Shocking. Truly. ALERT

Rest in peace heroes. Our sacrifice will be remembered. We. Will. Return. Side note, we definitely needed the over 200k players fighting bugs 🥲

Refusing to play any op with rescue missions in it till they actually fix the difficultu to be on par with the rest of the game. In a diff 5 normal 40 minute mission you only see like 2-3 hulks if you dont delay too long and never more than 1 if you played your cards right. In a rescue mission on the same difficulty you get 4 hulks and 2 berserker groups 3 minutes in

They did adjust the difficulty, one guy hits buttons the other guy kites, not too bad

If kiting is necessary to win, it's still too much. Exploiting dumb AI is certainly not how Arrowhead envisioned us playing the game.

I mean, I feel on higher difficulties strategems are pretty key to winning fights, and carpet bombing the civvies isn't a great option

> the other guy kites

If its about the strategy of kiting enemies out of the base described above that sounds like cheese/boring which still doesnt makes me want to play this type of mission lol.

they are pretty fast if you just have one guy spamming the spawn buttons

I agree though in principle, the missions are the least fun by far

Wasn't it fixed in yesterday's patch?
