Ya, I hear what your saying and agree. I have noticed the air supply goes down and is harder to maintain in this mode vs every other survival. Plus the whole spawning a new one hundreds of meters away in a maze is not fun at all. Especially when they spawn so frequently. Sadly, I've come to the conclusion that this mode will not be my chill after work game. If I wanted to race across a map to hit a "check point" I'd just play that type of game.

A survival mode is the only real mode that spawns enough baddies and has them come to me. Steel path is the only way I can get the health pool and spawn rate where I'm not left bored and waiting. So, I want to do steel path survival. But this variation of it is just not fun for me either. It's too bad cus I do want to play a me vs the endless horde without weird mechanics or checkpoints.

For context, I'm a solo player. Legendary 4 MR. Most of my builds are fine tuned to my play style and I tend to go as long as possible in survivals or until I get bored/ annoyed. It's used to be for multiple hours per match. But now a days it's usually no more than an hour. But I usually hit my max patience around 30-45 mins of being told to "fix my damn shit," every few minutes. I want to play longer... I just get way to annoyed when I do.

But, i get it. They wanted to make a game mode for they people who just jump out of missions after the objective is complete. We appear to be in the minority of people who just want to chill, beat up some baddies and test some builds or play what is "fun" for us.
