The parts retrieval missions for Rising Tide are terrible,

They are tedious and frustrating, and make Cy completely unlikable, having him complain about the perimeter being breached is almost as bad as Lotus chiding us for failing a bounty due to a cache being spawned inside the terrain, spawn the enemies in waves so that we can clear them more readily, and have Cy shut up, you don't want players to hate an allied NPC, because they come off like an unreasonable jerk due to bad mission design,

early on in the quest, cy is a jerk. that's his personality. heck even in RJ missions he can be somewhat rude. cephalons have personality after all.

OK but there is a difference between being a snarky or strict person who is unpleasant, and being an annoying jerk because of bad mission design, if he always reacted with dissatisfaction after the mission then it would be less annoying than him constaly whining because of the badly made mission making it all but impossible to avoid perminiter breaches,

It's the difference between Lotus chastising us for not fleeing the Grustag 3, and her calling us a failure do to a bug making the mission unwinnable,
