OmegaRejectz Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) I just recently beat COD WAW on Veteran and was wondering how comparable this games is. Probably the hardest shooter campaign I’ve done. edit: alright thanks. I’ll pick it up whenever I have time. It seems it’s about being slow & steady. It sounds like it’s like WAW but without BS enemy grenade spam that you really can’t do much about. If I remember I’ll come back to this post & update my experience with the game & it’s difficulty.

Elvick_ Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It's like Uncharted difficulty (can't speak for 4 though as I've yet to do that but I saw it on your list). The harder parts of FUBAR are harder than the hardest parts of Crushing in Uncharted 1-3/Lost Legacy. But, it's not impossible. It just takes some patience in a few problem areas. Any part where you have AI around isn't too bad, solo parts are usually the hardest parts. I finished FUBAR on PS Now with input delay so it can't be too bad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsn963 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Better prepare snacks and drinks, most of your time will be taking cover and ordering your teammates. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neospoon Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) It's doable, cheap but doable. As mentioned above, use your teammates while you stay behind cover. There will be parts you will get stuck on for a bit. Teammates will go down at moments you need them the most. Running out of bullets never really happened. Grenades work well on heavies. I took a year off from the game when I reached the Parking lot section. A year later after getting through that, the rest of the game was not really that hard. Compared to World at War I think it will be easier Good luck and don't go crazy. Edited November 20, 2019 by neospoon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REAPER4536 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 If you are one of the guys who die once and say it's to difficult then you won't get this platinum. You have finished WAW and I guess you died a lot (at least I hope you did). You will get through most of the levels by playing like a normal soldier which means if you don't 1vs99 on an open field but stay in cowering get kills by picking one, by one then you will be good. Sometimes you can struggle 15 minutes on one group of enemies but you will eventually win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGuy420 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 There's one spot that's super luck based IMO. I've talked to a few people about it and it seems to either be "got it first try" or "I tried a hundred times before giving up". I fall into the latter sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroGeass1 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Fubar was pretty easier compared to my first playthrough which was on hard I think. Once you know where the enemies come from and where the best places are to take cover it isn't so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Alchemist Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 There are parts which will make you want to pull your hair out. It's been a long time but if I recall correctly, the parking garage section gave me the most trouble and towards the end of the game there is another difficult bit. It isn't easy but like anything, if you persevere you will get there, but yeah, I definitely didn't enjoy doing it. Probably a 6 or 7 out of 10 in difficulty with the potential to spike a bit more in parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjoe1bkhjtqxm Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 The only nightmare is when you'll fall down from a building and you'll have to deal against 2-3 enemy waves alone without your team (I'm still stuck there after 2 years and I've never tried it again lol) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then camp around cover and take them out 1 by 1. You can also exploit it a bit as well. If an enemy is off camera (behind you) their behaviour will change. It takes them longer to target you etc. It takes a few tries but it’s not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUDGER666 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It's WAW without the insane amount of grenades and infinite spawning enemies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProfBambam55 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 overall I didn't find fubar too difficult...there are a couple tricky sections where you'll need to figure out where the best locations to take cover are and which guns to pick up/conserve ammo for...quick snapping headshots are always a good technique for this type of difficulty run as well...i think you'll find it reasonable... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoShifter Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) It is definitely hard (putting it at a 7/10 at the very least), period, but not horribly so outside some difficulty spike sections. Supposedly the difficulty is harder than the Uncharted trilogy on crushing but not as hard as CoD:WaW and Killzone 2 on veteran and elite, respectively. If you can do CoD:WaW then you should be able to manage FUBAR in SO:TL, as it appears to be slightly less difficult in comparison.

Cassylvania Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It's tough, but doable. The hardest sections are the ones already mentioned (parking garage, helicopter, and falling down the pit). You mostly want your teammates doing the killing. Conserve your ammo and grenades for the parts where they require help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wackt1 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) There are a lot of really hard parts in the game on that difficulty, especially near the end. But you need to use your teammates and lots of cover. I would be careful in the part directly after the helicopter crash when you're without your men, the parking garage, the final assault on Konrad's base and the radio tower part from the top of my head.

audiopile Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 As long as you don't get frustrated by respawning until you get it right its entirely do-able. Seems like people are in agreement there are 2-4 tricky parts but the rest is fine once you get into the rhythm. Great game and worth the struggle imo.

Cherrywood Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 The helicopter run is harder than it should be because it's not skill-based like the rest of the game is, it's completely and totally luck. I tried and failed many, many times and then I watched that part in a video of someone doing a FUBAR run. I can remember that, through repetition, I had it memorized enough to notice a single step his character was taking differently than mine was. Paused the video, tried it again, took that step at that moment, and made it through on my first try. The rest of the game, it's not easy, like the first responder said, it's like crushing in Uncharted but a little harder, it's down to whether or not you're good enough and dedicated enough to persevere and get through it, but that part, if you end up having a lot of trouble, watching a video may really help because it did with me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid-Fisch Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Is it true that you only have to play the last checkpoint of every chapter on Fubar difficulty and it still will count for the whole level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xylobe Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I really don't play shooters much at all, but I made it through FUBAR (mostly) unscathed. The key thing to remember (which I learned the hard way) is that the best weapon is the one with ammo. Be kind to your future self wherever possible, and try to make sure after every fight that you're as well-equipped for the next one as you can be before you reach the checkpoint. For the start of chapter 6 when you're alone, what you want to do is immediately run to the right when you load in, grab the shotgun and grenades, then go straight back to the car you were just behind and guard both sides with your life. For the helicopter chase, I heard a rumor that you actually run more slowly while carrying a heavy weapon as opposed to a pistol. I got lucky so I never needed to test that, but if you're struggling then it's worth a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
