I wasn't even going to try it, but I gave it a shot today just to see wtf it was about and I had a blast. Lost the first two "missions" but won the second two. It was pretty challenging and enjoyable and people seemed to "get" right away that if you stay together you can win, else your screwed. Missions last about 20 minutes (or at least my two that we won did).

I could see myself playing this more for sure.

The only issue so far is the lag can be atrocious.

What do people think so far?

When I initially heard about it I thought it was a joke. Played around with it the past two days though, and it is ridiculously fun.

Also, missions vary from 13 minutes (fastest i've done so far on Bronze) to over 30 on Gold.

Overall I have a good time in it, but there is a lot of herp, and a bit of derp as well. also, if someone leaves in the middle of the match you are most likely screwed, at least for silver+ bronze with the right chars you can duo reasonably well (at least i can at this point), i havent tried to solo one but i bet i could grin almost managed to duo a silver when two people dropped half way through but died in wave 9. i'm not sure if they changed it, because i know in the demo people would hop into games in progress if there was empty space, but i've never seen it happen since release.

Do the enemies scale with the number of players? I haven't been able to figure that out yet.

I dont think they do,at least it doesnt feel like it.
I am just doing bronze cause my highest toon is a lvl 18 engineer and anything less than 4 in the party and party gets wiped.

This. My friends and I are having a lot of fun with it despite being skeptical when we first heard about it. Beat our first gold this weekend.

I like it, its one of the best "horde" modes I have played in a long time.

you cannot rambo in this mode, well in bronze you can until you run into banshees and those vanishing ninja bitches.
