Make Tin Mage last Mission Entrance more logical

[DrRocket]

Greetings...

 

The last mission in Tin Mage, has you leave the conference room, to go outside (1st zoning) to go to a helicopter to wind up inside portal corp (2nd zone), which then sends you to a boat and the first gate (3rd zone), followed by a corridor and another gate (4th zone), then you go up the steps and another corridor to a final gate (5th zone) and then the final gate to the city (6th zone).

 

One issue I have, is why so many zonings? Why not go from Portal Corps to the city and do away with the stupid zonings?

Second issue, why zone out of the vanguard base to get in a helicopter, that somehow leaves you in portal corps, this is plainly dumb and illogical; even worse there are teleport gates inside vanguard, why not use the one there just outside the mission (as it was) and then teleports you directly to the city (and avoid all the dumb corridor zonings)

 

What you all think? did I phrase this right, or is the suggestion a bad one> please explain the why, so I can learn from this.

The only zoning you do is into the mission, the rest are akin to elevators.

Good point! But then again why so many pointless floor changes?

Why so many elevators in missions? There are some maps that you take an elevator to get to a floor with 3 elevators, I think 1 of which also has an elevator. Or why make a mission that spans multiple areas at once when you can instead make them each their own mission with separate, larger maps, with their own tasks assigned to them, dragging out the TF more than it needs to be?

 

(Edit: It's been a while since I did it, but I think it is the Synapse TF that does this. Has way more missions than it needs or should have, with at least 3 of them all being the same mission just with a different boss name at the end. Makes the TF rather unpleasant.)

The mission text indicates that you get on a helicopter to take you to Portal Corp. The portal then takes you to Praetoria. Since the Vanguard base now has its own Portal Corp portal, there is no reason to get on the helicopter. The mission entrance should be from the portal in the Vanguard base.

Change the text, Vanguard has a portal, which takes you the mission, without all the idiotic stuff
