    changes to pvp and pve map wide are necessary

    i just hear so much from pvp players that just want to do pvp. they'll do the other stuff too, but what will keep them coming back for 100s of hours at end game is pvp fun. so let the darkzone evolve more and more into an intense pvp place. integrate game mechanics/modes into it beyond just free roaming. evolve the dz into the incredible pvp place it could be. but that is only an option as long as devs allow the rest of the beautifully designed map to regain relevance as a viable fun pve world. to farm materials, awesome gear, fun firefights, boss/elite encounters with great drops etc. we shouldn't need the dz in order to get great gear. just like people who love pvp shouldn't need to endure "dull" pve to get good gear. right now the dz is hedging its bets. it's trying to stop from turning into a whole pvp zone, while also being the only place in the game that allows pvp. it tries to draw players who don't enjoy pvp in, by creating ranks, currency, and gear that's only available in there, with the guise that it's not really a pvp zone, but rather just a pve zone with great loot (which it isn't), tougher enemies (true), and only a technical risk of rogue agents. clearly the dz needs work when the only spot in the game where pvp is viable is hated by pvp players for being too pve-ish and pve players hate it too for being to pvp-ish. instead of creating a world that satisfies everyone, they've got a map right now that leaves everyone frustrated. people who enjoy pvp gameplay aren't logging into the division to enjoy some pvp. they're playing rainbow 6, battlefield, cod, etc. people who enjoy pve are left an empty map, reruns of old missions (only some of which can be put on challenging difficulty), and a horde mode (which i didn't enjoy). and due to random rolls and bad statistical probabilities, most drops are crap and just crafting materials anyway. including yellows. and eventually the teals when the next pink (i think) gear sets come out.

    Only problem i see with the start of this post is that the Dark Zone was never intended to be a PVP place as per the Devs. Personally I don't care for pvp but there should be an area dedicated outside of the Dark Zone for players that want to only just do PVP not like you see now were the majority of the people are flagged as rogues doing whole sale slaughtering while their in there. This has been my personal experience when wandering into the forced Dark Zone for higher lvl gear/ blueprints (i.e. weapon blueprints).
