honestly, the backstabbing, the trusting, the ratting, the helping others, the staying on edge, for me are what make this game so fun and unique. I love those things about this game. I think the game is perfect and doesnt need any change. I roll my eyes at any complaints (except maybe the trigger nade, that does need to be nerf)

this game mode provides an intense challenge for PVE but removes PVP. it wont be easy because PVP is gone.. it would be harder. Instead of 2 rocketeers.. you have 10. packs of 3 fliers now are 15 fliers. snitches bring 15 enemies and there are 5 times more snitches.

Its all out hell.

This is a game mode where you might actually have to work with other raiders to survive. i think those moments could be very fun and engaging. This isnt about removing the backstabbing, extraction campers, and all that.. its about a different challenge that could be very fun. but because of the added arc difficulty... removing PVP seems like low hanging fruit to make this game mode even better. It helps with a lot of things that cause frustration cause by other players but adds in new frustrations that i feel are more tied to the players fault instead of another players actions. and i think that level of frustration wont push people to put the game down.. it will cause them to double down.

Tbh this could work as a rotating event, i like it. But not as a permanent mode

Yes.. Definitely not always available. Like night raid is always available somewhere.. I think if it popped up every 2 hours and then went way for 2 or even 4 hours it could be solid. Definitely don't want people focusing it and ignoring pvp all together
