So I'm to the last boss, and what's her name is telling me to use the tac gun. I cannot get a ****ing lock on the cannon, and I've been aiming at it for 10 minutes.
Anyone?

I had the same problem, it has to be a bug or something. I just kept at it and finally it let me lock on.
make sure that you're fighting the LAST boss which is the alien ship not the spider thing and make sure that you load the save game from the autosave and not a custom one or sometimes it won't lock on.

Yes, and make sure you don't do it while behind cover, move to open space, and target the left arm first.

You can only use it when psycho tells you to use the TAC cannon to blast it. After lowering its shields. Thats when you aim for the extreme left portion of the ship. You do the same for the right side.

I had the same bug. Quitting and reloading fixed it for me.

:headexplode:
I hope that works. I reloaded my savegame several times, but I'll try quitting the program and restarting tonight when I get home. And I'll go for the autosave...
MAN. What a ****ty place for a glitch! You have got to be kidding me! :banghead:
I am convinced that they rushed this out the door... the first levels are much better than the last levels.

Can you even use the tac cannon before the end boss?
Theres 10 rounds in that thing and you only need 2 (or is it 3)
Having the screen full of an alien ship and the gun saying no target is a complete wtf

I think I had four or five rounds on Delta.

I had only five rounds.
the idea if not being able to fire the weapon freely is obvious. not letting the player wasting these rounds in other things & then get stuck when fighting the mothership.

I was so frustrated last night. The reload thing better fix it, or I'm sending Bigman to Crytek.

I keep falling through the carrier deck, didn't have this problem anywhere else in the game only in the last 15 minutes of the game. About to finish, about to finish, nope, falling through the deck...and dead. Everything was aces till this part, can someone say need patch! :D

Well it seems to be a bug... I replayed the level and when I got to where I was stuck, I was able to lock on immediately.
Much easier to succeed when I can actually fire the TAC. :rolleyes:

at the end I had to shoot out the panel on the alien ship with the gauss rifle because the rocket launcher wouldn't work for some reason(I couldn't drop the damn thing for a new one). The thing looked like it was on fire and it was my last ditch effort because I was surrounded and luckily it blew up with just one shot and let me get the nuke in there :lol:

I thought that gun had unlimited ammo?
Happened to me, well something similar anyway...
I forgot to get the TAC gun and then re-loaded the whole level and some of the special effects did not even load! Then the fire was not present at the deck either...
After restarting the level a few times I finally got everything loaded, but then it started to VERY inconsistent in terms of FPS...:(
To blast open the panel under the alien ship go near the door you came in and look towards the panel, you will see few beams of light coming from the panel, go under the beam of light and aim your gun at it and it will lock on.

I believe it does... at least that is what it says it has.
