    Matt or Gabe: If you improve the LZ, we'll forget about PvE DZ

    Because so many so called die hard PvPers are scared that a PvE DZ would ruin their game and imho improve customer relations and bring back players that hate the DZ. Why can't you improve the LZ, by adding elements of the DZ to the LZ. Like give the LZ Bosses make them landmarks. Increase the density to the LZ map. Replace some of the Reds with more difficult AI.

    Though you have stated that Ubi/Massive doesn't want to detract players from going to the DZ. You have a number that has requested a PvE DZ. So why can't you bring some of the elements to the LZ for after lvl 30 is reached?

    That's been my stance on this whole debacle this entire time.

    It's better to find more ways to compliment the 1-30 experience, in my opinion. My second suggestion is to add a solo queue DZ, if Last Stand doesn't get any new game modes that invite the solo player.

    Yes, I would love the LZ to get some love. Have been roaming it totday for 2 hours, trying to complete the scavenger hunt, and the map still looks stunning.

    Supply drops, Asher like missions, special HVT's, all can be added for increased experience in my opinion.

    Love the suggestions YodaMan, I wish this thread gets some attention.

    Yes please. Give the LZ some love. Roaming squads of vet/elites would be a great addition. Just more random stuff happening in the streets other than x3 red level 34s. Random events maybe? Defend a helicopter medkit drop (or supply drop!) etc. Just populate more of the LZ... pleeeeease.

    Hope the devs pay attention to this thread. I would daresay that all players in this game would love an overhaul of the LZ.

    - Remove the target intel requirement for HVTs and make special events out of those (HVT xxxxx suddenly appeared on the map, go neutralize him and his gang). Make it so every 2-3 hours a different HVT appears.
    - Re-activate all side missions and encounters post level 30. Have them re-activate weekly once all encounters in a district are completed with appropriate rewards for completion. Get an exotic cache if anyone completes all encounters in all districts before the week ends.

    My two cents...

    Bump, just to put it above the PVE DZ thread

    I'd also love the LZ to get some extra loving. My friends all moved on to other games as they got board of it, so I'm playing solo now.
    I detest the cesspool that is the DZ / Last Stand, find Underground too repetative and Survival mind numbing. I spend most of my time running the named bosses in the LZ and it's getting rather repetative.

    If like previously suggested, the missions would reset and need ruinning for rewards I'd be happy.
    Trying to make me run other DLC / Zones to get rewards doesn't work with me, I detest them and would rather go without the rewards than suffer trying. I'm happy to grind, but I want to enjoy it while I do - surely the game is meant to be fun too? Making me enter other zones for rewards is non productive, I won't do them and neither did my friends want to. I'm still playing (although a lot less than I did), my friends stopped because the LZ never changes.

    As soon as I have run the 15 named bosses I tend to log off now, if the LZ was rewarding me with missions/challenges (that can be run solo for someone who doesn't spend 4 hours a day recalibrating / gear building) then I for one would spend far more time playing. I'm not that great at the game, don't have time to make ultimate builds so just making missions more difficult for rewards doesn't improve the experience for casual solo players like me. I do know that if I had to run every mission on at least 'hard' but in 48hrs from when I started, for the change of an exotic cache then I'd be all over it. The missions are fun, but they are almost pointless to me now as they offer next to nothing for my efforts - meaning I log off instead of staying on for 'just one more mission'. Time permitting, I do try to run all 15 of the LZ bosses because there is always a chance that the next one might drop something I want / don't have. If I have time to spare then I will log on with another character and repeat the run. It does suck a bit that I can only get one of three exotics though.

    Please just give me other things to run to make the game more fun for me - missions / side missions / collectables. I know many players will say this will make it too easy to get exotics - the way I see it, the players saying that will already be geared up to the max and don't need them anyway. It would be great if there were exclusive LZ exotics and PV exotics - this way it wouldn't matter to anyone what exotics I have because I can't just then enter the PV zones and use them on you.

    Even though I have done what Ubi/Massive can't seem to do and that is unite both PvP and PvE players under one banner. After arguing with most of them that a PvE DZ would be a good idea. Having them on my side, makes me feel dirty some how. lol

    Ditto to what Merphee said.
