Garden ops Wave 8 bug
Wave 8, frosty snow level as Zombies. Wave would be stuck at one enemy remaining and it would never spawn/finish. Dying and using a team restart just repeated the problem again. Had to quit.
Wave 8 is still bugged even in this version. I just came across the spawn bug again. I took a screenshot.
Surprisingly this time the team committed suicide and it fixed the bug with a team retry.
And i just had it again. In Ops in Wave 8. Again after a Checkpoint Race.
After the entire team went for suicide it fixed itself.
I've been seeing more reports of this bug lately. It hasn't happened to me for quite some time, What you did was the only known fix. I recently found an old post on reddit where an ex-EA employee sheepishly took credit for the bug. It's got something to do with the code that counts the enemies.
This thread is becoming a classic.
I had it happen again a month or two ago. It's so annoying, particularly if you've got an enchanted base, have spawned lots of high value consumables, or are working on a specific star quest. I won't think about how mad I'd be if I got through 8 waves of craaazy ops solo and this happened.
