Just another Day 6 thread... Wish they would Patch it or something...

[Shadow of Hate]

I'm tired of trying to beat this mission solo... It's just not gonna happen. None of my friends ever bought the game and/or won't rent it. Let me know if anyone would be available to help me finish this mission.

This mission is beginning to infuriate me. I got it a couple of days ago on the cheap and this level inparticualr is making me rage. I can do the first bit easy enough but I can't hack the missiles at all due to the friendly AI's stupidity.

[Chuppernicus]

I have the game but wont be playing it until superbowl weekend when I get together with some buddies for gaming, football and adult sodas. After that I'd be willing to help you guys out. The AI isn't the brightest at times and I've only played the first 2 missions. Still I think I'll really like the game with friends.

Unless you have a friend who you know will help you, you should hold off on that mission. Do everything else but that one.

I pieced together a couple of different strategies that I read about for this level and was finally successful (without the help of a friend).

No need to delevel your character like some people have suggested. Just start a new one. You can pick whatever level you want to play right from the beginning. The bots really are much easier at low levels.

I used a shotgun as my primary.

What I would do is start my hack right next to the console so that the hack % would increase quickly. I would watch my surroundings and try my best to keep the console in between me and any enemies so that I could stay as long as possible. The second I started to take any damage I would sprint into the little room the the right of the console. You can continue to hack from that distance (just slower) and enemies rarely follow you in there. If they do that is when I would use my shotgun. As soon as it looked like the opposing team was focused on my teammates again I would move outside to the terminal. I repeated this process of hiding in the room and popping out when it looked clear until I reached 100%. It is very important to move into the room as soon as you start to take damage because if you die they can undo most of your progress.

I may have just gotten lucky but it worked for me. Thought I would pass it on as I know how frustrating this level can be. Most people's advice was to find a partner to do it with you but it can be done on your own.

Thanks, will try it later. Haven't had chance to do it over the last couple of days.

Done it. As I'm going for the achievement for doing it on Hard/Versus I went on versus and actually got into a lobby with a few people and did it first time. Also finished Security and done half of the resistance

[Emperor Hans]

[jo$$$$h]

Looking for a partner also .... Cant stand trying it yet another time without one GT : jossssh

The first part is simple, repair the crane controls. Play as an engineer and either constantly try to repair the controls and when you get down wait for a medic, then resume hacking. This is more of a kamikaze method. Or secondly, play as the engineer again and use turrets, mines and damage buffs to your liking. This will create a 'safe' area for you and your team to repair the crane. Remember you can buff your gun damage by holding too!

For the second objective things seem to become overwhelmingly difficult and your team seem to have a problem assisting you in ANY way. My first choice here was to become an operative and get the job done myself...Wrong!

For this section i remained as an engineer, i fought my way to hacking objective and just off to the right you will see a small, dead end hall way with 2 entrances/exits. Haul ass inside here and set up a turret in the left-most door (While facing hacking objective), and then place a proximity mine in the other entrance. Camp here and help your turret fend off the Resistance, whilst doing so your team will start to hack the objective.

If you keep on top of the enemies and repair your turret when iuts needed asap you shouldn't have an issue. Upon trying this method i done it first try.

Tl;dr:
Camp in hallway off to the right.
Turret in one door, mine in the other. (Play as Engineer)
Wait for your teams operatives.

Yeah that mission was a bitch. I had to try loads of times and I eventually got lucky.

This. Actually, I ended up camping to the right of the area where the enemy would funnel in, but the idea is the same. Once you hit that magical 2 minute mark, your team develops some skills and will begin to hack it. Mine went into overtime, but I still was able to complete it.

I'm fed up of trying to beat this mission, might try and use the advice above, the AI for me always seem to be able to starting hacking in the final 2 mins so I might just camp there and wait for them.

Decided just to try this mission again today and actually completed it!

All I did as an engineer was camp in the hallway to the right of the hack box,
placed a turret facing the hack box so anyone trying to remove it failed,
placed myself at the other side of the hallway and killed anything in sight,
my AI team suddenly all appeared and completed the mission easily

Hope this helps!
