The whip

[Guest Gareth]

okay. . . . I don't think there are any spoilers here, but I am wondering how much success anyone else is having using the whip to stop the Russkies. In one scene where you come out the back of a cave, there is a Soviet guard standing at the entryway, perched just behind a nice fat oil drum. You could, of course, just shoot the drum and watch the guard blow up. Very Lara Croft like.

 

But I want to whip the gun out of his hand. He's standing with it over his shoulder like a moron, but I can't seem to get it. The whip doesn't seem to lock on like a gun, or like it does when there is a "whippable" area on the map. Or am I just not in the right position?

 

thanks!
