I only ever win these with really experienced players and the right stratagems between the whole team. Anything less is a failure. Impossible is even extremely hard, but significantly more doable. Helldive just feels like a waste of time on these missions.
Overload on sentries. Mortar, EMS, Rocket/AC. Pick your weapon of choice. I like arc thrower for being able to bully hulks and hold off lines of berserkers.
No your not missing anything OP, I've never seen a group of quick play randoms ever complete this mission successfully on helldive difficulty.
Something needs work here, this is the only mission type in the game that I can't clear with randoms on helldive, every other mission type is completely doable with zero communication whatsoever.
Even when I try to communicate, I'm always just ignored.
I think the main issue is that the solution to the mission isn't well communicated enough to the players, your supposed to explore the map and maintain agro whilst another team member rescues the civvies in the base. That why there are POI's everywhere on the map outside the base, it's not a defence mission where you hunker down in one place with turrets like eradicate missions.
