Hardest Campaign Mission

Post by Nova Hawk »

I think there might have been a thread like this before, but I'm not sure. Well, for me the hardest mission on the campaign was the Knight Fall. 'Cause keeping those bookcases alive while the Jedi and guards were trying to destroy it is kinda tough, especially for two minutes. The next one would have to be the final mission, Our Finest Hour.

They were all actually fairly easy for me, I didn't have any major difficulty that stands out in my memories.

Except.....

Don't laugh at me: Geonosis. I know I have infinite reinforcements and no limit of lives. I don't care. Back before I knew how to play BF2, Objective 7, "Capture the Cliff CP", was impossible. Everytime I got even halfway up that insanely steep hill, a rocket to the head would send me back down. Then I figured out that if I walked a bit farther away from the AT-TE, the slope got a good deal gentler. I made it, on average, 4/5ths the way up.

Then I realized I could use the Jet Trooper, and it was all downhill, or rather uphill, from there. :wink:

Too many enemies, too few mines. I usually stay in the platforms and lob grenades at the droids below.

That depends on which difficulty level you are playing it, I guess.

For the Kashyyyk mission, you can always stay close to the refinery while in a tank and blast at any droids that enter the fort thing. You may frequently kill your own team mates but it has worked every time for me.

Agree with that. For the bookcases, I used an engineer and guarded one bookcase. That way you can blast Jedi with the shotgun and repair the single bookcase between waves. For Hoth, it's just the first objective that gets me every time. That cp just seems really difficult to capture. I might get it down to neutral, but then some Rebel kills me and recaptures it, and the process starts all over again.

Grab an IFT-X (or IFT-T, I can never remember) and sit in front of the refinery. Blast anyone that gets too close, but focus on incoming tanks first.

I had no clue bookcases could be repaired. For that neutral CP, I just get in a AT-AT and start blasting the heck out of the Rebels, then I capture it, although I have the AI set at Easy, so it might be different for you.

I'm always trying to repair anything I can find with the engineer, even the scenery. :lol: So I quickly found out that I could repair the bookcases and used the same strategy as Eggman's.

@AQT and Twilight_Warrior: thanks for the advice guys, I will definitely try that (if I ever get to play the campaign again).

for the knightfall coruscant one.
you should be an engineer and stand right by one of the bookcases.
Then when a Jedi comes on either side, shoot them with a shotgun.
if the jedi damages it, use the fusion cutter to constantly repair it.

Agreed, that's how I always beat it, and when that fails I just use mines. But you know you can always turn the friendly fire off.

Knightfall, protecting the bookcases.
Hoth, protecting the bomb.
Kashyyyk, protecting the refinery.

QFT. Any of the Protect/Escort objectives in the campaign sucked out loud.

Other then the refinery (which was easy to defend with a tank), I completely agree.
Just played Hoth the other day and the Rebels just had to throw a hundred grenades at the orbital beacon, ruining the whole mission with 10 seconds left. :(
