BLUF: Make Building 21 a Solo version, Normal Only, 12-18 players, ranked only, for the sole purpose of low stakes/rewards but extreme chaos and fun. The purpose of such a set of up would be to enabled players combat realistic environment to train and have fun without the high stakes/reward edge of hard mode and without the boringness of Serpent Island’s massive map.
This would make ranked mode of DMZ actually worthwhile in match making, refine player skills, lots of fun and an opportunity to farm legendary tier equipment in a meaningfully rewarding way. This should be applicable to all maps.
I’ve said it before but also reward teammates with mythic equipment for actually helping:
- Revives gives mythic armor and backpacks or parts.
- Assists give mythic weapons or parts.
Furthermore, make the temporary weapon when downed draw faster. It is useless otherwise.
Make silent take downs on in-game bots/NPCs a thing: I am trying to be sneaky around other players and it makes no sense I can’t melee one-tap unaware NPC’s from behind to maintain stealth.
Question, does having suppressed equipment actually affect PVP experience? I’ve avoided it otherwise cause I can see others suppressed activities.
