This is intentional.

Say you join a MP server partway through a BM. This mechanic ensures you will get a horde after the primary MB horde calculations were already done.
Originally posted by Tech Enthusiast: Certainly never has been like this before A20, but I don't mind. Free XP.It's been like this since at the very least A16. Horde night officially lasts until 4am; However you can very much run out of zombies to kill depending on your game stage- Higher gamestage = more zombies to kill; And eventually unless you've got an ultra optimized base or killing hallway, you'll hit a point where you simply cannot kill the zombies fast enough to run out before 4am.
Day 7 Horde always ends around midnight, depending on how fast you can kill,... so getting a second horde is very welcome!
Originally posted by Tech Enthusiast: You could run out of zombies, yes.Well then..amusingly.. You had some kind of bug before, heh. Because it was very much a thing in A19. And A18..and A17. Not 100% sure about A16; More like 85%, But yeah. Definitely an older function than A20.
But the horde would not resume or respawn if you logged out and back in again.
I did 15+ runs in A19 and always log out after Horde night. Never had it spawn again on me when logging back in the day after. That is certainly new.
