Cuba revisited..."Bay of Pigs Part Deux?"



Returning to Cuba!!
With anticipation to revisit it....


 YAY!...finally back to Cuba after being locked out.  I looked forward to this since I've been around long enough to remember anxiously waiting for Cuba to open the first time!  The achievement for completing the ruby level sat there teasing for a week...the new loot and consumables in inventory greyed out...we knew it was coming.

Then the return in true Bay of Pigs fashion for those that were the first in!
Robbing at first in Cuba left a bit to be desired (ok, more than a bit!)




Gets kind of hard to rob in Cuba when everything is locked up...wonder if it's a form of crime prevention?







Solved easy enough as I found out after..rob anywhere and still counts to the mission objectives...one hurdle down!  ON TO PART 2!  :)  (hmm..looks like it seams easy enough)



Pretty standard looking..get support as usual, no biggee!
Fight and get loot..very easy!






Getting support actually went smoother than the fighting! (huh?)  Mashing the power attack in fights yielded no results, so....doing what any of many seasoned fighters do....I mashed the power attack even faster!  Another oops!!...when the results finally would catch up...would have the ice in record time...

There is nothing like watching your stamina burn off on an iced target, and getting to watch it while you reload the fight list, scroll down to select a target, choose the next target...and still have to wait for all the attacks to finish from the last target! (wonder if I managed to ice people a second time when I was waiting)





Nice numbers! ..worth the extra stamina..








Now to check how many actually dropped for me!  :)

HUH????...WT#%@&%....(NOT GOOD!!)


Many people ran into this issue for some mysterious reason.  When contacting CS, they referred me to a link so they can count how many people were having troubles with Cuba....THE PART I DON'T GET IS WHY DO WE NEED TO VOTE TO HAVE SOMETHING FIXED!!!  If there is a problem we fix it! If they were using it to track the number of people to see how widespread the problem was...a better explanation of it is in order.

For those still with problems that they can work around and still wish to report problems, click the vote to fix button.  Think it was the fastest thing they could set up to get a count.

"As a newly released part of the game, there might be some parts that still need some tweaking. So here, the following article will fill you in with the information you need to know: "

No information or help there!..just a counter! Calling it help is cr#p!!!





 So far all the shots for the Trigger Happy items from the mission look like this..a decent return!







THIS IS WHAT I'LL BE LOOKING FOR!!..From everyone I've talked to this is not out of line.



On the plus side (I hope!!)

the word from our Headquarters is that the system will automatically grant the item that it retrieved, but if after 48 hours, you do not receive the items, contact me immediately for further assistance.

On the plus side, looks like they are trying to fix things.
Something tells me this could be long and drawn out. :( 


sigh...I gave up on my walk thru

  1. You need a LOT of cuban mercenaries. Robbing in Cuba is a good way to get them - forget fighting for the duration of this and just rob in cuba so you can collect lots of those mercenaries
