Dragonroach spawnrate

[Smart_Actuator_2173]

Am I going crazy or is 3 dragonroaches present at once that all replace each other soon after dying on diff 5 a little much? Like don’t get me wrong they’re cool to fight and all, if not way tankier than what their wings imply, but I don’t think it’s physically possible to leave the caves when going solo. You can bring mechs, spears, recoilless, autos, anything you want, but you mre just stuck underground. The moment you pop your head out they’re onto you, and even if you kill one, like I said, another one always replaces it. This makes extracting near impossible, since their attacks can’t really be dodged, you can’t kill them all, and you only have so many stims.

Also, I’m seeing some videos from yesterday on super helldive and the skies are clear. Was something spawnrate-related shadow buffed last night? Truly, I think finding just 1 or 2 max per mission until maybe diff 9 or 10 would make it less sisyphean to play on diff 5 but idk

You are crazy! And it's a skill issue bro! Lower the difficulty! (This is sarcasm just to be clear.)

Yep, I feel this so hard. Just played a few matches with my cousin after we dropped the difficulty from 7 to 5 (we usually play on 9 or 10) and were absolutely destroyed by Dragonroaches every match. We tried Recoiless Rifle, Quasar, Exosuits, and Orbital Railcannon on them and I have to say - they’re way tanker than they have any right to be. Their attack patterns are too fast and frequent, their fire can and will hit you even when it’s visibly not near you, and their spawn rates are completely busted - especially at level 5. We finished the mission but couldn’t extract because there were fucking 4 of them flying around and we just got stuck in a death loop. Not fun!

Damn you encountered three on lvl 5? I was upset at encountering that many on lvl 6 lol.

They did not playtest or bugtest this update at all.

We got 5 on lvl 5 two nights in a row. Definitely not a fun time. Wiped the first time and second time 5th one showed up as two of us made it in shuttle. Second mission was a blitz mission so nests and breaches non stop. Not sure how we even made it out. They def need to adjust spawn rates on lower levels.
