    DZ- just not fun + empty + quality of life

    Hi guys, 1 out of 20 times we get decent action in DZ, servers are empty most of the time, I dont think brackets matchmaking upcoming fix will improve on things for several reasons.

    I simply cant understand why fixing matchmaking takes 3 months???

    1) You can roam for hours without seeing another player
    2) 12 player limit is garbage
    3) 3 DZ's canibalize each other , I am not sure are all on same server because if i switch from DZ east to West and then later go back to east its still the same server.


    Not to mention its not fun to play with current TTK, clunky and slow movements, being stuck on invisible objects, not too well thought off zone in first place, super hard to navigate and have decent fights, fights are boring and 99% repetitive, too many NPC;s around, sometimes you get 3-4 patrols plus landmark... , turrets are huh, OP , rogue status and disavow is crap...

    Well, lets see next patch but even in worst times in DIV 1 you cold get decent action and 24 players on server. Give us a roadmap on DZ pls

    I dont mind even having one purely PVE zone if thats what people want but give us decent option for PVP, none of the streamers are happy, they are all quitting and for a reason, its not fun and its empty...

    I would prefer bigger PVP zone , more players per server with similar to old DIV 1 rogue rules, kill the turrets and give us force fields, easier option for server switching so we can find action.

    Improve interfaces, inventory management is very poorly done, seriously, 100 mod slots that we cant use and try out coz skills attribute sucsk, my stash is always full, my inventory is full in few hours of play, and then tiresome cleanup, it is simply annoying and nothing is getting fixed, you cant roll items because you are waiting for patch, rolling sucks, give us an option to extract talents and attributes at least. I dont understand why are devs against this.... I guess they dont play at all...

    Game should be fun and we shouldn't be spending too much time every day micro managing 350 items ...

    Now we are getting delays with new update, i could care less about raid unless it has unique reward and it will be probably 1-2 time let's finish this mission as well thing.

    I understand people like PVE, well, you have a lot already. It is time to improve on PVP and not force anyone to play it if they dont want.

    Just asking for same as many others PVP-ers, give us a better option and roadmap.

    Ps4 dz's always have people and i find them eay more dynamic than dz1. They could increase the number of players, and add blueprint drops, that would really add a ton of fun to dz loot.

    what WT are you? this is so weird, i connect mostly to US east servers, 95% of time super empty no matter what i do, i would then matchmake several times and very rarely i get busy server, search goes for hours, .... As i said matchmaking is terrible, switching DZ doesnt help as it looks its same server, maybe somehow they screwed limit for 3 zones combined....

    I dont get it why not one big DZ with PVE and PVP option and 30-ish players then...

    btw, remove granade launcher from DZ @@

    Ran around for about an hour this weekend in the ODZ and never saw one person. I think i can give credit to my DZ playtime hours as it was 5 in the morning which i imagine is when the red bulls and monsters are wearing off and the all nighters are going to bed. My buddies went in the night before after i went to bed and they said they got continuously murdered by some dude with a pistol who never took any damage. you just never know in there i guess.
