i cant believe i actually made it. this was so hard 10/10 mission

map is great. only thing is when i do my single plan there is a 50/50 chance the oil rig just explodes even tho im no where near the s-vest guy

Quit making the suicide bomber detonate the entire oil deck before you even get close to the hostage.

@MeiQ Congrats and thank you very much for your dedication!
This is one of my most difficult maps.

it costs me a whole week to 3* the map great work

Map is great but i dunno it's kinda glitch or intended, that suicide bomber in oil tank just randomly explodes when not even close to location

This map is awesome, but nuts, angles are crazy

It's my pleasure. I should tank you as well for making these amazing maps. It must be hard work. Thanks for your effort!

oh cool! And thanks again for being tryhard on my map(s), greatly appreciated!

I get reply from devs which say they're aware of the bug and will fix in next update.

Hahaha, because the challenge is more difficult you will get more pleasure when you finally find your ideas can be completed. Of course, expect with bug.

I see the changes. I like that. But unfortunately, my replays of this map is invalided and the map is back to initial state and the a single plan challenge doesn't unlock. Lucky thing is that I have videos. I think I will try again and do better, maybe after devs fix the path disappear bug.

Yeah, I have sent the feesback to devs. Hope they will give me reply and fix the bug.

I added a single plan challenge^^ It seems chinese community enjoy extra difficult challenges^^
Good, good! Evil laugh^^

I see, sorry it's happening, i don't think i can do anything about paths disappearing. Your best bet is to contact the devs. They upgrade and fix numerous things from user's feedback (example large map beyond 128 * 128 wouldnt save single plans, path limited to 400meters etc)

Thanks for your patient reply. The bug 1 means path disappear. I think that is the bug of game program because I have met it in the other map before.

first i m giving more space to bug 2 hostage, and also make outside hostage visible. Hostage spawns at random but its easier to manage path in advance i guess.

Thanks for letting me know. And congrats for doing single plans.

I did not enable single plan challenges on large map because of the issue you are mentionning.
Sometimes hostages become finnicky and refuse to leave, so you need go back and tell them to follow again :(

Also not everyone knows clicking ON path doesn't cancel single plan reward. (for invisible hostage rescue or bomb defusing single plan)


Bug2:
I tried to replicate your plan and hostage follows me everytime unlike the hostage in video. :(
I noted that hostage and vip stand in place and bug (in any map) if you pause the moment they become free, or do a lot of order just when they get free.
I will try to give more space to hostage for easier path.

Bug 1, i'm sorry i don't understand. Do you mean the operator 1 to 5 lose their path? Path disappear?

Or they random die?

Not much people play my maps seriously, so i dont get many bug reports.
Don't hesitate to tell me, i will try and fix them.

The map is difficult but interesting. I have 3 starts completed it with a single plan and share the video on the bilibili website. I encountered two bug when I ran the map. The first one is that there is a chance lost route with 1-5 team member when I restart. The second is the hostage in the oil tank area don't follow my operator when he is untied. The bug 1 really makes me crazy. You can see the bug 2 in my second video, though it can win with 3 start, the hostage is lost actually. I think I should make batter in the second half, but when I try to optimize route I always lose my operator or encounter bug, so I didn't.

@Y955YIt's just me, lots of coffee, and sleepless nights^^
Thank you for the kind words, sir :)

The PIF35 series of maps have a huge workload, and the use of the editor is better than the official. I guess this must be the amateur work of multiple professional game producers, otherwise this is crazy

@w1992 Good to hear, i also enjoy this way of playing.
I try to balance my maps so that finishing it with 1 or 2 stars is doable, but not without casualties and all, but 3 stars really has to be a well thought synchronized plan and punish mistakes and lazyness hard. Like you cant just expect to run and gun like call of duty and get away.

Getting feedback like yours and other makes my day as map maker^^

Here is another Bilibili guy who got 3 stars on this one, he is actually the first one who did that.

