it was a balance decision. Adding events on each level would have broken the balance, especially taking into consideration the fact that the number of traps and ways to deal with partygoers increased significantly compared to the original game.

No offense, but I really don't think that's a valid reason for not adding them. Not every event has to be as strong as, say the stripper on the factory level. I really don't think events like the bear on the tutorial level would have "broken the balance".

Furthermore, more events is the least of your concerns when it comes to balance. Stun guns, crazy booze, and acid literally break the level. I don't have to hide or outsmart the cops when I can just taze them and stab them to death, I dont have to worry about positioning when I can just give everyone around my target crazy booze and make them run away, hell if I have a can of acid I can just melt whoever I want at will in plain sight.

Even with all that aside, this is primarily a single player game. Fun should be prioritized over balance. If youre that concerned about it, just take away the posters in hard mode. Now, obviously I'm not a dev, so I don't know if there were extenuating circumstances, but I hope you can see how "meh" of a reason this comes off as to the average player.

i have to agree, the phone cals in the first game helped make the levels feel interesting in finding out what they do, and dealing with whatever chaos it causes like callin in someone to plant an explosive that brings in the swat teams that you have to watch out for while they kick everyone unconscious or bringing in the chainsaw guy to start destroying people before the cops arrest him with the chance he comes after you instead

the poster in the second level made it seem like that you should check every poster you can find for a phone number to call to shake things up but the lack of such posters is a bit depressing since theres not much to shake things up.
