Some of you will know this, but I’ve seen the majority of players miss this entirely.
The infected tree set piece at the end of the mission: after you’ve done the first scan and uploaded the data, you’ll hear the audio cue of follow the servo skull, but due to the constant stream of enemies and the fact the servo skull is high above you, most people don’t even see or think about it at this point.
What you’re supposed to do is follow it anti-clockwise around the tree, and then the second scan triggers. The faster you do this loop, the faster you can get back to scanning.
Experienced players tend to do the objectives first, so new players are generally slow to discover stuff like this.
This man scans. Seems to be uncommon knowledge, I blame the obvious design flaw of them having a drop in the zone, which made them probably have to lop off the scan zone up top (there are numerous theories I operate about many questionable design choices, it seems very likely that there was another zone up there, but play testers probably kept jumping down before completing it).
lmao, 460 hours in and I thought I was supposed to just wait for it to do its stupid loop of the tree. It always seems to take the same amount of time regardless of whether anyone is near it, so I figured it was scripted.
