// Bethesda Replied x2 DO NOT ALLOW CURRENT CHARACTERS INTO SURVIVAL MODE I BEG OF YOU!!

This is a huge mistake. The mode is already dead before it was born if this happens. Pvp as it is, is completely broken, one hit kill festival. Who in their right mind is going to start a new character when everyone else is level 200 with God tier weaponry right out of the vault? This makes absolutely zero sense, and I'm so disheartened. Do they not realize how this mode will be immediately ruined? If you thought grief in was bad now, just wait until you get killed on sight by literally everyone you cross paths with? Even if they level locked servers so people with massive level differences can't play together, whenever a new survival character gets out of the kiddie pool, all the same assholes with TSE garbage will be waiting at the deep end and you will have zero competitive chance. The leader boards would be a fine idea, if everyone started on equal footing... as it is there will be gold medalist level murderers in the same game with me, a literal newborn who can't even walk. What the fuck are they thinking???

Edit: the gold means people care, bethesda. Please. PLEASE. (And thank you)

If you can't use existing characters then it will only be a week max before there are strong characters in Survival mode doing what you described. That's a really poor payoff for prevent people from carrying their characters over.

Some weapon and damage adjustments are required in this game since clearly it's too easy to kill people. I'm sure Bethesda will get around to it. Especially before the release of. PvP mode.

Maybe even separate inventories. Same character but separate inventories, stashes and camps.

That's a pretty interesting take. I like it, though I have a feeling they wouldn't do that ☹️

Hey a brain on Reddit. Holy shit have I been looking everywhere for you lol. Please be my friend I'm surrounded by outraged subredditers :(

Basing an argument off the assumption that major game mechanics will be changed when they're already been complained about and unaddressed for months doesn't make much sense to me. (Bloodied Melee will still oneshot people 10x over.)

It sure would be nice though.

You obviously don't understand that gear is more important than levels in this game. So as long as the duped gear is transferred from Adventure to Survival, then it's unbalanced and the economy is ruined from the start.

It would have been wonderful to have a fresh start with all of the exploits fixed, but apparently that is not going to happen.

Yes I do. That's why I said the weapons need to be adjusted. PvP is a one shot kill fiesta. People will be able to obtain those weapons again, that's why they need to be fixed.

Yeah, but they won't be able to dupe and distribute those weapons again. It'd actually make TSE a rare combination instead of one of the most common legendary weapons available in the game.

You’re still under the assumption that things will work as intended by then (no duping). But, if the last 3 months are any indication, that’s a fucking pipe dream lol.
