Ya i am lucky to have a room mate play with me but on the harder difficulty it can be almost impossible but i do not really see an easy fix for this issue sadly so i feel like gearbox will leave it be.
Do platinum scores even exist now? I havenāt gotten a single one since the Open Beta, and I got TONS of them there (some very good teams).
The icon was like, a silver circle outline with a spiky pink crystal inside it - thatās what you mean by āplatinumā, right? It was higher than gold, and Iām really unsure that they didnāt just remove it⦠:L
While I did all the missions solo without an issue - no failures even once I mean - I must admit the very last boss was particularly frustrating. Good thing I had something like 12 lives. But god, was it stupid getting bumped all day long into the killing void.
However I just canāt for the life of me get a silver rating in Renegade normal solo. I tried with a bunch of different characters I had started leveling - I did most of the stories with Phoebe and it was fast and deadly. I have no idea how to get a better score alone since we donāt seem to have a breakdown of the final score. A rating of time, kills, damage taken, objectives, anything really, would help to know where improvement is needed.
And it would seem we have to do silver on each mission on NORMAL to get Kleese ( or get command rank 36 ). I got silver on advanced on Renegade, no luck. It clearly didnāt count. 
Itās funny, actually, since I made another thread about how unbelievably irritating itās been to play the same damn map every time I try and play campaign⦠itās ALWAYS RENEGADE! Iāve not been able to experience a single other Story Map in public matches. ALWAYS FREAKING RENEGADE.
Such baffling selection / randomization for the Story / Public stuffā¦
Mine was The Voidās Edge, I had everything else done but nobody would EVER choose Voidās Edge because it doesnāt unlock a character and we all played it in beta. So Iād see it there and watch as only I voted for it while everyone else goes Saboteur.
Iām glad to be done with it, I had at least silver if not gold in all missions except Heliophage, Iām sure Iāll get it in a couple more tries though.
My only complain is that itās impossible to get Gold or Platinum score solo.
I havenāt seen a platinum score, but Iāve gotten golds solo. The biggest thing is to loot anything and everything and make sure you watch for the multiple releases of bonus points on each boss-creature. Do that and gold is simple.
This game is not fun. Some are near impossible solo to complete especially on advanced.
Wait to you get to mission 8 solo on advanced. You have to clear the map in like 25 minutes and I give it my all and usually have 60 seconds to spare now after failing my first 5 attempts. The you fight the end boss and tons of mini bosses. I never beat it on advanced. I fight the bosses for a hr and its buggy and lots of mobs come and when they touch me i fly off the map. Eventually it takes all my lives.
Got platinum in beta, itās possible 
In beta they made it easier I think, cause I got a platinum the second time playing Voidās Edge. Now I havenāt seen one no matter how much we wreck on a mission, collecting everything, etc.
That last section of Heliophage is a real ***** though. Rendain throws me off the map, then if I donāt get revived and respawn you end up surrounded by like twenty big thralls with guns and shields. I see people respawn, jump down and instantly die several times. Are you supposed to go around and clear all the minions before fighting him or do they respawn forever?
Who really knows, between the ridiculous waves, revisiting objectives that donāt recover health, and all the bugs. I donāt think anyone knows how the game is supposed to play. Somehow I feel that no one at GBX made sure the game was beatable before release.
Yep, how you do that mission with a melee character Iāll never know. I did it with Oscar Mike and had no problem. It took an hour but I got it done.
I pre-ordered cause I loved the PvE beta missions. Little did I know that all the other missions were crap. The 2 beta missions Iāve played a dozen times each, but all the others I just played once.

Random crazy suggestion: Make Isic immune to all ranged damage/give him a reflect shield, but reduce the HP threshold such that it takes only 2-6 punches to finish him off. (number of punches depends on number of players)
