PvE replayability?

[BLACKcOPstRIPPa]

Do the PvE missions change even if you pick the same map over and over?

Like enemy types and placement, or is there like different objectives that the map randomly chooses each run for you to complete etc?

Also bots, can I solo a map with AI that I can equip with items and upgrades I want them to have or have unlocked myself?

Operation missions and each class has roughly 100-200 hours of locked progression to unlock.

Dude, that is the fattest lie.

To the OP.

The co-op Operations have 4 difficulties, and part of the changes to these difficulties is enemy numbers, aggression and to an extent enemy types.

However, all the PvE missions are extremely repetitive. The exact same objectives, exact same map layout - you play the same missions over and over.

You can do the 6 main campaign missions solo with bots, but trying to do them on the hardest difficulty is basically impossible due to the AI being dumb. Veteran is doable, but tough. The Operations can't be done solo, these are online co-op missions.

The class progression is pathetic. The unlockable perks are 90% just small passive bonuses, they really aren't game changing at all. So even when you manage to grind the missions over and over to max level a class, there's really no development to playstyle or gameplay.

It sounds like you'd be more interested in something like Darktide or Vermintide than this thing. This is just a mediocre imitation of games like that.

Its diff, but not impossible. I got through the campaign today on angels of death. Made completeing it all the more satisfying (personally), but too bad you dont get a achievement or some unlockable helm for doing so : /

The missions are the exact same. I have played the first co-op mission about 7-8 times because I'm trying to figure out which class is funnest for me and the missions are the exact same. Unless you consider getting the codes off soldier 3 instead of 4 different, that is.

This game would have greatly benefited from a Helldivers 2 type of co-op, but who knows. Maybe that will come....years down the road when no one cares anymore.
