Treasure Borrachos

Chapter 1

Mission 1

Objective: Storm the Ship!
Super Fast -- Complete the mission in seven minutes or less to earn this GJ award.

Your goal is to land your Fastrey VS on the NEVEC Overland Battleship. It is best to approach the ship from the right. Move out to the right a bit as you approach to avoid taking damage from the wrecked Osprey and Fastreys. Don't waste any Rocket Launcher ammo on the Ospreys flying overhead; just keep moving forward.

Equip your Rocket Launcher once you can see the turret emplacement hanging above the doorway on the right side of the ship. Hit the turret with a single rocket to destroy it. Ignore the two Sentry Turrets on the back of the ship and use the RB/R1 button to ascend. Once you're hovering over the ship, press the B/Circle button to land.

The sensor tied to the two Sentry Turrets is through the doorway at the back of the ship, so be sure to destroy it right after landing.

Land your Fastrey on the back of the Overland Battleship.

Objective: Open the Hatch!
Once you've landed on the ship, you need to get inside and then activate the two control units to open the hatch.

There are four more turret emplacements along the right side of the ship; two are hanging above the walkway, and the other two are on the platforms next to the walkway. A single direct hit from a Rocket Launcher can destroy each of these turrets on the Normal difficulty level. Hit each turret with a rocket, starting with the two turrets hanging above the walkway, and then move up and activate the Data Post.

You can enter the ship through the doorway next to the Data Post 2. There might be a Bleed VS in this hallway, however. If there is one, use your Rocket Launcher or Hand Grenades to destroy it. Upon entering the hallway, turn left and gun down the two soldiers by the T-ENG chest. Then, turn back around and climb to the top of the ladder at the north end of the hall.

Open the T-ENG chest at the end of the walkway at the top of the ladder to find a Rocket Launcher. Use the Rocket Launcher to destroy the turret emplacement that's hanging in front of the hatch. There is also an enemy Granseed VS down below, as well as the Bleed VS if you didn't destroy it when you first entered the ship. Kill the Rocket Launcher-wielding soldier standing by the crates on the right, as well as the sniper in front of the hatch.

Open the hatch to take control.

Once you've destroyed the enemy VSs and killed the soldiers below, drop down and open the T-ENG chest at the west end of the ship interior to find Battle Armor. Equip the Battle Armor and then approach the control units at the south end of the area. Activate the two control units to open the hatch and complete the mission.

Objective: Fiesta Time!
Emote: All Players -- To earn this award during the area complete countdown, all four players must be performing an Emote at the same time. To perform an Emote, hold the Start button and press one of the shoulder buttons or one of the buttons on the D-Pad.

Human teammates aren't required to earn this award, however AI partners aren't always reliable. You may need to perform an Emote a few times to trigger theirs.

Storming the Overland Battleship

Mission 2

Objective: Hurry Up and Take Control!
Super Fast -- Complete the mission in seven minutes or less to earn this GJ award.

There are two control units onboard the Overland Battleship. Your task is to activate both of these control units and keep control of them for 90 seconds while waves of heavily-armed enemies try to regain control.

Open the T-ENG chest on the second-level walkway in the southeast corner of the hatch area and collect the Rocket Launcher inside. Drop back down and enter the corridor through the doorway across from the  T-ENG chest you just opened.

Destroy the sensor to the left of the stairs to disable the two Sentry Turrets at the other end of the corridor. There's a Data Post in the room through the doorway to the right of the stairs. Kill the two enemies in this room and destroy the sensor visible through the doorway at the other end of the room before activating Data Post 2.

Proceed up the stairs after activating the Data Post. Dispose of the enemies here and then head up the stairs at the north end of the room to reach Control Unit 2. Clear this room of enemies before activating the control unit. If you didn't start this level with the Battle Armor found during the last mission, equip the suit of Battle Armor by the doorway at the west end of this room before heading up the steps at the north end.

Activate the Data Post on the bottom level before heading upstairs.

The other control unit is at the south end of the ship. Climb up the ladder across from the controls in the ship's bridge to get onto the deck. Fire a rocket at the turret on the platform at the other end of the deck to destroy it. One rocket will do it on the Normal difficulty level. You can also fire a rocket through the narrow window at the other end of the deck to take out some of the enemies surrounding the second control unit.

Make your way to the south end of the deck and enter one of the corridors there. Gun down any enemies at the end of the hall and then destroy the sensor through the doorway up ahead to disable the Sentry Turrets there. Once you've made it past the sensor on your side, destroy the other sensor visible through the doorway at the other end of the room to help your teammates out.

Clear all of the enemies in this room before activating Control Unit 1. Watch out for the Rocket Launcher-wielding soldier at the top of the steps at the south end.

Objective: Stay in Control!
Total Victory -- Do not allow the enemy soldiers to deactivate either of the control units once the 90-second countdown starts to earn this GJ award. This award is extremely difficult if not impossible to earn if you're playing solo, so this is best attempted with human allies.

This is another one of those objectives made much easier with human teammates. Because the control units are at opposite ends of the ship, you'll have to rely on the oft-abysmal AI to defend one of them. Fortunately, the AI won't all follow you during this objective. If you're playing solo, you most likely have two of the AIs with you at Control Unit 1, leaving the third AI to fend for itself at the other end of the ship. If there are two AIs at the other end of the ship, stay where you are, otherwise it might be worth heading over there to support the lone AI there. This is a necessity if you have any hopes of earning the Gold GJ award for this objective.

Activate the Control Posts and stay in control!

The countdown starts and the enemies start coming as soon as both control units are online. Some enemies spawn with Battle Armor. The Shotgun works well for removing Body Armor, as does the Rocket Launcher. If you're defending Control Post 1 and are out of Rocket Launcher ammo, you can find a VS Rocket Launcher in the T-ENG chest up the steps at the south end of the ship. If you're defending Control Unit 2, look for a Shotgun on the ground next to the post.

If the enemies manage to deactivate one of the control units, the countdown will stop. If this happens, you'll need to reactivate the unit to continue the countdown. If you do lose control of one or more of the posts, take your time to clear both rooms of the enemies that spawn. If you kill all of the enemies that spawn, none will spawn when you reactivate the control units, allowing you to finish the mission without any resistance. If you're playing solo, this is probably your best bet, rather than attempting to reactivate the units in the middle of a firefight.

Stay in control of both control units for a total of 90 seconds to start the 'chapter complete' countdown.

Objective: Fiesta Time 2!
