Is every mission just barricaded suspects?

[Chop]

I bought it at 1.0 launch so don't know what it was like before. Been playing through commander mode and every single mission has been barricaded suspects. I swear elephant was an active shooter in multiplayer a few days ago but now it's just showing as barricaded suspects?

Good question

I think most missions are considered barricaded suspects we'd see before 1.0. However.. The Elephant is a special mission.

Elephant has two core threats. It has the bombs you'd see in bomb mode, and the active shooter you'd see from active shooter, but with limits. To avoid some of the complaints users had about active shooter being too RNG based and unfair, they have a timer. Though I've seen some users say it is a timer and proximity based.

You have I believe two minutes to find the shooters and neutralize them, or they will start shooting. I believe if you get close to them, then they will also activate and can kill civilians as you approach. You also have the bombs, which I think have a 10 or so minute timer. [/b]

It was pretty ridiculous they made Port Hoken barricaded suspects when how highly dangerous the suspects are. Should have been Raid like the original. It was dumb in Elephant that we are handcuffing every civilian when that's not how it works in real life active shooters. Everybody remembers Columbine and Sandy Hook,the kids weren't brought out in handcuffs.

Most of them now are yeah, because the different selectable game modes for each map (up to 5 variants) were taken out from the game with the 1.0 update for "narrative cohesion".
