A demonstration of players attempting Terminal Containment on Insane difficulty. One of these was a premade squad from the official AFE discord(Not throwing any shade, but we had zero team cohesion, and it shows.), the rest were matchmaking with randoms.

And the Overstimulated cards came out, because randoms. So I went with it. This is just as broken with Plus Ultra. Any recharge-heavy Precision Rocket Demolisher build with a Challenge Card to make that even more obscene can break the game this way.

The thing is Precision Rockets always ignore stumble immunity that normally builds up when enemies are struck repeatedly. So you can hit them again, and again, and again and they flail around helplessly not really able to do much. It's basically a win button if you can keep enemies in front of you. (Note one of the clips is on Insane on Wave 17....)

This is not new info, there have been many posts about this garbage before. Whole playlists of people beating the game without actually shooting at all: https://www.youtube.com/user/Ultrique/videos

It's ridiculously prolific in public matchmaking, and quite often you will find people who simply don't know how to play the game without abusing this. Its really damaging to the fun of AFE, and there are a lot of complaints from a chunk of the community. (Not the ones who adore abusing easy wins and exploiting the game, of course. They love it.)

This has been reported to Cold Iron(repeatedly for months) and now resides in their bugtracker as CIBUG-35.
