horrible is one word that springs to mind and not in a halloween fun kinda way
was neat when it first came out, now just plain boring.......maps full of lifeline/wraith/octane, known very limited ship locations, super easy wins for legends.......got stale VERY quickly....
The more I play this mode the more I dislike it. Playing as a shadow is not fun, but as a legend the shadows feel way too strong. One hit and you're dead gets old really quick.
- @IAmTheMeddler i saw the opposite, shadow is fun.
the shadow damage is ok because some people have aim, the only thing i want in this mode is this:
if you reach the last 10 legends and someone escape is a team win and that means count for the mission.- @ElBirri My thoughts exactly. Why the hell make it feel like a team win when in reality the game doesn't count it like that? Really * backwards if you ask me. Should definitely count if someone makes it, that's how it goes for other games that have a mode like this.
I also hate how shadows can hit you almost immediately after landing. It makes them way too strong, especially when you 2 land on at the same time. When that happens it is nearly impossible to win that fight. I think if they added an additional second of vulnerability once they landed it would make everything else feel balanced.
The lack of noise from shadows has got to be the worst thing about this mode. Next would be the abundance of white armors which are completely useless along with heals usually. Many legends are useless in this mode as well
@DrenMadrealso pathfinder. I don't think it is easy to win as a legend at all though. It's hard to really group up and fight your way to the evac together. I only saw a group larger than 4 one time.
@jayhartRIC One doesn't know how things are this weekend with Shadowfall. Went with the option to grind it out on the weekday to avoid potential mayhem for upcoming days. But at one time me and 8 others made it on the evac ship. The last legend almost did, but was cut short.
I just managed to get my first win as a legend, which was a relief after failing at it for quite a few rounds. I was down to a quarter of my health after barely making it out of an encounter with another legend during the first seconds of the match, and then never healed or picked up a single thing until finally ziplining to safety.
Was it satisfying? Yes and no. Don't think I'll be playing the mode much anymore now. It's quite atmospheric, but also more repetitive and frustrating for me.
