As the titel says its some spoilers in this.

Summary

The mission In the face of Adversity.
I gett to the point as i have to drive the bike trow 2 conteiners and after that i cant get any direktion of next checkpoint. and the timer is only 45 sek from her i think its the 6 point i cant get from.

Is "In The Face Of Adversity" supposed to be impossible?

I am also stuck on this mission. Next time I will do it this way: I walk the entire route on foot and I eliminate every robot on the path and then I take the bike. Don’t forget to put a radio on the starting line :wink:

I did it now. tok me allot of trys and error to get it done.

Summary

i hade allot of luck one time around think its my 20 time doing it.
The mission way points after the dubbel conteiner did not show up for me and it was not on the map ither so i just kept on riding the bike i hade some tanks in the way and harvesters and hunters. i finaly got to the drop of conteiner and run in and got the loot and price.
1 adrenalin and a load of first-aid was what it took. im not sure if you can get this done on gerilla i did mine on skirmish and it was ruff. lvl 4 rival fnix tank in the end and an mission related tank so bring guns =P

keep going you will get

Ajusted topic title for clarity and added spoiler tags. I managed the race on the second try. I fell over once, but managed to heal up and keep going. The tank at the end was a bit crazy, but it was easy enough to bypass since it was on the finish line. The reward was well-worth the effort, though.

They made another race side mission? Does it have a timer?

#8

It does have a timer, but you have to run through checkpoints which adds time. There are also hindrances on the path, you have to go through containers and around cars at a few spots, and Machines spawn nearby to give you a bad time.

I know there has been a survey from the devs about possible future content to be added to GZ, but I don’t remember a “more bicycle races” option. Which of you was that? :joy:

Certainly was not me :sweat_smile:
I would prefer a side mission about clearing bunkers, or a daily continuous side mission about clearing a Heavily defended area from machines ( like clearing a Large Naval base from 7 harvesters, 5 tanks, 15/20 Hunters and 40/50 dogs).

Ridiculous side mission. Seems it has some mission spawned enemies, some that just randomly spawn those areas and random patrol. Tried this mission couple of times, and came to conclusion that its not the worth of wasted time and medical supplies.

Its pure amazement how could anyone stay alive whole that course.

Dunno if you could just place bicycle near the end with field radio. Go start line, spawn bike, fast travel to your field radio. Hop on into other bike, cross finishing line.

This is what i call bad mission design. Why would mission criteria be just luck and waste of time. Where is the fun part, rinse and repeat now days considered as fun activity.

Not us either. Furthermore we did not ask for more “defend something” missions but yeah, it’s there. And not talking about that disaster babysitting mission at the end, stopped playing for couple of days because of frustration from that particular mission.

IMHO Avalanche should hire a proper screenwriter.

When you’ll drive towards Åsötungan Outpost just keep going, until you’ll see a shipping container on the right with a POI icon on it - that’s the end of the mission.

Hello, I did this mission but the benchmarks present a bug or the difficulty of finding the intermediate points. A member of the FR community helped me by making a MAP plan on the direction to go

I have just finished this mission, what can I say, the final reward is worth all the efforts made :rofl::rofl::rofl:

#17

I finished this bike ride after 10 tries or so. Had some unfortunate collisions with runners and was kicked of my bike by the Harvester. :sunglasses:

Does finishing this bike run open up another mission or just give you a bunch of stuff. Wouldn’t mind a spoiler of what stuff.

#19

Here’s my success “race” if anyone is interested how it can be done:

I’m not even going to say how many tries it took me to finally finish this mission…

Bunch of stuff and that kind of stuff that you can not get from anywhere else, except after finishing this mission.

Between the unwieldly bike, fast travel point miles away, tight timers, bugged objective markers and reliance on good enemy spawn (or lack of), this mission seems like it’s nearly impossible.

Am I missing something or do you just have to retry hundreds of times?

#21

It took me two tries. So no not impossible. But I guess kinda hard. When the marker disappears. Just take the right, and go towards the plane hanger safe house. You basically are going through the concrete barricades. Have you tried turning the difficulty down? It might help with enemies.

#22

First of all, drop a field radio back at the mission starting point! :wink:
I think it took me 4 or 5 attempts, so it’s not impossible. Annoying? Yes. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
