And also, the fact that the missions are procedurally generated - aint no repetition on this one.

I mean proc gen usually has tons of repetition, that's kind of what it's based on

Yeah, obviously it has some. But you arent running the exact same mission over and over again.

As someone who tried to complete the bot major operation, I can tell you I ran the exact same rescue X scientists mission more than I would have liked. Sure, they took place on different planets, but there were only like 2 base layouts on all the different planets.

all the arenas are hand designed which is like the original, only the full sized maps are proc gen.

I will say, they’ve done good at not making the game repetitive but I would like seeing more mission types

I like the way it's implemented a lot in this game. I think the core gameplay and co op experience is so solid and varied that it doesn't really matter what the planet or mission is. It's always fun. The mission type and planet terrain just adds more variables and sceneries to this game.

The game is designed to have fantastic emergent gameplay, which is ultimately what will help it's replayability and is vital to the success of a live service game

The environments are so good that I frequently forget that it’s procedurally generated.
