The final level is a boss fight, with the assisting troops not posing much of a threat at this point. The boss is a submersible drill tank, larger than any other land vehicle by far. This enemy effectively teleports around the map at random and has almost as many guns as you have squadmates. In theory you are supposed to climb on top of it by building ladders on it (huh?) and shooting the radiators with anti-tank lances. The problem is that the hitboxes remain bugged months after release, and sometimes it will just completely ignore a direct critical hit from a lance. At other times, the radiators will all retract (something which is explicitly impossible in-story), preventing you from hitting them. Further still, it will sometimes get bugged into that state forever, making the battle unwinnable. The only redeeming feature is that the whole sequence is So Bad, It's Good, with a derpy invincible teleporting drill submarine tank which is defeated by ladders. This was widely panned by players and the revelation that the best ending was held hostage by a ''second'' instance of this fight was less than kindly regarded.
