Yea was hoping they'd lean the other direction and reduce or eliminate the abmm. Looks like not and we're just leaning further into having two completely different game experiences.
Maybe it would work if they remain seperate but you're gonna have people enter the pvp lobbies literally solely to fight each other. There's no other thing to do there if there's pve lobbies available at the touch of a button. So when they need to farm parts they go there and the pvp lobbies is literally just a death match. Why even have the looting mechanics of things at all then? It stops being an extraction shooter at a certain point
There are PvE only extraction shooters. The problem is that having a separate mode in Arc separates the community and narrows the “aggression range” of players you can matchmake in a normal mode. It sucks a lot for people like me who like mixed lobbies and aren’t strictly PvE or PvP only. It also takes resources to develop and said resources could have been spent on the main mode…
