While CIG continues to ignore the ever-present PvE vs. PvP debate and avoids making any clear statements, the widely praised and successful Dune sets a strong example. In a recent official post, the Creative Director made it clear that PvP will be scaled back in favor of PvE. Here are some of his statements. https://duneawakening.com/de/news/a-message-from-the-creative-director-on-pve-and-pvp/ I would love to hear something similar from CIG, even when its different from my opinion. Then everybody can choose to stay or leave. Note: I think (never played Dune but will be after this article) the often mentioned "Deep desert" was a PvP-only zone and until now the only wa to get top-tier endgame gear. Similar to the Contested zones in SC. we want PvE players to be able to play the endgame and have access to the content of the endgame Yes, please. In spite of the fact that I can go there I'm in fact I'm act ruled out of most of the new content because of Griefers and dominating PvP-Orgs. Our goal is not to force PvE players to interact with a PvP system that they may have no interest in. I have no interest in PvP. When In don't want to PvP SC locks me out Some areas of the Deep Desert will now be flagged as “Partial Warfare (PvE), while the deepest parts of the Deep Desert will remain as they currently are – high reward, high risk areas Yes, please the same for parts of Pyro which is similar to the "Deep Desert". The reality is that players are reporting being cut out of the endgame due to the extremely competitive nature of the Deep Desert Yes, finally someones admits this. CIG, what are you saying? Starting soon, some areas of the Deep Desert will now be flagged as “Partial Warfare (PvE)” areas where players will be able to explore testing stations and harvest T6 resources without the threat of conflict they may not want. Yes, let us aquire top-gear through PvE The intended dynamic of Deep Desert PvP in Dune: Awakening is that – unless you really mess up – you always have the option to retreat in good order with whatever you’ve managed to claim so far. MM makes retreating harder without shield in Nav mode. PvP should happen when both parties decide they want to fight over a location. You made my day!
