Cannot possibly win as Legend
New game mode is absolutely terrible, Shadows damage is way overtuned and the immediately respawn. As it stands right now, impossible to win since you and the other survivors wont actually team up, ...

The "escape on the dopship 25 times in Shadowfall" challenge is really difficult. 25 wins is going to be well beyond most players' capabilities. I have 2 wins so far and it's only getting tougher.
I expect this may become easier, as more players unlock this challenge and start leaving matches when they die so they can quickly make another attempt at it. Leaving less Shadows to challenge the Legends.
There also seems to be something wrong with the calibration of the client-side hit-detection. I'm taking damage from players who I can actually see are shooting at me at the position I was at half a second ago or more. Really annoying.
I've been doing some proper raging and shouting ha ha ha.
- @warslag The client-side reg I get... I have that alot when attacking. I got the first hit on target and 80% of the time they have blue or better armor (>.>) and they miss all shots and suddenly when I’m attacking next ‘perfect aim’ even tho I see bullets fly to the sides of me.
I stopped playing the mode for the emblem. It looked cool but it’s just frustrating at this point. It would’ve been better if the ship arrived immediately when the 10 survivors were ‘counted’ or at the most 30 secs, but that f—- 90 seconds is BS! That’s what gets you killed.
‘You already survived 9 minutes at the least surviving, but lets throw 90 minutes on top of that so all Shadows can gather at the ship to look like some vibrating man-eating black fungus’ is probs what the devs have in mind...
If it counted all get-on-the-chopper type scenario movie scene dropship I’d be at 13-17... now stuck on 5... Shadow damage is too powerfull, doesn't matter if you've purple, 1-2 melee and you die when got attack from top & behind.
Even as a group, the group has to watch 360 degrees on horizontal as well 360 on vertical as well. Basically one of the group has to walk backward to protect the group from 6 oclock attack, and one watch left side and top, and one watch right side and top. So minimum 4 players to survive. It's hard to walk backward..
It's hard coordinate since the mic is not enable as group, you know....
My recommendation:
1. Reduce damage impact during the evacuation to 50 damage/meele (we can keep high during elimination part).
2. Increase duration the ship stay on the ground, currently it's too short since you've to walk from edge of the ring, and fight against shadow in between.
3. Enable the ping system during evacuation so the player and group together before moving as a group : "Let regroup here ! "
4. Enable mic during evacuation (for player only) so we can coordinate the plan to evacuate. It will be fun to hear the chaos, panic, fear, calm, and leadership come out from it.
- @asukojo I think you need to calm down with drastic changes , people who are complaining are obviously salty because they cant get the 20 kill badge, its a 3 week event

This is about your location being revealed whenever you shoot down a shadow, so an endless horde comes pouring onto you.
You either run out of ammo. Have to reload, or get overrun and die.
Impossible to win this gamemode.
You can already use your mic. At least, I can hear some players talking sometimes. Trouble is that they often don't speak English well enough to be understandable. Plus the voice comms doesn't work particularly well, anyway. So it makes team-wide voice comms a maddening, unintelligible jumble. It's like being stuck in a roomful of Daleks.
Just having problems now with hit reg? This is no surprise. It's an ongoing thing with this title. As soon as I played the first match and seen the movements it was apparent . The game can barely keep up with a standard mode.
