Rogue-Free DZ Felt like PvE should be
So very rarely, I've been put on a Dark Zone server where there is no-one else, and no other players seem to get matched/added to it. Last night this happened, and I got 3 other friends to join me. Then we got 3 more friends to get on the same server also.
So for about 6-8 hours, we have 4-7 people in a PSN Chat, in two Game-Squads, running around together farming the DZ zones. Complete heaven. We made full rounds fighting NPCs, Looting Chests, Extracting, Ranking up our DZ Rank, collecting DZ Funds, and doing supply drops.
If someone got killed, no worries, their stuff would be there when they re-spawned without worry. If there was cross-fire accidental rogues, no worries about getting turned on by the nearby squad.
NPCs were always up, we could barely make it two landmarks away before the first would be repopulated; so there was always enemies to be killed and shooting at us. Always a little danger so we still couldn't run around willy-nilly.
Never had so much fun playing with friends and actually making great progress and looting in the DZ.
This felt very much like how I think the PvE should feel.
Left my two characters in there over night to try to preserve it (surprisingly neither of them got killed), but sometime this morning it started to match other players in again. I got on to hear from my friend he was just recently killed by a rogue, so he just left there not long ago.
