      I finally understand how the bugs get between planets after being yeeted into orbit by a stalker tongue.

      From difficulty 0-5: haha hunters shooo shoo
      Difficulty 5-7: oh fuck, gotta kill these hunters
      Difficulty 8 and 9: hunters… How many reinforcements do we have?

        This is the is the fucking reason I main stalwert on suicide difficulty. The difference between not having an LMG and having an LMG prioritizing hunters is night and day.

        Stalwert on 700 rpm, at least on autocannon, and at least two expendable antitanks is how my crew rolls on terminid missions.

          I use the Rover backpack and Incendiary Breaker. Even then, it’s still easy to get swarmed. Might have to give the LMG a shot.

    I’d rather go back to fighting 6 titans and 8 chargers than continue dealing with swarms of 20+ hunters around every corner.

    Had a mission a few nights ago where we were all out of ammo and just sprinting towards extract and behind us was 1 titan 2 chargers and every bit of 100 hunters and scavs… it literally looked like an anthill coming down the mountain behind us. We only made it out by judicious application of air superiority, artillery, sentry turrets, and finally getting a resupply as we got to the extract

        Sure, but the opposite is the worst feeling ever and it occurs 90% of the time. Being dropped into 5 different patrols, or being unable to do anything on an exterminate mission cause you died once is ridiculous. They need to tune the hordes to contain sensible amounts of certain enemies. They also need to get rid of / fix the one hit KOs in the game.
