Toughest co-op mission? Snakepit!
I don't know how hard it is.. for any one else... but it's like the merc's can see through picth black darkness. i got thermal with a SR-25. AND THEY'RE JUST SHOOT ME WITH A MK.48 STANDINGH UP WITH OUT A FRONT GRIP AND A LOW SCOPE LIKE IT'S A sniper rifle. i charge in the middle and just use my mk.48 bipod and ext. clip.s and just shoot into the darkness.I mean the merc's in the buidlign just start shooting at the wall like they have Xray vision. post hear for the hardestmap. oh yeah. IT'S on admiral diffuculty.

I dont remember that mission on Campaign mode too well, but in Instant Action, have one person grab an M4A1/M16A2 (I perfer the M16) with M203 Smoke and the extra M203 Smoke.

There are 5 places you need to use the 6 smokes you have (going up the middle, in order):

1. At the end of the first statue
2. At the middle concrete circle
3. At the concrete thing with the walls entrance
4. At the other end of the concrete thing with walls
5. And lastly, at the half wall thats right before the building

If you shoot M203 Smokes at all of these places, you will make it in the building every time unseen (JUST IGNORE ANY MERCS; DONT SHOOT AT THEM!)

I beat the whole game, Campaign and Instant Action on Admiral (that means i completed Snake pit in all 7 missions), and unlocked the R44M and the MM-1, so this^ comes from experience

PS - Oh yeah, now I'm thinking back to the Campaign mode, and I think I remember it now. Im pretty sure you dont have to kill any Mercs until you got into the building, and there was even a Secondary Objective where you had to make it to the building unspotted. If this is the case, then using the tactics above should work for you.

I DON;T GET SHOT AT. IT'S MY TEAMMATE.S THEY ALWAYS GO RIGHT OR LEFT NEAR THE BUILDING I JUST GO UP THE MIDDLE AND KILL ANY MERCS I CAN SEE. DAM THE SMOKE. ILL RUN ACROSS THE FIELD IF I HAVE TO GET IN THE BUILDING BACK ENTRANCE I JUMP AND SHOOT IT'S FUN AND CRAZY AND KIND OF DUMB. I DIE 40 percent of thetime. but i always pack the m79 with smokes. anbd frag. then i use a m4a1 with a laser and a F303 ROUNDS i use them to stun merc's then i kill them.

I used the SR-25 and the medium scope. Just be patient clearing out the courtyard and be stealthy. I jumped on the hedges by the house and layed down to snipe em. Then just go down the stairs at Papa and make your way.

Well your main problem is your not following orders, one of your PRIMARY objectives are to avoid being seen to maintan stealth.

IT's actually quite easy, at the very start of the mission before you enter the courtyard, there is a toll booth on the far right side that puts you on the right side of the map on the other side of a wall. All you have to do is move slowly staying beneath the wall until you get closest to the front door and silently snipe the MErc's closest to the door, you won't evenhave to worry about the merc's in the middle.

I used the same thing. It allowed me to snipe and be able to fight in close combat.

Load yourself with M203 Smokes-Silencer

AmmoPack and White Smoke Grenades

Run through the entire map throwing smokes, you win.
