    PVP, poor conflict, no new faces, same builds, sugestions

    Have you guys noticed that PVP conflict is a trash? It is seriously bugged after update.

    Spotter talent is now broken, you get instant cooldown once it is deployed, so in combination with on the ropes you have + 45 dmg boost right away. lol. I have nothing against the players who are using it, because it is only one useful. But this brings even worse balance than ever. These days you have absolutely no chance to win the match without the setup: bloodsucker, on the ropes, compensated 3/11/7. You can see still the same names in conflict, no new players coming, why? Because they are melted down by those with level 100 (they can play and it is ok) with bugged gear with spotter.

    The game is dying because of poor PVP. longevity of PvE content is lower than that of PvP, however, a priority is being placed on small PvE changes, which are not major enough to maintain a player base, or recapture those that have left, while the PvP side of the game is pushing away an increasing number of the players who currently stick with the product. PvE normally has an expiration date unless constantly expanded. Right now division 2 is losing players from both groups.

    To be honest EPISODE 2 is realy poor. 2 new main missions and something they called expedition... realy? How can someone call it "episode"

    Sugestion:

    Make the PVP playable
    Set the PVP ranking to avoid that high experienced players play against newbies. Let the good players play against good players etc.
    build variantions, balancing. NOw everyone is using the same build setup or very similar
    avoid hip firing
    add new systems, find the inspiration in Destiny 2.
    add some bounties for completion of match in conflict and so on.
    Any other suggestion?

    Forgive flr saying this since everytime i went to DZ in division 1, except really early in that game life, i would have the same issue as i found here with, use this build or get killed by people running this build. I mean i really like the idea of normalization but i dont feel like it actually bringing players to the same level in PVP in terms if gear so the best one wins, its just people abusing it flaws to make OP PVP builds creating the same problem original game had.

    There’s no build diversity in the division 2. Especially when it comes to the weapons. It’s been like that since the first game, most run the meta build and weapons and call it a day.

    Spotter doesn’t have an instant cooldown, I have my spotter build I’ve had since launch and the change to skill cooldowns is what makes it seem like it’s instant but I have a 13 second cooldown and I know if you spec super heavy in CDR you can get it down to 6 seconds.

    My issue with pvp not even the balance but the tankiness of some players that can also shred you on top of having a some level of skill power / cooldown.

    I firmly believe that if you spec heavy into one area you should suffer in the others. But the way this game is setup you can still do everything like Superman even though you spec 11 or 12 in one area smh

    The only issue with PVP Conflict with TU5 update is the PING/LAG issues across all servers.

    West Coast it is especially bad, bullet registration and hit registration is a full 1-2 seconds behind, needs urgent attention.

    Only happened with TU5 update.

    How do you know this? The reason "why," I mean.

    I don't get the complaints about "diversity." Why do you care what builds others are using? Serious question.

    Your spot on . The ping and lag is very bad . I am central. I have a modem that gives me the highest speed I can get with the highest internet package and it sometimes is 1-3 seconds delayed damage . My friends even have these problems. As for pvp it needs a mega revamp which will involve gear,weapons,skills,server fixes ,new game modes ,darkzone revamp, darkzone player cap to be brought up . I dont see this being finished till PS5 is out lol . If they came out right away with good pvp we wouldnt of lost so many players . Pve is a bore
