Popular Post Anordinarybloke Posted May 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2021 This may or may not be known, but you can get around the 'no checkpoint restart' requirement for this decoration. When playing on Veteran difficulty, if you die, pause the game quickly upon being killed and Close Application. Go back into the game and Resume Story, this will continue where you left off and once you complete the mission you will have met the requirements. Do this for all missions and the Decoration will unlock. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XLordXNightmareX Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Very Nice! Solid Kudos to you! Now the plat is easier to attain ??? Edited May 21, 2021 by XLordXNightmareX 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarteX_305 Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Are you 100% sure this works tho? cuz technically when you use the resume story feature you reload a checkpoint right. Or is the game so confused that it just doesn't know anymore? Edited May 22, 2021 by KarteX_305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helloImD Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 This is a standard tactic. Just as you die, you immediately close the application and continue where the game last saved. It's also done for example KILLZONE: Shadow Fall Elite difficulty, where you'd have three lives for a whole playthrough but by quitting as you die you won't lose a life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be quick though, the moment you're down you have to pause and close app. If you want to be safe, equip emergency reserve, pause and close app while its reviving you.

For some reason the resume story feature is very glitchy for me, every time i use resume story it puts me in the 3rd mission. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is because you have a story already in progress. You cant do mission select from the main menu and have this work. You need to complete missions like this in one playthrough or select a mission from the hideout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy_roo_81 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) dunno if this will help anyone but if you use the emergency reserve ability which basically allows a free death, you can switch loadouts to replenish it and you can be technically immortal in missions where you defend near a loadout box (sand castle comes to mind.) Combine this with the close app trick and it makes the challenge so much easier. Edited June 3, 2021 by andy_roo_81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh-Tech1 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Can’t you just restart the entire mission again ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, however this exploit just means you start again from a checkpoint whilst obtaining the accolade. Some of the missions are pretty difficult and dying is rather easy, so using this exploit makes it trivial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresh-Tech1 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) I complete the story but some missions are green but not the others when I played though it in 1 play though on easy everything I resume I go back to that same mission Edited October 9, 2021 by Fresh-Tech1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr-Photo Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 This does not work for me on the first mission.. I always die right at the end trying to protect that stupid garbage, but yet when i resume story it acts as if I completed the mission but does not give me the accolade.

I did start with mission one.. but the Resume Mission always reverts to my existing playthrough which was at the start of 2nd mission I've just resorted to starting with mission 2.. ill go back to mission 1 once i complete the rest of the game.

You may have nailed this by now, but use firefly as soon as you regain control, and spam it till the area is clear If you have emergency reserve, going down doesn't negate the accolade.

Schnur3rr Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Does this still work? And what do you exactly mean with leave the game? Close the app or just the menu and press Save & Exit? One further thing. How do I know if the game accepted my playthrough? Can I play mission by mission or do I need to complete the camping in one go without selecting other missions in between? I just completed the first mission on Veteran with a few randoms online but sometimes there have been server migrations and I am not sure if it counts as no checkpoints? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUDGER666 Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 (edited) Yea Resume Story is what I was doing wrong, I was mission selecting. Stupid as to why why we can't just mission select. For anyone wondering if your save is halfway through the campaign it will go back to mission 1 once you finish the last mission.
