The chain bridge mission...

[nazgull2k1]

is 100% Pure BULLS(#*&$.

Nevermind there's NO ammo crate.. nevermind you're SOMEHOW expected to not only defend the chains, but also somehow dodge 12 tyranid warriors spraying shots at you from 2 MILES away in EVERY direction.

All of this with NO ammo crate, NO healing items, NO special weapons of any kind (and i'll get to that bs in another post..) and no actual help from the AI. My friend and I have given up after an hour repeating this bs debacle. Dunno if any of you have passed it on Veteran.. but Im throwing in the towel.

Just have a break and come back later. Beat it on my first try and theres way harder things on veteran later on.

there are a few ammo crates on the chain bridge. The big ones.

Then its bugged out for us big time.. cause we spent 2 attempts mapping out every inch of that bridge.. there's not a single ammo crate for us anywhere.

Strange, there should be 3 stims packs, some grenades, ammo boxes, one big ammo box(infinite) on middle of platform and ♥♥♥♥ load of weapons evertywhere. I was playing on second hardest difficulty in CO-OP and yes it was most difficulty part of this game xd

[Voxleo]

This bridge bugged out for me too.
First attempt it all worked fine, ammo boxes, stims etc could all be interacted with.
Second attempt was all kinds of messed up! Everything was there visually but we couldn't interact with any of it. Enemies shooting right through the crates cover, spawning on the outside of the map shooting, couldn't pick anything up (ammo/stims). It can definitely break completely. Stupidly enough we beat it on that bugged attempt so I don't know if it can fix itself

Edit: This was also done on Vet.

Hmm the Trick for that mission is to Stand on the pilars...learn the first and second clear the first one then run assap to the second one when u get there u only have to kill the Tyranid Warrior ignore the mini adds they die if u kill the Warrior. Repeat and gg. (Do this thing alone, on extreme) Took me some wipes....
Hmm, that is nothing with what come next xD.. Courage and Honor

Thats our biggest hangup... they spawn all these shooting warriors with pinpoint accuracy and no matter where you stand, you're getting shot repeatedly. The crates provide zero cover, there's no ammo.. and we just get our teeth kicked in.

Now reading your post, at least we know for sure its definitely bugged out.

uhhh... what? What pillars? There's no pillars.

Its a giant bridge section with crates around. Tyranid Gargoyles attack the chains holding up the bridge while tyranid warriors spawn everywhere with dozens of gaunts. Theres no pillars to stand on.

We've been getting the same issue.
- No ammunition cashes.
- No COVER! Getting sniped by 1-4 ranged Warriors and 4-8 ranged Gaunts.
- Madicae kits are bugged. Often nobody can pick them up.
- Sometimes the game doesn't let you pick up a weapon. Any weapon.

I am currently stuck on this point as well (on Angel of Death though). Biggest problem is the fact that the AI does basically nothing useful up to the point that I percieve them as buggy. On one try I had my two mates right behind me and thought I am covered from that direction. Then I got shot and looked from where...Gadriel stood there behind me with a Gaunt RIGHT next to him that shot through him at ME. All while Gadriel was firing somewhere else into the middle distance instead of quickly killing the gaunt...

Defending these antenna towers in the first mission was already challenging but manageable with grenades. But this elevator now feels borderline unfair, when every single nid is shooting you and the stagger you recieve when hit once results in 20% chain stability loss because the bots never even bother to shoot the gargs.

I feel the highest difficulty is only actually manageable in co-op with proper coordination. Which feels bad, because I want to be able to do this by myself as well.

It is rare i think they should debrain a developer but this mission is it. Really the person who came up with it should be fired. Your AI bots are just horrific. They are shouting protect the chain but don't do ♥♥♥♥. They leave the big guys up instead of executing them. The chains aren't connected in animation but are in life.

Why the game is awesome why do you have to have stupid ♥♥♥♥ like this. Fire the idiot who came up with this idea.

[Darth Alpharius]

its Easy

[Lupercal]

bolter with grenade launcher is a godsend in the higher difficulties on that mission

T4 you get 2 ammo crates, I don't play much on t3 or lower so I have not checked. Also many T4 missions you are ment to have relic gear, which is a game design issue. Once you do though... :)

We're all discussing the main campaign. With Titus. No idea what youre talking about, but clearly you're not understanding the discussion here.
