Deep Dive: Difference between revisions

Since Operation Deep Dive is one of the major events, clearing all levels will be challenging for most commanders. Compared to last major event ([[Arctic Warfare]]), the first two chapters are easier, while the third chapter is much more difficult.  Therefore, only the first two chapters rewards T-dolls so that new players can also get the most out of the event. New players should try their best to clear E2-4. Those who wants to clear the third chapter must be fully prepared. All types of enemy units are presented in the third chapter. Make sure your echelons can handle all situations.

Two new game modes are introduced in this event -- rescuing hostages and supply line.

These two new mechanics improve gameplay greatly, (Would be more interesting if hostage casualties are ranked. XD) and, in turn, the complexity of each map is increased greatly. However, it provides new way for clearing specific maps. If one is lucky,  he/she won't have to confront BOSS to achieve victory. Might be good or bad news for different types of players.
