Please make this happen , not all the time do I want to play with other people , I don't like being forced to enter the DZ with a group or I will get destroyed by another group . I have a lot of friends ,but sometimes I just want to play solo .I really hope you consider making PvP solo option in 1.6 update .
I have yet to encounter this myself but ofc people will find ways to cheese it, maybe if they removed the option to team up once in there it could help.Originally Posted by Commander-Blue Go to original post
I think some of the problem in the DZ is the 'revive' function. I wouldn't really want to see this mechanic lost completely because I really wish we could get back to the concept of cooperating and helping each other a lot more in this game. However, given that the DZ is not about that, one issue for solo players is that even if you get a rogue (or a player on another team down) 90% of the time they get revived whilst you are fighting the remaining players.
If there was no revive in the DZ or if there was no revive if you are shot by players who are solo or in a team with a lower number of players, I think it would balance things more. Or make the time required to revive much longer, with a correspondingly longer time that players can remain in the downed state (waiting to be revived).
Perhaps it could be made that in the DZ you go straight to 'unconscious' requiring a much longer revive time BUT you can remain on the map for say 1-2 minutes in the unconscious state.
Or... make the downed status a little longer but whenever a player is downed that already counts as a kill (i.e. player drops DZ$, loot and loses XPs) and the downed player can't be revived if the team is in combat [I'd accept the sig skill revive only]. This should also avoid to have kills (for who's sick for stats) stolen by other players...Originally Posted by Winslow-the-Dog Go to original post
I put in another thread that they should add 1v1, 2v2, etc queues to DZ and disabld group invites when inside these modes. They can leave the current free for all mode as is to satisfy those that like to gank and be ganked. I appreciate that players could still co-op but at least you don't get rolled by a group who have 8 skills to use.
That, plus a two team arena should cover off most permutations, unless people want king of the hill, capture the flag, domination etc modes.
