Rushing the hill: When you are rushing the hill under the easy
difficulty setting, just rush up the right side. If you try to kill
everyone first it will not work -- they just keep appearing.
Note: The VC appear on both sides after eliminating the first two turret
bunkers -- rushing up the right side does not work under the normal or
hard difficulty settings. Instead, stay prone and crawl up the middle.
The turrets cannot see you, and neither can the VC because they are
being suppressed by the rest of your platoon.
Another easy way to climb is to first shoot as many of the little
bunkers and people as you can on the hill from the left side in prone
position until you reach the first bamboo patch. Then, run up in
standing position and drop the grenade. It is easier to beat the hill
with two players. After the hill and while you walk through the rice
patties and village, watch out for enemy snipers. They are on you all
the time.
General strategies:- Treat every
level like a real combat situation. Continually advance, but always get
cover as soon as possible. Take as much time as needed, within reason.
Never enter a building without throwing in a grenade first, or if there
is windows, aim your sight at them from a safe distance while keeping
cover. Your sight will show you where they are. Remember, if you do not
advance quick enough VC and NVA will keep appearing in surrounding
areas, including behind you in some levels. Discarding your M16 is
always a must. Try using an AK47, as there is more than enough of them
laying around. If done correctly, you will never be short on ammunition.
Take the tunnels slow; sometimes you will get face to face with the
enemy crawling the other way. |
