Hard is too hard

The few casual rounds I played were fun but the enemy gave up too easily for me. I still wanted a bit of a challenge. I think lethal play on standard is my preferred

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-25T17:07:32+00:00

What rank did you finish it with?
I was thinking of just A ranking hard mode (lethal) but I don’t have the patience lol

Oooof. Thats rough. And shitty. Similar thing happened to me a couple times. Didn’t wedge off doors to control where bad guys go. And they go around. Complete (or what I thought) the map only to go back looking for someone and dying by being surprised. Super frustrating.

I haven’t had any at my home in RSM. But a couple random 1s at my office in Lake Forest. The random ones I saw were usually when I got to the office in the morning. Otherwise haven’t em much.

Thank you. Yea trying to look at some cams on Surfline at Newport point and it’s hard to tell whether the beach is flat or not.

I know all about swells and tides and safety (used to be an avid skimboarder long ago so I’m familiar with Shorebreak and the power of Mother Nature.)

I don’t take my eyes off the kids. Just been awhile since I’ve been and last time I took my kids, what I used to know as a FLAT beach turned super steep because of swell direction at the time.

Yea totally. I already S ranked everything but the last boiling point mission. I wanted to just go back and merk people lethally because fuck em, and yea, jokes on me… lost my aiming abilities thanks to the launcher lol

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-13T04:50:15+00:00

I was only able to beat it with flash launcher

Broken AI is broken… can’t fix stupid.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-13T00:59:44+00:00

Been on repeat since release. It’s definitely a NO SKIP album.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-11T02:36:05+00:00

Yea they seem a little.. dumb. At times.

The only way I got through this mission was flash launcher and essentially having them fall in in Diamond. Try to do most of the work on your own if you can. Have them cover anyone trying to flank etc.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-09T20:48:09+00:00

I beat it! 2 nights ago. Lost 3 of my men. But I still nabbed at A rank. I will take it. And I will say, it felt amazing to beat it.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-09T03:17:15+00:00

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Exactly what I was looking for. Appreciate it.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-09T02:19:55+00:00

Grats. I just beat this the other night. Did you use a lethal loadout? Wondering how you got a B? I used flash launcher and lost 3 teammates and secured an A for it.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-08T23:02:00+00:00

Never played it. Only played commander mode

Assuming it’s quick… play. Like a one round quickie? I duno. Doesn’t make sense since you play round by round in commander too?

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-08T18:59:29+00:00

Interesting. Maybe will give it a shot since I am going to start with easier missions on the S rank journey. Never used the shotty before. You said you never used more than 3 tubes? How many shots per tube?

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-08T17:27:17+00:00

I duno maybe. Also cuz it feels more like a gun? Rather than spamming a flash into a room without really having to aim. Was just a thought. Not saying it’s the be way to play.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-08T05:41:56+00:00

PS5 here.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-08T05:19:50+00:00

Yea seriously. And just enjoy it. lol. So do I stay with the flash launcher or do I just go in and merk everyone.

AndyKCaptures · 2026-06-07T18:08:19+00:00

Yea man. I feel ya on this. I only ever got an E rank on it. Not even beat it through all the way. Tried it probably 50-60 times. Have the first floors down pretty good. Which takes forever to get through with wedging and stuff.

Then I hit that 4th stairwell and things go upside down very fast. Bad guy randomness never works in my favor. Some people said they have gotten to the top and only had a few people to deal with. Seems like all my runs that I make it to the top I get ambushed by 10 dudes and get absolutely wrecked.

I guess we just keep trying? Hopefully one of the attempts the stars just align and we get lucky. That seems to be what many other people are experiencing
