Follow this guide to take down the massive alien warship in Crysis Part 27. Learn how to defeat its defenses, protect Helena, and escape the chaos.
Alright, let's tackle this massive alien warship in Part 27 of Crysis. It's a big one, but we'll break it down. First things first, you need to deal with those turrets. A well-aimed missile shot from your TAC Cannon is your best bet, but the minigun or even a few precise Gauss Rifle shots can also do the trick. Just keep in mind it'll take several Gauss rounds to bring them down.
Once those turrets are silenced, get ready for a swarm of flying squid. Your main job here is to thin their numbers so Helena, who's in the VTOL, can get close enough to disable the warship's shields. Watch out for its concussive blast – it's telegraphed by a streak of blue energy. If you see it, get out of the way immediately, or you'll be starting this section over.
After you've taken out a couple of the squid, Psycho will swoop in with the VTOL, and Helena will manage to hack down one of the warship's shields. Now it's your turn to grab the TAC Cannon. Acquire your target – those big, highlighted appendages on either side of the ship – by holding L1. Then, unleash a tactical nuke by pressing R1 to destroy the first shield. Keep an eye out for more flying squid while you're doing this, as you'll need to provide cover fire for the VTOL. Once Helena drops the second shield, use the TAC weapon again to take it out.
The warship will then move in close, hovering right over the carrier, and start spitting out even more squid. Your next objective is to blast open the hatch on its underside. This will allow you to use the TAC Cannon to destroy it for good, but the squid will be swarming you like crazy. If you can land a missile or two on the hatch, it'll open up. Gauss Rifle rounds or minigun fire will also work, but they take longer, and those squid are relentless. Once the opening is clear, aim the TAC Cannon and fire. The monstrosity will start to crumble, but don't get caught underneath it when it falls!
Now, you need to get to the VTOL. There will still be squid trying to stop you, so make your way through the burning rubble to the VTOL located at the waypoint on the flight deck. As you lift off, you'll see the alien craft collapse onto the carrier. After you rescue Helena, who's dangling precariously over the Pacific Ocean, a massive energy burst erupts from the dying warship. It and the carrier vanish into the ocean in a swirling vortex.
Your escape from the alien horrors is now secured. It seems Prophet survived the Sphere and the nuclear blast, and new intel places him on their turf, fighting the invaders. Nomad can't leave him behind, so it's time to join Prophet and take the fight to them. Nomad is on his way. Semper fi!
