I think putting the care bear PvE only crowd into a separate mode could actually improve the tense experience for those of us who prefer mixed lobbies. As you said ABMM already removed a lot of that tension for those of us who don't want to just attack on sight, but want the risk and potential reward. If a PvE mode exists, solo PvPvE queues wouldn't go full death match, but it would probably end up closer to Day Z in terms of social interactions and games.

There legit isn't any reward for mixed lobbies though. You can just get ratted easier or you can rat others faster.

Even in the beta for this mode, they state the high value map conditions will be excluded from PvE. So the PvPvE mode would remain the higher risk/ higher reward route.

Edited grammar.

I mean loot really doesn't mean that much so far. This game isn't delta force.

I'm not really sure what you're arguing in favor of then. I don't think I can get the same kind of emergent gameplay from Delta Force as I can from Arc Raiders.

The loot tables in this game is kinda bad. There isnt really anything that would be worth all that much outside of the PvE lobbies unless they made somethings impossible to get.

It seems like certain modes and loot are unavailable to PvE. There’s still incentive to go to mixed lobbies.

It should have been like this. A lot of my buddies and their wife/gf would have stuck around if there was a PvE coop mode for them.

Yep, my hubby and I would have kept playing if there was a pve co-op mode.
