the first two challenges are easy
30 and 60 minutes of gameplay but how hard is it to win a game
i have played a handful but the team is getting wiped
do you win after summoning the horde and wiping it out
how many times does it take to get the first win
what strategies works best

2
  1. Don’t die
  2. Use infinite grenades
  3. Use obstacles(like windows or high ground)
  4. Complete tasks
  5. Reach the truck and leave
    Bonus: Look for crates, they might give you +40 points if you bring them to the truck

I only played one (and won), but did the same strat in zombie last event. just “keep mobile”.

When there are heaps, Run in a large circle. They will pile up behind you in a line. Turning around to dump a mag into the train behind you and then sprint again, rinse and repeat.

Yeah, there is no super master strategy for this game mode it’s pretty brain dead. You want an automatic and just run in loops. When you get the laser boss that just means that game wants you dead, everything else is just keep distance and shoot things or toss nades then go grab another. If you get hit bandage and go grab another

I think Tunisia FPV boss is really hard, laser boss is rather easy, just prone when his dixk glow.

after four losses i won two in a row, maybe just picked the wrong time or back luck of the draw

You win after you get to the APC and it appears after the boss fight somewhere on the map (welp I guess I was a bit too late)

Generally speaking, it’s not a bright idea to run around alone, you will get killed and your teammates might need to pick you up.

How win

I played 2 rounds of it. First one the boss was the guy who threw out the giant orb grenades. This was pretty easy.

Second round i got the boss that shoots lazers. Was completely unexpected and he downed the whole team first time he attacked with it. This one was a bit more difficult but still doable as long as you pay attention. Easier with a buddy and comms so you can tell each other when to lay down if he’s chasing you.

As far as I can tell it’s all the same objectives. Blow up the portals, kill the mini boss/bosses, send the intelligence at radio, kill main boss at altar, get to truck to win. May not be in this order.

ok i see the normandy boss now and wow the laser literally aim at the ground.

you suppose to jump or something?

12

Go prone. :slight_smile:

13

i did tho or am i suppose to be prone next to it? it kinda doing like unbrella shape laser attack (with the metal middle part of the unbrella being the boss)

14

Teammates are very important
I have done hard mode once with 1 teammates AFK
Never want to do that again

15

i had one easy but
one afk
one not included leading to it being a two man team did not even clear first objective

The hardest part of this event is not getting teammates who are dumber than the zombies on the enemy side :D. I only did that lazer boss & the one sending the blue spectres to kill you, both seemed pretty easy.

Also it seems like getting some decent SMG from the boxes is a must, with the shotgun it was pretty painfull to play.

If you get the Laser Boss just lie down and he cant hit you with his laser. Pretty much the easiest boss in this gamemode.

18

Just don’t lie down too close to him, as his laser fires upwards from the ground to begin with.

19

Tunesia is also not too hard, just run away when he does his fireflies and then turn arround and shoot fireflies with a full auto weapon, smg is optimal cause you only need to hit not lots of damage, than shoot boss until he does his superattack again. with more than 2 players doing it right its pretty easy. (Alone its very difficult without an MG or something like that)

Well you obviously dont want to be so close anyway since hes still a boss and insta kills in melee
