@EA_DavidHonestly i was really let down by this game mode. It is not even remotely fun in any way. It should stayed team battle royal and ended up normal teams verse each other with add of zombies of those who have fallen on teams. No respawns just straight turned to zombie when dead. It is suppose be good holiday event and we go in solo verse same aspect i speak of but more fun logical stand to it for majority of players who want to play with friends. Keep it way it is just add 3 different teams to make it more fun. You have the ability to add / remove players from group it appears seeing the end of the match. So you can easily direct players to correct teams when dead or killed.Not many games out there at the moment can say they have a 3v3 battle royal. If any im not sure never looked. But you could be first if not!
This was kinda... falling flat on the nose. People team up in the early solo part, and lagger shadows are frustrating to deal with.
As a shadow, the mode is good, but being repeatedly obliterated, alongside 3-5 other shadows by a single Pathfinder, flying through the air, out of reach, with an EVA-8 is leaving a horrid aftertaste...
At least the Devotion skin is nice.
That got boring rather quick.
Can anyone confirm if you can get the 20 kill badge from this event?
- @IAmTheMeddler Yes you can
- So far every match is a campfest, but in a fun way. Lemme explain. As a legend, thats the only way you’ll secure victory with these odds. You get gear, camp, most likely will team up with the first person you see in beginning of game or towards the end (pre-10legends alive).
Camping as a zombie wil net you with insight to where ppl are. I’ve done both! First 2 games, top 5... I think even top 3... on my first time I did not know that ship was inbound so I activated my Beast of the Hunt only to find out I had to wait 90 mins... got taken out 3m in front of the ship XD. 3rd time I won (as legend) and afterwards won couple more times.
Camping and teaming up (either friends in same lobby or just through the famous dipping gestude) will happen throughout this mode. You just either have to find the right spot/person or don’t be such a person.
I find the mode to be very fun. Multiple wins as both Shadows as Legend. Was surprised to see actually that it was solo. Duo’s would’ve made a lot more sense imo.
Can’t tell you how... I really wanna say stupid/noobish some ppl are. I see in the distance a pathfinder waiting up top of a large building (thats still scaleable as a shadow), other shadows are there waiting for him to drop or whatever, he just ziplines in the ship and I’m like ‘really? You got him surrounded. Just climb up top. He can’t 360 degree shoot all of you at the same time’ but nooo, happend on multiple occasions that we lost due to 1 single pathfinder making it up on the ship...

I think people only did that for the 1 win on both sides. Now I just see everybody shooting anything that moves xD
