By "helicopter level" I assume you mean the RC helicopter in GTA: Vice City.
There RC plane was even worse
Funny, for me it was the RC Plane Level in GTASA.
I immediately thought of Crysis.
NES TMNT swimming bomb defusing level. Aaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
I just learned that the intent for that level is to pause the game and switch which turtle you're playing because they get a full health bar when you do.
San Andreas when you have to chase the train on a dirt bike.
All we had to do was follow the damn train!
Shaka when the walls fell
That was the final level.
we don't go to ravenholm.
nah but the level is sick tho.
Jackal snipers...
There's a level in one of the Battlefied: Bad Company games where you're ambushed by two attack helicopters in the desert and the only cover is a small building. Did I mention Bad Company has fully destructible environments and you've already fought in said building so it's full of holes before the helicopters start blowing it apart? Or that a third helicopter shows up mid-battle?
It's not too bad if you know it's coming and preserve some cover, but if the building is in bad shape when they show up then you're not going to have a fun time.
On a rail
I'm so glad Black Mesa truncated that section
I mean it's manageable, the HECU fights are always fun for me, especially with explosives. And you can just ditch the train and bhop all the way.
Now Xen+Interloper on the other hand........
those barrel mini games in Donkey Kong 64
My helicopter level was in Ninja Gaiden. Used all my healing stuff before it and couldn't beat it. Never picked it back up.
The sister bullshit fight in fallen order.
Or, all the fights actually
I wanted a hybrid easy mode for that game so bad. One hit Stormtrooper kills but smarter enemies than vanilla easy mode.
Lord of the Rings: War in the North and the fucking protect the door level
Wolfenstein's fucking helicopter level on impossible.
I know what everybody is thinking: 50 Cent Blood on the Sand, but that's a misconception, you actually mean 50 Cent Bulletproof--the one other, and less perfect, of the 2 games that exist
I was thinking earthworm jim bro.
Blood under the Sand
I was playing Mafia, and it’s a pretty cool game, then suddenly they drop in an F1 racing level where you need to grab first place against a bunch of AIs that never make a mistake.
The worst bit is, in the previous mission you did a lot of work to sabotage the rival’s car ahead of the race. So you shouldn’t even need to drive all that well to win against him, but it just forgets that.
I just never beat the race, so the game came to a halt for me.
"that fucking helicopter level", for me, refers to the rc heli missions in gta vice city
Deathstroke fight on Batman: Arkham Origins
It was certainly much better than the Deathstroke fight in Arkham Knight...
Maybe that was the one I was thinking of? It's been a while. The button repetition with insta-kill just stopped the game dead.
Depends if you were thinking of hand to hand combat with the world's greatest martial artist, or the one where they put him in a tank, because they couldn't think of anything other than tanks by that point.
I can’t think of a specific example, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it involved an escort mission.
Misty in Pokémon Blue
It'd be easily fixed with a new save, a more balanced approach, and four hours... but fuck that, I've spent two summers grinding to beat her but nope
Just go catch a Pikachu. Won't take 4 hours. A pickachu from viridian leveled against Mt Moon zubats for 10-30 minutes would wipe the floor with the whole gym.
Magic. I'll give that a punt this summer! Thank you!
Company Heroes 2 in Hard difficulty. The AI in RTS single player games tend to simply swarm you. I have to tone down the difficulty but there is little sense of satisfaction in playing easier modes.
I was stuck on the crazy missile tank dude in Armored Core 6 when I got to him because apparently he was fucked up and more OP than intended. Played through a few months ago, well after he was nerfed, and absolutely demolished the game 100%; though I credit it more to finding out that you can unlock a machine gun through the training sessions I never did. That thing just wrecks every dude in the game if you keep moving 🤣
Honestly kinda miss the OP release bosses, did my first playthrough one them, wouldn't mind a setting to turn them back on. (With the exception of Ibis because its actually harder now than it used to be)
The Trial of Tassadar
Every once in a while I decide to replay StarCraft. I always breeze through the Terran and Zerg campaigns and the first few Protoss levels. Homeland is a struggle but I can get through it. I can never seem to beat The Trial of Tassadar though. I always get destroyed before I can even venture out of my base.
More carriers
Maybe I'm an idiot, but I can't get the stupid mini game in Astral Chain where I have to balance a bunch of boxes and take them to someone without dropping them all. It adds nothing to the story afaik and it pissed me off to a point I just stopped playing altogether.
It’s me on Half Life Alyx with the blind dude who has you cornered. I legit was looking to insert a saved game to bypass this level and it seems I’m not alone with others sharing that specific save game.
It’s too damn hard 😩
Nah, not hard. Just not immediately obvious what you have to do.
Every goddamn PS2 game
