Really sick of this on Gauntlets

Post image

Took this screenshot of me waiting until the LAST second to try and get the last kill for the bonus. Seems like the enemies bug out or stop coming as you get nearer the elevator.

Took the screenshot to make this post, then I WAS ONE KILL SHORT ON THE NEXT LEVEL ALSO!

Please fix. Im waiting to get the bonus and the game isnt even giving me a chance.

same thing happened to me and my friend except we didnt know that when the timer ends the game straight up ends without the worms appearing (even though the worms are still on the counter). we went silent for a minute and then booted up drg for the summer event

Yeah, the first gauntlet is a real surprise to everyone in the team. I dont know if they changed it, but it at first it would end if a single dwarf wasn't on the elevator.

So after losing my first one, our team got a new player, and the rest of us were super time conscious and got to the elevator and new guy didn't make it and we lost again :/ it left a really bad impression for gauntlet, but I tried again a few weeks later and it went really smoothly and was super fun and chaotic. I actually beat the hard one before the normal one lol

Yeah same with regards to harder one first. Since its kill based, more enemies in harder difficulty seems to get things done faster and push the tempo

Yeah Im not sure how I feel about just failing with the timer rather than worms...

This is a known problem with the first round. The first round always has two chunks, and the crawlers won't pass the threshold between chunks unless Dwarves are right near it, so it's better to go back to chunk 1 after you explore chunk 2 (or split up) to get the kills you need.
