How do we get to new content

[Ratbertt]

I am too stupid to figure this out. How do we get to the new content in Showdown? I see the new island, but can't figure out what to do to get to it. Googled it. Went through 10 pages of posts here. It must be obvious. But it is not obvious to me.

I read we had to "start a level 3" something or other and go down a hatch with tyrants??? No idea what that means.

Someone explain to me like a toddler. Thanks!!

Your character must be at level 25 and you must complete the mission "Behind The Curtain".

Yup done that. We've been done for ages. Thank you!

I think we misread the instructions. We've been doing what we thought were base assaults, which was the defense of your base stuff. But what I think we need to do is attack a fenix base? Maybe.. we're going to try that next

If I remember correctly you need to attack a FNIX base level 3 or more, the ones that have the underground tunnel to submit reapers. There you meet Veronika working in one of the cores and kickstarts the mission.

...After that you can trigger the first mission of the Showdown update called "Network Infiltration" by blowing up all the generator shields (do not destroy the command center) of any level 3 Fnix base so you can access the hatch to meet up with Veronka.

I suggest don't destroy the Finx command center where you met up with Veronika as sometimes the mission gets bugged. Don't hurry but instead listen carefully to the dialogue so you won't miss important clues. Follow the clues from then on. Many times mission marker is delayed in showing up on the map.

To pinpoint a level 3 Fnix base just go to Map View (press letter M) and hover you mouse on any Fnix base and the one that will show there is a hatch will be the right one.

There are many bugged mission so I recommend:
IMPORTANT: Manually backup your save files every at every stage (you can use winzip or winrar to compress the file and name the backup to help you recall that save is all about). You can use the backup to reload a stage before a mission that has clearly gone bugged.
