As this tweet says, there will be not more update to DMZ from now on. What are your thoughs?

DMZ is now the only reason why I play this, but we all know that the last season came without new content for this mode.

I think they're going to let this mode die so they can sell the game to people who wants something similiar with the new zombies mode.

uh you're confused on multiple points.

let me start with this: unlocking weapons is NOT useless, because unlocking them in DMZ unlocks them for use in other game modes.

you can literally bypass the challenges for the guns like getting so and so amount of kills with the lachman this or that to unlock another lachman, you can literally just extract the guns you don't have unlocked yet and you will be able to use them in MP and customize them.

same with the current battlepass guns, don't have them unlocked yet in the BP?

just have someone drop the gun for you in DMZ.

this was literally the ENTIRE POINT of DMZ from the developers point of view, missions and such are just added to keep you from getting bored.

if you have finished the missions, you have finished the game that is DMZ.

that's it.

im sorry you're so upset that a free game isn't a full premium title.

and btw, i absolutely love DMZ, max exfil streak is somewhere in the late 20s and have literally gotten every calling card for the mode.

i played tarkov originally, that game still wipes the floor with DMZ but again, DMZ is a free to play game.

premium titles such as MW3 will not have an affect on its development other than possibly adding the new weapons they add to the current launcher so that people who don't own MW3 can unlock the new weapons, although that may not even happen and only the new MW2 weapons may be added.

we don't know because Activision hasn't said anything yet regarding the subject, just that MW3 won't give DMZ an update which if you knew that DMZ was a separate game altogether you would have already came to that conclusion.

You can unlock those guns in other modes, that's not a DMZ exclusive.

Bypass the challenges? What challenges? The ones that ask you to kill like 100 operators with headshots that are nearly impossible to get in DMZ and you can get easy in MP? The mode it's good to level up the weapons, that's true, but nothing else and also you can level up the weapons on MP easy too, so...

The BP guns, not releated to DMZ, cause you can level up the BP playing any mode, that's not even a thing in this conversation.

DMZ is a GaaS mode, like Battle Royale, you can't finish it or at least you shouldn't given the nature of the mode.

ffs dude IT'S A FREE VERSION FOR THOSE WHO DON'T OWN THOSE OTHER MODES WTF IS YOUR DAMAGE?

the challenges you bypass are the ones you need to unlock said guns.

like how the tempus torrent requires 25 doublekills* with marksman rifles before you can unlock it, you can literally bypass all 25 of those doublekills* by simply extracting the gun in DMZ and it will be unlocked in every game mode.

DMZ was literally ADVERTISED as a way to UNLOCK GUNS in a FREE TO PLAY PVPVE environment.

idk what your problem is but you clearly have reading comprehension problems.

when i said that the DEVELOPERS CREATED THIS MODE WITH THAT IN MIND i wasn't saying the only point for DMZ was to extract guns.

in the developers POV, that's literally the entire point of the game mode. - it is simply a free option to unlock guns, the missions and tasks and such are just things to keep you from getting bored if you play it exclusively.

a FREE GAME that you can use to UNLOCK GUNS you would otherwise have to play multiplayer to get.

and to clarify ONCE MORE: if you finish all of the missions for each faction YOU HAVE COMPLETED DMZ.

all that is left to do is player kill which for some reason is something dirty to do in a pvp game?

i just wanna know @DeanW, do you really not know that you can extract guns to unlock them or something?

why do you think there's posts every so often where people are asking for DMZ drops where people will drop them the crossbow or something?

because DMZ extracted weapons unlock the weapons in your MP profile, you don't have to unlock them by completing the challenge.

that's why each unlockable gun says under its challenge "or extract weapon from DMZ"

[Shaken_Widow]

for instance: do you have any guns you have not unlocked yet?

if so i can literally drop them for you in DMZ and you will unlock them and never need to complete the challenge.

that's what DMZs main purpose is, the missions are just filler and thinking they're going to continue updating a free game thats entire purpose is based on the extraction of weapons to unlock them, (again that's the developers reason for the mode not yours as a gamer,) is crazy.

