    Full disclosure, my main beef with this game.....

    ....is the way NPCs spawn. The whole outcast-suicide-bomber-spawning-right-next-to-you b.s. is getting tired, bruh.

    Yeah, spawns nearby with those guys suck hard. But if you're super quick on the draw, you can shoot them in the legs or head and stagger them. I've found that trying to dodge-roll away isn't very effective.

    Headset and music off helps a lot.

    Worst and least thought out enemy type in the game by a long shot.

    They're super annoying and have no reason to exist. Suicide bombers wouldn't go after random individuals. Nowhere in history has that ever been the first choice for attack or defense.

    The Federal Bunker mission is dead to me.

    A year ago, this might be a valid argument to the OP's complaint. It used to be that you could hear the beep and their loud footsteps in plenty of time to do something about it. But now, on heroic, there is no warning whatsoever. You usually never see them because they spawn behind you, and by the time you hear them, you are dead.

    They spawn from designated spawn points.

    Well, to be fair, they're not going after random individuals. They're going after highly trained Division agents.

    The only place I've noticed enemies spawning from nowhere is in the Summit — there's one type of room where enemies will pop up in the middle of the room, right before my eyes. Everywhere else they clown car out of some doorway or sewer hole (usually adjacent to where I'm taking cover, but that's on me).

    this ,also map awareness helps a lot too ,you turned your back to an obvious possible spawn point in a floor that you already knew had bombers on it, learning is part of the game nt a flaw , this is another inflamatory nonsense complaint that rightly deserves the "gitgud" meme.

    where would you be confortable with them spawning ? the floor above ? and then not alowed to do anything else than run to you screaming as loud as they can for 2 minutes ?

    npcs already make our life easier enough , cant count how many times i would be dead if the NPC really fugged me up instead of shouting he was going to do it before on top waiting at least a full second before he starts shooting.

    this makes me remember when people cryed for UBI to remove the c4s and bombers from terrorist hunt on SIEGE because all they wanted was to warm up and listen to music... guess what i used to play it for fun , not warm up , and when UBI took those away to please the egocentric players , they destroyed an already very poor game mode , havent touched the game since , so i instantly react when i see a post like this and i hope NO ONE takes you seriously.
