Survival of the fittest, the strong prey on the weak etc etc etc.
It makes perfect sense. If you find yourself face down in a snowdrift, bleeding out, well, Darwin is smiling - one less subpar survivalist contaminating the gene pool. Your death serves a purpose as well, to provide for those stronger and fitter, the survivors.
They might even revive you ;-). Seriously, i don't see the difference betweenOriginally Posted by BryanTurnbull Go to original post
a) bleeding out, losing time and stuff in that "single player session" you would prefer
b) dying and being looted by another player.
Your "result" would be the same.
Also, what Murphee said, there has to be a bit of competition in survival, like the race for landmarks, medicine, division tech...
It's just ****ing stupid. PVE Survival should not include other players at all. Why even give us PVE AND PVP Survival if PVE actually ends up coming down to PVE+P.
I guess the devs don't actually know what PVE/PVP mean, which might explain a few things in regards to this game.
Nothing wrong with having other people on the server, it adds to the survival experience, although I mostly play PVP unless I"m playing with friends who prefer PVE. Now as far as the finishing off of players in PVE, well the devs don't understand the concept of PVE, well one Dev in particular actually. In PVE mode you should not be able to be finished in a downed state, and especially not while being revived by another player. A player's loot shouldn't appear until they have left the server. Now, deciding to revive a player or not is a choice, and if a unconcious player wants to stick out his 5 minute timer to see if someone revives him, well that's their business.
You dont want to get first in landmark cause you then need to deal with the NPC while some other guy runs in and dont need to deal with the NPC and take all the loot from the landmark.Originally Posted by DonMarfil Go to original post
They need to make it so that you get key's from NPC when you kill them and you dont need to pick them up cause then there can be some camper guy who dont kill bots and just steal the loot from you and these keys to.
Keys are to open the loot places and you need to get in alone and not these guys who didnt kill the NPC's.
If you dont shoot bots you dont get loot and you cant take loot from some other guy who kills bots.
It's PVE and this is how it should work.
For PVP i would like it to work the way it works in PVE that in LZ you gear up and when you enter in the DZ then the PVP starts where you can kill the other guys
But PVE already easy, you can have teams of 8 players in the DZ, By ensuring that doesn't happen it will be harder. wouldn't it?Originally Posted by Merphee Go to original post
And it makes perfect sense when you kill the bots/Npcs players can run in and grab everything including boss drops while you dealing with all the agro? and you can simply just watchOriginally Posted by EddyRockSteddy Go to original post
