OK I'm on the mission where you have to escape the cathedral with the dead 6 before Nod nukes it. I'm on the part where its just you and Hotwire running to get to the SAM's. In the long stretch of road right before the first SAM, Hotwire keeps running ahead of me and getting herself killed before I can dispatch the Buggies, APC's, rocket soldiers, Blackhand, and flamethrowers, effectively ending the mission. If I try and run and destroy all the Noddies before she can get to them, then I get killed rather quickly. Been trying this for ages and I can't figure it out, HELP please!

I had the same problem. Hotwire isn't dying. She can't be killed, none of them get killed. What's happening is the Sam site is being blown up by the enemies - and it's NOT supposed to be blown up. Run down there and spam rockets all over, blow up the vehicles, than go around and kill the Nod guys, don't blow up the Sam thing.

yeah, hotwire can die and those nod guys will try to blow the sam site also. you need to be fast, try to take out those 2 armoured personal from far away and snipe at the black hand. then only you destroy the nod buggy. hotwire won't rush tto the sam site as long as the nod buggy is there. she'll receive some hit from the nod buggy and back off so if you stay far away destroying staff, she will stay at a corner. i'm sure you can do it. i'm in the same level playing commando difficulty and facing a lot of problem on my way to destroy SSM. shooting from far is the best way to survive

I think if you stay back and don't walk past the first building at the corner then she won't run down the road. She'll move when you move in that direction though. So, hit the buggy and APC with whatever you can. I used my rocket launcher. Snipe the black hand that is on the porch. Keep using the building for cover if you need to reload. When Hotwire makes her run, try to get in front of her or close enough that you can cover her easily. When she turns into the little area with the SAM then you need to follow her in there and use the SAM site for cover to kill the 2nd APC. Make sure you kill any FT's from a distance. The SAM site can blow up so don't worry about that.

I'm on this mission right, and keeping Hotwire alive isn't a problem for me...the problem is that i don't have enough time to despatch all the Nod's before the Nuke hits us. I mean the quickest i could do is up to the Nod Buggy and then i have like 10 secs left before impact, no way i can do it!! Any tips?? Ak.

Akira It might depend on the difficulty setting, but I'm wussing it in Recruit level ( ), and you have PLENTY of time. Make sure you're going out of the same cathedral door as the others - i.e. the shortest distance to the corner where the APCs are waiting.Just rocket the APCs and mow down the infantry. Keep in mind that you don't to get too far, just enough so EVA says "minimum safe distance achieved". Good luck.

Actually, I'm having the same problem with Hotwire. I've tried coming around the ruined buggy and sniping the guys in the garage, but Hotwire keeps running out in the street and getting shot. I've tried running down the street with her, and she gets whacked. She's suicidal. I'd love to find an alternate way to get her there, but going back up is impossible.
