for you :). Actually, can't imagine somebody really passing this level from the second go. I wasted a week trying in vain before figuring out the right tactics. | Ray 20/03/2007 09:21 |
| Yeah! This part was aweful. It almost totally ruined a sub par game altogether. Here's how I did it. Take caver behind the piling just to the left of the president. Allow your teammates to do most of the work. When the first vehicle comes rumbling into the screen, peak around the corner, zoom in and take out the gunner on the vehicle. From there, concentrate only on the tangos coming from the left. They will tru and sneak up on you. You can do this until you get the apache. Once all enemies are gone, use the apache to take out the tank. Get to the extraction zone. This will likely take you quite a few tries. Good Luck. I almost threw the damn game away trying to get this one done. Lots of cussing. LOTS!!! | Jonathan 18/03/2007 21:18 |
