Darkzone rework | Forums

[peloquin]

The title basically says it all....given the option what would most of you go for and why.

I personally would go for a PVE ONLY DZ as im just about done with the p!ece of **** DZ the way it is now. Rope cutting, Rogues, ive had enough...its not fun and id rather smash my head into the fridge for half an hour, at least i know im not shopping for rogues and collecting sh!t for them pr1cks to steal.

Flame me if you want, call me an inadequate player, git gud blah blah blah...i dont care, im beyond caring at this point. My only saving grace is that i havent bought the season pass and unless things change, i wont be.

Post your opinions below with why youd want this change/or not and reasons why.

I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum. I feel the DZ just got good now for loot, roguing and killing rogues. On the weekend i had so much fun where the entire server was fighting at the library. It was an absolute warzone. If there was fully destructable environments that area would have looked a lot different by the end of it.

I know it's hard solo, but grouping up is easy and I've made 40+ friends since the release of the game that there's always someone to group with in the DZ.

Or...you could just git gud.

The dark zone is insanely fun and exciting. If you want mind numbingly boring PvE, do the HvT's or the incursions.

I ONLY play in the dark zone. I grind the mobs in DZ 2-4 when im solo and kill people as I see them. For the occasions im in a group, we grind DZ 6 and its so fun running into another group.

I used to 50/50 the DZ, 50% solo & 50% with a team, they've basically killed it for solo players now, at GS228 and Rank99, I'm pretty much starting to get bored of it since they jacked up the NPC skill level it's not enjoyable anymore now, and sometimes I just want to play on my own.

I very much doubt I'll still be playing this game in a weeks time..

Also whats the point of the chests anymore, the stuff you get from them is utter crap, not worth wasting keys on, this game was so much better pre 1.2..

The mexican stand offs are hilarious. We had a 3v 8 stand off in the DZ. After my group downed 6 of them and 2 ran, everyone just came back and met up and starting talking. They wanted us to join them in a manhunt but we declined. 11 man manhut is no fun.

Git Gud......now theres an intellectual response worthy of the annuls of forum history....clap clap clap.

Would it ruin your game totally if there was an option of a PVE DZ?....no it wouldnt.

Not sure what's stopping them from just making an option for you to select PVE free-roam where you're still with other players competing for mobs but you can't go rogue. It would be interesting to see how many people would go in there, how many people stay in standard PVP mode, and how the PVPers like it when they have to only play like minded people who are geared to the teeth, in groups, and there for the PVP opposed to picking on solo pvp players griefing them until they quit the game.

Right now, the DZ is still the best place for gearing up despite Massive's lies, and unless you can group up with friends and farm the DZ, you will be behind in the gear department because PVE is extremely limited... especially for Solo or 2-man groups, who might as well just not play this game.

Won't matter if 99% of the community hates the DZ and wants a PVE version, Massive refuses to admit that it is a failed idea.

The DZ was better pre 1.1.

Rogues should take a big XP penalty on death, that's the risk of going rogue. Massive screwed up by nerfing that and it created too many rogues in the DZ. What's odd to me is that Massive seems to want to do more for rogues. That part just doesn't make sense. Forced PvP* is what ruined the DZ.

* sorry, "PvP", you have to use quotes when talking about it in this game.

There would be a group that rotates the spawns faster than anyone else and they will ****talk and slander those who miss the opportunity and cause the latter to come to the forums and whine.
Same thing different story.

the complaints are nothing more than an attempt to shape the game to their advantage to even out their losses. Assuming Massive takes that path that group of people will find out that they are simply just terrible at the game.

Woo wee woo wee, Wambulance is on its way.
