Suface Tension helicopter glitch

I am getting a glitch on Surface Tension. When I take down the helicopter on the cliff side it just falls instead of crashing into the rocks and clearing the way as I have seen on videos. I’ve tried several times and tried loading earlier saves with the same result so I cannot get past this point.

The map ID is bm_c2a5c

Don’t use the TAU cannon. Use the rocket launcher, there’s a lot of ammo around for it. Enough to kill it with the RL.

After a few hits it should lure the helicopter towards the area where it is supposed to crash. You could try ‘no-clipping’ past that area if you need to.

The TAU cannon is completely bugged with helicopters.

I did use the rocket launcher only on the first few tries (since there’s an unlimited ammo box for it). I tried the guass canon later but did the same thing.

I eventually loaded a much earlier save (several hours back) and re-did the last few chapters and that has fixed it!

So glad cos I thought I wasn’t gonna beable to finish it!
