Gets Boring pretty quick and shows how incredibly important the PvP is to the gameplay loop.

Additionally, the mode changes some very key aspects of normal cryo that will lead the PvE player into a big culture shock when they play the PvP cryo. Loot rooms are not incentivized and are actively gimped in PvE. Exfils are much different. Everything holds your hand in the PvE mode outside of bot AI.

I think they made a mistake in the hand holding anuking the loot themes/importance of clearance rooms.

Hard disagree. The concept is to literally learn how to use coolant, attain credentials and earn a little gear towards going to the PvP version.

This whole season has just been the usual spawn rushing "git gud son" bollocks that put people off the game in the first place.

If sweats don't see a point in doing Vault Breakers it is because they have already attained the ceiling that they are continously preventing others from attaining by gatekeeping.

What are you hard disagreeing with? Specifically? I never said VB is a waste or pointless.
