    Just when i thought Massive could drop no lower shields

    Well here we go another shield , and on survival , and it is not retroactive .??? Is massive talking the mickey ? 5 hours in survival another 5 stupid hunters .??? to get perks to play another game ,.. ?..

    Its things like this that really make me want to uninstall the dam game and forget about any more games by massive.. Get a life Massive and play your own game , it takes ages to get in to survival to start with , then the slow servers, you are playing us like mugs .. Or is it ONLY hardcore gamers that you want to play D2 ? ..

    What about people that work all week and can only play a little while now and then ? .. Who thinks up this junk .. Whoever it is does not think about the whole player base..

    The fact alone that we look forward to such an easy task as this new Shield shows that TD is in its final throes. I like Survival and I am glad about full servers due to the Shield, but it is not a real challenge, imho.

    You are only looking at 3 runs to get all that. Hardest part is to get players not to rush through. 5 hours, you can stretch a game to just over 2 hours, so 3 runs there. If you are really good you might be able to stretch it out to 2.5 hours and that means 2 runs and you are done. 3 possible extraction points, 3 Hunters per session. Plus if you hit another player's Hunter and it dies. You should get credit for that. Do that twice, you achieve that in 1 run. Extract 5 items, well you can carry 6 and considering everything but Survival caches are absolutely abysmal loot wise. You don't have to get greedy and take whatever you find and done in 1 run. So in 1 run you complete 2/3 of the Shield. The last 2 runs, you don't even have to get to the DZ. You just have to run in circles and killing time. To me this is the easiest shield to date. Funny thing is most players will have a hard time cause they will be focused on sticking it to the other players instead of survival.

    The only shield you should be worried about whether it is retroactive or not is the exotic one.

    Everything else is a walk in the park.

    I think the point the OP is trying to make is, from what I have seen. Majority of the player base has already did all of these achievements. If it is retroactive, we are all done in there big plan for "Shields". Once again they want us to replay what we have already replayed to death in most circumstances.

    Personally there isn't a "Shield", I haven't earned if they are retroactive. They aren't new goals, they are goals we already achieved cause they don't have new ideas. We get it, "Rat", "Cheese", "Maze". What they don't seem to add is the "FUN". Hopefully they are saving that for TD2.

    Nope.
    Just completed an extraction , i kill my Hunter , 30 secs later 2 more players enter area plus 2 more hunters.
    Put about 1/2 a clip in one of them , both 2nd & 3rd hunters down and it showed on my Survival End Results as 2 Hunter Kills , But Not on my Phoenix Commendation
    So it's either a last bullet kill or complete kill to yourself


    P.S ... I'd liked to Thank the 2 dead players whose bodies i looted during the mission.

    LOL

    Well great, they are doing the last bullet **** again, No reason to run in a team then. cause I won't get any kills. Also if it is last bullet, then no reason for Electronic gear pieces. You will want all FA. Cause in the past, skill kills does nothing but stick it to you and a waste of time.

    You would think they would do something a little different with the shields , a new named boss or 2 hidden around the map ? . Just something to say thanks for playing hope to see you in the division 2 ... But no all we get is the same old same old and more bugs and nerfs lol..

    5 hours in survival..piece of cake.

    Step 1: Acquire rubber-band
    Step 2: Start survival
    Step 3: Put rubber-band around joystick while still in safehouse and make agent run in circles.
    Step 4: Put controller down and go do something else more satisfying(watch paint dry, grass grow, etc) for an hour. Rinse and repeat 5 times.


    Hunters: Thats two solo runs maximum.
