Quake 4 Hints

What do I do when the Strogg attack the trucks?

  • 1 of 6: Attack back, of course.
  • 2 of 6: There's nothing you can (or need to) do about the Strogg fliers that attack at first, but get ready for some ground assault.
  • 3 of 6: The trucks will stop in a building where Strogg infantry are attacking some other marines.
  • 4 of 6: You're still stuck in your spot on the truck, so just get your blaster out and shoot Strogg from there until the trucks start moving again.
  • 5 of 6: NOTES: The Strogg will attack from both sides, so clear them both out. And don't worry about your health or armor -- you can't be hurt on this one (which is why I recommend using the blaster in order to conserve ammo for other weapons).
  • 6 of 6: Eventually, the trucks will come to a stop at the building where the convoy is waiting, and you can get off.
