Locking enemy types behind specific game modes now? Just when I thought your decision making couldn’t get any more stupid, you go and put this “The Pack Master and his hounds will initially spawn exclusively in the new game mode Expeditions.” Bruh. So you’re telling me now we are going to be crea…

Darktide players trying not to outrage farm, challenge: impossible.

To be fair . . . FS has a long history of making the most baffling, ill-conceived decisions I’ve ever seen - and then sticking to them far past the point anyone would expect - in a company that claims to want to exist and make profit.

Armored hounds are spawning in Auric atm, they’re like 1/6 chance of replacing a dog. I do want to fight the Packmaster more, he seems almost as rare as a wandering Spawn right now.

If they future-proofed their code well enough (yeah, yeah, I know), they can just add the packmaster to the boss spawn table. Though if they want to re-invent the wheel or their current boss selection and spawn code is spaghetti, well, I hope they learn something from it.

To be fair, it started already with modifiers being exclusively available for Havoc.

Kind of funny to think that if you went back to 2 years ago, quickplay standard missions had the exact same amount of modifiers and only like 2 missions less, one of which is a short mission that barely ever shows up. So you’d likely not even notice you went back 2 years, other than no arbites and h…

And every week we had posts about people who were against different modes, Hunting Ground, Light Out… And even for the non-general modes where they complained that they couldn’t quickplay and avoid them…

i think most people would not be against different modes if they could select what to play, or opt out of certain modifiers. as it is, we have 1 maelstrom mission, it’s dark, you don’t like that. so you quickplay, replace a bot on its last bit of health in a hound game.
