PvP Thoughts (in general)

Suggestion

Hello fellow agents, Before i start writing down my thoughts i juat wanna reassure you guys that i am one of you beautiful bastards that i am trully hyped about the game and that's the reason why i am writing this post- because i want the hype of mine to continue till the launch and beyond!

Now, i don't want to talk about PvE and grinding for loot or end-game content. I just want to publish all my thoughts around PvP (not about the bugs, glitches, exploits because they are probably going to be fixed. Now as all of you may know by other RPG Games (ex. WoW even if its not a shooter RPG) the main reason of playing pve and grind that loot or doing the Raid kind of thing is because you want to earn the best gear of the game so you can go on PvP and own the whole thing!

The thing is that on The Division i kinda feel that PvP is somehow separated from PvE and that it has not a big connection with it. For example i really want to see the fear on those low level nooba facing me on DZ when i am all dressed up with End Game gear while they are not.

Whatelse is mostly important for me is that on WoW for example there is a ranking system and i would really love to see this on The Division. That would make the DZ a place more competitive for everyone and you would not dare going there alone.

I mean it's all really good in the DZ, hunting down the Rogues all help the others extract their loot or even be the Bad guy at the first place....but.... What if we grind that thing for hours or maybe days and then we get sick of it? Then we won't have anything else to do with our fancy and powerful end game gear! I mean it will surely help us against the NPCs so we can kill them Faster or defend ourselves better but still what about the gear involvement in the DZ?

Some other suggestiona i would have are :

  1. Clan Wars in the DZ ( maybe with matchmaking 4 groups of 4 or sth)
  2. Game modes like TDM that you just have to kill the others
  3. Daily or Weekly missions/bounties for the DZ with extra rewards

Now to conclude i really liked the difference between the Division pvp and others' games pvp and thats sth i respect but i heard from many of my friends on the first day of the beta that they are kinda bored of hunting down rogues amd extracting random-dropped loot. I think the bighest disadvantage of it sofar is the lack of Objectives! A motive to play and grind the whole thing.

Thanks for reading my thoughts and i really hope i'll be wrong about the whole PvP thing amd enjoy it at launch! Fellow agent "Novaronus" out!

P.S : i know that we have only seen the Beta and my thoughts are only reffering to the time between closed and open beta. I am just transfering my thoughts hoping i will get some answers of you guys and changing my mind and getting super-hyped again
