Would anyone else be interested in an actual "Survival Mode" in Destiny 2 one day?
I mean, it's ok that they made a Survival Mode for Crucible, but I don't think that is what people meant when they said a long time ago that they wanted a Survival Mode.
The closest we ever had to one was Prison of Elders. While it is good, it's more of an arena or a coliseum type of game mode.
What some players would like is a true PvE Survival Mode. One where we are put into an open, but also tight fitting, area where we need to fight off as much of the enemy as possible. The longer you stay, the stronger the enemy becomes and the greater the reward. Let us fight with our friends and compete with each other as we fight hoards of Fallen, Hive, Vex, Cabal, Taken, and Splicers in the new worlds of Destiny 2.
The goals are simple:
Get someone from Bungie to see this and hopefully take this into consideration.
Get, at least, 1,000 votes with the majority voting for yes.
I thank you for your time.
For the fellow lazy readers:
TL;DR [spoiler]Vote for either PvE Survival or no PvE Survival[/spoiler]
Update: I'm gratefully for all of the feedback. I can't believe that this post has gotten so much attention over night! Let's all hope that this is going to get noticed by Bungie eventually.
Also, I've noticed some confusion. A lot of comparisons are being made with the "The enemy is moving against each other" public event. Yes, the event does have a lot of enemies, but it's isn't survival. A Survival Mode in most games means that you keep fighting against never ending waves of enemies until you either all die or, in some cases, have a moment of extraction that you take up.
Update 2: Amazing! I never expected this post to get so much support! I can't believe that we already have over 1000 posts in under a day!
Thank you guys so much! I'm glad to see others feel the same.
Update 3: It's been a little over a day and this post is still getting support. Thank you everyone. I even noticed a mentor, so hopefully that means Cosmodrome or Deej will hopefully see this as well and it won't be ignored.
Also, I wish to ask that we make our comments tame and not so hateful. I respect everyone's opinion on this matter, but let's not harass others or be trolls.

I'd like a horde mode a la Gears of War 3, or even something similar to Left 4 Dead. Fight off waves, get a big tough boss every 10 waves, big reward for surviving the entire thing.
-
I would play that mode so much. Just like Halos firefight. I would love that
-
Sounds Cool.
-
With not much modifiers yes. Survival games that constantly do modifiers makes the whole thing crap if you cant play a vanilla version

2 RepliesExplorer missions where you are dropped off into one of 10 maps. Anything goes, you can either kill or help other gaurdians. Team queue/duo queue/solo queue. Teammates can revive each other. Elimination rules. Extractions occur every 30 minutes on the quarter hour (i.e. 11:15 and 11:45). You make it to an extraction at the extraction time, you leave and keep the artifacts you've accumulated. High level targets drop the artifacts. Artifacts can be turned in to the cryptarch to build exotic blueprints. Douplicates will give special cureency for special vendors. Gaurdians will drop dogtags (both their own and those they've accumulated). Dog tags are shared within team. These are turned in to Shaxx for rewards.

3 RepliesA horde mode where you defend the farm or walls of the city would be awesome Maybe they could recreate the battle of the twilight gap and make it into endless waves of Fallen
-
I'm surprised destiny doesn't have a zombies gamemode with using a poe set up or infection with the guardians that die getting infected by siva or something or becoming taken.
-
1 ReplyI personally don't like those kinds of game types because there's no chance of winning and I don't consider getting to wave 30 or whatever "winning" just "boring". BUT I think it'd be a great addition for those that want it and so long as it's not required for anything else I have absolutely no objections to it. Clearly there's a lot of people that want this game type so Bungie would be stupid not to add it as part of a DLC.

10 RepliesDoesn't really fit with the concept of why Guardians do things. We fight to reclaim humanity's lost ground. We should ideally be focused ONLY on that. We're not suicide soldiers trying to vie for who is best. We find the best fireteams are X, Y, and Z for the various scenarios.
-
Coming from someone who spends the majority of his time in PvP, I would definitely agree that implementing a mode like this is a must-have! I would definitely do this with friends!
-
This sounds döpe äf
-
If they could have it similar to the "firefight" game mode in ODST, then that'd be great. I never cares much for any of the other things in that game, but firefight was really fun.
-
Basically Halo Reach firefight
-
Yes please! Oh God, yes, yes, yes, PLEASE!
-
1 ReplyFirefight would be great in Destiny. IDK why this isn't a thing yet
-
This! When I saw that they announced a survival mode I was so excited, but then I heard it was for crucible. The crucible thing is just a slightly less severe elimination. But I would [b]LOVE[/b] a pve survival mode.
-
When in Skywatch doing your thing and the enemy would move against each other and then the dreaded urzok would appear. Or in Ishtar cliffs when the Walker would appear at the same time as the wolves or later taken. Those battles were amazing, some of my best destiny moments have been in patrol. Would love to see them incorporate more massive battles in patrol. Maybe not a survival mode but more like an invasion public event. A bit like the vex public events but on a bigger scale with some worthwhile rewards.

1 ReplyWhen they revealed PoE I thought it was gonna be a horde type, but then it wasn't
-
1 Reply92% say yes so it means Bungie will bury this thread soon. Or drop a 'we'll pass it to the developers for feedback. '
-
I would totally love to see something like this happen eventually, reminds me of the survival in division. Now that would be perfect if it were to be like that. Starting off with nothing because of a disaster and the goal is to escape while fighting off enemies and finding gear in the process, that'd be great
-
3 RepliesYou want horde mode? Go solo Urzok the Hated, while the enemy is moving against each other and a Warsat drops in. Have fun with all three at once.

Great post man 👍
-
Yes, as long as it doesn't involve only using bullet sponges. I also would like to see some kind of PvP survival mode
-
Edited by NordicSol: 7/31/2017 12:41:43 AMI'd love it if they had maybe two or three maps based upon the last city, the scenario is a group of guardians pinned down and essentially just fighting as long as they can before they're eventually overwhelmed. Say every five-ten waves, there's a round, and every round increases the loot tier. 1st round gives greens, second blues, third legendaries, and skip into fifth for a possibility at exotics? At the end of the fifth round there's some kind of scripted event that results in a wipe (that doesn't count towards death stats) and ends the mode. Afterwhich, loot is distributed accordingly. So similar to firefight in Halo, I suppose. I rather like that system.

Agreed.
