Synthesis Week 2: What we're working on

"

Transportation encounters require you to be closer to them before they'll begin. Previously, they began when you were further away than felt correct.

Appreciate the fixes but honestly this is a pointless waste of time and effort on the previous league while the current one has sooo many issues with its own mechanics. All you had to do is simply temporary change Intervention to be already spawned on the map like Transportation. Map encounters like Fort and Transportation do not lag. It's just the moment of spawning of Intervention that causes this. I know, I know, this is not what you intended for Intervention but it's a much better and faster solution than adjusting it on the fly without guarantee that it will work. You can keep testing it internally, not dump it on us to "test" the previous league again while playing a convoluted and frustrating new one. Kinda... ridiculous.

Syndicate doing less damage initially is pointless, any amount of damage will kill you if you're frozen. Less mobs spawning from the encounter itself is also beyond pointless since Intervention tends to spawn around huge packs of mobs anyway which causes this lag and freezes.

Honestly at this point you're wasting your time and you're wasting our time. Just let Intervention to be already spawned on the map which will fix the lag issue instantly, boost the intelligence numbers and forget about Betrayal. Focus on the current league and its issues (of which there are many). Or just stay stubborn and insist on fixing and tuning Betrayal little by little week after week and by the time you start improving Synthesis, there will be a month left until the next league...
