The new raid “Operation Steel Horse” presents a challenge for some players of The Division 2. However, speedrunners show that the raid can be completed in about 30 minutes. Is this all above board?
What does the new raid offer? “Operation Steel Horse” revolves around the faction of the True Sons. They have taken over a foundry near Washington D.C. where they are now expanding their arsenal with new weapons. The Division aims to prevent the True Sons from launching an attack and plans a raid to thwart the faction’s plans.
How quickly can the raid be completed? Players have primarily struggled against the second and third boss enemies, which is why not everyone has managed to master the new content. However, a speedrun has surfaced in which the group SOLIDFPS – who also received the World-First title for the raid – completes the content in just under 36 minutes. It is certainly doable. However, the group is facing criticism for it.
Was there cheating involved?
What is being criticized? For some time now, there have been cheating allegations against Division players because a leaked document, allegedly from the developers, has surfaced. It contains many details and tips about the raid. The mechanics of the bosses are also described in detail.
With this document, it is naturally easier to complete the raid. This has already led to severe criticism of the World-First races, where groups are trying to be the first to complete the raid.
Now this criticism has also arisen regarding the speedrun. SOLIDFPS knows exactly what to do in the video. The entire raid seems to come easily to the group. This could be due to the fact that it is a well-coordinated team that has already played the raid multiple times.
However, since the mentioned document is circulating, some fear that SOLIDFPS used it to complete the raid in just under 36 minutes.
What do players think about the speedrun? In the comments of the video, viewers keep addressing this topic:
- Al S expresses his anger: “They had the documents before the World First. Marcostyle’s team now has a clean slate because they didn’t win.”
- Brett writes: “Just a question, but did you use the leaked document? I think I will have to, or I’ll never complete the raid.”
- Najiyb Gibbons disagrees: “Some of the comments here are really toxic. Just because a streamer/ex-pro is talented doesn’t mean they cheat.”
How does SOLIDFPS respond to this? The team has not commented on the allegations and does not address the topic at all.
