SLUGFly Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I really think this is the best survival. Unfortunately, it's way easier BUT I feel it's easier because I'm fighting AI challenges as opposed to fighting spawn-anywhere challenges. There's loads of other reasons but what's the community think? What are the reasons (so Rockstar can repeat them) that MB survival is so awesome? If you don't like it (but do like survivals), what's wrong with it? What are the reasons (so Rockstar can avoid them) that MB survival is weak?

E•MO•TION Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) It's definitely one of the easier ones. I like how it keeps you moving, instead of camping (i.e. behind the shed in the Boneyard), but it has lots of cover spots as well.

SaturdayNight Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I died while doing this... Haven't found a viable spot and there were too many cops to be out in the open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-Lonely-Dragon Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 The best spot is behind the curved hedge above the fountain area. -- As long as you have at least one person with you so the choppers can be easily dealt with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con9mm Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Gonna have to contact my crew and give it a go later!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLUGFly Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 We did it with three and all three of us roamed around the glass walls, coming together when things got too hairy. One of us died twice, not me when I average around 4 deaths per survival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High_Pockets Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I spent 5 rounds just trying to run everywhere to see what's what with hiding places and spawn points. Died in the 6th. Looking forward to giving it another go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theNGclan Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 It's definitely the best survival yet. I'm looking forward to more urban survivals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luther_Vandross Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I like that there are multiple places to run to for cover and fight from, as opposed to the original survivals which had one or two easy camping spots. Also, along with Del Perro Pier, I like fighting in the middle of the city rather than the outskirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how it keeps you moving, instead of camping (i.e. behind the shed in the Boneyard), but it has lots of cover spots as well. Yeah I was just doing it earlier and I didn't use or go into cover at all. I just ran around and shot cops with my Combat MG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKush Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 This has been a lot of fun so far. First time made it to round 5. Then won 3 consecutive times with 2 others. Behind the curved hedge does appear to be "the spot". But as long as you guys stay close together, there are plenty of locations to take cover, with good vantage points.

Biggie Kaniff Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah I like it too. A fun survival were you have to keep moving instead of just camp. Well you don't have to, the best thing might be to camp, but when you move around it becomes a lot more fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foppezão Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Did this come with the business update?Gotta check this out, any more new survival maps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKush Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah if I'm not mistaken, this wasn't listed in the update notes, at least not when I read it. Only 1 new map, but that 1 map has me excited for any future survival maps. Its way more fun in the beginning while people are still figuring out how they like to play the map. Then you can show them what's good when they inevitably spectate lol Foppezão 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Rosenthal Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Maybe the best survival yet! Tried it first and only time yesterday, reached wave 6... Will definitely try it again soon, and try and figure out the best strategy... Will also try that place behind the hedges that people have mentioned. I agree though, that what makes it fun is that it's hard to be in one spot the whole time - or rather, the abundance of cover really makes it fun to run around a lot. Also couldn't help but notice the "heist-feeling" of this survival.. + the placement in downtown is awesome. Really cool all in all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foppezão Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) Really love this one! Everybody is on the move looking for a next sweet spot, mine is actually near the stairways, with the-sort of- stone columns.

IVIechanomics Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I didn't care for it that much, though I still like it better than Del Perro Pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luisniko Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Not sure why, I personally feel everything except the sirens in this Survival is more interesting than others. The behavior of the enemy is somewhat different too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misanthrope Z Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 sure it's fun and new but the AI still ruins it by forcing you to do nothing but camp, due to them being WAY too accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Lynx 23 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 A survival map with Merryweather and their vehicles should be the next one. Or dare I ask for a survival with the aliens or clowns that Michael and Trevor imagined? Dr.Rosenthal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Rosenthal Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) A survival map with Merryweather and their vehicles should be the next one. Or dare I ask for a survival with the aliens or clowns that Michael and Trevor imagined? I am so hoping for a "standalone" SP/online DLC with Aliens and/or Clowns.. Doesn't seem too far-fetched either, considering R* promise of upcoming singleplayer campaign DLC and the Undead Nightmare DLC for RDR. Fingers crossed. Would be awesome. Also would be jetpack. Reached wave 10 on Maze Bank twice yesterday - it isn't very difficult if you're playing with friends/skilled players. I like it that it's possible to run around a alot. Sure, it's got some camping, but nowhere near the amount of Boneyard/Processed/Railyard, which are my other favorites. Del Pierro is annoying as hell. The only problem I*m having with this survival is that sometimes the enemy runs away and goes outside of the survival, like on the other side of the street which can be kind of annoying. On the plus side, love the impenetrable triangular glass covers, really make up for interesting cover techniques (and occasional mishaps).

juantrapriguez Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Played it for the first time today made it to wave 8. Pretty cool, I didn't get a heist vibe but its a breath of fresh air from boneyard and the pier, although I do like the pier better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luisniko Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Just beat it again last night with a friend. Basically don't get too far away from the team or the enemy will pop up at random stupid places. Yeah, I would like to have those Aliens and clowns as enemies. I think there still are characters we can fight for survival, like the Ballas, the CGF, Merryweather, and female cops. I think female cops would be great. I can think players are gonna get real pissed when they die because of machine-gun-wielding female cops LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
