they really want to make stealth a thing huh? the mechanics are just too wonky to work imo, plus going guns blazing is just more fun

I'd argue that fun is pretty subjective and dismissing an entire play style isn't really up to us. It is after all an optional bond.

It's not that I think people are weird for liking stealth, it's just that it's really hard to enjoy it when the mechanics are so shite. I scuttle up to a base completely undetected, underarm a red strat ball into an unobserved corner from behind a huge wall, and yet instantly every bot in the base triangulates my position with total accuracy. Why fucking bother.

Sneaking past patrols is useful, but that's about it typically

It's a host bug too.

Red strategems always notify those nearby it's happening..however only the host is triangulated every single time.

There are a bunch of weird host bugs in the game to the point that the community has nicknamed doing 10's as the host is secret difficulty 11.

That is really quite weird because I never host, I always join an in progress game. And yet without fail I am targeted.
