[Disgusting Biomes]
The Swamp biome (Gacrux). Tall-ass trees and rocks that block eagle strikes, thick forest with no clear view on anything on the map. And that river that can divide the map in half, with bug spores on you can't even see it on the minimap. Does anyone like this biome?

The Desert biome. Do you like the sandstorms on Phact Bay? 3 meter visibility is so great, gives me GTFO PTSD. GTFO on Steam, niche hardcore co-op shooter
Still not as bad as the Swamp.

Biomes with thick fog where enemies can see your perfectly, especially bots that fire at you from hundreds of meters away. So fun and fair.

Some of these planets will never be liberated or defended because players want to be able to see and want their stratagems to be able to reach the ground.

Vandalon IV and similar have almost perfect conditions, nice and cold, see across entire map, lots of stray hellbombs. Get that Muscle Enhancement to walk on snow and through blizzard faster.
HOWEVER: what is going on with spawn rates over there? Non-stop infinite patrol after patrol, chain drop ships with patrols in every direction. You finish one patrol, there is another one literally behind it.

i dont know i like the new biomes , and that i need to adjust to those
disgusting biomes are the most interesting biomes in the game. I would honestly love a mud biome, a stormy ocean biome, etc.

I actually really enjoy the Gacrux biome. I love the verticallity with the trees and that I need to adapt because of the cover blocking certain stratagems.

Sandstorms are actually great, because enemies can't see sh*t. Give me sandstorms over trollnados all day.

I suppose the jungle rendering eagles useless is an oversight by devs, if not, well, adapt your build, do you go with Laser Cannon to Hellmire?

Variety is the spice of life, I like we have many different biomes, even if some of them are Hell on Earth.

yep. same. Gacrux is great. I never had much of an issue with trees blocking my eagle strikes either. there are plenty of open spaces where there are little to no trees in the way.
you obviously have to adapt to your surroundings and plan accordingly.

I want to run the same exactly build every match because thinking is hard.

What is the point of enemies not seeing ♥♥♥♥ if you also don't? I mean maybe in the end the mission is easier but it's annoying

Well, when you are in the middle of an endless reinforcement loop you will think your god was merciful.

Why does it look like you are annoyed about everything mildly demanding in this game?

Don't forget to pack the Booster that allows you to ignore enviromental slow effects like Sandstorms and Blizzards, then just run with good distance from enemies, if you cannot see them, they don't see you either.

As for the Swamp, I've noted that Eagle strats work far better in them, while Orbitals like Precision shot tend to hit the canopy. Haven't tried Barrages, which should clear the trees enough that any further shots will land on enemies.
It is like how we wish AA defenses modifier only affected Eagle strats, with the swamp it does the opposite and affects Orbital strats, although more as a planet wide modifier, which blocks initial shots, then is destroyed and allow other orbital strats to work normal.

Barrages, gatling orbitals, airbust strike, etc work ok, I suppose because the first salvo destroys the canopy, but with eagles, strifing is ok, but the others...I suppose we need to change our mindset because the trees are a factor here.

With the 500kg I have noticed that the trees collision affect the calling point, perhaps I am wrong, but I think so. I guess is the same for the OPS.

Because it's not a challenge, it's just ruining the already garbage visuals. I want to see my game not a brown screen. It is perhaps THE most annoying thing in the game along with fog
