Call of Duty 5: World at War (PS3/360)

Re: Call of Duty 5: World at War (PS3/360)

Anyone have any advice on how to beat "Downfall" (I think - it's the first mission AFTER the Pacific missions are completed)? I'm playing on Veteran. I can get to the part where you have to plant explosives on the 4 cannons in Berlin. But, I can't get past it. I've tried it at least 2-3 dozen times. One of the difficulties is that even after blowing one of the cannons up, it doesn't save it as a checkpoint. In addition to that, wave after wave of Nazi's keep coming and they throw a crapload of grenades. There was a point during one attempt where I was hiding behind a tank and I was surrounded by 5 grenades at once with nowhere to run. I'm rather frustrated. All strategies I've tried have failed. Like I said, I can blow up one, which takes some effort, but I haven't been able advance past that. Last time I was playing is the furthest I've gotten. I have a feeling too that my AI comrades are pretty useless, if you ask me. There will be a Nazi standing several feet away from him shooting at me while they are shooting at someone on the other side of the area.

Yeah, the checkpoint kicks in after 2 of them being blown up. I suggest going for the one on the far right first (you can start from behind the bricks, directly to the right of the stair steps)... after blowing that one up, retreat to where you started, and head all the way to the far left gun... hide behind the concrete barrier, and then the tank just behind it this time... pick off the guys that are directly behind the guns and on the other side of the tank... stay low and sprint before they respawn. Plant the charges and BOOK it out of there to hide.

Thanks for the info. Makes sense. I was always trying to advance to the left side after blowing up the cannon on the far right without going back to the start, or whatever. This is easily the most difficult part I've come across in the game so far on solo veteran. I'm actually rather proud of myself that I made it this far. Doing solo campaigns in 3PS' on the highest difficulty is something I just typically don't do.

Had a blast playing this game yesterday. I was just in a zone. Especially with my new "rope a dope" strategy regarding bouncin' bettys. I kinda get out in the open for all to see, sure enough a bogey starts firing at me, I fire back a few rounds then hightail it out of site around the nearest corner/alley/street. I lay a BB just around said corner, then 7 out of 10 times the dude comes running to finish me off.....then it's Bass in you Face time!!

What's your favorite gametype?

A good old fashioned game of Team Deathmatch is always a good time. But I have found myself playing War more than the rest. I still am a big Sabotage fan as well. I thought I would enjoy Capture the Flag a lot more than I actually do.

Hardcore Search & Destroy is also good when you want to get tactical

TDM is my favorite, but I play the other ones as well. Search & Destroy, Headquarters, Ground War, and Capture the Flag get good amounts of playtime.

I usually start out with Team Deathmatch for about an hour then jump over to hardcore S & D until I get tired
