I am on legendary at the moment and have had the same issue but in a different level, it did still allow me to finish the level.  She jumped over a cliff into a river and I never saw here again... althouth I could still hear her occasionally.

Oh and killing the zealot seemed easier in legendary than normal... oddly.

But legendary as a whole is pretty tough I am finding.... 3 more levels to go.

Just wait until the last level.....

Im actually dreading that!

Ha yeah its not impossible but it sure as hell kicked my ass!

Like priteshmodi said, these parts are annoying. The last part on the "last level" was because there was no good weapon ammo left anywhere, so I had to kill the last few remaining Brutes with plasma pistols. The other part before you get on the cannon is easy though.


Oh I was referring to the cannon part. It was annoying because it was my first time playing the part and you pretty much have to follow a pattern on which phantom to shoot in a certain order on Legendary. Developing the pattern through multiple deaths was the annoying part.

Oh man, I waited in a corner and got in the cannon right at the last second to make "the shot." I did it easy mode and I'm not really proud of myself.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Lol, that is awesome. I was waiting for my replacement 5.1 headset to be sent back to me before I dove in for my second go round. Well Fedex dropped them bad boys off yesterday and I started on Legendary. The game kicks ass. If I'm getting my ass handed to me for too long, I may puss out like you did :)



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

I didn't have to figure out a pattern lol I just shot at each one I saw and got though the whole part with only 1 death.

Glad you got through. SPOILERS!  Got the cannon part on trial and error but the baddies just before that held me up for hours.  I was trying to use that shoulder fired plasma cannon and the backblast was killing me more often than them.  Eventually I spotted the second Engineer, then started going outside to find a savepoint after each kill.  Getting them all straight time was going to be impossible for me.  They were taking like 20 BR headshots or a plasma grenade, a half dozen shotty blasts and a rifle butt before they went down.  Three or four from a plasma rifle was all '6' could handle.   

I thought it was much harder than H3.  The Hunters could spin on a dime and take a lot more damage.  Did anyone bother killing the four in the office building on Legendary?  I just hit the jammer and ran like a rabbit.  The brutes were pushovers compared to the best of the elites and some weapons seemed way overpowered in Covenant hands, then almost useless when I got them.  There was always one weapon or one strategy that got the job done though.  I was having flashbacks to Gaiden II and those bastids at Tecmo for a while.  Yelling stuff at the screen.  I've got a BP cuff, I should have taken my pulse and pressure during the worst of it.  "severe hypertension, seek medical assistance".
