ZombiePanties Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Let's look at this logically. Only 4 people can fit in the chopper. Petrovic equals 5. At the start of Hangman's Noose, if 4 people are in the room, don't immediately run and get the chopper. It doesn't save any time because at least one person still has to drive and get a chopper to fly to the safe zone. It actually takes longer because less Noose agents get killed while you run away to get a needless helicopter. Stay and fight. Then when Petrovic is collected, the entire team can go to the helipads.

Pat Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I find it easy for one person to get one of the two parked Enforcers, get Petrovic, and go to the safe zone, while everyone else just flies there. Those things can really soak up a sh*t load of bullets, which doesn't even matter considering the police barely shoot you if you keep up a good momentum.

No, it's much faster and you get the same amount of money if you collect Petrovic in the Enforcer and drive to the Helipads. Then your crew gets however many helicopters you need and go to the safe zone. Driving all the way to the safe zone is never effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Well, it is for me personally. Everytime I take the Annihilator, the one driven by the NOOSE team shoots me out of the sky within seconds. I take the Enforcer, worst I get is some cops following me with the default pistol. Speed isn't really an issue if you ask me. You're making an easy $4500, you could try to have a little patience.

Speed is an issue because the majority of us want to make the money as fast as possible. I can guarantee that you've never completed the mission in 2:40 or less by driving to the safe zone. People that actually know how to play the mission consistently get it in a fast time. Those that drive ruin it for everybody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 People that actually know how to play the mission consistently get it in a fast time. Those that drive ruin it for everybody else. Yeah, but not nearly as much as the idiots who fly to the rendezvous, land, fire wildly around the people waiting, then fly off halfway across the map and just do nothing. I've also had a lot of people destroy the Enforcer or Annihilator I was waiting in just by flying straight into it. You'd be surprised how little people there are that can actually fly the damn thing. Whatever floats your boat, I guess. You play your way, I play mine. It's all for fun, after all.

vettefan88 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 hangmans noose has a very straight forward, specific method for quick completion. and it's the only method people should follow for consistent completion of it. guy 1 and 2 go get helis. guy 3 and 4 stay and fight off the SWAT guy 1 flies back to petrovic and picks up him along with guy 3 and 4 while guy 1 does that, guy 2 flies to the extraction point and waits on the pitchers mound guy 1 then flies to the extraction point crashing into guy 2. mission complete. anybody that strays from this mission plan will not only aggravate the rest of your team, but it will most likely double to triple the time it takes for completion. nothing pisses me off more than when I arrive to pick up petrovic and somebody has already loaded him into a SWAT van and is hauling him out of there. you're screwing up the way everybody else in the room was cooperating with it, and your wasting our time. we all have patience, but when it's taking longer because one guy wanted to risk the whole mission with a joy ride, then my patience runs thin.

dimitriev Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Sometimes when you take the entire team to the helipads in the airport, the cops swarm and destroy the chopper or get pretty damn close to destroying it, as there is no cover. the best thing to do in hangman's NOOSE like vettefan88 said, is to get 2 people into the golf cart at the very beginning, and drive to the helipads. there are usually 2 or 3 choppers there, so one flies to the safe zone and one goes and picks up the other 3 including Petrovick, then after you pick them up you make a crash landing in the safe zone, and you win right then and there. I've done this dozens of times, and every single time my team has gotten this done in just a little over 2 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jocool32 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Yeah, I agree, I'm not some nut playing Ranked games (that really don't matter anyway) who only wants to do it the same way, everytime. If I wanted that I'd just keep playing WoW. In fact, I wish they had changed it up dynamically or randomly a little more in the game by changing the locations of the drop and sometimes not having helis available, etc. Make it interesting at least... try getting him there with motorcycles!

