A Serious Problem for Some Players.

It's Saturday and other than running the Vanguard bounties, the Daily Heroic, and a few Public Events, there's nothing to do if you don't play PVP. I hit the Vanguard 100 mark limit 2 days ago so there's no point in pursuing that. Before everyone jumps me out for not going into the Crucible, allow me to explain why I don't play PVP anymore. I started playing PVP with the original Unreal Tournament in 1998. That was 16 years ago and my reflexes had already slowed down to the point where I was barely competitive. Now, at 68-years-old, it's just not real enjoyable having my a$$ handed to me over and over again by a gaggle of testosterone fueled teenagers. I get through the Nightfall and the Weekly Strike at level 28 by playing smart, not by being a gunfighter. In the last two days I've helped a couple of other players get though the Nightfall and the Weekly, but it does get old after a bit. Five other players were gracious enough to allow me to tag along on the Atheon portion of the Raid on normal. It's the first time since release that I've had the opportunity to try the Raid. I know you're not going there, but match-making would be nice even if it's just for limited periods of time. I suppose the bottom-line is: Give us something to do that is infinitely repeatable. A simple XP reward would be more than adequate. The best suggestion I've seen so far is some type of Horde Mode that allows players with different skill sets and physical abilities the opportunity to participate in a meaningful way. (By the way, the Queen's Wrath was a great outlet to extend the day for PVE players.) Please understand that I love the game and want it to succeed mightily. I just don't want to sit forever at 29 with no path forward other than the Raid which remains a limited opportunity. Continually spinning one's wheels simply destroys the incentive to stay with the game. Thanks for listening! Toonces T. Cat

  • [quote]I get through the Nightfall and the Weekly Strike at level 28 by playing smart, not by being a gunfighter.[/quote] Do you want to elaborate on that . I find trying to be smart hasn't helped me a great deal because I can't get used to some of the game dynamics, specifically enemy spawning. Enemy spawning always catches me in the wrong place at the wrong time. I try to be careful and I clear an area before moving into it, great it's clear so I move in and boom I'm surrounded by a dozen plus enemy. That other mechanic I don't like is when you do die and then re-spawn at the last check point without your ammo so now you are forced to repeat the exercise under more difficult circumstances. Appreciate any tips you might have.
