    Do you like the DZ and what is your gear score?

    I have a theory, who is fan of the dark zone and who's not. Help me confirm or rebut it.

    Love it. So many different ways to play and enjoy the game. Only downside is running into groups of 6-8 super geared people running together. It doesn't happen often, though - and I just switch servers when it does... 194 gs right now.

    The survey forces a "like it or hate it" choice, which is okay -- but not really where I stand.

    My gear score is anywhere from 187 to 195 depending on what I equip (I have an absolutely demonic purple LVOA-C, but I usually use my AK). I cannot say I like or hate the DZ - it just is. It's pretty much the only thing to do unless you feel like running a mission for the umpteenth time or shooting level 25 mobs in mostly empty streets, so I've spent enough time in the DZ to reach rank 75, extract a lot of gear, and all that.

    I do enjoy sort of going zen and running loops shooting bad guys, trying different weapons, and so forth. I don't get into the rogue thing on either side, unless by accident.

    So, I am at peace with the DZ and find elements of it entertaining. However, if the coming update proves to satisfy the itch to fight named elites, I could walk away from the DZ without a second thought.

    I mean, I like parts of it... but i don't really enjoy the PvP of it. (The mechanics of it are just crap... and people just go rogue because its the easiest way to make DZ credits and/or they are bored... Which doesn't line up with what the game intended.)

    I guess I'll vote... Like?

    Edit: GS 200+ here... (Granted, that's with the best GS loot and not what I use all the time.)
