Slip the serpent's coils

Description
A single player mission with a focus on polish and realistic jungle combat. After a successful mission deep in enemy territory you are now tasked with moving to pickup and re linking with your spotter. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, "the only easy day was yesterday"...

Surviving contact involves tactic and thought, not run and gun. You decide whether to use stealth, go loud or a combination of both. Combat has been randomised, so you may traverse the entire jungle and see nobody or you may get engaged five or six times. When you do get engaged it will be by a random number of units. An auto save system ensures that you will not be shot in the back after thirty minutes of trudging through jungle.

This is the third part of a three part set of missions. The previous missions are:

Escape the snake pit (1/3)

Once bitten, twice shy (2/3)

Impossible survive to full enemies jungle concentrate (3-4-5 enemies for patrol ) without continuous save progress and dead and restore progress. It Is impossible win VS the patrols (each time that i get automatic save game, i know that a patrol stay near me and i change direction because i cant win VS the patrol). but i ask me: " is normal and possible to play in those condictions ? It has sense ? you have your response .... :steamfacepalm:

no comment this absurd mission ! :steamfacepalm: too much enemies (what do you do to design this nightmare mission ?). a
At exfil with hucopter last task, I cant get up on helicopter and i dead 10-15 time (try). All get up helicopter and i stay land ! The helicopet leave the airbase but the task isnt recognized and it go arrond of airbase and enemies fire it (i was fight but i was dead too much time for continue the mission "MASSACRE ON TUVANAKA AIRBASE"). I think so your mission design do that players leave from ArmA game ! The players save dead and save progress like as me 30-40-50 time aprox. ! Is possible play on this mode ? ArmA isnt pay for win game or fire to all ! The first and second mission are nice but this is a garbage mission ! Sorry but thanks for your job. :steamfacepalm: :steamsad: :steamsalty: :steambored:

@edjeedje Again thank you so much for your in depth and honest feedback. I can't fix the AI but I can fix up other things mentioned.

I truly wanted to do a real time cut scene but I had issues with certain things... I'll definitely take this on board though and implement real time cuts in future releases.

**SPOILER ALERT**
The cut scene was completely faked, in the game there are actually two of everything, two VTOLS, two sets of pilots, two mongoose's (mongeese??). If you watch the cutscene in third person then the fakery is completely revealed... so I cheated and locked it out so that wasn't an option. TBH it was more lazy programming, I could have done the scene properly but at the time it just seemed like a lot of extra work for not much gain.

@30RMCOMMS Thanks a lot for taking the time to comment, and thanks for such a good endorsement! I will try keep it up.

Very nice mission, challenging mission. This time I was not able top defeat the patrols. After a lot of reverts I decided to crawl away from each patrol. That worked.
I liked the cut-scene before entering the VTOL, but waiting for it 'real time' would have worked for me too as it's more realistic. Nice plot twist.
I liked this mission. What I did not like (but is most probably not your fault) is that my team does not listen. They stand up when I order to go prone, they crawl in all directions except the one where I order them to go; but worst of all... they broke 'hold fire' several times.
But hey, you can't have 'm all.
All in all, loved it!
I hope that one day I'll be able to make scenario's like this.
