Rockets and the Pinger

Post » Thu Jul 02, 2009 6:12 pm

The other night I got to the Pinger fight.

I had a JAW with 2 rockets ready to go. So I switched over and moved out of the left side of the diner you're in. I pulled out the JAW and it gave me the 1/1 telling me I had 2 rockets.

I came out of stealth and then moved behind some cover and stealthed again. Went to shoot and I only had 1/0 this time. I hadn't shot yet but somehow lost a rocket.

I redid this fight about 10 times and each time I would magically be down one Rocket. I tried it different ways and each time one would just disappear.

I'm not too concerned about it since I am well past that point now. I just wanted to see if anyone else had this issue or anything like it?

Nop I didn't have that problem tho I did have an other one, at the other side of that area, where the trains are located, there's a hole that you can go into. There should be a JAW inthere too. First time I played it there was one, second time I played it, it wasn't... Sometimes I saw it and sometimes I didn't.

Strange, but I used an other method to kill the pinger, since using a JAW didn't really work for me. I used the mounted weapon, detached it and shot him in the nutsac. xD

I love planting two packs of C4 on them and then detonating them both at the same time!

I had a similar problem. Each time I would die while trying this on Supersoldier, I would immediately switch to the JAW. At first it will say I have 1/5, then it will be reduced a few seconds later to 1/1 and the JAW won't work unless I switch to one of my primary weapons and then re-select the JAW. Very annoying.

Really? Just cloak and flank.
Go invisible, run around the side and get behind (with your C4 armed), toss a couple on the soft spot of his backside.

By the time you are running away, your cloak should be running out of energy, so you detonate the C4.
When the C4 detonates, it staggers the pinger and gives you an extra couple seconds to get behind cover and recharge your nanosuit.

You have to do this procedure twice to kill the pinger, but I have no trouble with it.
