*CREDIT to VICTOR REZNOV99 for helping me test this tactic we came up with*
*CREDIT to KawiNinjaDiver7 for confirming the very first plant doesn’t count*
For 3 stars you must NOT allow more than 3 bombs to be planted. (The first plant doesn’t count towards the total! Allow them to plant up to 1-3 times).
…Now for the Reason you came here…
(You can do this part as early as you want to but you don’t have to,
* I find it best to begin moving the cars during the intro wave and finish moving them in between rounds. (Move them to block off all entry points to A site) Don’t get yourself caught moving them in the middle of an active wave! (especially the mortar and suicide bomber waves).
(Enemy vehicles aren’t accessible)
*During the earlier waves sentries aren’t really necessary……They do however come in clutch during waves 4-6*
(If you aren’t a seasoned player i recommend utilizing sentries in earlier rounds)
(Pertaining to round 4-6 *or earlier if necessary)
Utilize Sentry guns on bomb sites A, B, and C.
*You and your teammate can both have 2 Sentries (4) down at a time*
2 inside Bomb site (A) Both facing the drop in hole. 1 in the small hall, and the other in the long hallway.
1 on Bomb site (B) atop the container behind the ladder. (If you’re struggling in earlier rounds put one where i have listed, and the other anywhere you want)
1 on Bomb site (C) atop any building by C (While defending C) (I typically place mine facing the helipad or facing south of the OBJ)
You won’t really need to cover (A) manually as long as your cars are placed appropriately. The sentries and cars will cover it!
Just be sure to have (A) setup before wave 6.
Watch (B) and (C) and make sure to prevent the enemies from planting more than 3 times. (Allow atleast 1 plant)
•Stack Ammo in between rounds
•PAY ATTENTION to your RADAR
•ALWAYS REPLENISH SHIELDS
•Replace Sentries if needed
•Self revive kits are highly recommended as they help out a lot!
*On round 6/6 a juggernaut will spawn, shove a cruise missile down his jugular*
*If you have any tips you’d like to add, i’ll edit this solution and credit you*
*Lookout for TA Sessions*

It seems that you may need to have them plant a couple bombs to get three stars? I did an attempt where they planted no bombs (aside from the one in the beginning) in 19 minutes and it gave 1 star. My next attempt they planted 3 bombs (still not including the first one) and it took me 20 minutes, but the game gave me 3 stars.

I too just completed this without a single bomb plant (not even the "beginning one") and only scored 1 star, so perhaps the above commenter's theory is true.
By PSN Tropes on 29 Oct 2022 00:32
had my teammate quit at the very start. They armed that first one at A and then 3 more throughout the waves. 2 stars
By Dr Scruffleton on 29 Oct 2022 03:01
You have too complete all of them in under 16 mins too get 3 stars
By Captain Vize on 01 Nov 2022 04:06
The last mission does not need to be finished in an allotted time…. it needs to be done whilst allowing atleast 1 bomb plant no more than 3.
By iiOmens on 01 Nov 2022 04:46
If you press select to pull up the menu and then press RB it tells you exactly what needs to be done lol
By iiOmens on 01 Nov 2022 04:47
Thank you for the tweak. I found when plugging the big hole in the wall, you gotta make sure the truck is sticking out a ways, otherwise they can just plant kinda next to the opening in the debris for some reason.

WHO will be so kind to help me with this? Iam a very bad player. Sadly I need to buy a new Headset this week

By iiOmens on 02 Nov 2022 10:51
Also yea i noticed that too! But as long as you keep it under 3 plants that plant will be okay. When i have time i’m probably gonna take the time to simplify my solution. That way i can explain how it works and what to do/what not to do. I just wanted to get a method out as quick as possible. i think i covered it pretty well for the most part, but some things are kinda all over the place haha

I'm just going to say to the guys who seem to be scared to do it solo, this mission is easy. Got it first go SOLO. My team mate was bloody AFK the whole game. I just kept buying sentires. Placed one on the roof across from B and One at A facing the hole. The sentry was placed at A AT round 6 and it killed the juggernaut for me :D

Can I do these solo so I don't get stuck with a random that don't know what to do
By Kuvei on 14 Nov 2022 18:53
I don’t think they’ve added the option to do it solo. Best bet is to ask the random nicely if he or she can leave 🤣
By iiOmens on 15 Nov 2022 01:17
also to the above commenter talking about people scared to do this solo… buddy 🤣 ain’t nobody scared over here. if i had the option to do it solo i surely would’ve done it that way! I’m not gonna waste my time waiting for a random to leave lol.
By iiOmens on 15 Nov 2022 01:19
Half the randoms have half a brain cell they follow you around instead of defending their own objective and somehow when they do defend let them plant the bomb smh
By TrappersDad on 16 Nov 2022 07:42
The bomb can be planted @TrappersDad no more than 3 times though. atleast 1 bomb plant is required to obtain 3 stars.
By iiOmens on 16 Nov 2022 19:23
Definitely couldn't do this solo

By JKUHN503 on 01 Dec 2022 21:08
Idk if it’s just me but today when I tried this my sentry guns disappeared after every round. Not sure if it’s intended or not but if it is then this got way harder.
By DJ#34145 on 04 Dec 2022 15:51
your sentry guns have health bars and take significant amounts of damage through rounds. they may have just destroyed them.
By iiOmens on 07 Dec 2022 19:03
I was going to say the same. They were only lasting a round for me too, and I thought maybe a waste of money if they just last one round but they were getting destroyed. I suppose its the same thing at the end of the day though

The bomb at A during the intro does NOT count against the 3 you're allowed. During my run, all three objectives got a bomb planted during the final wave, which were then successfully defused. That made 4 bombs total including the one in the intro and we still achieved 3 stars at the end of the mission
