I honestly don't know what I'm missing with the gameplay in conflict. I love PVP. I am not the greatest player, nor will I ever claim to be but I know my skill level and I cannot for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong with my build. Maybe it's because I don't want to conform to the same garbage meta, although I am close to it. It's hit or miss. Games are so one sided most of the time. I can't stand that the games end with the mercy. Let a team try to come back and win. The game ending like it does is basically enabling the quitting mentality of people. Oh I'm losing, let me quit so I can win. Ridiculous. Man up. Never give up.
I was honestly loving this game and I still think PVE has done a great job but I want PVP and this conflict was always something I was concerned with before the game was released. Division 1 made huge progress in PVP. Last stand was fun. Skirmish was fun and simple. I am not a fan of the current skirmish gameplay. Domination is fun but last stand was better.
Also, take the damn specialization drops out. I honestly feel like it takes away from the game. Especially the grenade launcher but honestly, sometimes people just want to shoot each other. Give us custom matches so we can disable the ammo drop if we choose. I just don't think it has a place. Good idea but in the game, it doesn't fit. Especially compiled with the mercy ending. 1 shot from a grenade launcher can take out a full team and the game is over. If the game doesn't end, the team that got killed could kill a couple people with ammo and turn around and kill their entire team. It just doesn't work.
Conflict needs work....asap. I played division 1 religiously. I left for a short time until 1.6 and then I didn't stop playing until division 2 was released. I'm already not playing this as much. I don't even have the desire and believe me, I am a huge division fan. However, a fanboy I will never be. Conflict needs a revamp. Dark Zone is less of a concern to me but yes, that needs work also. It promotes check point kill farming and teams just wasting each others time of coming out, killing, dying, repeat.
You cannot please everyone and I get that but the PVP is not good. It's not terrible, but it is not good.
1. Conflict sucks
2. Everyone gets nerfed so that beautiful build you made? It’s *** in normalized arenas.
3. If you don’t run the meta in pvp you’re playing yourself unless you’re some like widdz who wrecks with anything on PC of course.
Pvp is in a terrible spot right now
1.6/1.7 TD1 PvP >> All other PvP I've experienced in a Division game. Last Stand was a lot of fun, granted some maps needed tweaks but most of them were OK.
The 8v8 in LS also helped reduce the one sided matches from time to time: stacked 4 man with 4 other randoms, especially when you split them up using the objectives, was far more balanced then just having a stacked 4 man vs 4 randoms.
