Exterminate

[Kialandi]

It happens all the time in invasions.

 

You get to the extraction point and you are still missing ~10 enemies, who didn't spawn yet. Then you have to wait X amount of time waiting for those enemies to spawn.

First 5 enemies will spawn, then you wait, another 3 enemies spawn, then you wait some more, 1 enemie spawns, you wait again, finally the last enemie spawns and you can go to extraction.

 

Someone told me, that it could not be fixed.

 

But it's really annoying, so if there is a way to fix it - please do.

This is a consequence of the developers nerfing exterminate spawns after the release of the Focus system. It has made the exterminate game mode a hassle.

Welcome to Warframe's ultimate meta game.

Dev vs. community meta whack-a-mole.

 

1) Devs come up with new feature

2) Community uses most effective method they can devise to take advantage of it.

3) Devs nerf the crap out of that method.

4) Law of unintended consequences takes over.

5) goto 2

 

7) profit?

This has actually happened to me before the changes really. So it's been there.

This used to happen all the time right after the release of the conflict sites. (Gradivus anybody?)

It wasn't a problem in exterminate until they started futzing around with the spawn mechanics.

What happened before was an enemy spawning behind you.

 

What happens now is no enemies spawning at all in the level, sometimes for up to minutes at a time.

I don't mind running back and forth 100 times, as long as the last enemy won't spawn in inaccessible area third exterminate in a row, forcing me to abort the mission after killing ~250 enemies and do it again.
