Please remove the "job on the side" mission.


(MyPingIsHuge) #1

It’s the “do X secondary objectives” mission. Just turns the match into a race to see who can do the secondary obj faster, beeing infuriating to complete most of the time. Please get rid of it!

my biggest gripe with it is how uneven this mission is with maps. I don’t want a mission to be map-specific.

Underground has plenty secondaries, chapel just has one. If you want to complete the mission, you never want to play chapel.

Agreed…

Its a lame mission… A few times, on a shorthanded team on Chapel… seen the only engy bolt to build the bridge thingy instead of the EV…
As we fought to control the area around the EV, they are off doing a secondary obj and ignore the Primary! :mad:

Just like the Comp mission, i just delete this one as well…

Not only map-specific, but also class-specific. There’s no variety, nearly all side objectives are constructibles for attackers and destructibles for defenders (or the other way round). I think that the spawn in Terminal is the only easy-for-non-engi side objective, but not sure if and when capturing it counts. Considering that there’s no engi class available by default, this mission may be very hard for low level newbies.

Two - the MG ramp and the bridge near the delivery place. Trainyard is the contrast to Underground with only the side gate.
EDIT: nvm, it has two gates too.

Yes, it’s a mission that detracts from playing for the win so it should be removed imo.


(alphabeta) #6

It is worthless and detracting to a “team based” FPS. Like blowing up outside deployables in ETQW when the last objective is indoors!

Yup, bin it, it’s very annoying.

(or re-add the elevator criteria, then it’s the best mission in the game…"

This.

It was a jackpot for getting elevator rides.

I dont even know how im supposed to do 6 side objectives. Every other mission can be done in 1 or 2matches max.
But honestly I dont even want the requirement lowered, just trash this and the comp ones as well. Please, I beg you.

Edit: I came here to post a thread about it and found one already as the most current topic :smiley:

I have to agree on this (since the lift bug was fixed, that explained a few things ;)) - I had it going for two days before it finally completed. I also vote to remove the ‘play 1 competitive match’ one as well (I just delete this one when it comes up).
