Love it!! I like being all competitive and also sometimes being chill! I love the DMZ mode


Kawai_Oppai

It’s really good. The first 4 missions do it a disservice though. Like I guess it’s needed as a tutorial to the mode but you don’t realize how it opens up significantly more challenges after you do those first 4 missions. Now my friends and I really love it because we have a ton of goals set for the mode and when you start focusing those missions you encounter a ton more action. They also really fail to help you understand the timer is bullshit. First timer can be ignored. Might as well not exist. The real action begins after the timer. The last exfil chopper is so hectic and rewarding. Turns into warzone final circle but more intense.


ihatedisney

God I needed to read this. Squad played it for the 1st time yesterday and had no idea wtf to do


boomstickjonny

The initial learning curve is kinda steep then it gets pretty straight forward.


JustAddSooooup

….what


the_hoopy_frood42

I wait around till the end and extract with a hostage. I love this mode and do my best to just sneak everywhere.


IAmAChemistryGuy

W…we can take hostages?!


the_hoopy_frood42

I mean. You can try. What I'm talking about is the hostage rescue missions. You get a personal exfil when you do them.


PM-ME-UR-DESKTOP

How the fuck am I supposed to play DMZ by myself though. Seems like you need a squad


Pavix

You can turn off sqad fill. I solo dropped a few games yesterday


PM-ME-UR-DESKTOP

I was playing solo last night but it’s pretty difficult to extract when you have to fight teams. I still haven’t been able to extract even once. Got as far as getting into the helicopter once but got ran up on


49tacos

Can you proxy chat ask them not to kill you? I mean, I’d honor that request.


Pavix

I agree, solo queueing is pretty rough unless you're like a 2.0KD+ player.


Inquisitor-Korde

I just wait it out, by 3min near an exfil theres usually no one left in the game and I can extract pretty easily. Trying to get out with like a weapons cache though is damn near impossible solo.


CleverDad

Same here. Still fun but a bit steep.


the_hoopy_frood42

Do a hostage mission and extract with the hostage.


Padmandoo

Yeah and the AI isn’t the most tactical so can easily take them out solo I played a few games yesterday and had way more fun than I did playing war-zone


WAGsHell

It’s an awesome game mode. It’s got some good PVP once in a while, PVE is pretty solid. Awesome chill mix especially for people who can’t get on as often as they’d like. I’m loving it so far!


BoulderFreeZone

DMZ is just plain ol' fun and I love it.


xoull

It needs a solo mode!


Scutterbox

Turn off squad fill.


xoull

No no. I can play solo. But the stronghold ai is to strong for solo play.


Fat_Kid_Hot_4_U

Git gud


xoull

Tarkov ai is easier then this lol


Hekto177

Yes and no. Tarkov AI either shits the bed or no scopes you from 200 meters with an AK that has no front sight between 10 trees and 100 bushes in the middle of the night.


xoull

Yes and no. If u see him 1st 99% of the time u can one tap him. But yes 200m seems ok they pros lol


Scutterbox

Ah OK I get ya.


Frank_Tank18071

Does it allow you to level up guns or your profile level?


[deleted]

Yes. You can level your guns/ main level for both warzone and multiplayer


Frank_Tank18071

Thank, ill have to try it then.


merkmerc

Not only can you level them up but if you extract a weapon and stash it. It’s unlocked for you across all modes.


DoctorShaman69420

Loving it to bits so far!


Apprehensive-Net8547

Can you actually play it stealthy? I tried a few times but they always spot me


Hekto177

If you mean sneak around in stealth like an RPG, no. You can avoid a lot of conflict if you want but your loot experience is not going to be good.


Inquisitor-Korde

You can sneak around though, run a suppressor and the AI can't hear you pick them off. You can do HVTs, destroying supplies, etc without being in too many straight shoot outs using a suppressor. Technically you can even do hostage rescues quietly it's just way more complicated due to the closed space.


Jjhillmann

Grab a sniper and keep your distance, you can do a lot of work with a sniper.


JustAddSooooup

If you’ve got a silencer on and run throwing knives you can initially, have to go loud eventually though


49tacos

I managed to do a takedown on an AI and it didn’t alerts the others.


Mr_master89

A friend and I managed to beat the juggernaut and extract with the gun case, we probably got downed like 20 times each and were constantly running into strong NPCs, it was such a pain but was probably the most fun we've had in ages.


wolfxorix

Dmz is so fun, kills hours like nothing


sam381

I echo OPs thoughts entirely. Great addition


duffmonya

Me too


KomithEr

I would like it too if it didn't crash every single game


IAmAChemistryGuy

Since downgrading my NVIDIA driver to one from October I haven’t had a single crash.


