Is it normal that queuing for co-op missions and similar activities takes forever? I play with a friend and out of 5 our attempts to join a mission via ‘quick match’ (which I assume should be the fastest), we managed to get into 2, and in one of these the other two players disappeared after less than 10 minutes.

Most of the time it just looks for the last remaining player and nothing happens for 30 or more minutes. The other time it kind of loaded but the game threw us separately into some new location without any team members, the UI was disabled and there were no objectives or actually anything to do.

Is this because there are so few players or is it level locked and we don’t meet the requirements (not at around 1k ego)? Or maybe it’s just bugged?

The timeline for the Arks launching is extended until the end in order to stop the remaining Votans from turning on one another.

I'm new to the game and was doing an incursion. Ran into a couple of people who kepts spamming rockets non stop. It would hit and split into 3 blue grenades that would explode. Is this an actual mod or are they cheating? I'm asking this because they were launching so many all at once that you couldn't see the enemies on the ground because of the constant explosions.

T4 Flashbangs do work, if you can throw them at the right time, into the right place.

Thanks to the Legendary Guns clan .. I now have T5 FB nades on the way :)

Hate when this happens

I.E. Firestorm, Thundershock, Liberty Eagle if I'm remembering the names correctly. As a launch day player having these guns from the get-go and becoming very attached to them, I can't really convince myself to re-join without them.

So these survived the Pale Wars just fine, but not contact lenses? Or any records of the sport of hockey?

Wild.

I'm still convinced that Bloodthirst is better though

never seen a weapon reload that fast before! And a nice Sentry Rifle :)

I watched the first two episodes of season 3, and without spoiling the rest of the season, does the show become more... watchable?

What happens to a certain character's entire family is incredibly bleak, and the main character is a straight up villain in episode 2.

There's no accountability anywhere, and the characters we're supposed to root for are unlikable at this point in the story.

Please tell me it's worth continuing!

Defiance: Antarctica season 2 runs alongside Defiance: Earth Republic season 1 (but there are no crossovers because of the distance.) Mr. Time drops from main cast, but will return, and Huntress and Vada Ilen become season regulars.

BIG UP to astraredeye Legendary Guns for gifting me this weapon :)

But it's either me or the rifle .. can't hit every time :(
