Traitor Detected??

[DeviousMatter]

I was just playing a mission and a message appeared on my screen that said Traitor Detected. What does that mean?

[ImHelping]

It means you are outside of the mission area. if you are out too long they will try to bomb you forever (and somehow miss every enemy) until they kill you.

That said? it is jank. Game loves to spawn you out of bounds already sometimes when it steals controls of your drop pod. And enemies love to be attacking from positions outside the map border to ♥♥♥♥ with you.

"Hmm, do I let the tank keep shooting us with no cover for 1,000 feet? Or risk getting behind it fast enough to kill it before the traitor timer finishes..."

You went out of the map bounds for too long. Enjoy the airstrike, traitor

ahahha

[ANCsemi]

Sit tight, soldier. Your answer will arrive aaany minute now....

That is actually cool! I didn't know what happens when I stay out of bounds for long, but I suspected that it's nothing good. Kudos to devs for doing it this way instead of invisible walls

[DeviousMatter]

Damn, can't run back home to my family I suppose

[Astral Projection]

Serves em right. Damn traitors.

I mean, if you're choosing to drop at the outer edges of the map, that's mostly your own fault. The game isn't going to push you that far.

Did you just out yourself as a deserter?

It is THE best orbital bombardment in the game, keeps the hunters off you for as long as you can keep moving!

It actually can hit enemy so if you are a traitor just run toward the enemies.
The reason it miss them is because its the same operator as the one from the 380MM

It means your about to get a bombardment that lasts as long as your alive. Use it.

You can use it on extermination bot mission to take several dozens of bots with you.

4x 380mm barrages at the start followed by as many traitor barrages as you can muster are the best way to complete extermination defense missions. And when I say best, i mean most hilarious of course.

Who bombs you if your super destroyers are out of orbit and you decide to take a stroll outside of mission relevant zone?
