I just want to play the new mission.
why isn’t it account wide
It’s interesting to see them adding new lore, but I do think some mistakes have been made.
Firstly, why those missions? IIRC Chasm Logistratum, Smelter Complex and Power Matrix aren’t on any of the existing campaigns, and those could have been used rather than reusing other ones. (And I mean, Chasm Logistratum is another mission about securing cargo from a train, it’s such an easy swap for Consignment Yard that it could probably use the exact same dialogue).
Secondly, forcing people to clear the campaign to unlock the new mission for each of their characters just means lots of people are speedrunning the missions; it’s really frustrating, and it’s certainly contributed to some of the failed runs I’ve been on.
Thirdly, because the new mission is what people want to play, and is quite difficult, people haven’t learned it yet and there’s some re-learning to do on characters, so there’s a lot of failures. And that means the player base is stacked in the Spillway mission and the lobbies for the first two missions are often quite empty, because no-one really cares about doing redoing missions that have been in the game since the start.
It would be one thing if getting through the missions unlocked it for all your characters, but this approach is just causing problems.
THAT’S the real dig. I can live with having to unlock it. But unlocking it SIX FECKING TIMES?
Obnoxious.
