lvl 45 paladin.

Seriously....just here trying to figure out what this game is. Seems as if it is a Single player RPG shooter....with multiplayer outside of the campaign?

.............for the most part. The campaign is co-op, and the dark zone is PvP + PvE.

Ahhhh so borderlands. Guess ill pass. Solid concept though. I enjoy Clancy PvP, but do not like the idea of PvE in this dark zone. Was a turn off in Titanfall.

From what I read in the subreddit, the AI in the higher level DZ is extremely challenging and supposedly a very rewarding experience.

It's not a straight up MP environment like in Titanfall. Kind of the same set up like with the main city, but now you have other players running around, possibly helping, possibly trolling. You run around and find loot, but since it's in the "Dark Zone", it's infected and can't just be taken out. So anything you find has to be extracted, and this happens at designated points across the map. Call it in, wait 1:30 for a chopper to show up, when it does it drops a line that you can attach your stash to, and it takes it away, "cleans" it, and it ends up in your storage back at HQ. Tricky part of that whole process is other players showing up to an extraction point and not knowing if they'll mind their own business or start attacking so they can take your gear.

Just something about "shooting" AI. Sure killing a Titan Extreme for the first time is rewarding but its different. When i shoot i want to make sure it is another player at the other end. I would be okay with a TDM type play and the winning team gets to roll on loot. Maybe higher chance to obtain better loot if you score better. Maybe a free for all with rewards for finishing Top 3 or something.

everyone pretends to be friendly fighting the NPCs but once some good loot drops, trust no one

people will betray, lie, kill, and steal your shite and not think twice about it. they may even say they are sorry... but they aren't.

1) kill the short-range/melee enemies first. Your whole squad could be in trouble if they penetrate your position.

2) As the enemy pushes forward, fall back. As the enemy falls back, push forward. Map control is the fifth soldier in your squad.


Those are both huge

5 threads going on it right now. Hard to say who dominates. I'd say PS4.



Another cool little nuance strategy to extraction is the decision to call your own or use someone else's. In the beta, Gardoki and I had that debate often. We can call in our own and wait for a minute and a half, or this guy has one already on the way and we'd only need to wait 0:45. But the problem with that is you don't know what you're running into. Is this guy cool, or were there more people there and he just took them out for their crap?

One thing I'm not fully understanding...

Let's say I have:
a level 6 holster that has 31 armor
or a level 11 holster that has 20 armor

Which one is better to have?

When I played with devious there were no decisions to make. He attacked everyone.

I'd say level 6, but typically you also have to factor attributes into it. Haven't played anything but the beta so I can't remember if gear even has this, but straight up armor, the 6, but if the other gives you more secondary ammo or 15% faster reload or something like that, that's something you might want to take into consideration.

Not playing it, but not because I didn't like it. I liked it a lot.
