@Salsa: I didn't realize it was possible to exit the Warlord boss battle area? Maybe it could have something to due with save game corruption I would check that out.
'Interloper' Unreal Difficulty No Saves : Part 8 - 'Welcome To Site B'This map was more of a challenge for No Saves on Unreal difficulty due to shear length and enemy count. That said, with knowledge of enemy placement in advance it's really not as challenging as maps like 'To Bodly Go' and 'Dam'. I definitely get a 'Zephon' vibe from both this one and 'Friendly' which works well as an "outdoor action intermission (tm)" to get to the real golden section of the pack.
# of resets: I think twice, I honestly can't remember how or why. I think fighting hordes of enemy and being trapped in a corner was the culprit for at least one.
weapon of choice: Sniper Rifle. You definitely need to utilize it and use ammo consumption on this map for the Sniper to make it through with ease.
Toughest area: I'll go with the Nali Village, but honestly there are a few other areas that are just as difficult throughout.
'Interloper' Unreal Difficulty No Saves : Part 9 - 'Friendly Providence'This map is tough No Resets on Unreal difficulty. I definitely felt not having a few saves on this one as most of my resets were due to falling of a cliff which sucks because it's a considerably long map. So with the enemy difficuly level of 'Welcome to Site B' there is also the added difficulty of not falling off ledges.
# of resets: 4. Two of the resets were due to falling off the Manta canyon area. The other two resets were at the dreaded "wooden elevator of death".
Hardest area: Dreaded wooden elevator of death.
Weapon of choice: Plasma Rifle / Ripper
'Interloper' Unreal Difficulty No Saves : Part 10 - 'On Thin Ice'On thin Ice was actually not that bad. I think I had to reset only one time on this map and I believe it was just due to some random Trooper that ambushed me from behind. If you're dreading the Skaarj ambush area in the map, just take a look at my video on how to beat that section easily. I found this method on my previous run-through on Unreal difficulty. I would honestly say that 'On Thin Ice' is actually on the easier side of Interloper with proper map knowledge and strategy.
# of resets: 1
Toughest area: I would say the final Skaarj Trooper room. That area did take me by surprise.
Weapon of choice: Bio Rifle
Video Spoilers:
So funny thing is, I've actually already beat 'Interloper' No Saves on Unreal difficulty on my second reset, but forgot to hit the record button on the video! Oh well, I honestly don't mind playing such an awesome map over again. I finally made it to the heart of Interloper.
