It seems like 99% of the complaints start with "I was soloing the Dark Zone, minding my own business...".Originally Posted by Monster_M4yhem2 Go to original post
I am honestly convinced most people are not aware that you can queue for the Dark Zone.
I agree with the solo'ing thing - it is annoying getting picked off by rogues a lot of the time but that's part of the game (and actually its that risk/reward and fear of getting lynched feeling that makes the dark zone so enjoyable to play - at times).
The thing that I don't agree with is how unbalanced it can be, especially if you weren't one of the ones fortunate enough to build up the phoenix credits (and hence proper high end gear) when they were more readily available. What then happens is you get idiots like me with ~180 gear score constantly getting flattened by those with gear scores of 200+. I'm all for a firefight if I have even a remote chance of getting out of it (either solo or as part of a team), but with how unbalanced it can be in its current form, its just easy pickings for those with high ranks/decent gear and virtually a waste of time for anyone else. If there are rogues about, especially high level rogues, I seem to spend the majority of my time running around trying to avoid them (and to be honest thats boring - I can do that outside the DZ).
If there was a way of balancing the dark zone (much the same as a lot of other games are able to balance their servers) you'd probably find a lot less people complaining and I think it would actually make the game more enjoyable.
