If you want PVE DMZ, just go play Arc Raiders. Now before you get mad- I'm not saying this as some cheeky dig at PVE players. I genuinely mean it. The games are so similar that there can now be a distinct line between them. DMZ is PVP, Arc is PVE. They can coexist now and cater to both sides of the same coin. If you haven't tried DMZ, it borrows so much DNA from Arc it's crazy. Once you start seeing the similarities, they become impossible to miss. Crows now fly over dead operators like a raider flare. You can get a trait to craft items while in raid. 4 basic components are the foundation of all crafting like fabric, rubber, plastic, and metal parts. Sound familiar? Survival and Smoke augments from Arc now basically exist as traits in DMZ. The 'Die Hard' trail let's you crawl forever while downed and auto call the exfil when you get close enough. In DMZ drones fly overhead like snitches and wasps. Giant helicopters and tanks patrol like rocketeers and bombadiers. Even small things like valuables having a diamond symbol similar to trinkets. You can spam free loadouts. The list just goes on and on. I never played the first DMZ, but I jumped in and basically knew how to play the new DMZ because I have 500 hours on Arc. Does DMZ have it's own unique aspects? Of course. But the similarities are pretty undeniable at this point. When arc pulled half a million concurrent players last November other developers definitely took notice. So yes, if you want PVE just play Arc Raiders. Arc is already moving aggressively to PVE and the recent PVE test had some strong results. PVP is likely a lost cause in Arc now. Don't force PVE in DMZ, too.
