Fight or Fright - Shadows TOO STRONG

This new mode definitely piques the interest and ive been playing a lot despite the incredibly painful gameplay experience.

1. These shadows are far too strong; if you kill several players at drop or along the way they will follow you the entire time since they can drop on you and see you from afar. 6 or 7 shadows on you is u manageable by most especially since there one hit without rare drop armor. Can we have a resplendent delay? Even just a few seconds?

2. Shadow Speed - Octane is practically useless as the fasted legend in the game because they are SO fast - I understand melee based enemies need speed buffs but theirs a reason everyone’s running pathfinder, because when you get rushed from multiple angles ( and you will) the only possible escape is to use your zip to give you an extra 5 seconds of reaction time

3. Ring Speed - The game lately (day 2) has been dragging on pre drop ship due to corner droppers and campers, making the team experience almost non existent once the final 10 are established 

4. Dropship Timing - Once the final 10 are established the drop ship spawns in just over 100 seconds ( best guess) giving you enough time to make it their from various points on the map, but once the drop ships available theirs a swarm of shadows continuously spawning and guarding the area. The only survival I’ve witnessed is slipping in from the outside while all the shadows have explored all my chambers with their fists. It’s possible we could utilize a 6-8 second safe zone that randomly spawns 30-75 meters from the ship that damages shadows. 

5. Loot Spawn - we need AMMO for 16 kill games where there’s absolutely no time to loot post drop

Some of these may be comparable to experiences with poor players rather than flawed game structure but I believe they are valid. I hope you agree

  • Imo if 80% of the shadows rage quit they need to be op to balance sometimes in a way the shadows damage needs to be based on how many shadows are in the game theres supposed to be 25 shadows and 10 legends but its usually 10 legends and 10 shadows or less so its hard to win as shadow some games i just think it needs a leave penalty taking away dropship aspect even fewer shadows willl stay in the game
