Hope not… If so, that’s even sadder than typing in a cheat code or a console command!
I haven’t heard save sharing for GZ to advance in game but i’ve seen save sharing for other Steam games, to unlock hard to get Steam achievements. So, yeah. It is a real thing. Sad but true.
Well, as a self proclaimed achievement whore ( now retired after the 100k ) this saddens me as well. There is nothing more rewarding that achievements from hard work in game, something to look back on down the line.
I will play devils advocate though, because IF achievements have been locked and un obtainable due to updates hotfix’s etc…and you have fulfilled the criteria ( fashionista for example ) then its a tough call.
That said I found a few work arounds for my own issues “ in house” but with the changes to game this may be a culture that develops over the steam community as a matter of necessity to actually progress in GenZ
I don’t want someone else’s save, just for the record. Not interested. But that’s how hard the ringfort suddenly seems for some players. I’m not making this up. But that’s getting off topic.
And there’s ammo to find, I kno-ow, but never as much as I gathered during half a year of gameplay.
I will gladly help you with the mission or with a bunch of ammo if you like, perhaps some bug in the game with endless waves or something
Wow… if that makes you quit … that’s sad
I’ve already completed that mission and well aside from having to turn the difficulty to skirmish to make it a little easier I have no complaints it’s hard yes but not impossible on your own… escorting the trucks alot harder by yourselfalso if it’s just a bug which I did not experience (PS4) I get it I waited rather impatiently for 5 months and yeah I’m happy I’m not having trouble like they have / had on xbox
Again: sad= losing half a year of ammo gathering in a mission of a few minutes. That’s still out of proportion in my book. And extremely disappointing.
Anyways: I made it. The ringfort is behind me. And without lowering diff. Thnx for the support, m’droogs !
Still wondering how much ammo you actually used, in plain numbers… How much is half a year’s worth? Fighting the Reaper cost me 2000 rounds of 7.62 and 400 rounds of .50 BMG in less than 20 minutes… That was only a little bit of all that I had.
If you really want to know, I’ll do the maths for you next time when I fire up the game, but it’s all relative, isn’t it ? You’re clearly way better at this than I am. I am a loner, stealth. In spite of all the rivals I downed I’ve only picked up one single experimental: a handgun. Not exactly the kinda piece with which you impress the waves at the ringfort, is it ? My fav is automat gevär 4 and the 5 as a stand-in. And the pansar 90. I managed the ringfort with the granatgevär. I used just over 30 HEDP for the fort and the following 2 rivals. The 3d one I downed longdistance with 7.62. But that’s easy, because you can hide. Which I will not be able to do to defend the truck, I guess.
Defending the truck was super easy. It stops moving forward whenever you aren’t near it. Just walk away from the truck till it stops, then go a ways up the road and deal with whatever is ahead waiting for the truck then go back to the truck to have it move again. Rinse and Repeat. The truck never takes any damage until its almost all the way to the end.
Yeah I’ve noticed lol and adapted my strategy to that for solo xd
We are talking about the 3 waves that attack the ring fort??? I’m not judging just confused. I’m on ps4 adventure difficulty just to relax and enjoy the game and I beat that without downing. It’s only hunters and dogs that spawned. I only used like 60 .50 cal ammo for the whole thing.
I also have plenty of ammo if you need it and glad you beat it.
Yep, we are. It was a complete surprise for me in Skirmish. Sweet of you to offer, DangerNoodle, but I hope I can keep tackling this on my own, apart from the odd advice I can find when the game totally surprises me.
For something completely different: did I miss something in the last notes ? 'bots simply get inside barns and houses way easier than before FNIX ?! Is that part of the deal ?
@trikke11 What is the name of the mission?
Tidal wave?
Ok from the comments, i guess it was…Maybe your game has a bug?
The mission was super easy, i did it on skirmish and was a walk in the park.
1 month ago one user from the forum complained that while playing in Adventure for him to destroy a hunter he add to use at least 100/200 or more bullets from the AG4 or any assault rifle.
I helped him with some advice, in the end he discovered his game was all messed up,all the machines had at least 2 or 3 times the HP they have on Guerrilla mode.
It was on PC.
Do you also need to waste that many bullets for a hunter to go down?
Bots have always been getting into buildings for me so it was common the whole time for me but I like the fact even though it’s a bug it keeps me on my toes
@Mr_A1992 lol, I never count while trying to survive. But I don’t have the feeling my game is messed up like that. In fact when I get the opportunity I can kill a hunter with one shot right in its barrel. There even is a reward for that, if I remember correctly.
@Wolf_Spirit07 Last night I had more 'bots in the attic of a barn than outside. Bummer !
I’m currently doing FNIX Rising for the 2’nd time, and I suddenly remembered this discussion with @trikke11. I decided to record the Tidal Wave mission, while doing it on Guerilla difficulty.
…now I’m wondering even more why people are struggling with it!
Looked easy. Then again, GZ has big emphasis for co-op play and this is one of the few missions where co-op play is preferred.
It was easy. Much too easy to be called “virtually impossible”, like the OP did. And much too easy to believe that X amount of people are so stuck here that they end up sharing each other’s save files to get past it…
Like I said before, I don’t mean to judge or to brag. Personally, I can never master playing FPS games on consoles. I simply can’t aim with a thumbstick!
OP also claims a “year’s worth of ammo” had been wasted on this mission. Also beyond my understanding. On this attempt I used 686 rounds of 7,62 mm, 22 rounds of .50 BMG, 4 rounds of .44 Mag, and 1 standard medkit…
Of course, but that would only make the mission easier. Even with scaling turned on. Unless they sent in more machines pr. player?
Anyway, I didn’t do this just to rip open an old wound. I just wanted to see for myself what all the fuss was about. Looks like the OP hasn’t been active for a while.
Experimental kvm 59 and a handful of mines did the trick for me, skirmish, but I’m on PC and I too suck playing with a controller
