Shipyard Mission

I am trying to beat the 4th mission in the campaign since deciding to play. I am having no luck whatsoever completing it without casualties. Green and Gold team usually end up getting slaughtered at some point. My team (red) tends to do better, though obviously I have my moments too. Anyone have any recommendations for this one?

I never let the teams operate on their on; rather, I complete a portion of the mission, then switch to the next group and complete thier portion and so on. The AI is too stupid to take care of themselves.

How do you switch between teams? I for all intents and purposes did this last night and just about had it, except I didn't switch between teams, I just led my team through the entire complex.

I went low and slow with my team, palms sweating on the mouse and keyboard like you wouldn't believe. By the end each clip was down to around 20 rounds or less. I was using L85A1 with silencer and scope on full auto. I love that thing. It really is becoming my new favorite. Quiet, reasonably accurate, and deadly. And I had almost all of the kills. My team mates did save my ass once or twice I will give the AI that much.

Then I foolishly gave into trusting the AI. I had completed the entire mission except for storming the last room. I gave the (second) Alpha Go and green, a team of 3 elite counter terrorist operatives, got themselves completely wiped out by two terrorist. I should have just led my team into the room and I would have had it. Grrrrr

So then naturally I was not being patient and started getting killed left and right so I gave it up last night. In a couple days when I'm ready to do it right again I'll go for it and win it, now that I know I can.

Those bastards paid.

I had 23 kills. Me sidekick scored 7. All in all not too bad despite the last terrorist clipping two of us. I can live with injuries though since they only last once mission. Cool beans. Now another hostage rescue. I hate hostage rescues. :twisted:
