Is this more for the PvE or the PvP?

[DRIPWOOD]

I'm trying to find a good game I can solo.

[Dark, House of Luck]

The game has a lot of solo able stuff for PvE, but the highest end content is really designed for premade fireteams of 3 or 6 players.

Definitely the PVE coop or solo

[AllergicToBrainRot]

both. I mostly play pve as i dislike it's pvp. It's not terrible just not for me. It's better to join fireteams for strikes, nightfalls, raids(8 players). You can create or join a clan. There's an app called destiny 2 companion where you start up fireteams for people to join ect. it's very useful.

Game is definitely focused around co-op PvE. There is a fair amount of solo PvE content but you will probably burn through it quickly. The PvP... oh ♥♥♥♥, I'm gonna catch some flack for saying this.. is not great. Coming from someone who has played lots of FPS games over the last 30 years, the deathmatch is not ideal. Not wanting to dump on the devs, far from it, but the issue is the actual impossibility of balancing dozens of class abilities and thousands of weapons. Got perfect movement and perfect aim? Well tough titty coz your opponent has grinded for 1000 hours for the perfect loot combo and will one shot you from across the map with a pistol.

Okay dude it's not THAT bad. The differences between most rolls (aside from maybe the main perks) are not noticeable by 90% of the population.

I'll agree that the pvp is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tier, but it's really not that bad. A lot of it is movement and aim. Occasionally a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on the sticks gets an aim assist headshot with a sniper but that's about the only issue. The only time grinding really matters is Trials because light advantage is enabled.

I solo pve and co-op and I have fun and can achieve most of the goals I want to reach.
If you are a completionist or want some of the rarer (better?) gear and weapons you will have to do pvp and join raids with a group (no matchmaking) for endgame content.

i appreciate all the feedback, this sounds like something that would work for me so I'm going to avoid the PvP and stick to the PvE content. Ill check out the app and look into joining others when the time comes. Thanks to all that responded, this was a big help for me :)

I wouldn't avoid PvP entirely. Doing the dailies at least is a good way to get some resources and such and the weapons from PvP aren't bad. The biggest tip? Just don't take it seriously. The game's PvP more or less autoplays itself based on the weapon you're using, so just aim and fire, the bullets do the rest.
