One of the common problems in missions like '''Downzone''' is falling through the ground. There isn't a known fix how to solve that. One possible workaround is using a savefile [http://thehdultragamer.blogspot.in/2012/12/solution-2-to-fix-syndicate-2012-bug.html] which unlocks all chapters. As soon as the player jumps out of the vehicle  go immediately into dartmode and try to climb up. (Do not spent any points into upgrades!) This should lead to a soft landing onto the ground.

Issues unresolved

Crash when joining COOP

Sometimes a game crashes when joining a COOP game. Possible solutions include disabling Third-party overlay software like FRAPS, Steam or Xfire. Other solution is disabling voice input and output in audio settings of a game. Both solutions seem to reduce an amount of game crashes, but none fixes it fully.

Falling through the ground

One of the common problems in missions like Downzone is falling through the ground. There isn't a known fix how to solve that. One possible workaround is using a savefile [1] which unlocks all chapters. As soon as the player jumps out of the vehicle go immediately into dartmode and try to climb up. (Do not spent any points into upgrades!) This should lead to a soft landing onto the ground. This workaround however can only be used with chapter select, since the "Continue Campaign" option will always start at the final checkpoint.
