Milestone T2: Backfire

After the evacuation vehicle was destroyed, a new app was uploaded to your DART chip. As a result, your chip has activated a tutorial on how to use the Backfire app.

New Breach App

APP: BACKFIRE

/ AGENT OPERATIONS MANUAL

Entry: Application mechanics (Backfire)
Category: SUPPORT
Type: Chip functionality, DnDP Application firmware update
Energy: Grade 1, Low energy consumption

/ Firmware.System.Merge

DART firmware has been updated. Offensive Application Backfire has been merged with main processor and subsystems.

FUNCTIONALITY

Selection: Press the breach mode 2 button to select Backfire Application.
Selection Co-Op: Backfire will be available in an application slot when selected in your loadout.
Breach: Hold the breach app button when target has been selected to initiate breach. Continue until end of breach bar or release at breach spike area for a successful breach.
Additional: Temporarily disrupt enemy weapon.

INTEL FEED

Application DnDP link causes the target’s weapon to backfire, dealing a moderate amount of damage and knocking the enemy back. This can be used to flush a hidden enemy out of cover.

/ Extention.tac: system_collapse

For 3 seconds after being affected by Backfire, the target takes double damage. This makes it easier to perform follow-up kills after using the application.

/ Extention.tac: chip_bounce

Weapon chip systems are inferior to military asset chips. The low firewall rating Backfire can affect up to two targets. It can be further upgraded with the Cerberus Targeting module to affect a third target.

/ end of entry

Perform Application Tests

The Backfire app actually affects a target’s weapon while also causing some damage to the target. During the first part of the tests, use the breach button to activate the Backfire app.

Enter Challenge Area and Eliminate a Minimum

of Four Targets

After trying out the app, it is time to complete the challenge. Move forward to the challenge area and pick up the APP-3 pistol. You must combine the Backfire app along with firearms to defeat a number of enemies.

You have only six shots and there are six enemies. Start off by aiming at one of the two enemies on the left. Notice that the Backfire icon appears over the heads of two enemies.

Both will be effected when you activate the breach—and both will be vulnerable for a few seconds. Activate your DART overlay to increase the damage you inflict and then use the breach app.

As soon as they are affected by the Backfire app, quickly fire one shot at each enemy to kill them.

Next, target the middle two enemies and use the Backfire app again followed by two quick shots to kill these enemies. Finally, wait for your DART overlay to recharge, then kill the last two enemies using the Backfire app followed by two shots.

If you can get all six enemies, you get a perfect score. Exit the challenge area to continue to the next level.
