Please leave one enemy alive in the Lincoln Tunnel bomb defuse portion of the Challenge mission.

PSA

I'm really surprised nobody does this.

Leaving one enemy alive prevents endless waves of bad guys from rushing you and wasting your ammo / resources. My squad likes to kill the golf club rushers and leave the last LMG guy alive and suppressed as far back as possible. Keep him suppressed for the remaining time of the 2 minutes and you will avoid having to fight more waves.

You can take his armor down so the kill is quick after the timer runs out. But please, don't kill the last enemy. You will thank you.

But there's an ammo chest right at the back of the tunnel. I'd rather get xp/credits/drops...

I'd rather fight the waves. More fun than waiting out a timer.

Been doing this since i heard this strat. Sucky part is when people dont have mics or are in party chat and cant hear you when you say leave 1 mob up

It's not "scared". Killing the mobs is easy, but unnecessary. I'd rather spend the 2 minute downtime keeping up with friends and checking Reddit!

Because eventually this cheese-strat will get patched and your kind wont know what to do?

"your kind" lol. It's called efficiency. Some people like efficient farming. There's no reason to fight all three waves when you only have to fight one.

Efficiency won't mean a thing when it's fixed and people whine cause they can't handle all 3 waves the way it should be done.

Chest puffed: check, flairing of those feathers: check, over sensative gamer ego: check.

unfortunately this will be patched since you decided to blab it on here

now enemies will automatically spawn at time intervals

do you feel good about yourself?

Yea, the developers would never have known how their game works if it wasn't for us silly players!

To be honest, I'd be happy if "blabbing" caused them to make it more interesting. The 2 minute downtime is actually a lull in an otherwise well crafted mission.

Why we cant ever have nice things.. Sort of like everyone hopping on the vectors dick. Gun isnt as special as people say it it but because of how widely its used it will be nerfed.
