Found a Scab Radio Operator in Hab Dreyko in a Tainted Airwaves modified mission. Was very odd - didn’t seem to have any voicelines or effects, and looked similar to a regular Scab Gunner.
From what I know, Radio Operators were datamined to be in the game files, but not yet implemented into the game.
Steps to Reproduce (Required):
Unknown. May have something to do with modifier? Or exceedingly rare glitch? I thought these enemies weren’t in the game yet.
My reasoning for this being a bug is that he basically didn’t do anything and looked like a hastily-reskinned Gunner with antennae, nor were there voicelines for tagging or killing. There was no official announcement from Fatshark about this enemy, either.
They are in game… I have met them. They are linked to the hacking of comm device
Here an example
But, from what I see is that I have met them only in solo. Cause I took my time. So I made a pause.
Every game I have done with a team, I had to hack the device in middle of event cause the guys never wanted to pause 1 second. The only time someone has stopped the time I hack, 2 other players that could not stop to push, died like 5hit. No scab operator has appeared and I suspect that the fact I was hacking in middle of hordes spawn has forbidden the mini event to start.
However, I have also got the scab operator not appearing in a regular damnation game (solo also) and I took the time.
But from what I saw, the scab operator comes when you hack the comm device. When you hack, the game don’t spawn enemies, once you hacked it, the mini event starts.
If the guys don’t see it, it is cause they rush…
But there’s may a problem with the spawn
In solo I always get it… but I had not get it when playing with players…
maybe because I have not hacked the device where I have found it… (cause the guys were rushing…as always)
That would make sense. I only ever saw him when hanging back because I kept hearing the sound. I initially thought it was a comms device we had passed by.
But , you’re right, in your own vision of the game. You just want to complete the mission…
I have a different vision. I don’t like running running running all the entire mission. I won’t say that you’re wrong… I just say that I have a different vision. i respect yours… and you may be the majority.
And that’s why I use actually many more try to play in solo.
