The Multi-Million Dollar Question: PvE vs. PvP

PvE

8756

PvP

1220

Please just take a minute or less of your time to participate. What is more important to you in destiny? 50/50 there are no wrong answers here! [b]Update 11/13/14 3:20EST:[/b] Over 8,000 community members have taken part in this poll and here are the results so far! [u]PvE:[/u] 8428 [u]PvP:[/u] 1174 Personally I am a big fan of PvP, but like many others I bought this game for the 'epic' storytelling and co op PvE it was advertised for. Knowing Bungie I expected a lot more from PvP in this game and currently it's just not a go to for competitive multiplayer, but I hope to see improvement in the future. I understand that many people on these forums are PvE players but there seems to be overwhelming demand for new PvE content and I hope to see a weekly update detailing the future of PvE sometime soon so we can all grind happily knowing it will pay off. To those of you who wanted to know where the 'both' option was I intended this to be a black and white question with no neutral answer, that's why the question stated what's [b]most[/b] important. If you didn't vote that's okay 8,000 other people did. This was my first post on these forums and i am very satisfied with the response, as a community we all need to keep up the constructive feedback on our ends and help the devs create a masterpiece!

    • They should add a PvP event where 20-30 players join a large map and start with nothing, finding various pieces of gear and picking one another only one remains

        I prefer PvP, but I really have to admit that in this game the PvE, for the most part, is the more skill based portion of the game. I feel bad for those who take the crucible seriously, it's like Mario Kart with guns.

      • Both. Equally. And the fact that I use the same character and gear only reinforces that. And I don't want it to go away - I love that this game let's me go from one to the other fairly seamlessly. It provides a sense of continuity that games like BF and CoD just do not.

        • The PvE is great, there's just not enough of it, and the raid is not very accessible, requiring so many people to be available at once. The PvP is fun every now and again, but it gets very old, very fast. Some things that might improve the Crucible would be more maps, more game types, and maybe a "hardcore" mode, with no radar or supers. And for crying out loud, next time the Iron Banner comes around, let us have more than one game type to play in it. I usually prefer Control, but I got a little burnt out on my way to Rank 3 in that.

            It amuses me when people complain about having PvP "forced" on them for exotic bounties and such. You could simply just [i]not do the bounty![/i] Also, how do think the people who just want to play PvP feel when they get something that "forces" them into the rather repetitive and badly written PvE content? I am not bashing PvE; it's fun enough to not mind grinding the same tasks every day to get menial rewards, but it seems to me that, as with pretty much all shooters, PvP is where the longevity and variety is.

              I'm enjoying both modes. I still dont know why people keep complaining about the shotgun use, does people remember to use their abilities in advantage? Facing off a shotgun you can accurate 1 to 3 shots in the head while making a melee attack and kill the shotgunner. It is possible, my warlock beats every each of them as i can. Also, if the guy's is hiding and waiting for you, the LAST thing to do is to approach them, in every shooter. You have action bolt drain life granades so why you have to approach?

            • PvE is how I play, it just feels to be set up better with the rewards and reputation points. To me, the co-op is just more fun. Yes, more content and variety would be nice, but even still, it's more enjoyable than the other choice. I really don't like how the crucible is set up, even with the nerfs, it's still Titans running around with shotguns, it's not fun. Also the lack of Crucible rep you get vs how much you need is laughable. It's horrendously unbalanced, and always full of people complaining about everything. It's annoying to see Bungie say: "We're listening to your feedback." So they bring out the PvP events and put the PvE events on the back-burner. Clearly, the player feedback is more geared from the PvE players, so they really aren't listening to us. [spoiler]This is clearly my opinion, you have the right to your own opinion, so don't complain about mine.[/spoiler]

            • I pick PvE because of raids. They literally have SO MUCH POTENTIAL. They just need to make bosses a lil more challenging, and add game chat to it. I just got the Tolands legacy bounty and I've been sitting in the Tiger strike Playlist and I gotta say, it's been the most fun I've had in Destiny for awhile. It's especially fun when you get two other players who stay in the same lobby with you for several games, because you start to learn how they play and you can start to work with them more effectively. Just one thing, BUNGIE PLEASE, I BEG OF YOU, FIX THE ODDS OF WHICH STRIKE YOU PLAY. Lol I say this because I played maybe 7-8 tiger strikes last night. Half, HALF of those were the Cerberus Vai strike. It's fun to play but not 4 times in a row. (Not saying this to trash the devs, just saying it because we all want it.

