if the vast majority of players if not all dont like it, why is it still in the game?
I’m willing to bet the Dev’s don’t read the forums as much as the actual reviews. Is my best theory of it, besides a lack of good judgment. I mean, they’ve repeated the same modifiers multiple times with nothing new lately & that some are still bugged, not to mention. I’m pretty sure just all-in-all, it boils down to laziness & just wanting money, plus probably not giving a fk as well if we’re being honest. They cannot be bothered to come up with new stuff Havoc-wise, while simultaneously racking in that cash cow from the DLC’s. Their job is done after collecting the money, they can wash their hands of everything else.
I wonder why?
Oh, right…
I thought that was the point of havoc, it is your quarantine mode where the game is supposed to suck for the sake of satisfying your ego. Dropping hurdles in your path that ignore skill and player ability is structural to such difficulty spikes. Its been central to any video game difficulty spike, since despite coping 99% of all games achieve it by nerfing you and increasing jank. All lazy, but at the end of the day the people who want this sort of gameplay get what they deserve. Various forms of suck that siphon any remaining enjoyment you may have.
whoever is in charge of havoc has lost the fun plot
I really hate the perception of Havoc needing to be the “ball crushing facility” where good players go to partake of having their balls crushed. It undermines how poorly designed Havoc is. There are plenty of hard games with difficulty modifiers that still manage to be fun and consistent with minimal bugs.
Blight’s pretty fun, shame that there’s class mechanics that turn it off entirely. I think the biggest issue is that each individual puddle seems to add its own corruption pool. If they fixed that, and decreased the amount of corruption per tick and tick rate it’d probably still be okay.
and this is why i’m not playing havoc until it’s fun to
Some of us just play for fun! It’s also fun meeting new good teammates since that’s rare. I also play for the more teamwork requirements as in lower difficulties you do whatever tf you want. You usually get more serious gamers as well and like minded people. Clutching gets my heart pounding, I love ittt so addicting.
They could just let us fight the enemies instead of the floor. It worked for modded VT2.
They’ve brought this upon themselves with the “head in the sand” attitude, non-existing QA, slow updates and gathering feedback from the “playtester” echo chamber. Casual reminder it took them whole season to fix blue stimmed enemies, when any normal company would just hotfix this in a couple of days (provided if such bug even goes live past QA).
There is literally no reason not to speak about Fatshark in any other way “positive” way.
God complex.
I love modifiers that punish me for killing enemies and force me to use corruption cleansing and block my ability to progress because I need to either be under the influence of a Stimm supply or wait 2 business days for the blight to disappear.
There are also games with a lot more variation in gameplay, which this one doesn’t choose to do. So after tuning spawns to max, they have little wiggle left besides dumping horrendous enemy traits in. I’ve never been a fan of this or Weaves because they don’t change a lick about the gameplay. And weaves at least had a couple of fun magics, you literally get no player buffs in Havoc. It is designed to not be interesting or fun.
I defenitely like Rotten + Blight a lot more than Rotten + Pink
I think blight is overhated (it is annoying but not game ending)
If I had to change blight It’d probably be something like puddles dealing 30% of the corruption they deal right now, but infected enemies melee attacks deal 100% of their damage as corruption
I hate blight spreads.
Good thing we’re talking about a video game here. In any other context this would totally be unacceptable abusive behavior.
To promote hive scum….because he has the stim pack thingy that cleanses corruption and makes you immune to it….right……right?
Nope. Zealot, switch over to cleanse aura. Scum, stay on Desperado and keep shooting so we can actually keep moving.
do u know what that means, god complex?
the vast majority of this post dont like blight spreads.
ur teammates, in ur havoc games that aren’t on this forum, ALSO dont like blight spreads
who actually plays havoc and ran into someone outside this post saying, “oh boi, this goob sure is a fun one“
Very little incentive for havoc related changes or fixes because of how few people bother with it.