I have watched his replay, I think he might have memorized some enemies whereabouts.

after multiple times I tried, I sort of have enough ideas about most enemies positions, but some areas I still insist on risking rangers lives such as the area on the southeast where there is a hostage. To me, bringing guns to clear that area instead of precise frag-tossing seems, u know, make sense, that I have to pretend that I didn't know how many tangos over there and maybe an extra unknown hostage....

I know this is just a game, but sometimes I could be that stubbornly serious treating this as some real life situation.

@w1992 i'm waiting for the update too and i plan to do a big balance pass on all maps if there are new mechanics and units!

discord too is blocked, some could visit but through quite complicated ways about by-passing the firewall, even for steam community I have to use an web accelerator to enter.

Still I have to say, your missions are never easy XD. This one took me two weeks to make it without man down but still there is one operator got injured before the diner assault.

I've been trying your another mission named NightStalker lately, for now I think I'm gonna wait on the huge update and bring Delta in that one.

@w1992 yeah that situation is unfortunate. I made sure to share your channel and awesome tactics to other DK2 enthusiasts!
Is discord blocked as well? The dk2 discord is a good place to share your gameplay.

Not at all, I would love to share my videos with others, so far Bilibili is the only website where I put my dk2 videos
I'm sure people could visit Bilibili and even register an account, cuz I often see there are people all over the world sharing their daily life there. However, u know how internet is in China, some social media or websites such as facebook, Utube are not allowed for us to visit.

@w1992 whaaah truly amazing! Do you mind if i showcase your video on the map description?
And any link you'd like to share like your channel etc...
Also big thanks for taking the challenge!

Actually, I did make a video and upload on Bilibili if u heard this website before.

here is the link. I wish I could upload it on Utube, and I don't know if this link could be opened from here

@w1992 amazing! I use obs to record my replays. Its very simple.
Let me know if you make a video! And if you want to put it on the presentation page here ;)

I've 3-star-ed this one actually, wish I could share on Utube

hostage in the room with the two beds, gets stuck on the bed and wont obey orders

First off, I hate you. You sick human who would make a map like this. Also, I WILL 3 STAR THIS DAMN LEVEL.

You know that intro to Battlefield 1? "You are not expected to survive". Yeah this map is that. I would love to see anyone get more than a star on this map. There are a few bugs and some perhaps difficultly crafted bits but overall its a good map to tear your hair out to.

Incredible work, sometimes felt like a movie with all the shootouts, explosions and action. Keep it up

What an artist! You should straight up be an official map maker, all your maps are very well done and detailed.

Insanely difficult, but wow, what a great job, spent longer on this mission than most chapters of the campaign, and still cant beat it. The only thing i have kinda against this is how the enemies feel super strong AND they outnumber you massively, sometimes i found myself just being deleted in one shot

@communist_apple Thank you very much for your review, yes i try to make my maps challenging this way:
Finish them is already difficult, (so lots of casualties) and three starring them requires flawless planning.

@Neopolitan Certains objects block vision by default, but if you could point me to the problematic area, i can look into it.
I'm constantly updating maps, and fine tuning maps so feedback is always welcome.

A handful of line of sight errors on this map. Operators can't see through random areas when theres nothing there

This has got to be the most insanely difficult map i have seen for this game yet. Every fire team i had was systematically dismantled, or just straight slaughtered. Whether by the executioner, or crossfire, I lost 13/27 hostages.
Having said that, it was also one of the best maps i have played in this game yet. I just love how you need door breaches to more easily take the conference room, and the room by room clearance on the left side is oddly satisfying.

@Jinkis
Thank you very much for playing!
Having played old rainbow six for years, i make my maps very challenging (at least i try to); while it might not appeal to everyone, i'm glad there are many players who enjoy the planning and strategic gameplay.

Dude your maps are very creative, really enjoyed the strategic difficulty on this one too.
