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.

33 RepliesEdited by GX: 7/31/2017 1:42:24 AMMy idea of a "survival" mode in Destiny 2 would be an open PvP mode within the Patrol Destinations. It would be similar to the Division's Survival DLC which is kinda like a pseudo battle-royal mode where all players start with nothing and have to scavenge for gear/weapons from chests & AI enemies while being wary of the other enemy players until all the players kill each other leaving the winner. This type of PvP interests me much more than Crucible. It's got a level of tension that is currently non-existent in arena multiplayer, I'm so damn bored of arena multiplayer modes at this point. I'm glad battle-royal has come in to freshen up the stale ass arena multiplayer genre. A "PvE Survival" is just Prison of Elders so that doesn't excite me.

Yes! I haven't played a survival mode since L4D.
-
Horde mode for defending The Farm would be awesome.
-
Not interested.

5 RepliesLame. Zombies was fun for about 2 days, then got boring.

3 RepliesIf they could take the Gears of War Horde mode put it in the city they would have something to keep us busy while we are in content droughts.

1 ReplyThat sounds like fun. Put a weekly scoreboard on it and we have a competitive PvE mode.
-
1 ReplyHonestly it's been done to death in games...I'd really rather see more interesting and creative game modes. Granted it would be fun for a while, but I hope they put their efforts into something new and different.

7 RepliesI could see horde/survival mode only working with Hive. Players coming across a spawning pit of untold size and depth. I cant see anything like this making sense for the other factions. On the inverse, a more accurate survival mode could exists. A planet with pockets of light, that deplete with use and time. All things here are stuck on the planet and gathering/stealing resources to stay alive until rescue is the only objective. The longer you survive and the more resources you gather/steal, the better the reward. I imagine it playing out like lone wolf from reach.

6 RepliesEdited by VersaceSamurai: 7/30/2017 11:04:27 PMCompletely off-topic, but do we have to re-pre-order to get the new exotic or how does that work? Also I wanted to use a lot of hyphens.

Both pve and pvp survival , keep everyone happy. Both in a 1 random patrol region

1 ReplyYou'll have to wait tell Destiny 5 when we'll have space battles just like the good old Decent day's.
-
God yes

1 ReplyWhat exactly would be the best reward doing a game mode so old and overused (sometimes fun why not)? An exotic weapon or armor maybe? They made some new weapons but it's not like we have 90 weapons and 200 exotic armors, ya know. Oh wait, a banner maybe? Oh please

Edited by 10mm Socket (Timelost): 7/30/2017 10:52:29 PMI could see a game mode where the cabal have blocked all of the guardians transmat abilities and you have to survive until a boss comes or you destroy the local source of the Jammer. The Vex could do the same and the Fallen could have found Golden Age weapons (Tanks/Armored 4x4) onboard the crashed colony ships on Nessus and used Siva to make them theirs, so you would be sent on a SnD mission to destroy the weapons.

3 RepliesSees OG's post...has Halo Reach flashbacks... (Sounds good tho!)
-
Though they would have to rename it as they already have a "Survival Mode" game type in pvp. Bungie just has to make things so minuscule as names be annoying.
-
1 ReplyI've wanted this for a while, every round is a different enemy with every 10 rounds (or 5) have an ultra/boss of the enemy your facing. No special buffs (to begin with...) No cannons or 'gifts' No ammo boxes Just you and a horde of enemies [spoiler]BUMP[/spoiler]

1 ReplyArchons forge? Court of oryx?

3 RepliesI'd love this, limit revives to only 5, can join up to 12 players, every 20th wave have a boss fight, after the boss fight a modifier drops for the next wave, i.e. infinite power ammo, super cooldown 50% more, etc. Allow health regen but only to put health, once shield is gone it stays gone (outside of a modifier) when revived, you stay at th3 health Mark, no shield as your attempting to stay alive not be revived. This goes until you all perish. The higher the wave, the higher the rewards, with each boss having a chance for exotic drops.

Bump.

If you look at the new director menu, there's a hexagonal thing on the top left. Im wondering if that's a thing we will unlock that's similar to what we are talking about here.
-
1 ReplyI thought that's what we were getting? Saw about 10+ thumbnails in my YouTube feed saying that there's a survival mode.
-
We asked for this back in 2015. Bungie still don't give a -blam!-.

So, horde?
