Basic player incompetence had accounted for most, such as the time a team-mate tried to bundle Emilio into a waiting getaway car but only succeeded in shooting him in the face (attempt seven).ĪI idiocy had also played its part, like when our target undermined our tactical assault by inexplicably exiting his own vehicle to stand in front of a surprised but grateful enemy machine gunner (attempt eight).Īnd once we were undone by plain old emergent bad luck as a passing patrol of Unidad soldiers – who serve a similar function to the police force in Grand Theft Auto games, even down to incremental levels of alertness – decided to engage the gangbangers and Emilo bought it in the crossfire (attempt two). By that point the four of us playing co-op were fairly au fait with the mission’s set-up: a dozen or so heavily armed Santa Blanca cartel members holed up in a well-defended rocky outcrop near the shore of Bolivia’s Laguna Colorada, unaware that a man in their midst named Emilio was experiencing serious doubts about his long-term career prospects in the narco-terrorism business.Įight previous attempts to capture him had failed in a variety of quasi-comical ways.
O ur squad’s ninth unsuccessful attempt to extract the whistleblower was the most ridiculous.
