Bound dragons

[8ruggzy]

This is the worst event by far. It's completely unbalanced, the mission tasks are just stupid and the weapon reward is way too expensive. Who ever designed this event should be fired.
I mean just look at it the guards are wearing riot suits, can see you tru walls, are equiped with "sniper" LMG-s and there are a million of them.Why not give them NVG and gas masks too?
This event is complete garbage, a complete waste of money and GMP.

I think I know what's the event you're talking about. Money, GMP, samething. If you're like me with the maximum amount of GMP you have not probloem with it. If not chose a cheaper loadout, or do low level FOBs. I agree the soldiers using Riot Gear makes it difficult but like everyone you gotta get good.

Try smoke grenades, nvg then cqc..

I'm going to have to disagree with that. You can get 20,000+ points for completing all tasks, which I've done many times already and bought everything there was to buy. Between S1000, riot pistol, Sleep nades, STN nades and the underbarrel fakel, I've been able to get from starting point to core in 5 min. They give you 8m to do the job. The AI is dumb, you can practically walk right past them. They DO NOT have sniper rifles of any kind. They have *4 mid-range rifles, which makes them blind as a bat. Don't try to shoot them, stn them or put them to sleep and with that I cross 3 of the 4 platforms easy. Make it easy on yourself and stick to BaseDev. It's the easiest in my opinion, to make the core undetected.

I guess different people have different opinions, but mine is that this is the best mission yet. You only have to do half the repeats for the same amount of points because the point rewards are so high if you complete all tasks in a single run.

I Agree with OP...
Im fine with the super xray-zoom-spot you across the platform vision,the body Armour,their MGs I can deal with all that (its actually quite fun to do so) but the thing that really gets me is the pathetically blatant almost purposefully broken way these guys spawn and teleport while your moving thru the FOB,If its wasn't for that ♥♥♥♥ it would be a grate event.

I have not see that. I have seen FOB glitches that happen on every FOB, not just in this event, but it's my understanding that has to do more with the quantity of assets vs. an actual programming bug.

Here is a quick video tutorial I made if you have trouble with the event.

this is what Im going to do as well, I tried going in gung ho, something I didnt ususally do back when I had my old save data, so I figured why not since I dont have the high end kit(at the time) id jsut run in like rambo because everyone say it works. Well it didnt, I wish we could get a tranq pistol that can work on people in riot gear.

is it that good? I cant access it yet.
I find it hard only because those damned riot suits, but thankfully the ai seems kinda blind at times and there are 0 snipers present. ♥♥♥♥ those drones though.

Oh come on- People exploit the game's mechanics (fish flopping,stair slides) to no end how is the M71 any different,Sure its OP but if we are talking about balance weapons like that are at the bottom of the list (esp if we are talking from the prospective of FOBs).

yeah but how well does that w ork when your trying to be quiet while invading? I have this nigh OCD level compulsion to go in totall stealth or barring that non leathal no reflex. I usually only kill them by mistake these days via tossing them over a ledge and accedently hitting the lip of the floor below, or tossing a grenade when I ment to toss a smoke grenade, or c4 or knocking htem off a ledge with a decoy by mistake.

I quit using C4 as a distraction for that same reason. Now I toss STN grenades for a distraction if I need it. It keeps most of them staying in one location rather than moving and looking all around without the risk of killing someone my mistake. When using C4, I could blow it from the next platform over and not know one of the AI's just happened to be where I hid the C4. Besides,STN Grenades I can still toss to the other side of the platform, so it works for what it's intended to do.
