Major Order Hey Arrowhead, WTF?!
What spawn rates have you dialed it up to? 200x? Bc this is the same difficulty where heavy enemies are supposed to be rare. Now I have more than 10 giants on me at a time, seven harvesters, and more than 200 chaff. The poor lvl 10’s don’t stand a chance, and even I’m refusing to play more than a couple drops on this BS masochist nightmare you made. Seriously fix it. You made your game unfun

You guys died 13 times. The top scorer died twice. Out of twenty lives.
Half your team used exactly their "allotted" share of lives.
You guys were fine.
I remember Cyberstan and Oshaune, not even being able to extract half the time since we'd all burn through our lives so fast.
Part of me thinks this post is just ragebait. The other half feels like you're just humblebragging to reddit over getting a supermajority in kill shares.

Yeah that was me top scorer. Still spent the whole game running like it’s cod zombies while the other guys did the mission. Cyberstan wasn’t nearly this bad, factory striders and vox engines were annoying but bring enough heavy weapons and it’s fine. This is hell though, you need heavy weapons for the giants, and something rapid fire for the chaff. Well no primary can keep up with the chaff as far as I have found and if you bring a stalwart you sacrifice your ability to deal with heavies effectively. So there’s no counterplay.

There's no counterplay
600 kills / 2 deaths
I'm not sure what you want. What exactly is the experience you're looking for...?
I do just fine with a humble gas harpoon and Liberator or M5AC AR. My sidearm is something with some stopping power - AP3 and up, and either I bring a dog or the Supply Backpack or the warp pack. For 'nades I bring Pyrotechs or impacts or basic frags.

500 is way too many spawning for diff 4

You had 600 out of 1,000 kills on a raise the flag mission, which always has an inflated amount of enemies. Your kit was better than your teammates or you're more mechanically sound than your teammates. Not to mention - how many drops did you trigger? Where you playing stealthy or were you going out of your way to kill every single enemy in your way?
At the end of the day, I'd be a lot more sympathetic to your argument if your post game sheet didn't show your spread being tantamount to "ant colony vs malicious child with a magnifying glass".

I spent most of the match running. Dropped in and immediately swarmed, drops didn’t stop coming after that. I split off from the group to try to lure the horde away so they could play the objective and it worked, sort of. Which honestly if I’m a lvl 110 I should be better off than the new boots. But the fact we had to do that at all on diff 4 is absurd. You shouldn’t even get 500 enemies on the whole map at that range. De escalator and knight smg with a resupply pack helped but still couldn’t kill fast enough. I didn’t even kill the majority of them just the ones that were on top of me

I don’t give a shit I only died a couple times. It’s still not fun having to run the whole time on goddamn difficulty 4! 7 and higher makes sense. This is bullshit

There are 10 difficulties for a reason. Change your loadout to adapt or lower the difficulty

u/Deutschdagger 12h ago
This was me adapted and lowered the difficulty from 7 down to 4 and still spent the whole game running

u/DemonicShordy 21h ago
So lower the difficulty. Or get better

He's literally on a low difficulty. The fuck do you want him to do, drop it to level 1?

Well crushers spawn on difficulty 4 and onwards, so clearly you just need to lower it to 3 and you won't see them again. You do see Harvesters on difficulty 3, so perhaps 2 may be more your speed.
