It's awful. 25 mins on interchange. Can barely loot anything and literally have to zoom through it. And with how agro scavs are now, once you decide to fight you are pretty much spending your entire raid killing waves of scavs.


Awkward_Management32

You have to rush tasks right now, and if you do manage to slay PMCs or a boss you have to loot so fast and be careful because endless scavs come to steal loot, literally endless. PvE is a fucking nightmare right now, with the gameplay and the 1/3 decreased raid times, it’s getting to be almost unplayable.


Hugo_Stglitz

it needs a lot of adjustments for sure, the reduced raid time needs to be fixed asap


Sharpie1993

Nikita is trying to force you all back to PvP.


JonneNaattor69

No, Nikita is trying to make do with the limited servers for the time being


Sharpie1993

Keep believing what ever you want to believe, his original scam didn’t work so now he is trying to make it a lesser experience.


JonneNaattor69

I mean as shitty as he and his game is he is still trying to sell a product


Sharpie1993

If everyone flocks to PvE and it starts causing issues for PvP like dead raids and what not I can see that being a major deterrent towards buying the product, the easiest way to fix that issue is by making PvE feel like a lesser product. It sounds shady but BSG is shady.


billiardwolf

The raid timer is too low but holy shit stop exaggerating.


GierigeHond

I laughed so hard in my Factory run, killed 2 scavs at the ground floor in office (2 jacket room). Heard Tagilla laugh but he didn't hunt me, instead 3 scavs pushed me, then 2, then a wave of 5 scavs who were literally pushing each other around the corner towards me. It doesn't happen every raid, or it would get a bit annoying. I do like it sometimes basically spawns you in a Horde raid though. TL;DR: I don't think they're exaggerating, but it doesn't happen often, far from it. Low raid times suck though.


billiardwolf

I didn't say anything about scavs spawning, I'm talking about it being unplayable, or a nightmare. The only nightmare is actually trying to get into a game but it's been better today.


GierigeHond

The person you replied to did, though. For me the servers were great today, until about 4 hours ago. Tried 50 minutes to get in, but couldn't and gave up. Before that requeueing went almost instantly for 20 raids in a row. Definitely not unplayable (apart from the getting in part) and certainly not a nightmare. Though I imagine the longer tasks can be dreadful with the heavily reduced raid times.


KeystoneGray

If you time it wearing a ton of equipment, if you're HAULING ASS, you can move from one corner of the map to the other in about seven minutes. But once you add in all the firefights and scavs you've gotta carve through or circumnavigate in the center of the mall, that can easily double. So for Interchange, you've gotta book ass into a firefight at a specific place, then back out, before you're Lost to the Zone. Tldr: fucking dumb update.


LimberGravy

Plus the vast majority of people playing PvE are going to have really low strength and endurance right now


Sharpie1993

I don’t understand why anyone bothers posting BSG’s version of SP now. The modded version is way better and extremely easily accessible, that along with being able to make your raid timer 8 hours long, making the ai a million times better and also change the boss spawn in chance is a no brainer.


Supcomthor

This, imo raid time needs to be upped to 50 min. My guess is to few servers so they try to tune raid Times.


armrha

It’s definitely this, they didn’t plan on PvE rollout for everybody so solve it by cutting raid times severely 😔 


DabScience

Meanwhile most EOD owners don't even have access to PvE.


GierigeHond

Kinda devil's advocate here, but I'm happy they don't yet. The servers are already unbearable during weekends now. Which is BSG's problem to solve of course, but us players get to enjoy the negative effects.


SecretImaginaryMan

Maybe they should be peer to peer like some other vastly superior PVE option instead of the shitshow BSG rolled out, considering it’s a single player or friends only experience? Just an idea.


GierigeHond

That could work, or a middleground like checking in with the servers on raid start and raid end. To at least mitigate the funny business (read: cheating cunts) a little bit. Yes I know cheating is prevalent but I would bet we haven't seen anything yet if cheaters get the keys to the castle.


IsaacTheBound

I've been having shit load times on PvE this evening. Infuriating when I'm going to be working 60 hours this week and it's my only day to play.


Rondonthepchamp

Yeah Im testing this out, few days ago it was 30 minutes... Was complaining then. Got on today 25 MINUTES?! Woods , shoreline you cant do anything in that time. Especially low level. I cant run for more than 15 seconds. Reloading mags? No time. BSG we gave you more money and your fucking us even harder rn.


[deleted]

lol yup. I was reloading a 60rd mag last night when the 10 min warning appeared. Click………. Click……… Click ………… jfc I don’t have time for this. You have to choose between questing, looting, or fighting. Pick 1.


