Second Covert Op

[TheAnonymousOne]

It's.... almost impossible. This mission is immensely frustrating. Am I missing something? The game does very little to spell out the controls, and all my trial and error have gotten me is 40 deaths in the same mission. Is there some kind of SUPER sprint control? Is there an air-jump button I'm missing? This feels like a Super Meatboy level, and it's immensely frustrating when BA Broacus falls off a cliff and explodes for the 2000th time because the game starts to lag whenever the explosions start during the difficult platforming section.

When you sprint onto the zipline you get a super sprint and jump when you get off. Otherwise spam your normal sprint and jump button till you get to the zipline.

[Iggy Nai Jiggah]

You need to double tap right(sprint) while on the zipline to get a speed/ jump boost

[TheAnonymousOne]

Figured. I managed to get to the Zipline exactly once. Maybe it's easier on a controller...

I still can't seem to beat this level consistently.

Because it's ♥♥♥♥.

What about the exploding pipe? Am I supposed to run along it? Because it always kills me.

[Grotzel]

It is ... barely ... possible to run along it and jump off in just the right second. But this level appears to require pitch perfect timing - and there's ANOTHER pipe that apparently gets set off just after the first.

Pitch perfect jumping, running and gunning timing without save points for such a long period of time just doesn't feel like proper Broforce to me. It's repettive and annoying instead of fun, especially in such a linear level.

I usually love challenging Broforce levels ... not this one. Come to think of it, I thought that the previous one felt a little frustrating, too. Are all commando levels like this? The concept sounds great - one bro to beat the mission - but without any savepoints I just keep repeating the same actions over and over again in order to get perfect.

The trick of this map is to just keep sprinting. You have to keep ahead of the exploding gas pipes and use its explosion to propel yourself foward. When you use the zipline, dont' stop sprinting or else you won't make the next two jumps. Just keep sprinting and occasionally shoot dudes until you make it to the finish.

Yes this level is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and janky as ♥♥♥♥ but it is beatable.

[Korell]

I can't do either this one or the TimeBro one. The other three I've cleared, though.

[LeoStone]

When you take the timelapse it's almost possible to do it. I hate so much those "die and retry" levels. I always play on hard but way too hard and unpplayable is no fun. good luck to you all! i almost finish the one with rambro but it's so boring to start again from begining every time you go further...

[Mister Crac]

Am I supposed to get a different Bro each time that I die?
I thought that these Covert Ops missions always feature the same Bro.
For the first one that was the case (Rambro I think), but here I get a different one all the time.

[Mister Crac]

And yeah, this one is frustratingly difficult. :-(

[Grotzel]

Agreed ... this is the first mission that just wasn't any fun (the first one was ... but barely). Are all covert ops mission insanely difficult?

Hey man, we did a video showing how to beat the Vitaminz (second C mission). Hope this helps!

If you want a quick version, just skip to the last few minutes and watch the last attempt or two we make. We had a blast, but holy hell it's hard! Having a buddy playing with you to high-five for slow mo can help a lot.

There is a double jump on the characters... You need to jump, attack melee and then attack again. It is tough anyways.