            • PVE all day long, I cant think of anything more boring that running around and around in circles, over and over again. Did not do a single iron banner bounty last time and wont do one this time. Was really looking forward to some content where you have to use your brain rather than more PVP crap where everyone goes round with 1 hit kills over and over and over and over again. Dont get me wrong I love destiny, I mean I really love destiny had countless arguments with the misses over playing too much countless nights of not nearly enough sleep. not been into any game like thin for a long time, but am starting to get tired of the same old thing. I know its probably easier for you to bring out new PVP content and i know its going to take time to bring out new PVE content which I eagerly await. have just got my second exotic bounty bad juju which has taken countless bounties to receive and am totally gutted im required to enter the crucible as part of the bounty. so I guess i wont be obtaining bad juju just yet instead i will be discarding this exotic bounty. but thanks for a great game Bungie this has so much potential cant wait to see whats next.

                So the official score as of right now looks to be: PvE: 4856 PvP: 650 I'm happy to see over 5000 people and growing have voted for what's more important to them I'm sure bungie has these numbers and knows this but obviously demand for PvE content is very high and hopefully we will receive a weekly update this Friday detailing some PvE information for once!

                  • Why not both? Bungie games longevity was both. PvE skulls,legendary runs & secrets.Along with PvP asymmetrical maps, forge world and better than most balanced gameplay.

                  • Funny pvpers bitch about the repetitive nature of Pve on this game. Yet pvp is one of the most repetitive things you can do. Same 5 maps getting killed by the same damn guns over and over again.

                  • This is why destiny gets so much criticism. Bungie thought it was selling to competitive shooter fans and then a bunch of people who only play RPGs bought it thinking it was something it's not. IMO you only get the best experience out of destiny if you play both. The best part of destiny is that the gear is the same for both.

                    • When I bought this game, I expected to spend most of my time in pve with some pvp mixed in to break things up. But the pve content is so limited and repetitive that I find myself spending at least 50% of my time in the crucible.

                      • PVP is a cruel joke. I go only for exotic bounties and sometimes when I'm bored and friends are playing PVP. Other than that I can't stand more than two matches of one hit kills for over half of my deaths. PVE is infinitely more fun for me. To be completely honest if I had to chose between playing CoD Ghost's multiplayer and Destiny's multiplayer I'd probably pick Ghosts and I can't describe how much I hated that game.

                        I love pve the story the role playing raids ect: i have got to the point where i am bored with destiny i have created a warlock,titan and hunter all lev 30 full raid gear except for titan that has the exotic chest.for the last week i do not know what to do i tried pvp but there is alot of lag and freeze ups plus my reactions are a lot slower than the 12 year old kids that play pvp so i stick to pve but what is there for me to do i complete the raid on all 3 chars every week on hard and gain nothing or (weapons i already have) there is no point doing the bounties because all i get is assendent shards (which i do not need) or very rarely a legendary engram which converts to assendent shards for some strange reason.The event's like defeat the spider tank is soo boring it is way to easy to kill it alone.Why can we not have heroic patrol's higher the level of the patrol the better the rewards like we do on the mission line some thing needs to be done ok the game has not been out long so we understand but destiny was suppost to be alot bigger than this but like all games now they release part of the game and then make you pay for more of the game its robbery like they do not make enough money on the game sale.but forget this give us more content!
