So if I understand this correctly, in order to unlock a WW2 British flamethrowers squad we not only need to play this BS alt-history event, but also pay 900 gold?

I am quite sure the flamethrower squad was initially supposed to be in the brits vs italy event since it fits the theme perfectly but for whatever reason this did not happen. Now they decided to put it behind paywall to encourage people to spend money and play this terribly designed event

Love it, keep up the good work
Is this the first paid Event Squad?
nope, there were 4 squads last year halloween event though players could actually get 1 of the 4 for free back then. (random one, you couldnt choose).
They were added to the gamba box.

I thought you get 2 free ones?
This event is bloody awful, it’s far too hard for randoms and very frustrating, dumb shamblers interspaced with OP mini bosses that just wreck the whole team. Just 1 not very good player just torpedoes the lot of you, and those green grenede guys can get in the bin, and the wait times are horrific. The rewards are OK, and if you want to buy the pass (which I have not done as i’m not confident I can finish the event), the extra weapons and squad are nice. I appreciate you putting something on, sorry but you really dropped the ball this year. last year was so much better.
Zombies constantly glitch though walls, whole ammo thing sucks, teammates suck and constantly die for no reason or go AFK and winning silver chest for winning is insult.
Rewards are copy+paste and Patchett will never face TT.
Meh.

Why does it take so long to find lobby when playing in group? I waited for 10 minutes and still no lobby found

Because it’s a frustrating to play mode and no-one wants to play it. This is why I haven’t paid for the pass, with wait times like these, it’s very possible I’m not going to complete this event. This is not what I want to put up with after a 12 hour shift.

Bunch of tips for anyone reading:
-
Go prone and spam melee (obvious) but when facing a bigger horde move backwards while attacking
-
BUY GRENADES they are cheap AF and immediately pay back after each use. Can be used while downed and there is no inventory limit
-
Always switch to weapons dropped by soldiers, twice even as that would make them lie on the ground permamently (You can have lots of free SMGs, Flamers and Laser RMNs to pick up later this way)
-
When you have 2 OP weapons, dont waste their ammo on a single zombie, use a pistol or a melee.
Thanks

I’d also like to add that if you picked a spot you wanted to defend, stay there and don’t run around unnecessarily.

I tried Laser RMN and it did zero damage to infantry zombies. Probably bugged since they often glitch through walls.

it happens sometimes, best to switch to another weapon simply
I see, but if a weapon does not work sometimes , why using a valuable weapon slot for it? Especially since I think they also spawn flamers close to the wave of the laser zombies.
Well, no one stops you from leaving it on the ground, myself I found myself using only it and flamers in the last game, which was absolutely a great experience. Im glad pistols can be bought infinitely though
Maybe the game tries to implement the recent MM rule of group vs group? So it’s waiting for a stack of zombies to squad up?
