    I Love Survival

    Wow. Survival is so fun. Seriously. I've soloed it three times now and done it with a team twice. It's not easy, but it's not any more difficult than it needs to be. My opinion is that it's one of the most fun game modes I've ever played.

    I did get errored out of one when I was fighting two hunters instead of one...but it let me return! Nice.

    Good job with this game mode guys. I really like it. I can see how more casual players who don't have an hour or two to intently play this would be a little turned off. But I think it goes faster with a team. So matchmake!

    So far I agree. It also feels like the pvp the dz should have been if you're against going rogue. If you pick pvp, its pvp. The dz has always needed that choice. I could care less about gear and guns anymore, so I've just entered survival to survive, and to raise some hell for 20 minutes or if I have time, as long as I can survive. And if you want a cover based tactical shooter, survival is it. My only complaint, its always dark.

    I don't like the pvp in this game. Maybe it's the 3rd person. Idk. I play a lot of Destiny and COD before that for pvp and enjoy it. So I'm just doing the PVE for now. Maybe once I get a team together we can do some pvp enabled survivor.

    I'm just starting to see the fun of pvp in survivor. How about shooting a dude and letting him crawl around and wait for someone to show up? That'd be great. You have to realize, I've been playing for a long time and never gone rogue.

    If it was a last man standing type of thing (I realize that's on the way) then I might do it and spec for it and everything. Idk I've never liked how the engagements play out. Win or lose. Just never liked it.

    But I could do this survivor all day.

    There's a time limit to that, though.

    And it's worth noting that if you error out after you create the filter but before you enter the dark zone then you're screwed. The game forgets you created the filter and your progress is locked. So yeah... That's not fun.

    I've played it just a handful of times, yet to complete one session though. I came close on my last run but got downed by a hunter. However I received three caches for my trouble. In the survival cache I got my very first Barrett bulletproof vest!

    Thanks! I've been farming very little for the named gear items, run a mission or two every day. Ran Lex the most, but nowhere near as many times as others have. I currently have skulls glove, ninja backpack and now Barrett vest. All 3 from different loot sources.
