Hey gang...

Anybody have any tips for the second half of the Little Mesa Massacre mission? I get through the sniper and "transiting to the bunkers" portion OK, but when it comes time to defend the bunkers, Hiro keeps getting clocked, which is stupid in my book. Soldiers die in war, so who cares, from a mission completion point of view, if I lose 1 dude defending the civilians? Anyway... I tried the same tactics intergalactic and myself are using in the Civic Center mission, which should work here since the goals and layout are essentially the same, but they just don't work as Hiro apparently doesn't know how to stay alive - you know, shoot back, try to not to get hit, etc.

Any advice?

I originally had the same problem . . . Hiro is getting clocked by a group of Battlepods that come up behind him. While almost all of the pods come from the left side where the drop pods are, there is one group that comes up from behind you and Hiro. As soon as the mission starts change into guardian mode and take out the first batch of battlepods infront of you. Then turn around and and get the ones the are coming from behind and around the corner where the city would be. I can't remember if they come during the second or third wave of troops so watch for them on your radar. After that it should be smooth sailing. Another batch will come from behind Hiro later but at that point you should have most of the drop pods and battlepods destroyed so they shouldn't be much trouble.

I had problems with this mission too, but i really isn't dificult. After you destroy all the recon pods, fly ahead and destroy all the battle pods and the reentry ship on the right. Next fly to the city and destroy the reentry ship with missles, then the battle pods in the city. Next destory the other reentry ship and the the battle pods that come around the mountain. They fly back to the right of the bridge and destroy those battle pods. finnaly wait hovering above the city untill the last reentry ship comes in. Thats not as hard as it might sound. Just use your missles on the reentry ships and you should be fine.

Where youre stuck at, you should stay in guardian mode, and hold down the missle button to target the first wave of battlepods. Just stay close to Hiro, and slowly move in while shooting missles. This mission took me about 10 tries to beat, but its nothing compared to Cat's Eye (ive played that mission more than 20 times lol. and still cant beat it.

for cat's eye, you just need to release a decoy every 5 seconds or so and keep close to the actual cat's eye. this will deflect most missiles. you needn't fire a single shot!

Hey, you wrote that FAQ didnt you? I tried that and it didnt work for me .

no i didn't write the FAQ i just read it. but i got it to work.

stay in guardian mode and don't move. boost to move forward to keep up with the cats eye all the while strafing to avoid battle pod fire. keep searching for the fighters by toggling your target, everytime you see one, launch three sets of missles and you're good to go.
