Stuck on the Lamar missions

[Grey Dragon]

EDIT: After a string of bad experiences with this game, I have decided to abandon it. There's no point in playing if I can't have any fun.

I am no longer subscribed to this discussion.

You're probably not using cover effectively. I am not good at this either, but basically it doesn't seem like armour is that useful, so taking cover behind items in the environment is a better option. Also aiming makes you lean out to fire and expose yourself, firing blind is significantly safer.

I really suck at this part of the game, so this advice may not even be very good.

I make regular use of cover, but in this mission, there is ALWAYS someone behind you. Mainly because the enemies are coming from literally every direction at once.

If I'm behind cover, it protects me from about ten enemies, while the other four shoot me in the back of the head.

I use some cover run around the area where I can rest for snack or put on an armor and when I have any chance I run to my Khanjali that park nearby then unleash hell. Not sure this mission can call for air support or not.

they wont be behind u if you stay at the shipping container like i said above ^^

that spot offers great protection since they cant detect you, will never hit you and you have the advantage to dispatch them as soon as they spawn

Actually, I tried that one. The shipping container seemed ideal, but more gangsters came over the fences behind me. I wasn't exaggerating when I said they come from EVERY direction.

It's possible the mission was changed by an update after you beat it.

Nowhere in the area is safe enough to stop for a snack. I can't restore health anyway, because the first hit is always fatal. More than once I have been hit by three simultaneous headshots.

yep just hide behind the freight container i do it and survive every time

you just have to blind shoot (dont put your body out to aim)
stay on wall at all times never stick head out

just blind shoot and its ez

you dont need to eat snacks when you blind shoot since your body is never out for ai to see (you never get hit if done correctly)

Like I said, there's always someone behind me. Even if I never stick my head out, I get shot in the head from behind.

well you need to keep your on radar better
it helps you learn to know where they come from and you can quickly blind shoot your gun to dispatch before he sees u to shoot u

Okay. Worth a shot at least.

lamar missions aren't really beginner friendly
as already said look out for perfect cover in the cointainers

you could also make extensive use of explosives like grenade launcher, but watch your aiming or you fail through collateral dmg, helps especially against the incoming vehicle enemies, explosions always stun enemies for a few sec so they won't use their guns in a certian perimiter around the explosion. big clips also help, so you can give some suppressing fire if you suck at quick headshots.

peace offerings is another tough one or the shoot out on the funeral

getting one shot could mean you still haven't enough hp aka aren't rank 100 or your internet connection to your partner suck, so you will always die if you are close to them

tested with a lowrank 29 rando and we did it second try one took cover between the 2 delivered tuner cars and the other took cover at the front concrete blocks

I decided to take a break from the Lamar missions and try other ways of advancing, but it didn't go well. Repeated mission failures, constant trouble with griefers and a generally unfriendly atmosphere have made it impossible for me to enjoy this game. I guess I'll just have to do something else.

Thanks for the support folks, but this game isn't for me.
