BO6 Exfil is frustrating and poorly designed

[latinaparfait(I♡Shakira)]

they literally don't give you much time at all, then you have to run across the map with like a minute with zombies spawning every 2 feet in front of you then you have to kill like 30 zombies when you probably have at most 30 seconds left with multiple boss zombies attacking you from every direction.

not only that, but i've failed it 3 times now because the last zombie didn't show up or i couldn't find him in the short time window. like in CW i don't remember it being this horrible. i couldn't do it even with everything maxed out and all perks plus the raygun, monkeys and moltovs. The armored zombies and zombies in general have way too much health at higher rounds to kill fast enough to exfil.

I respectfully disagree.
I think this is fine and it should be a challenge to extract, and it's totally possible when your team work together.

First, everyone should save at least one streak for the exfil.
The chopper gunner is one of the best for that.
The team must focus on killing the mini bosses.
A good call for it is having someone else marking the boss for the one on the chopper gunner.

Anyway, i do understand that when you have a team that doesn't know what is doing, might be hard, but honestly, it's easy if everyone does their part.

I think the issue OP is talking about is solo exfil.

It's definitely not tuned for that. Literally have entire map fill with zombies on your way to the chopper with less than 2 minutes to kill them all by yourself and then the final wave and boss zombies. I'm pretty sure it can also stack waves right now where if you exfil and have a new wave start then it spawns for both the exfil wave and the new wave. So like twice as many zombies.

This would be doable without the time limit, which is I think the issue for a solo player. Like they can play perfect, but you're going to have to get lucky on spawns and zombies bunching together just right to wipe them out before the timer expires cause there just isn't enough DPS otherwise.

Honestly, no timer on solo or a greatly increased timer would make this feel less impossible. That timer is kind of killing me want to play the mode.

No one exfil I guess, it's impossible no matter what

the only way i'm able to do it especially past round 30 is by immediately taking the zipline then using a score streak to try and kill as many zombies as possible. If you don't have a mutant injection or chopper, it's very unlikely you'll be able to exfil as the zombies and abomination have way too much health. You simply don't get enough time especially if it's your first few times trying to extract and figuring out where you need to go and realizing how tight the window of success is.

I did a successful squad exfil the other day. Its possible, just really challenging.

I find solo easier than co-op. I always end up with an a successful exfil, at round 41. Beyond that, it starts to get really hard.

I have a few tips for Liberty Falls to have a good start, if anyone is interested:

1º - Go straight to the "Pack a punch" machine, and upgrade your weapon to lvl 1 ASAP! (5K). This should be your first priority in game.

2º - Choose an elemental type for your weapon and always upgrade it's rarity when it's possible. This is also your priority.

3º - Buy armor lvl 2

4º - Farm for Pack a punch lvl 2

5º - Farm for armor lvl 3

6º - Farm for Pack a punch lvl 3

7º - Now you can spend your money buying perks you like.

8º - After having your weapon at the maximum rarity (orange), you can start saving scrap to buy the Chopper Gunner (2500 scrap), which you will have to save for the exfil.

- Always try to get headshots on enemyes.
- You should consider waiting for all zombies appear so you can stack the horde and then eliminate all at once. This will get you a lot of medals, points and exp.
- When calling the exfil, go straight to the bank's rooftop. When in there, activate the gunner
- When in the chopper gunner, your priority is to eliminate the Elite enemye. Try to mark his target before activating the chopper. This way you will see where is he, exactly.


Anyway, thats it. I hope it helps. This works just fine for me.
Feel free to add more tips!

Yeah you need to make a score heli gunner streak, and have full ammo and armour to even try.

It’s easy if you keep a chopper gunner on standby. You can buy it for 2500 from any crafting table.

Nice, thanks mate!

Mutant injection is all you need to exfil. It will clear the 100 or so zombies + the abom in a few seconds. Injection clears it way faster then chopper gunner, no bullets required. It turns exfiling on ANY ROUND into easy mode, just spam the melee attack and cleave everything. Just dont die on your way there. On Liberty falls this should not be a problem, just zipline to the exfil and use injection and exfil 10 seconds later.

If you play more zombies over MP then Mutant injection is one of the items you should perma unlock.

If there is something to complain about its not this, its the amount of elites that spawn in later rounds. Actually bullets spunges, most guns turn useless after 40-50 rounds.
