Which Is More Painful Loud: Election Day Day 2 Plan B, or Plan C?

[Grey Star, The Rival Defender]

Both involve cheap ass sniper kills (one sniper is a reasonable threat, two snipers is something to be afraid of to keep you from being in an area, three is bad map design auto downing you before you can take them out).

However Plan B involves 6 machines spread around an entire warehouse and thus is annoying to hack and defend all of them, followed by a 5 minute hack for some god awful reason to erase camera footage, and then moving the bagged loot across sniper fire.

Plan C involves Cloaker spam, Bulldozer and shield rushes, Taser flankings, snipers keeping you pinnned, and a hail of gun fire being shot at you. However the faulty hacks you have to defend are concentrated into a single place and take about as long as Plan B does (voting machines / voting machine data hack + software back up + security footage / drill). And if you get really lucky, Bain will find an empty vault and say "♥♥♥♥ it book it" and so you don't have to secure any cash.

I personally prefer Plan C due to being a much better firefight then Plan B due to more volume but less chaos. Plan B involves getting shot at from every direction in tight corridors, Plan C involves controlling those corridors and keeping the cops back by killing them and dealing with their respawns, they're meant to be controlled through a battle of gunfire. Plan B is just, an eh fire fight and the ending sequence and loot moving are so boring due to how long it takes with relatively nothing to do but kill the cops heading in two whole doorways. Plan C may make the ending a living Hell, but it's more interesting then "sit and defend computer."

Couldn't tell you because ♥♥♥♥ Election Day. I've sneaked it like 3 times in 400 hours. Plan B sounds awful though. Snipers are the worst, especially if you're using a shotgun or akimbo build.

I hate Plan B

Its plan b. On plan c you don't have to guard 6 objects at the same time . And plan b has almost no cover.

Plan B can be a real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, especially if you were expecting to stealth it. There goes all your progress in the hacks, go do it again but this time let's take even longer and have the device occasionally break.

Even if you were expecting to do it loud from the start, you're hunting these stupid boxes and you have to protect like 6 things at the same time. At least in Plan C you can focus on 1 objective at a time. But I haven't ever done Plan C past Mayhem so I don't know how bad it is in the higher difficulty stuff...

Plan C is much easier. The objectives are straightforward and don't require you to travel around the map.

Unless they changed it, don't all machines u've hacked during stealth stay hacked when u go into loud. Like if you need 5 machines and you complete 2 before being discovered, it remains as 2 /5?
