Help needed !

[Unnsavory Salmon #SaveTF2]

Im stuck on the Final Misssion and thought to myself do I need certain Heroes? Well I knew that there was Heroes that I was missing... (Namely the Fortress and Heavy Metal.) was it true? Do I need a certain hero possibly... But anyways yeah thats my problem anyways help needed and guide appreciated.

Hello Mighty Mcrizzle,

You should not need any Heros for any missions in normal mode. Heros can help but it is possible to win without them.

As a developer I do not want to try and give any hints or tricks myself but are there any players who have suggestions for Might Mcrizzle? During the latest patch the last two missions got their difficulty boosted.

Heya there daniel anyway you can give help without delibrately telling me because heres what my situation is : I CAN defeat the Mega Metal but by the time I got there I couldnt Setup anything because the units I had were either Half Gone or were focused on the Mega Metal, and if I tried to focus my units mainly on Defense most of them were destroyed by the Mega Metal and the Fortresses. The 12th and 13th Missions I just BARELY scrapped by but I couldn't explore because I had to focus my troops on fighting Orizo's Forces, I just felt it was a weird Difficulty Spike that really hit hard.

Hey Daniel if you don't wwish to give hints and help pubicly you can always message me through my email if you so wish we can talk there and if you do I wont leak a thing to anybody

Focus your tanks and helicopters in the mid lane, use your jets to destroy the fortresses (first in the right) with one double attack and deploy a strong hero unit with the lab in mid lane

You can try to find Danté (hero) in this map firstly, the lab is in the northwest of the map (fly with a jet and deploy the soldier hero unit here), then surrender and start the mission again, you will have Danté and he is a killer

[Unnsavory Salmon #SaveTF2]

Hey Milinagi have to thank you for your very nice strategy! I'm just a Tad bit confused on what to do with things like the
Infantry
Radar
Striker
Scout
Not only that but what Hero should I spawn in ? I have a fair amount of them from what I know I'm only missing the Heavy Metal and Fortresss Heroes so I'd just like a bit more information or some specifics

[SGC | Happensmaker]

Well I didn't replay the maps in normal, because I'm in the midst of my New Game+ (started it before the difficult patch came) and I don't want to replay the normal campaign just to get to that mission. So I cannot say how it looks now after the difficulty spike.

But I can say one of the strongest heros (in my opinion) is William Bishop (the fighter jet). Just the fact that only Striker units, Jets, Fortresses and the Mega Metal can attack him makes him extremly valuable. That also means only three units can counterattack him, but given that his evasive abilities are pretty high he mostly get almost none counterdamage. And even if he gets attacked first he won't receive that much damage compared to normal jets.

Btw. If you never used him: USE him, because he can attack ground units as the only fighter jet. And that is pretty cool when you make a Focus Fire, even if you cannot kill the enemy with it, if William attacks as last, the enemy cannot make a counterattack (with the few exception of Jet, Fortress and the Mega Metal)

So basicly: When a mission is to hard -> drop him in as the first hero.

Heya Happensmaker

Thanks for your suggestion on using William Bishop I actually think it makes sense to do that concidering that the 2 biggest concerns : The Fortresses on both the Left side and the Right Side and also the Mega Metal right down the middle lane
but I have to ask if you do know how to properly unlock either the Fortress or the Heavy Metal Heroes as well I will try your tactic but a reply on this would be appreciated.

[SGC | Happensmaker]

Ouh, that's easy. Your lucky that I'm working on a Map guide, so I have pretty much every information you need right now.

The Heavy Metal Hero:
You can unlock him in Mission 8. The lab that you need to find is pretty far in the south-east.
Be aware that in this mission the AI cannot produce new units (well you too) so best thing is to moe down all of the AI units expect the Radar unit. Otherwise you will never reach that lab on normal occasion.
Btw. there are two labs behind enemy lines.

The Fortress Hero:
You can unlock him in Mission 13. The lab needed is in the north-east. It is hidden behind a Forest, but reachable if you stand on the Factory there with an infantry unit.

Your welcome but be aware, I do not know if the Map layout has changed since the difficult patch. And I cannot recheck as long as I'm still sketching down the New Game + maps.

Welp just finished the main story many thanks to the 3 people who helped and subscribed Im not sure if there is any other heroes I have to collect other than the Heavy Metal and Fortress so special thanks to
Daniel - Tiny Metal Game Dev at Area 35 for telling me that I didnt need a specific Hero to win
millinagi - Tactics Expert on the 14th Misssion
Happensmaker - Hero Location Informant and Ideal Hero Suggestion.

P.S Happens Idk why but when I type your full name it blurrs out part of your name
sorry

[TINY METAL (AREA35) Daniel]

Great to hear you found a strategy which worked for you Mortis!

Thank you millinagi & Happensmaker for being so helpful!

Daniel

[SGC | Happensmaker]

@Mortis
Don't worry. I don't understand it either why the word s-mak is being censored. For me it just sounds like a different word for hitting or punching (even if it doesn't mean that), so not very aggresive to be censored.

But be it as it is, And I don't want to change my name.
So you could call me Happy if thats easier for you, its what call me most of my friends online.

Whoever designed the last mission or made it harder should be fired.
How can you screw up an actually good game so badly with an adjustment? You got through the whole game, you had to be tactical and the level of difficulty was pleasant.
I've restarted the ♥♥♥♥ 7 times in a row now and none of the tactics work.
Unfeasible even with hero units.
Apparently there is "one" tactic, sorry, but if only one crappy way works then it's not a strategy game but a puzzle game and that's really annoying.
