Oh, season 2 started? I will need to get done with Hitman 3 and get back on this now then. Ha, I’m also dividing my time between DMZ and Hitman Freelancer, it seems I really have a thing for “if you die you lose your guns” games Vigor was my first love in this genre but no-one else around here liked Vigor

They have definitely toned down the tier 1 enemies but the tier 3 seem as bad as they ever were and they are the problem. You get far too many of them in an area at a time and once an area is infested with them you are in trouble. The propose of the wipe was supposed to be to make it easier to get a second insured slot but they haven't done that properly either.
At the weekend there was a bug though where if you put your insured weapon as a secondary and then don't equip a primary when you deploy it didn't put your insured weapon on cooldown if you died. It also allowed you to swap weapons at exfil with your squadmate and then would get their insured weapon as a contraband gun. Not sure if it's been patched or not yet but it was quite handy for building up some decent contraband.

The AI just swamps you now, so you can't hang around in one area for too long. As said, the Tier 3 "smokies" will put you on your arse if you don't work as a team or get out of Dodge quickly enough. This has made the task of an easy Rescue Hostage mission a PITA as they will leather you in close quarters, without having a 3 plate vest on.

Its alright if it's you that stayed there too long as you kind of bring it on yourself. But if you run through another area where someone else has done it you get instafucked and there is nothing you can do. We had it with the flooded building bit, trying to get to final extract. I was driving the boat through it and was instakilled by them all shooting me in milliseconds.

Seems like they've toned down the Level 1 and 2 grunts back to Season 1 levels in the last week. Making DMZ a bit more accessible at least.

Its all fun and games until a level 3 with a shotgun snipes you from 150 metres
Although a fully kitted out Raal makes mincemeat of them, how it hasn't been nerfed yet is a mystery. Its ttk is almost half any other gun.

I've heard that it's reverted them back to their old behaviour. I think that's unintentional though so hopefully they get fixed again soon as I feel they were in a good place before.

Spawned at the beach cafe place at the south-western most city area which usually has quite a lot of troops at it, and someone shot one with a non-silenced weapon. All of a sudden about 10+ advanced infantry rushed us. Died within a few mins. Hurrah.

That new marksman rifle is absolutely filthy, we were both running it in dmz today and we're absolutely ruining people. Fully levelled it in 3 games as well.

Which one is this? I like a nice marksman rifle.
Just levelled the taq-m, now trying the sa-b something or other which i quite like too.
Prefer an AR tbh, but need something to level up. 😀

It's not quite up with the dmr of warzone fame but it's not far off. Only downside is it used sniper ammo so you find yourself buying a few ammo boxes across a game of dmz. For doing the multi kills an ebr or quickscope spr will do the job. Play the small map rotation and hope for shipment.

If you equip an ammo box at the match join, then pick up a second equipment thing like a drone etc before using the ammo box, you can use the ammo, the equip the second thing after and normally get your og ammo box back again.
I worked this out after trying to equip a second ammo box after using my first ages ago. It was claiming i already had one equipped.
Saves a few thousand on rebuying them. Although imo, every operator should really be carrying one from the start.

Yeah I know, I abused the hell out of that, fortunately my contraband is full of other players weapons so I still have a decent selection. To be fair I dont seem to die that often and if you knock out a couple of contracts you can knock an hour off the timer in a game.
AI has been nerfed again apparently but still a bit harder than it was pre patch.

Vortex that will explain why we found about 10 armour boxes on the floor the other day all in one spot. Also how some git up the top of the tower replated every time I sniped him for about 10 minutes.

I love building 21 and it should be open all the time. We fought our way up the the top earlier, took out a few teams and got into the core room.
Threw the camera up on to the ceiling to complete the mission and the fucking thing blew up meaning I have to do it all over again.
Love dmz, hate the bugs!

Yeah I think it's been fixed. They could have stopped them falling through the floor at the same time so they don't become unusable. We got a team a beauty on the train, they were at the back shooting at us. One of us stayed at the front exchanging fire with them and the other 2 jumped off and led down until the train was almost past. We jumped on the back and rinsed them, they had no idea what was going on

I saw an ai soldier embedded in a road with just a head sticking up and some floating weapons after killing some others.
It seems much buggier in DMZ.

So i was going to start grinding to unlock this tempus torrent in normal mp later this week, but looted one of the fancy pack ones not long ago. Noice.
Seems good. Looking forward to levelling it up and adding my favourite shit onto it. Seems decent like the hemlock.
Then just the lockwood to go for the full set of marksman rifle at top level.
Then i s'pose i'll have to start on the less common smg & sniper variants.

Finally finished tier 3 crown, ended up downing a player and negotiating with him to call in a Heli for us in exchange for us tapping him with a revive pistol so he wouldn't die. Basically took him hostage and marched him across the map to do it for us.
Also did the raid today (ep2) it's much easier than the first but requires a lot of co-ordination.
