@Fluxxx@Vane when you can't even reach the crates how are you supposed to finish this mission? If it's the farthest box you have no chance, @Drunken has some pictures of the mission showing this. Needs retiring or major adjustments.
I didn't experienced this yet but I think you mean if walkers are blocking the last crate right? So you HAVE to kill them to be able to open the box. Not a big deal in low levels but yes, against high level walkers it's an issue because you can't kill them in one turn.
Any map that has a constant autospawn needs adjusting or retiring IMO. Maybe change it so that it is similar to maps like the narrow path where the walkers stop spawning after x amount of turns. Or set it so that the walkers can only spawn in 2-4 available spaces so that a strategic bruiser charge can block more from spawning.
@Novell do you score high? This map set already has maps that are “boss” The nest even throwing gold at it becomes nearly impossible. You can simply reach that furthest crate using festive bat on a lucky spawn, but then auto spawn traps you in. Then I believe it was 7x in a row that the last box needed was furthest with 0 chance of getting it.
@Danski_46 ill upload tonight the pics showing the spawn trapping me after getting all boxes, the one blocking the exit, and the photos I sent guild about the last box I needed. Was insane then I MM48 on 9th try with dumb luck
I’m F2P so I get nowhere near the levels people who pay do.
It seems daft though that people willing to spend money (on gold I’m guessing) can’t get as far as normal (and in doing so are more likely to spend money on gold).
Some of the levels are pure dogshit and this is one of them.
Imagine being a new starter and playing this, you’d just stop playing.
So far I’ve managed to achieve 3 stars in the Nest up to the level where I usually stop achieving 3 stars (38). So, compared to my personal records this map so far is OK.
Obviously, for the 40+ lvl players this is a different challenge, but do I get it right that this map prevents you from achieving as many stars than usual? What’s the difference then?
I can say I am ready to quit or stop playing competitively with maps like this and other game related issues. I will drastically cut back my playing time after NW and most likely never spend again.
Ironically, if maps like this are all tweaked to be easier, then we get issues with endless challenges, which players also hate. I can see how it's a tough balancing act for NG. Let's just be happy that we don't have to play Behind Corners AND The Nest this week.

@imnfiction this map specifically becomes strictly a gold dump, spend enough gold you can pass at 50, I just completed it last night at MM48, but point is the map is bad it has nothing to do with skill and everything to do with luck
@JayZ but as my photos show how bad this map is. I’m not saying we don’t need difficult maps, but do we really need maps where once it starts you auto flee? This week still has the first map, loading dock? Or whatever it is which is auto spawn and opening a door.
That takes 3 turns and pray you don’t get stunned or go into struggle at high level. That map is a gold dump as well, but if willing to pay you can play. The Nest is IMO The worse map, plus % chance that 3rd is far right seems to be extremely high.
So sure we need map stoppers or we get burnt out, but this is just a nightmare and pure greed. This coming from a guy who $$$ a ton and don’t care about gold. I burnt 40k gold to craft today, but easily can burn 1k gold trying to get lucky
@JayZ tweaked to be 'not impossible' wouldn't make an endless challenge. I have to question NGs reasoning in putting a goldmine challenge right before NW, they know players will want as many round passes as possible.

I'm @ 37/1. Don't spend gold for healing and only buy some nice weapons. No gas booster. Usually i reach 1600 - 1800 stars. Surely The Nest and Loading Bay are the hardest maps at this challenge. But every challenge has one map that show you your limits.
Every week's challenge missions are generally fun and enjoyable up to a certain point, problem is every week the masochists that we are, we want to push ourselves beyond that point.
Another thing that crops up in this and other missions is spawns on the exit making it impossible to complete the mission. @Fluxxx@Vane could this not be coded out? Make exit zones out of bounds for new spawns?
I don’t know, for me Loading Bay was clearly harder. We already get better weapons and heroes all the time so making the maps easier as well should be considered carefully.
@Burmeliinis what level is your Eugene LT? That’s what makes that map bearable. Eugene with luck on weapon. But even still you get door open you pray that no walker is blocking door
