Aug. 9th, 2017 11:08 pmOkay, I finally completed impossible mode today, so this is the last of these superhot vid posts.
Stairs impossible:
I really would like to complete this level without hotswitching, but haven't figured out how to do that yet. I mean, you have to move immediately, as there's a guy with an AR right above you ready to fire, and keep going until you catch up to shotgun guy ahead of you. Its the standard punch him for his shotgun, but the problem is there's so many guys and little cover. If you shoot him, try and toss your shotgun at pistol guy and take his gun, the other shotgun guy running up the stairs will get you.
You can shoot pistol guy with the shotgun and melee guy who's shotgun you stole to death, the problem is you have to be fast and there's only a little patch of ground where you're protected from both the AR guy at the top of the stairs, and shotgun guy charging from behind. Indeed, in this vid, I got lucky and the spread of pellets managed to just all barely miss me. Now ideally, I woulda hit the shotgun guy with the fire extinguisher I grabbed off the wall, but yet again, it accidentally impacts against the pillar I was just using for cover and ducked out of. Good thing he's close enough for me to melee and grab his shotgun, and that he and shovel guy are close enough to take out with one blast.
At this point, the only active enemy is AR guy at the top of stairs, and he has the high ground, so charging at him would be suicide. Especially since another AR guy is about to appear at the top of the stairs since I just finished killing the first wave of guys. So I have no choice but to hotswitch.
I have to still be fast though, grab the piece of rebar from the wall and toss it at assault rifle guy who appears to stun him and I can get a hold of his gun to finish him off. Now, the remaining guys are coming from below, so I take a drop of faith off the top platform, toss the shotgun at the first guy, so I can get his pistol, shoot him, throw that empty pistol at the next guy, and so forth until they're all dead.
Office impossible mode:
Only thing to say about this vid was I thought I was going to be able to hit all three guys with my shotgun and finally get that trophy. But I only get two with the blast. bbv('This is total BS!')
Station impossible mode:
This plays out pretty much like hard mode, except since I only have one bullet, when I toss my weapon at the assault rifle guy coming out of the door on the left and hotswitch into the other guy, I need to take him out with a melee before grabbing his rifle, because I need that bullet for the guys across the tracks. I pop one, then have to circle in place behind cover to waste time until my hotswitch refreshes and jump into the last guy.
I guess if I had more guts, I'd toss the rifle at the remaining guy to stun him long enough for me to jump the tracks and finish him off. But things went so smoothly, I didn't want to risk it.
Train impossible mode:
I realized if I shot the shotgun between the center and right guys, I could take them both out without having to use any of their own weapons on them after I hotswitch into the left guy. That freed up both the shotgun and AR for me to use against the guys who appear at the other end of the train.
So I quickly grab the AR to take out shotgun guy, toss it, then grab the shotgun and shoot it to take on pistol guy. Then I quickly turn around and toss the shotgun at the guy at the controls of the train. Unfortunately, the shotgun never reaches him, it gets shredded by the incoming rifle fire. But at least it blocked those shots. And since he's still too far away, I have no choice but to hotswitch into him to end the level.
Gate impossible mode:
Since the guns are only one shot, I have to be frugal with my shots. Start off the same way, hotswitch into guy in the booth, grab shotgun, and blow away shotgun guy outside. Toss the shotgun at the pistol guy running through the other door, but since I need his pistol to take out the guy by the truck, I finish him off with a melee since I'm shielded from the rest of the enemies right now.
So now I have one shot with the pistol that I can use to take out truck guy, then toss it at the pistol guy appearing outside the door. It would be tempting to use that discarded shotgun to take him out, but the rushing AR guy is the bigger threat. So I shred him with the shotgun, toss the shotgun to prevent pistol guy from picking up his pistol, and then melee-ing him to save the pistol for one of the AR guys.
Pop off a shot to kill the left guy, and I was hoping to get through this level without hotswitching again, by tossing the empty pistol at the guy on the right in the hopes I can rush him. But I miss, so I have no choice but to jump into him to end the level.
Lobby impossible mode:
Hey, managed to do the final level without having to hotswitch at all. Like in hard mode, I cut down the first guy, toss the sword into the second and grab pistol guy's pistol and quickly pop the guy charging me from the far door on my right. I don't have time to see if the shot hits, I just listen for the shattering sound indicating I got him. Then I go into the side room.
Lucky for me, the assault rifle guy usually there has charged out the other door as I ran in. I give chase through that door, tossing the pistol at the AR guy to my right to make him drop his gun, and then grabbing the AR dropped by the guy I killed with the katana toss to finish him off.
I toss the AR and quickly run over to grab the fresh AR from the guy I just killed, which I use to kill the pistol guy who appears. Toss the rifle, I'm about to pick up pistol guy's pistol, but opt for the shotgun instead. I use it to blow away the assault rifle guy who appears, then toss it at the shotgun guy who appears so I don't have to worry about getting shot while I take care of katana guy.
Punch him, take his katana, chop him down then toss it at the last guy for the win.
