I won't be participating in Havoc until progression is fixed

[Littlegator]

I’m not trying to be toxic or inflammatory here, and I’m not really even trying to have a discussion about this. I’m just giving my feedback that I think a lot of people will agree with.

Delaying Havoc progression by a week for everyone but the “host” is needlessly complicated, messes with access and group dynamics, and ultimately just makes the mode feel far less rewarding in the moment. It also means there’s going to be a constant fight over who is allowed to “host” the match, especially in public lobbies rather than ones with close friends (i.e. the vast majority of lobbies in this game).

Also, having levels 1-20 being painfully easy is just not fun. I think you are overestimating the significance of the modifiers. A Heresy missions with modifiers is still ultimately a Heresy mission. Either all ranks 1-30 should be Damnation at base, or completing an Auric Maelstrom should jump you to rank 20 immediately so you can skip the low difficulty missions.

I’m just going to hold off on interacting with the mode until progression is fixed. A lot of other people have expressed similar sentiments. I really think this should be fixed before the holiday break, or the mode is going to flounder for several months.

Havoc is bad. Enough said.

And they had a lot of things they could implement and that are waited:

• the solo game mode that is close to be released since…november 2022
• in party finder a way to choose the mission and the modifier (if you play with a group, I don’t see what is the problem to allow players to choose that).

Instead of these game modes that are awaited… they released something unwanted, as usual.
And worse, this sounds like half done. This is simply astonishing to see that they often release things that are not ready at all.
