What ever happened to the HUNTERS bringing the hunt to you which is why they are called hunters, developers said that the NY hunters would hunt you but what do ya know they're stuck behind dumb puzzles AGAIN! And they de spawn as well, which happened to me with the last four, the mask I wanted de spawned in the middle of the street while me and my teammates were shooting him(LUCKY MASK).
I can agree to this.
But in some ways, I am guessing the Rogue Agents (the NPC ones) who were added with WoNY, that suddenly appear in LZs and missions are meant to be the Hunter substitute.
After all, thet Hunters in Div2 are very forgettable. You just don't remember them because of the whole puzzle gimmick.
As a matter of fact, I've been ignoring most of the Hunter puzzles, so I've hardly seen them in Div2.
(And they were quite a frequent enemy in Div1 Underground, which was a lot of fun.)