Bigflips Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I agree. Making the co-op missions more random would spice up the game play. But then again, the achievement " fly the co-op" would become very difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackMilk Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 There's nothing wrong with either taking a Noose van or an Annihilator. The choppers don't nearly take as much damage as the van so they'll either need protection or to pick up Petrovic and get out REAL FAST (after which it's dead-easy), and the Van is a sure way to win, as said, takes up a crapload of gunfire and driving to the safe zone is a piece of cake, even with wheels missing. You can hardly say that someone who drives with Petrovic, thus eliminating chances of doing a speedy run, is screwing up the game for the rest. Likewise it's not senseful to say someone who attempts to do the run with a chopper does that. (as I've said before myself, so, my mistake) It's a PUBLIC game and the majority of the players (at least anyone who cares about winning) has the aim of just getting Petrovic to the end. If you want to do it within a certain amount of time and not have a stranger picking him up in a van and riding off, then play a PRIVATE GAME WITH OTHERS WHO THINK ALIKE. Same story other way around. -And yeah I too hoped for a bit more flexibility in the co-op missions, how hard can that be to implement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is absolutely the fastest way. If I only played with friends, I'd only do this method. Unfortunately, when you have one or two random people in, what inevitably happens when two of you go off to the choppers, they either end up following you or getting killed. If that doesn't happen, they'll have a car by the jet and drive off as soon as Petrovic gets in. The problem is made worse because of course they won't have a mic, so it'll end up being 3 people waiting on the pitchers mound for 5 minutes. My suggestion at first makes it so that the experienced guys can grab Petrovic and make sure he gets in a chopper. NO matter what level the other players are, they usually hop in the Enforcer with petrovic and will get the idea when you drive to the helipads.

It actually takes longer because less Noose agents get killed while you run away to get a needless helicopter. Stay and fight. Then when Petrovic is collected, the entire team can go to the helipads. The easiest way is just to kick one of the four out of the game. It's harsh, but then you don't have to worry about a 5th wheel. Two stay behind, one gets to zee choppa, flies back to pic the crew and Petrovic up and you can go straight to the LZ (Crashing into the marker is actually recommended). But that's way to easy and eliminates most of the fun of the match. Getting Petrovic into an Enforcer ad driving there with a 5 star wanted level is so much fun, especially as your team can shoot out the back of it. I just hate people who don't have a clue what to do (I'm talking Rank 5s and 7s here). I don't mind people having fun and making a few mistakes, but when you get an idiot piloting the Anihalator and crash landing in Bohan of all places, you got to go 'WTF are you doing you twat?!'

BlackMilk Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 You don't have to kick the other player, there's always 2 (or even 3?) choppers available at all times... Well, at least, in every Hangman's Noose game I've been in, I'm pretty sure that's constant. And if it's such a big deal to them that they HAVE to be in the same chopper as the rest of the team, well too bloody bad. Their problem. If your vehicle is full, just go. Same with Cops & Crooks, if I get a fast two-doors car, and the boss hops in as passenger, I'm not gonna wait around - it's pretty obvious no more than 2 people fit in, and waiting for the rest isn't polite, it's stupidity. Vice versa when I see someone else doing that I'm not gonna be pissed off at 'em for leaving me behind since there's NO SPACE in the car left. Same with the choppers, and if the guy is stupid enough to (this happens a lot) start shooting at your chopper out of frustration, kick him.

It's better if you have one guy in a chopper following Petrovic's van and providing air cover. I remember when I swooped in at a toll booth gunfight and sprayed the police, providing enough distraction for our guys to take out a few cops and squeeze through.

BlackMilk Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 The van is better if you want a guaranteed win I think, I've NEVER had any problems with it, except losing tires ofcourse.

I really, really hate this too. We don't need 4 helicopters and yet some idiots insist on doing just that. If you have 4 people, initially there should be three shooting the cops while one gets a chopper, then once the chopper gets back, a second guy can get a noose van, and pick up Petrovic. So everyone gets in the chopper except the driver of the noose van, he drives alone and snags his own chopper to freedom. I usually prefer this rule just to keep everyone else from screwing up.

chitoryu12 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 My biggest issue so far is the people who play like they just played for the first time, saved the game after driving to their apartment, and then started up multiplayer immediately. I remember when I took a chopper and was going to pick up Petrovic and they had already stuffed him in a van. The problem was nobody knew their way around the map, so they drove in circles around the airport exit before crashing. They jacked another car and then did the exact same thing. They had blown up five of their cars before the end of the game, and Petrovic was dead before they left the airport. Honestly, if anyone thinking about doing something as f*cking stupid as this is reading the forums, please, for the love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spook, listen to the guy in the helicopter shouting into his mic when he tells you to get in the f*cking helicopter. Don't drive around wondering where you have to go and ignore everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
