    Skywalker - Are you doing a degree in 'Hostile Waters' or something ?

    Ardy - I don't remember this being impossible. As far as I recall, you need to fail a few times just to spot where the pilot comes out. Once you see his spawning position, its easy to get up as close as you can in a chopper, and then just shoot the bejesus out of him. Think that was it. Persevere, great levels to come.

    it's great that some people are still playing this game - I used to hang out in the anteausrising web board, then it got pulled after many black outs. Anyway, reading all this has made me all nostalgic. I did complete it (w/o cheats too!) and it was notoriously hard in places - but then so rewarding when you find a tactic that worked. I can't remember much now, so can't really help - I remember you do have to sneak up from the hill top (maybe cloak?) and use the target cycle to pick off the guy - remember to use the 1st person view to take him out straight away.

    I'm just dead chuffed that someone else is getting to enjoy the game. It's such a pity the multiplayer patch didn't arrive, and that no sequel will probably ever happened. Another game that was dead good (even Digitiser thought so) but criminally forgotton
