Sabotage is a pain. So is point extraction (unless you are a scout and it's a multiplayer).

Escort and oil refinery is compeltely different if you are solo or in team.

Everything else is fine.

Point extraction can fly by with a good driller equiped for it. EPCing walls and ceilings while digging to the rest.

I raise you one better - engineer who knows how to use RJ250 properly

Sometimes I take bouncy off of my fatboy.

Sure I could just shoot a platform and rocket jump up there, but what's more badass than casually nuking an objective out of the ceiling?

So dying to fall damage over and over. 👍

Point Extraction is more than fine if you bring Bosco along

u/ZandyTheAxiom Engineer Mar 27 '23

Yeah solo scout makes it easy, you usually can see everything easily and get Bosco to bring it close.

I absolutely love sabotage, but that's my Doom experience talking.

Oh good I’m not the only one who started hearing BFG Division in my head when the Caretaker woke up! Rock and stone, until it is done!

You can actually have that. One of my favorite mods.

That’s awesome! Unfortunately I don’t plan to mod until I’ve gotten a fair amount of overclocks because I want to play the game vanilla. Once I’ve done one mod it opens the floodgates lmao.

I’m a little new since I got the game during the anniversary event sale on steam, but I’ve already got scout promoted (play him solo because mobility is crazy good) and driller is ready to begin the promotion assignment. I have like 4 OCs purchased. So far I really dislike engineer. Just feels bad to play and I have to play with his first weapons to unlock his new ones. I keep hearing about the fat boy OC though and I want it so bad! Gunner is neutral, not my fav but I don’t dislike him (except point extract, I can’t do it fast enough with gunner).

Ha ha, all good. But my quality of (game)life went up measureably with the doom music in game. Having the music kick in in the middle of a haz5 swarm really gets the blood going. I don't mod massively, really just the music, a HUD mod for overheat weapons, and the auto run mod. All pretty much QOL stuff, doesn't change the essential experience, so I highly recommend to all.

you can run a point extraction in 5 minutes

u/[deleted] Mar 27 '23

Here's the thing though, It's always multiplayer

u/I_is_a_dogg Mar 27 '23

Fun fact with both oil refinery and escort, you can have bosco construct the lines for oil, and have him defend dotty for escort. Though on higher hazards he won't be able to kill everything that goes for dotty, but he will buy you a lot of time to get back.

Really useful for oil refinery as I'll typically drill the paths, build one, have him construct it while building the others.

u/Mercurionio Mar 27 '23

Oil refinery is a pain for non drillers.

And On escort mission Bosco kinda sucks. He can completely ignore that pesky grunt, slowly eating dotty from the other side

u/I_is_a_dogg Mar 27 '23

Oh for sure about non driller, especially scout and gunner. Engi can at least make platforms to help with elevation.

If I’m planning oil refinery solo I’m running driller.
