Hello,
I have noticed since the last 60 gb patch there has been abnormal purge behavior. I have a base built up on a cliff… with enough space in front of it for a spurge to spawn in. I also have a ground level base. In the past the purge typically has either spawned at our ground level base or just in front of our cliff base, which i have no problem with.
Recently however, the last two purges have spawned right on top of our cliff base on the roof and inside the base. Bypassing all of the defenses we spent a lot of time building up. It feels cheap when an npc can bypass all ones defenses , that would take a player a lot of resource to destroy in order to gain access to the base. The Purges ability to destroy tier 3 building material with only hand weapons makes them incredibly powerful… so to be able to wrap through walls and start destroying ones base from the inside without have to deal with your outer defenses is incredibly defeating. I have no issue with my base being attacked… but when powerful NPCs can cheat their way in… that is just plain old cheap. It also make ones waste valuable tier 3 resources to build up defenses that mostly go unused when compared to defending against players. This is already a very grinding game … less please not add more grind to it. the PCs should have to abide the same rules as a player… they need to work their way in… not get to blip pass defenses
I would very much appreciate if you look into the algorithm and adjust as soon as you can. It seems to be a know issues so I suggest pausing purges till this algorithm has been figured out. Just as you guys did when you paused god summoning/bubbles till that got fixed.
Steps on how to reproduce issue:
- Just wait for a Purge. Test it out on a base built on a cliff or broken aqueduct
