Replayed exactly the same Deep Dive?

[Guvenoren]

Suddenly, me and my buddy just replayed exactly the same deep dive. Exactly the same loot and exactly the same layout 2 days after our previous. What happened?

[BolaSquirrel]

Deep Dives are seeded each week, so everyone will get the same one. There will be a new Deep Dive and new Elite Deep Dive this Thursday.
This means you can create a meta each week and compare your time with other groups.

[Guvenoren]

But how can I replay it with exactly the same loot? Why? It makes no sense. Same enemy spawns triggers too. It should pre proceedially generated too.

[Rubric]

It's intentional, every week a new deep dive seed is made and every deep dive you play until the reset (on Thursday or so) will be the exact same, only potentially different thing is when enemies spawn, but even the enemy types will be the exact same.

[Guvenoren]

That's horrible. Why? Even the same loot? I can't fathom why

[BolaSquirrel]

The entire community has the same Deep Dive experience every week. You can speedrun the normal/elite Deep Dives and compare your times, and also if you are talking about it on the forums and you're like, "man we got hit by a Bulk Detonator during the final defense in part 2, that SUCKED" or "we landed right in front of 2 spitballers and a brood nexus, wtf?!" everyone else got to experience that same moment, and you can form strategies for how to get around it.

Because, like it's been said before Deep Dives are a different way to play the game. A new meta each week. You can speed run it now if that's your thing.. etc.

It is okay that you don't like it. You can keep playing the regular missions with the rest of the gameplay updated

I particularly enjoy the RNG and a random Bulk spawning at your droppod when you are leaving and the random persons dealing with everything. Deep Dives for me (always co-op) are way different and I try to play them with friends

I guess this ends the discussion.

Mad lost opportunity there. So there's essentially no reason to play it once every week. Kind of counter intuitive to what the game is set out to be imo.

i really like the idea of a "meta" -.- why does every single game need a meta , i mean srsly. just have fun

You must have misspoke. Unless you speed run you will play it once per week because every week it changes.

[Chibbity]

It's a once a week raid, that's the intent. You can replay it but you only get the rewards once per week.

It's just 3 relatively normal missions back to back anyways, if yo want that go play 3 normal missions?

If the loot wasn't limited to once per week everyone would have already burned through it and be they'd be complaining about how they have nothing to do.

At the end of the week it'll update and you'll have 2 new Deep Dives to play. If you beat both of those then yeah, there's no reason to replay it this week if you don't care about improving your time. If you want procedurally generated missions there's still tons of them, Deep Dives are just a different way to play.

Also, having played the normal Deep Dive three times this week, with different friends, I can say that it is *not* 100% the same every time.

The overall map is the same, yes, but enemy spawns + spawn times vary slightly.

[Guvenoren]

I see what you lot mean, but it seems just.. boring? I guess each to their own, I find it a missed opportunity and in the end it's not really that hard to begin with to wanna have spoiler alert mode on for people to build "strategies". Idk, not really the expectations I had for it. I expected 3 deep dives with high difficulty and sweet loot if you even had the chance to survive. But nah, just 3 levels that are mediocre and you can spoil yourself the run to get loot that you can only get once a week.

I am not expecting everyone to see that and just protect this game with tooth and nail. So I will just unsubscribe to this discussion and just deal with it I guess.

that is not good enough imo. We just noticed it me and my bud and we simply breezed through the run in like 20 minutes or so. most spawns seemed similar. But if that's enough to keep you going then uuh good for you I guess?

have you tried this week's Elite Deep Dive? I'd be amazed if you've been managing to breeze through that.
