Vivisection is easily the hardest map I've done single segment so far, but its also my favorite map I've done so far. When I think of No Rest for the Living, this is the first map that comes to mind. Everything about it is brutal. The tight corridors with windows everywhere make sure you're never safe and always being fired at. The first half of the map is the hardest, getting to the SSG requires heavy luck in infighting and very careful dodging. Once you have the SSG, the map becomes much more manageable as the mega armor and rocket launcher secrets are easily accessible. The difficulty of this map scales with how fast you plan to do it, which is determined by how many fights you decide to skip direct confrontation on and instead rely on later infighting for. You can get through most of the map very quickly without killing much yourself, but it gets crowded and impossible to navigate. I chose to do a bit of a middle route. I could've definitely done it faster but that would also require me to change the route in a way that makes it much harder for me. Anyways, this map feels like it wants to kill you hatefully. It took me 116 attempts. Unbearable Torture is the perfect track for this map, it is incredible, and has been stuck in my head for almost a week now.