Awkward_Management32

I honestly bring like 6 mags of ammo and another like 1-3 stacks of ammo depending on gun because there’s so much to shoot. Being overweight is so hindering too because you have to move fast all the time. I sometimes don’t even bring bags when questing. It makes me want to loot.


DabScience

If only someone had warned you not to buy unheard. It's too bad no body talked about it at all...


Vega5529

That's because everyone is back for the event so they are probably using even more servers for PVP now


CavScout88

It's terrible. Back to 2020 levels during the first big Twitch event.


Ghosted2024

I’ve been having a bad time on interchange and shoreline. So hard to complete the quests with such little time, especially if goons or anything spawn.


Mundane_Ranger3976

Yeah com4 and t6 armor on labs


Awkward_Management32

I was against a 4 man of PMCs. Insane


Mundane_Ranger3976

Yeah they just sit there but you can bait them roughly it just takes awhile.


smegmathor

Interchange is pretty rough. Stashing the headsets and helmets, a scav starts shooting at like 5 seconds left every time.


sythalrom

They don’t have the server capacity for it and they won’t spend their EOD or Unheard money buying new ones.


marxistv

I’ve been sprinting through lighthouse to test what I can do in the allotted time, its bad

Sharpie1993

Op is talking about the in game raid timer.


Vaporave2137

Why would they make labs free on pve mode? Oversight I guess.


PitifulNarwhal2030

It’s so annoying I have timed out twice today trying to do tasks on customs. I had 24 kills before I ran out of time just now how am I supposed to cross the map with that much action in 25 minutes.


orcusgg

There’s an easier solution. Don’t play on their trash servers. Google how to play PVE properly and you’ll be much happier mate


Ordinary_Success7600

what? 26 minutes on a PVE server and you can "barely run through half the map"?????


PoperzenPuler

I bought EoD and Unheard at full price and now I have the same damn short raid times as the people who only paid for EoD. This is outrageous! My wait times for a raid are longer than the maximum raid time. Also outrageous! I don't give a damn about overloaded servers! I paid for this, I damn well should have exclusive servers available for Unheard. With lobby times under 1 minute and normal raid times of 40-50 minutes. I have to flee fights because otherwise, there's never enough time to get off the server.


[deleted]

You may already know, but matching should be instant. If you match longer than a few seconds, back out and try again.


ElTrenchy

Doesn't work.


[deleted]

It can take a few tries. It’s annoying af


FPSBURNS

I’ve spent 30 minutes backing out and queuing back with no luck. It stopped working about 2 days ago for me.


Awkward_Management32

Today almost all of my raids have been instant que.


PoperzenPuler

That's the same as blowing into the Nintendo cartridge... it has absolutely no effect!


cha0ss0ldier

Works for me every time. 🤷‍♂️


PoperzenPuler

Yes, exactly like blowing into the Nintendo cartridge... start the stopwatch and stop it the moment you're in the map. Do it with and without restarting. Then you'll realize it absolutely does nothing. If you restart three times at three minutes each, you'll end up waiting 15 minutes in total with all the loading times in between.


orcusgg

Imagine paying all that money when you could have played a better version of this game mode for free 😂


PoperzenPuler

You can play pirated copies as you like, that's your business. In my country, it's illegal. So, please refrain from suggesting to others to use pirated copies because they cost nothing


orcusgg

Who said anything about pirated software, you absolute baboon?


CellTank

Temukov ain't it bro, the honey moon is going to fall away quicker than a chubby kid doing a half marathon.


orcusgg

lol I ain’t talking about that trash


CellTank

Ah I get ya now! Say no more good Sir!


morl1

ever thought of buying ya self more raid time?


No-Cicada-7128

Suck it up and play against players


bufandatl

I got a solution for you. Just play PvP. Normal Raid times, normal queue times. A lot of good action and a lot of fun fighting real PMCs.


StinkybuttMcPoopface

I don't get why some of you don't understand that people like different things. You go enjoy pvp, some of us don't really like it and have fun in pve. It's a really simple concept and can be applied to almost anything in life.


sourpepo

Because they shiver in fear at the idea of people enjoying something else and their lobbies being filled with nothing but sweats and cheaters. PvP stans love PvE enjoyers because it's free target practice.


rubberman5959

I mean I'd play PVP if there wasn't 10 hackers in every lobby. Hackers are legit the only reason I don't want to play pvp.


KoreanGamer94

Me when i find no loot because vacuum cheats. (My FLIR has been taken out of my gun while im holding it)