Yeah, I'm not reading all that crap just to read the same over and over again.

you didn't read any of it to begin with. - like i said you lack in reading comprehension skills

DMZ is for unlocking weapons without having to do the challenges for the unlock.

you tried to say that DMZ doesn't do anything to unlock or bypass challenges but it does.

don't have the crossbow unlocked?

get someone to drop it for you in DMZ.

that's literally the ENTIRE point of DMZ from the developers perspective.

TTK in DMZ is insane, way to many revive kits, weapons do so low dmg that we fell like we play paintball. If they wont change this atleast how it was wz1 with 1 shoot 1 kill on head the mode is going to die, everyone got bored already, the game now is like this:

down, revive, down, revive, down, revive, kill, revive, down, revive, down, revive
down, revive, down, revive, down, revive, kill, revive, down, revive, down, revive
down, revive, down, revive, down, revive, kill, revive, down, revive, down, revive
run, run, run, revive, run, run run, revive, run, run, run

The felling is more like a running game then a combat game.
RPG dont even down ppl
C4 dont even down ppl or blow cars
Semtex dont even down ppl
Nado dont even down ppl

More then this ppl run with semtex sticked on their helmet shooting back

When the devs will realize that they need to fix those mistakes then maybe the DMZ mode will still have a chance for survive or atleast they could add also a hardcore mode for dmz as it was the hardcore mode on mp.

For me and most of my friend DMZ is over, we did every single thing that was possible and we got bored to run 15 min after somebody who have stealth vest and scuba mask to kill him just because we cant do 1 hit, we hit him over 30 times in this whole running crap and he still is able to run, swim, replate, survive etc.

I saw you post the exact same thing in multiple posts, and you may be right, that's what someone will think at first.

To someone that plays a lot of DMZ and sees how most of people play DMZ, I understand your problem, or at least I think so, cause I see a lot of people playing like DMZ is BR or MP, and it's not.

The problem is, and I see a lot of players making this kind of mistakes, most of players just take a good high position and snipe all the time, that doesn't work when you're against a full team, maybe against a solo. I always say my team to rush, cause if you snipe from a distance and don't move from that position, yes, that's what happens.

Yes, you can kill without putting you in danger with sniper, but they're gonna revive each other over and over, that's why that "strategy" is ♥♥♥♥ and can't understand why a lot of players do it, then I rush, cause it's the right thing to do if you wanna win in a fight, my team left me rush alone, I die, then they die cause opposite team rush them.

So, if you don't want things like you say to happen, learn to rush. And besides that, it's important to understand that this is a team-played mode, you're not gonna last if each member of your team don't give a ♥♥♥♥ and go by his/her own. I say that cause feels so good when a team is well compenetrated and things go well, you can easy blow up a team in seconds if you do this.

I know very well everything you say, i have 2k hours on DMZ, i have a positive K/D, but i still fell like i shoot with paintball weapons, i still think that selfrevive kits shound be something very rare, i still think that you can be revived only once not over and over.

I know, and I can understand that. But I think there's a reason for all of that.

If you teamplay you barely use selfrevives, cause your own team revives u. Self revives are good for solo players, and it's alredy hard to play solo, let them have a little help lol

The only possible scenario where selfrevive could be a problem is in fights with another team, cause yes, you can down one of them and meanwhile you try to kill the other they can selfrevive, that's why you should always kill them, not let them in the ground. If you do that, selfrevives are useless.

In my case, when I down some player I thrown them semtex to assure they stay in the ground if I'm not near them to kill them.

Exactly! Yes, They can leave it untouched. They should have stopped "fixing" it before they removed the ability to have a 6-man platoon.

With this post, I'm confident that they will atleast continue it's beta in some form and hopefully we'll see a full release one day but you cannot rush perfection.

I just pray they do not discontinue it.

I saw that tweet before, but doesn't look good to me, looks like they're saying that will keep the game in current state just with bug fixes. No new map coming to DMZ is just bad, I understand is hard work to put all the AI and missions for the new map, I just hope someday will have it.

[cucuFitch]

i think that we have to wait to the second season for new dmz content. now they need everyone for mw3 so they can present a game in november that dont looks like a late beta version and then they need all to fix the bugs ... hahahah ok 20% of them fix bugs, the rest do new shop stuff XD

Yes, I think now they're focus on MW3, that's understandable.
