This event, is it just several times harder, or is it just my rank?

[Highly Inappropriate]

The last event was just dudes without riot gear, on two platforms.
This event - Bound Dragon - is four platforms full of riotgears with machineguns, and two drones on the last platform, that I have about 30 minutes to traverse.
...and it's no ♥♥♥♥♥ riot gear either: I geared up with the most damage dealing weaponry I could come up with, and I have to empty a whole machine gun mag into one of them, to kill him. My shotgun pistol actually deals better damage (but has too little ammo).
It's positively impossible to battle out three waves on every platform, within that time limit. I don't think I even got to set foot on the second platform, because I was back at spawn trying to choke out the waves.

Is this event like this for everyone?
...or is it just because I've been climbing the ranks a lot?

Watch this video then Flibedi-Floob (see my attempt below Death Raven's). Also, please note how I got 1580 plants for this and you were grumbling about using just 12 plants on nades for this mission;

Good work Boss

I did the same mission on R&D (no guns used, realistic mode) and it only took 2 mins to reach the core platform (rather than 7+ mins). I see you were being very cautious, although it was a rather slow pace of progress!

Here's 6/8 tasks completed in 6 minutes without using anything other than CQC, I'd of been faster if I hadn't of got myself lost on the upper levels of the R&D Platform (LOL);

...because you've been crying for a while now, about me wanting to do things my way, and I just don't get why.

There's a slight difference between "I'm doing a self-imposed challenge run and need some tips on how to do this event" and "THIS IS HARD MACHINE GUNS ARE TOO WEAK I'M STILL BETTER THAN ALL OF YOU THOUGH".

This thread leans more towards the latter.

It's pretty subtle though.

Skirting awareness like that, is a matter of luck. Even after a thousand infiltrations, I bet you only pull that off every other try. Still, this was closer to my playstyle. I'll be with you in a thousand infiltrations.

But this IS hard. ...and machine guns ARE too weak in this game. ...to the point where I'm wondering why Kojima even put them in at all, if they're not going to work the way they're intended to work.
...but these runs at least prove that the guards are blinder than I thought.

...and about this being hard: Is this forbidden to say, somehow? Are we only allowed to speak in terms of easy, and even easier? At what level of crazy are we here?

Keeping a good pace whilst moving away from guards is often all you need to escape their detection. Often hanging around in view can cause you more trouble than increasing your distance, as this can let them get too close to you and then you'll need to react much faster with a defensive or aggressive action. Although my success rate wouldn't be close to 100% going at the speed I did on that run using no devices, if I paused in a few spots to make extra observations, combined with having either grenades / guns / magazines / decoys etc. at my disposal, I would have a high success rate at avoiding a full alert. Keep in mind you can be more stealthy on this mission by going in at dusk rather than daytime when their sight is more restricted. Those armoured guys are as blind as bats compared to grade S++ snipers, so you could actually sprint for part of the way if you wanted too!

Stick at it and you'll get the hang of how the guards behave and keep looking around you 360 degrees as much as you can. Basically I just wanted to demonstrate to you that weapons aren't necessarily needed for this mission (unless you want 8/8 tasks), it's more about stealth and skill.

use smokes and equip the sneaking suit, so the enemy doesn't hear your footstep if u are sneaking up on them. smokeclouds, stolen materials, damaged installations and found unconscious or dead bodies will trigger a soft alert, where the enemy is aware of a intruder but this doesn't count for the "no alerts" bonuspoints. So u can get away with pretty much everything. don't limit your versatility.

Its easy task. Just follow 1 rule - dont infiltrate R&D and intel platforms, coz their architecture is bs.

Yet R&D platform yield PMs as a reward. And "late game" devs need tons of them.

I went their naked (Gold Snake) so I was more visible than you, but it doesn't matter, good job, zam.

EDIT: I forgot, I was going very slow to show the kid how it's done, but he said I knew the way while at two time I was blocked, so for him taking 10+ minutes to reach the core is knowing the way, amateurs are so cute, 10 minutes is fast for them lmao, zam.

[matrixmod]

pain in the ass FOB event.

I got almost 200 hits, while trying to sneak on the main platform yesterday. Because of my mistakes, invasion became a cover based shooter. Good that I had grenades, mines and smoke, so eventually infiltration was succesful.

[Highly Inappropriate]

I managed to choke out a total of 12 guys on a single platform yesterday, so I'm making progress. Still that took me 20 minutes, so I'd need about three times the time for doing four platforms.

I'm glad that the owner of the platform placed all his mines close to the core, so that nobody got alerted when I tripped over one, and had to dispose of the rest. Mines are supposed to alert guards - not just damage you. I've got this lousy regenerating health - I don't care about mines!

I hate going in quiet just because it reminds me of Quiet and how much I dislike her. Grade 5 PKM sure did the trick, mhm yes siree bob. Plenty of ammo too. Somehow I got the Complete in under 480 seconds. ( Think that's one of the task, maybe it was the last event )

WHOOPS: It was an LPG MG. I don't know what I was thinking when I said PKM.

I'm developing one of them GOLDEN machine guns, but it's a stun machine gun, so I don't think they do ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ against a riot suit.
...and if it does, ♥♥♥♥ this game.

If You're going for the No kill Rule than use the Stun Shotgun. The Uragan 5 Air shot also works.

Last time I used a Rubber bullet gun on a riot suit man in Free Roam He didn't Flinch. Rubber Bullets work on the Noggin When they don't have a Helmet Of course.
