Endless mode

[RexHat]

Can someone explain how it works?

Do I lose stuff if I die or base get destroyed?

Its pretty straight forward defense/survive.
- Farthest frontline will generate loot each round & give you a few manual deployables
- You have 2 extract containers near your outpost you can send loot home in
- You can carry loot out in your backpack if your extract
--- Get option to stay/extract each wave but the shuttle takes 1 wave to show up
- You can use the Drone component on your base (if you built it yet) to send back loot on a reoccuring cycle.
- You get a bonus/risk/penalty card randomly applied every wave

Don't get killed or blown up or you lose anything in your inventory that you haven't sent back in a container/drone.

Just done it , but it's a bit stressful if you're alone, searching through the containers and then putting items away. it would be cool, if you had infinite time at the end like in normal mode once you have cleared the wave.

the one in the woodlands has an auto clear if you can manage to kill the tower with the red light up on the bridge over the base it will end the wave early and give you bonus time towards the next wave but the one in the desert ive no idea if it has one or not

Yeep.
On the 2nd sandy map is the same. The red light beacons are like 400m away from you.
Its always on the right or on the left side from your base.
You can even shoot it from your base.
I don't think they have thought that out.

If there is none on the left or right. There should be one behind that open gate.
On the top. There will be also many containers spawning in somehow.

Can they make the item that apear in the outpost, shared end reward instead so that it not first come first serve and the container become extracted reward instead of first come first serve ( i know too much loot ninja)

[ForrestFox]

Did my first run today, and it went pretty well, but I decided after like 4 waves to end it.
Was too bussy stocking the container to notice the darn flight home was on a timer, so when I finally took notice and realised the plane was about to leave .. Lets just say my desperate clawmarks will forever be etched on the painting on the outside of that darn thing :P

What if I let the front forwarding bases fall and just defend off my base… can you still get good loot or any look from that one base that’s the closest to yours?

Also if you die or base is lost, you only lose inventory stuff and nothing else?

[RexHat]

You can but you only get extra loot from frontbases. If you lose frontbases you only get rewards from the end wave events.

If you die it's the same as in tour mode, character die and you lose all items in inventory.

Ah okay. Thank you for that.
I do not think death should be that harsh of a penalty on endless mode. The mode is designed to go for as long as you can and think losing it all is a bit harsh.

Tour mode I get but endless mode… I do not think so.

I been doing endless quite a bit. Wave 18 was the furthest and I got rammed then, but the main screen shows 15 some reason, maybe milestone or something.

I done some testing and yes it’s extra loot from the base and supply drop (if accepted) some I declined because it was crappy waves.

[BigFatJerk]

I'm so confused, i used the 2 boxes in base early on to send loot back thinking theyd send me back an empty container box so i could send more loot as i do more waves but that wasn't the case. I have a bunch of mule guardians with loot that i cant auto deliver even when I had the empty containers in base. Kinda lost now.

Thought maybe i could go on more by not showing up to the evac and wow, it failed me and said i was MIA so im also not sure if i just lost my operative permanently, pretty sure I lost all the gear....

It seems like any gear NOT in the shipping containers to send to base gets lost even if it's in a pack mule? This is ridiculous for endless mode -_-

[TeraDragoon]

Mule must entered the airship in the green zone when leaving. Then the items are registered.
