A Question for You PVE Players

A lot of people often complain that pvp is ruining this game through the constant complaints and rebalancing that occurs. To a point, I agree. But, I will contend that pvp is actually saving this game. Do you really think that bungie would have put in a longer story if pvp wasn't there? Do you think activision would cease the parceling and chopping of story missions just because pvp is gone? The pve would still be just as disappointing. So, knowing that, what would you do with these unbalanced weapons? Would it really make your twelve hours of gameplay all that amazing? No. The true savior of this game is the constantly unpredictable encounters of other enemy players, otherwise, the pve is 100% predictable.

  • Don't you think it would be great if each faction had a back story and missions? Secret, stealth missions against the other factions. Faction wars? What are you doing? Grinding rep. No leaderboards. No real ties to PVE. It should be. There should be a great story there. A story for all the factions. Why did you pick your faction? I don't play PVP. I find it boring. If they had did what I just wrote? I would be in it. Bungie had a chance to hit a home run. I think they stuck out.

  • It is not PvPs fault. There is simply too much focus on PvP balance, and not on PvE enjoyment. The main problem lies in weakening things(weapons, ect.) that are used in both modes. Without the ability to feel powerful in PvE, it will be far less enjoyable. Couple that with the majority of the dev. updates pertaining to either PvP, making PvE more difficult(atheon fight) and less rewarding(queens wrath), or console exclusive goodness(badness?), and you have most PvE(Xbox especially) players looking at other game companies to fill that void( or arc, solar, ect.). Personally I still really enjoy this game, and I am hoping that things get better from here. Man can dream right?

  • Majority of Destiny players engage in PvE most of the time, only stepping into the Crucible for exotic bounties. Unfortunately, PvP players complaining about imbalance causes weapons to be useless in PvE. The PvP portion is actually losing fans due to how highly it is integrated into the game. Take a look at just about every other FPS, PvP is an add on and not nearly as required as in Destiny. They practically force players into the Crucible and that can't even save their PvP. I love the game, but there are some aspects I don't enjoy.

    Without so much energy being spent by developers on PVP there might actually be a story behind the many vendors in the tower. Some of those vendors might even be deemed expendable, since they only sell to those who participate in PVP. Without such a great PVP influence quite a few hours less time would have to be spent fixing problems with equipment used in that game style. Yes, I do believe that without PVP the entire product might very well have more of what all others expected to be there and the unpredictable enemy would not be other Guardians. PVP is not saving Destiny. Developers are working to save PVP.

  • I only play pvp when I have to for a bounty or if it's a real mmofps pvp like hopefully the next iron banner seems it will be. Having level advantages disabled makes it pointless.
