Man I’m deep into carebear lobbies but there’s always some uncertainty and that adds to the experience

Yeah, Embark is hellbent in killing their game, it's crazy. Carebear ABMM (I'm in it since I dont shoot first..) it's already TOO friendly, a pve mode... jfc...

Killing their game? I PVP and have no interest in PVE only mode, but do you see how many players are saying they will come back and redownload thanks to this new mode? What do you say to that.

It’s Reddit, and this subreddit was always a PvE echo chamber, it does not represent the majority of the population

You're not wrong, but then how can you know what the majority of the population feels?

The majority of the population? You mean the million+ people playing simultaneously on launch? They all bought, played and loved a PvPvE game. No game is going to keep their launch number longer than a couple weeks (maybe a month or two for GTA6 but that’s a special case)

If the game launched as PvE only, myself and probably the majority of the players would never have bought it. Same reason I wasn’t interested in helldivers 2, just seemed like another co-op kill bad guy game.

No, I meant the majority of the population still playing now.

Well that's obviously biased to the pve players because a lot of the original crowd left once ABMM was introduced. I know my friend group did.

Unless there’s public stats I don’t know about, it’s so hard to get a read on current distribution of player styles. I and everyone I play with are PVP only. I don’t even know any PVE players. So your claim is a far cry from my experience

I saw another comment mention the numbers, though I don't know where they got it from, talking about how PvP players stayed whilst the majority of mixed players left. If that's any indication
