Can bees get a fix?

[SCPeach (Math Guy)]

Beehives are a great thing in this game, risk, reward, and requires you to know how to deal with them, but at the moment it seems like their pathfinding is VERY broken. Dropping them in certain spots on the ship's catwalk causes them to go rogue, they seem to be able to just pass through the ship door on March, and sometimes they just go rogue anyway. Not to mention lobbies where certain players don't see the bees and aren't affected by them, and sometimes rogue bees just spawn at the start anyway.

I agree, bees are really buggy and have issues that need to be fixed. I've spawned in on occasions where I can hear them but I can't see them and they can't kill me but my friends do and end up dying to them. Other times they become permanently hostile even if they still have their hive. I also think they should give circuit bees fixed spawns so that they aren't right next to the ships railings or even under the ship for that matter.

No one said for them to be nerfed, we want them fixed because they are bugged. Big difference.

I do know if you put them at back of ship and stand in the far corner they'll attack thinking you're outside and near them.

But otherwise I've noticed recently bees seem to be able to easily just decide "♥♥♥♥ the hive." and just chase players relentlessly and not return to hive, UNLESS you lead them to the hive, which most won't realise/get to do unless they got infinite stamina.

Not sure if bigger lobbies related since I do know it seems to kind of bug some enemies out in general.

Push your elitism away, literally asking for a bug fix, not a nerf. Anyone can solo beehives, easily, they're broken, not unbalanced.

+1: in the past i've landed on moons with ppl and while i can hear the bees I do not see them or get hurt by them, so we get free hives basically. I've only noticed this on Vow and maybe March.

Stumbled on this issue too, when playing with some friends recently, on two or three occasions:
the hives had no bees on them despite the buzzing noise being present; we could collect hives for free.

I assume it's a newly-introduced issue.

The bees glitched up into the floor to kill me once, and only half the swarm was visibly in the ship :/

i mean you can always just lead them back to the nest they will return to them and you can try again even if they go crazy =o

Dude they're BUGGED, I'm not complaining about them being unfair

[TulipNova]

agreed sometimes i run to the ship to place the hives then the bees decide that they want to attack my team and not me im holding the hive too and they just start killing my teammates if i don't run to them to lead them back

it happend the same to me i was playing solo on assurance and i saw a beehive worth 130 so i just needed to grab it cuz good value and when i dropped it on like edge of the ship the barriers y know they didnt stop chasing me i closed the door and started the ship but they killed me and my 2000 value on ship was gone... that was some bullsh-
