I disagree, though seing as you didn't bother to read any of the other posts on the subject it's easy to see why you think that

The problem is that the killing increases alert level mechanic had waaay to many issues.

The first being it resulted in a lot of players just running around in circles waiting for the heist ais to open stuff, which is just kinda stupid and not fun as a mechanic.

Second being that a couple of the ais themselves were having issues where they prioritized killing mobs over listening to player's commands

The last big point I can think of ties in with the last one, in normal contracts and even more so in the grand heists the ais killing stuff despite you just running through packs was enough to make a big dent in the alert bar with no fault of the players (especially certain heist members with aoe attacks)


But overall the killing raising the bar had no decision making involved as the layouts don't really offer alternative ways to go to avoid getting enemy attention, opening doors will aggro entire rooms occasionally, etc

So removing it was the right choice no matter what. At least with it gone they don't have to try and fix the slew of issues involved with it. And past this either it just stays this way or they implement some new mechanics a bit later to make it more challenging.

I mean at least some of the escapes are hard as long as the enemies spawn en masse.

Disagree

League is actually worth engaging with now and you can actually open boxes

Before the changes U could not even do anything because your alert lvl was sky rocketing no matter how you tried to play

League mechanic actually good now
