In this mission you drive the EDF Scout, a reconnaissance vehicle equipped with a Gauss turret. The turret can rotate a full 360 degrees, so the vehicle doesn’t have to be facing a target to hit it.
The goal of this mission is to take out sixteen mines as quickly as you can. You can take out the first three mines without even moving the vehicle. From the start position simply fire in the direction of the mines to destroy them.
You can’t hit every target from the starting point, so be ready to move out. Take care not to get too close to the mines you’re targeting—when they explode they can damage or destroy your vehicle.
Only move the EDF Scout close enough to get a clear shot. The surrounding yellow crates and barrels are explosive, too. Sometimes targeting these explosive objects is enough to trigger a mine, ideal when you can’t get line-of-sight on a mine from your location.
However, be careful not to run into these yellow objects or shoot them when you’re too close. They too can damage your vehicle.
If you need repairs, there’s a Repair pick-up that appears in the bottom left corner of the map. But any damage you take on this mission is your own fault and retrieving the pick-up can cost time.
