THE WORST MOST BORING MISSION IN MOHAA - Page 2

sniper town was the best! It was so intense, and you didn't know where they were! Good times, I hate it when you only have to shoot forward because that's the only place the guys are. I thought it was sweet

STOP COMPLAINING THE CAMPAIGN WAS AWESOME

I LOVED the snowy forest! The Germans DID NOT spot me first. I snuck up on them. That was the best level. Great atmosphere. When I first saw it, I thought this is the best game atmosphere I have ever seen.

Sniper town pissed me off. I thought it would be fun. Nope. You don't have a chance to play it as it was supposedly intended. After the first couple of snipers, I could never spot one before I was sniped. As soon as they are in your line of sight, they see you, even if you don't see them. They could even shoot me several times and I had no idea where it was coming from, even with the red flash on the compass. I just couldn't see the darn enemies. They could be behind foliage, etc. So annoying. My tank team had to take most of them out for me. And I was supposed to be the one protecting THEM! Poorly done level. Don't even try to tell me you saw them first. You just had to stay alive while your team did the killing.

i got most of the snipers but it took a long time and lots of loading. would have to sneak barely out from around corners with scope on.

Why don't you bother to acctually read the damn thread before you blurt out something stupid?

Shelly, the Chief and that Freakaloin character have a lot in common ... they're both incoherent twits.

Anyway, regarding the snowy forest missions: I enjoyed them. The wide-open atmosphere was a nice change of pace compared to the slow gameplay of the prior mission, or the cramped quarters of the u-boat mission, and so on.

When I played it, I sniped through a large part of it. Stuck to the very edges of the map, working from the left on the first map and the right on the second. Before I even got to the flak cannons I was able to take out all the snipers and eliminate all the machine gun emplacements while retaining 100 percent health. From there, it was easy enough to take out a few perimeter guards at the cannons before charging in guns blazing.

Sniper town: I just got done replaying sniper town tonight, and despite playing at a higher difficulty than my first time around, the going is a lot easier. Once you know the trouble spots and the best way to get around, it can be done with far less frustration. I got those first three guys you meet up with to come along to town hall, which made that fiasco a lot easier.

Regarding sniper town (first part), anybody have this experience? Immediately after the first little avenue, you turn a corner and there is a sniper up in a mill tower to your left and two guys in a little blown out building to your right. (where you complete the first objective) When I crossed into that area, three allied soldiers came out from behind some rubble; I led them to the starting point, where I had my other guys. *SIX* allied soldiers altogether, and that's before meeting with my tank squad. Sadly, I got sniped and was not able to repeat their appearance.

So, anybody? What is the trigger to bring these guys into the game? What happened?

Whooa...didn't see that...got my first three (the guy with smg and two with rifles) to the second portion and met up with the medic and the other guy on the second floor. I thought their was only 5. You must have triggered some surprise allied spawn. I luckily got my five to the tiger..Did you get your little bazooka-medic surprise level?...

Shoegaze99 · 02-10-2002, 06:37 AM

No, I didn't. Remember, I somehow triggered those three allies in the first sniper town map, not the town hall map, and was killed before I could save the game with them in it.

And as far as the town hall goes, I was far less patient this time around and used more brute force than my first time through, having a full squad and all, so did not take town hall with all of my guys.

I still want to know who the hell those three allied soldiers were, however.

josh88 · 02-10-2002, 07:09 AM

I'll be dammed..your right..Just replayed that level and "dog"ed myself and ran to that spot and..yep..their was a medic crouching behind the wall. Restarted the mission, trying to bypass any tripwire, which sets the first 3 following me..."noclip"ed myself and flew to that point and lo and behold, two soldiers crouching behind the wall... meandered back to the first three...they're still standing at the beginning..did a 180 and headed back to the other two but they were gone and no dead bodies lying around....I guess, the trick is to "quickly" dispense with the beginning snipers to be rewarded with more troops...

Mustang · 02-10-2002, 07:10 AM

Those guys are hiding behind the wall next to the mill.

I loved the sniper level, you have to move really slowly through it. It's like your hunting the Wehrmacht. Once you get to know generally where the sniper positions are and where they generally hide it's a blast.

As for the snow forest level, I have to admit im not a huge fan but if you move slowly enough you can spot the enemy before they see you. You do have to move very slowly and quietly and just keep on scanning every few steps. When you spot a flak gun, try to find the positions of all the guards before opening fire on them and watch out for the snipers on the tops of the hills. It can take you a while but ive gotten through that level with only 5 hits.

I will agree while Snowy Forest's ambience was excellent just the whole setup kinda sucked. Oh well... And someone mentioned the Sniper Town.... That map was good but those damn snipers did end up pissing me off badly. However it did leave you feeling like you were in WWII and what the Soldiers of that war went though. Kudos to the game.

RangerOne · 02-10-2002, 09:27 AM

I can say that the most frustrating/aggravating missions were "Sniper's Last Stand" and "The Bridge" at the end of "The Hunt For King Tiger." The escape in the final mission wasn't exactly a walk in the park either.

With the exception of a disapointing ending, there's NOTHING boring about MOHAA!

I didd'nt like the missions where you're a loner with a silenced pistol...No one in WW2 would have been doing that...only James bond.

Lt_Yeager · 02-10-2002, 09:39 AM

AHHH!!! I didn't like that Sniper Town level... They would like pop up in the most indescrete places and you could barly see them. I spent like two days trying to beat it with like an hour on and off. Lots of reloading. Guess I just suck at snipering in the game... too bad.
