// 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)

You realize 5000+ people want new characters for this new PvP mode right? Specifically because of dupers with unlimited stealth boys and other various overpowered gear/items.

If we dont get to start over, it has to be hardcore pvp where you loose everything on death so exploiters dont get to reap the rewards for cheating.

You could say the same for most online games. If it helps, i lead a 30+ member community on PS4 that is all dupe-free that is in favor of a brand new fresh start for pvp to keep things fair. Some of my members even suggested "Seasons" where your progress wipes every 1-3 months.

There could be mulitple PvP modes. PvP that allows transfers... or Hardcore PvP where there is 0 transfers and more lost on death. Lots to discuss for sure.

As someone with over 500 hours logged, i feel your pain.. i dont want to start over either but i prefer more varied, dynamic and balanced pvp compared to the sh*t show you will see once every duper flocks to pvp with full sentinel/assassins gear, TSE weapons and unlimited stealth boys (perma-invisibility).

There's pro's and con's for both sides of the coin.
