Please fix WZFF.
Some very small strides were made with the Hotfix. Like Hunter Particulars round 3 to 4. A step in the right direction. But it is still a ####'d up round. Having Pipap immediately follow that is 9/10 times impossible. If I’m foolish enough spawn a Hannibal Scorpion in a PvE mode, AND PLAY BACK, SMART, AND SAFE, I should have a good chance at success. Also, 4 shots from a banshee’s repeater cannon SHOULD NOT DROP YOU.
Urban is not set up to accommodate hordes of enemies. Its too open. You need to take that into consideration when you choose enemy spawns and design rounds. Don’t just copy and paste from other rounds, or throw the same amount of enemies as you do in other maps on parallel rounds. It doesn’t work. Defend the Core Round 3 is a prime example of that. So is Knights/Wardens Round 5.
This is a casual mode, not a competitive mode. I shouldn’t need to stack an 8 person party to have a good time. I should be able to kick back, call in the best REQs, play well, and have a good time. I waste so many REQs in firefight due to lazy, fake difficulty that was put in to address WZFF being too easy during the Beta. I get it, you needed to make it more difficult. But its still a PvE mode, and a solid player who has every REQ unlocked and plenty of them should not be having this much frustration with a PvE game type. I can’t even imagine how frustrating the game type is for a new player, who barely has 1 Scorpion in their REQ inventory.
I don’t care how bad a match goes in Arena or Warzone. I rarely feel like the game is treating me unfairly. But in WZFF, I get the sense of unfairness all the time.
I understand the reality that this is just a video game. Its frustrating, but really, why should I even bother posting on waypoint forums with this? I wouldn’t play WZFF a second longer if it wasn’t for the WZFF Victories commendation. Maybe I should just be frustrated that the commendation exists.
You don’t have to listen to me. I know you have access to the data, and I know you can see what the overall community experiences. You know what should be adjusted. The Hotfix is exactly what you called it. A Hotfix. We need a real fix, and I really hope one is coming on September 8th.
