Never Another Lab Rats
After at least 30 odd tries at completing this heist on Death Wish today I have still yet to find success, with progress ranging from everyone being dead almost immediately to dying on top of the escape bacause someone joined in and was immediately pinned down by the stupid amount of cops shooting from every direction and was unable to get there in time. The last 15 tries at least it was just me and one other guy (I have to give him props for not giving up for that long). During this time do you know how many people joined? Exactly zero. An hour at least of exactly zero people joining the game. I never have problems with people joining, but as soon as I select Lab Rats it's as if no one is playing the game. Even if there are people in the lobby when I select it, they all leave. Do you know why? Because no one likes this heist. At all. It's stupidly hard for all the wrong reasons. It's a literal ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nightmare, and I can safely say that once I finally do finish it I will never touch it again. I hope Overkill learn from this and we never get another heist that is so utterly infuriating.

Funny that after all the community crying for that crap to stay nobody plays it now. Can never get people to join and if they do it's because they are completely new and have 0 idea what they are in for. They go down twice and go ♥♥♥♥ this im out xD

I think mostly people just wanted it to stay so they could earn the achievements without waiting another 12 months.

Which everyone cheats anyway... They ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for the sake of being snide and sarcastic. It's not a bad heist, it's just not an easy one, and shockingly out of place being in the game 24/7. By the same logic, why didn't they keep safehouse nightmare all year round? Makes no sense to me.

I wish this didn't count towards the DW mask. Same with Train

I found train to be fairly easy tbh, although you may be referring to stealth. All I know is this is the last heist I need to do for the DW achievement and it's driving me nuts how difficult it is.

Make up your mind, my man

"It" meaning Lab Rats.

You're complaining about being unable to finish a heist during a free week.
Heh.
Play with a professional crew? Maybe Master Assaulters or something?

Pronoun game. I love it.

Well you can kite AI for this.
There's an invulnerable location, under the CS barrel where you can wait out the Build/Sustain phase and then do your objectives during Fade, provided that Winters hasn't arrived.

That's how I went about it solo.

Lab Rats is easy on DW, you just need patience.

A rocket launcher helps too...

Had rep limit set at 80, I'm not stupid. Most was with my friend (XV-100) and a guy who randomly joined (XXV-100).

I beg to differ. And I had a rocket launcher.

Running on cables isn't something funny... the developers should have thought twice and make zip-lines connect every place where we need to go, since those cables aren't thick enough - one wrong step and you're in custody... unless teammates are nearby...

I'd rather play the halloween dozer nightmare mission, instead of this ...

Lab Rats can be funny only on lower difficulties... since you don't have much cover there

Lab Rats is a lot of fun, but it's much tougher than other heists, especially when you factor in Titandozers. It's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficult.

And I agree about the tightrope ♥♥♥♥. There should be actual walkways or ziplines. Falls have killed too many of my teammates.
