Free the Modifiers

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

I think @psyk was on the right trail of leaning into the absurdity/silliness more:

The current event is terrible

if they wanted a silly event bursters should do zero damage and you should have a team teleporter in case you get thrown off the map

I agree with you that martyrdom grenades sound like a decent change-up in theory, isolated or paired with something else.

Add infected moebian soldiers to hordes for all difficulties, with something like 0-25% chance to replace a normal groaner per horde. Also give them actual military weapons like knives, hatchets, shovels, etc. The makeshift pipe clubs look odd as hell.

Fatshark does not learn

I’m wondering if someone got bit by the FOMO bug and is insisting that even their in-game content needs to be FOMO I think people would be less irate if the content from these events actually stuck around, as it would mean more stuff that was actually added to the game for longer than a couple weeks.

Dry patch making me stretch.

@Frish

If all they did in a single year was implement custom lobbies with every modifier they’ve done available, I would take that over events that come and go frequently (although I have been enjoying the events and also wish they rewarded Acquila pennies).

@FatsharkQuickpaw can you confirm this? Only seen it alleged in a reddit “summary” of Mr E stream info so far:

Have we achieved a modicum of freedom for the modifiers?

[MeatShield01]

It would be pretty swell if all modifiers were available at all ‘normal’ difficulty levels instead of some being locked away in havoc. Some may need a nerf for lower difficulties, but everyone irregardless of skill level should be able to experience them.

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

@FatsharkQuickpaw I’m going to assume content creator/telephone game misinfo since I didn’t see it in the official patch notes. Can I get a comment?

Is this just a generous misinterpretation of the M21st and mutated bursters being possible spawns now?

Also, this is why there has been some helpful criticism about this info rollout method, FYI.

Bound by Duty - Free Update Out Now

just let us pick our modifiers please

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

So, has anyone seen any new modifiers in Auric or was this a hope===disappointment moment?

Or is everyone just playing the event/mortis?

[zaygr]

I did see some Mobian 21st mixed into the hordes, but it was in an event map.

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

Yeah, my current thought is this misinfo came from incorrect interpretation of:

@FatsharkQuickpaw

Mutated poxwalkers and Moebian 21ths will now have a chance to appear in normal missions as part of their respective horde types

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

@FatsharkJulia Gotta try my luck with you since you actually respond to things.

This was bad info, correct?

Hey Cheddar, Quickpaw likely hasn’t had a chance to check all his notifications yet (he’s a busy man right now!), so I’ll look in to this. To confirm, this was from somebody that had watched a Mr. E stream and summarised it in a Reddit post, is that right?

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

This is why you’re the best, Julia .

Yeah, according to this comment:

Some quick notes (not comprehensive at all) from Mr E:

[FatsharkJulia]

Thanks for the link, I’ll be back…

[FatsharkJulia]

Mystery solved, it’s this:

@FatsharkQuickpaw

Mutated poxwalkers and Moebian 21ths will now have a chance to appear in normal missions as part of their respective horde types

So you were correct above - there seems to have been a communication mix-up.

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

Thank you ma’am.

@FatsharkJulia @FatsharkKitefin

Hi guys I have returned to the game after few months break to play with a friend. We have attempted to play Havoc for 3 hours, and wasted most of it in the party finder and getting delayed due to server crashes.

I know you have zero influence on the game direction, but Fatshark is hurting their player retention with this nonsense. Give us ability to select a map, and all possible difficulty modifiers including Havoc modifiers.

[CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N]

This isn’t really a Havoc critique thread, friend. Also, since you’ve been gone, kitefin is no longer with us (in a good way, not dead way).

[JanZamoysky]

@CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N

with us (in a good way, not dead way).

My complaint isnt really Havoc specific. I just want to play the game, on a map I want with modifiers I want, with people I want. I know its hard to expect that in 2025.
