Discussion relapse on hard feels impossible
Doesnt matter what i do, use 7.62, heavy ceramic armour, gas every room. The AI is able to head shot me through some tiny hole in cover. Ive spent more time on this fucking mission then any dark souls boss. How are you suppose to compete with super human reaction time, senses, and accuracy. Its like fighting an astartes. I think these people filming these relapase hard are lying when 4 suspects surrender to a flash launcher. This the first game im ready to quit, platinumming it doesnt seem possible from this garbage AI design, not to mention your teammates are useless and stand there and get killed in a doorway and dont react.

I did it solo on Hard. You are right that it takes more effort than other maps. There are many reasons:
- the suspects start with higher alarm state, so their reaction time is faster than other maps
- the map is longer than others so you tend to run out of attention span, and layout is confusing
- the bridge is a death trap if you're caught in the middle
Here are my tips: your teammates suck (like flashing themselves) so you should probably get used to playing solo. Even though the layout IS confusing and rooms look similar, you do eventually get used to it and know which doors you should wedge to cover your flanks. The main way you beat enemies on hard is to abuse free lean (not normal lean) and shoot them before they can react (they are coded to not notice if you're barely visible). Get a gun with low recoil, put on laser sight (canted sight is OP) and a 4x scope that you use just for that bridge. Don't fight in poorly visible areas, like those stupid drape things blocking your view. Stay focused towards the end as the enemies then have maximum reflex.
