Title says it all. I played through the Resistance side fairly quickly, now it did have its challenges mostly complicated by the stupid AI but it was fun. So now im playing through the Security missions and they are just hard as [censored]. I mean nothing close to the moderate difficulty i was having on resistance. Its like my AI just has no clue what to do, cant kill anything and the opposing team is just pro, they just straight up dominate. Anyone else having this problem or should this just be lumped in to the thread about how pathetic the AI is in this game, more specifically the AI on your own team.

I've done both now and I'm going to certain mission that I really enjoyed for extra XP on both sides and at first it seems that being the Resistance is easier, but I think it is about ever. If you have two smart engineers on your team for "Fallout" the game is a lock, its without a doubt the easiest, yet most fun mission on both sides. I think it's more that you came over from Resistance to Security and now have to do the similar missions backwards and your thinking and playing like you are resistance. I'm sure once you play through them both and start doing the missions over again you'll see that they are infact equal. Brink is a game that requires GREAT skill, patience and determination. Just hang in there, it'll get better. :thumbsup:

Defense is about 9 times easier than offense on this game. I haven't finished the Resistance campaign but the first 5 seem like a lot of defense missions.

Bots seem competent at holding a location they're meant to, but for some reason can't assault it very well. They also obsess over any and all CPs, which amount to nothing in the grand scheme of things at 2 minutes left.

They do perform... better on harder difficulties, but the enemy is always a step up. I understand the developers wanted the player to feel like the hero (despite being essentially a stage prop in the few cut-scenes I do appear in,) but really, it feels like I'm the only person on the field against an elite kill squad over half the time (because the AI is a cheating bastard and doesn't miss.) I wish they'd be on the same level, even if the compromise was I had to do all the objectives myself.

I haven't tried Resistance yet, but I know that I finished the Security campaign in less than 2 and a half hours.

I also noticed that they no longer just let me lay there. They never killed me once on resistance side, now everytime they incapacitate me they literally make sure they come over and murder me lol so i have to respawn.

I don't know about easier. Struggling in the day 8 resistance mission online right now. >< last one i need for that fanged achievement too

A hundred times yes! im playing security now and its unbelievably frustrating. my team refuses to cooperate and i know ham talked about their sheer stupidity but i feel like hes just [censored]ting to cover his tracks because im stuck on the hacking the missile mission. my team just wont cover me. And im not even going to start to rant on the be more challenge ughhhhh

I was stuck on the middle mission for a while too and I found it easier to just stay as the engineer and when u get to the missile are camp the room with the two doors and lay a medium turret facing the way the missile shoots. Honestly though its a lot of luck required if u can clear that area out ur team should run up there and plant hack after that its pretty easy just hard to get them there.



P.s. also the higher level u are the harder the AI, most peeps played resistance first and did like super awesome and now security is too hard but same would hold true the other way around I beat resistance on normal and the first 5 of security on norm b4 I switched to easy and was still getting owned. Hope this helps extremely frustrating mission!

I tried to do Resistance first, but I can't with my teammate bots, lol.
But, when I decided to switch to Security, the missions are still really hard (even on Easy), but I manage to pass the first two story mission maps, yes! (Couldn't pass
the first Resistance map, though, lol!)

I don't know why, though. *shrug* Maybe it depends on the type of missions?

i find resistance a bit easier on campaign, and significantly moreso in multiplayer matches.

Yes Security is harder. Reason: They only have 2 defense missions where Resistance has 3, that gives R an even number of O and D missions resulting in an easier time.

Offensive missions are 10 times harder than defensive ones. Mainly due to AI that refuses to do its job 9 times out of ten.

I had a hell of a time with some missions, the mission to recover Nachayev was a killer. I can't help but feel that the other bots are smarter than mine, but online play seems solid and a few humans really ease it out. I managed to get through almost all the missions on normal, and I've found that a heavy can be really useful as he can tie up enemies with a minigun or HMG, but your bots prefer CPs to Objectives.
