Infinity Ward\u2019s take on an extraction shooter, DMZ, hasn\u2019t quite reached the highs as originally hoped, but the game mode boasts a passionate fan base. However, after a string of \u201cdisappointing updates,\u201d some players are starting to lose faith. Public sentiment began wavering in March. DMZ streamer Stodeh flamed a lack of replayability, long-term progression, and an overwhelming amount of PVP. And then, after the Season 4 Reloaded update in July, Westie claimed DMZ is \u201cchalked.\u201d The Warzone 2 season streamer attributed his frustrations to a long list of bugs \u201cruining\u201d DMZ. As a result, players urge the devs to inject some much-needed life into the game mode if there is any chance to save it. Warzone 2 players label DMZ as \u201c20% Fun and 80% Frustrating DMZ players took to Reddit and voiced their frustrations about the current state of their favorite game mode. The post creator blasted a \u201cfrustrating\u201d amount of PvP combat ruining a mode originally designed as a primarily PvE experience. \u201cI don\u2019t want DMZ to fade into the forgotten 3rd game mode pile like Extinction, IWZ, WW2Z, and ExoZ. I just want a decent PvE experience since MW2 doesn\u2019t have one.\u201d To fix the issue, the player suggested a separate PvE-only playlist for squads looking for more of a casual experience. Other community members agreed. One player responded: \u201cI really dislike the PvP part of it too. I would love a PvE-only mode.\u201d A second user added: \u201cHaving a separate PvE playlist where everyone can\u2019t hurt each other and just cooperate sounds like a dream.\u201d As a byproduct of players engaging in too much PvP combat, it indirectly makes it a near-impossible experience for solo players taking on full teams. A third player argued: \u201cPvP is somewhat unfair if you play solo. There is absolutely no chance to stand against 3-5 players whenever you face them. It is boring and unfair.\u201d It remains to be seen if Sledgehammer Games has any plans to bring back DMZ in Modern Warfare 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone 2 players fear DMZ will become a \u201cforgotten\u201d game mode ActivisionDMZ players urge the Warzone 2 devs to address PvP problems before the game mode fades away into irrelevance.
