·Multi-source verified (90/90)

The Launch Site is a high-tier monument with high radiation and numerous heavily armed scientists. It requires a Red Card for full access and is often patrolled by the Bradley APC.

Loot:

  • High-tier crates (military, elite, APC crates) with best weapons, components, and explosives.
  • Red Card spawn.
  • Recycler, Research Table.

Strategy:

  1. Full Hazmat Suit is mandatory.
  2. Bradley APC: This tank patrols the area. It's extremely dangerous. You can either avoid it, or attempt to destroy it with rockets (requires many) for its valuable loot.
  3. Clear scientists cautiously. They are accurate and deal high damage.
  4. The Red Card puzzle is complex, involving multiple fuse boxes and timed doors.
  5. Expect heavy PvP. This is a prime target for well-geared players.

Launch Site offers the best static loot in the game, but it comes with extreme risks. Only attempt it when fully geared and preferably with a team.