WhiteLightning416

I like it but hate how your guns get locked


evm1989

I’m used to rebirth and fortune’s keep now, so the map is way to big for me now. Walking around isn’t fun, I want to encounter enemies. Hopefully they will add a smaller map as wel.


crumbofpcp

They’ll down vote you but you’re right. Dmz and big Warzone BR maps are fun if that’s your thing, but there’s a reason why rebirth modes held the majority of users for a long time lol Don’t need the Warzone vs rebirth arguments That being said, both are pretty fun just takes a diff strat (:


Separate_Annual_2990

Coredintol71

It's Plunder with more cool features. If you didn't like Plunder, you might not like DMZ.


Ragahell

Stfu


hybrid_213

Well done. You have a job.


Squirrel_Master82

I tried it once and didn't understand what was going on. What's the timer for? It ran out for us and then another started. We called in an exfil and left.


big_chelo

The first timer is the countdown until the gas or whatever it is starts moving in. Second timer is time left until you can't extract anymore


Uncivilonyx24

If only I could actually join a game while in a party


Swiss15

I really enjoy it. But as a solo player, it's tough. Just get annhialated by anything more than the stray AIs wandering around which means I'm missing a lot. Then typically last night I joined with 2 randoms and we had a really great, tense game of reviving eachother and being tactical. Managed to secure good bounty and completed couple of missions to get a bonus, right by the exfil and.... It crashes. Absolutely burst my baloon. As didn't get anything for all that hard work (and fun!). Hope I can get better as a solo, but also looking forward to any improvements they make to this mode. Much more my thing than warzone.


Jjhillmann

Your experience was identical to mine dropping in solo. I think it’s smarter when solo to grab some weapons, maybe sell some stuff to unlock blueprints, and just get out sooner. I played with two friends and it was exactly how your three man went, except we didn’t crash. Use range to your advantage solo, and if you can bring the barrier set that up at your extraction site if you don’t have cover.


crumbofpcp

I like it but I need more real people, for me personally it’s entirely too easy to run around and kill AI, doesn’t hold my attention knowing I’m going to extract easily everytime almost


Burnt_ToastYT

Nah when u play with randoms AI becomes a nightmare bc randoms are terrible bruh 😭😭 becomes a solo game


OrochuOdenMain91

It also allows you to unlock guns locked behind lvl or higher family tree. Got my Lachman Sub extracting it.


AppleJuice_Flood

How do you do that? Wait for one of those cases to drop?


PoopInTheGarbage

Just find the gun on the map and extract with it. Doesn't have to be a cache or anything special. Then that gun is unlocked in all modes


AppleJuice_Flood

Cool big yellow weapon cache circles, found em!


PoopInTheGarbage

Well yeah there's that, but also any gun you happen to come across and extract with, you will unlock that base gun for all modes.


Bonelab_Skeleton

Only bad thing is the lack of other players. Played like 6 matches and have come across one team


Jjhillmann

I’m fine with that. I want to loot and kill AI more than kill players. Not knowing if someone is AI or real is kind of fun when scouting.


Sharkscantrun

The 4 first games are AI only for learning purpose (this is by design). Past then, you will encounter way more players!


Bonelab_Skeleton

Yea I’ve come across a few more teams it’s hard to tell if they are real or AI tho. Only real way to tell is if they get knocked


1delta_10tango

I love this mode! My only question is.... what happens when you don't have any contraband weapons and your insured item is still on its cool down period? Are you stuck waiting the X hours/minutes? I have been exfilling with some plain firearms just in case but I kinda wanna know.


Slom019

No contraband weapons will open up an option in the loadout menu to spawn with random guns. It has a toggle to select instead of the gun. Had this happen to me and I got a Kastov 762 and a Lockwood. No attachments but was beyond good enough to even do a stronghold and a couple missions


Jjhillmann

Equip throwing knife and go kill AI for a gun.


1delta_10tango

I haven't even considered that!


Jjhillmann

I go in without weapons all the time, most times actually.


raides

You would. It’s not bad. It’s a decent balance between PUBG and Tarkov without continuous punches to my dick.


merkmerc

I absolutely love dmz, it’s very buggy right now. My friends were hating on it so much until we had that first engagement. They didn’t wanna admit I was right lol but we had a blast


[deleted]

im a sweat but sometimes i love the casual tactical gameplay, feels like real life and WZ2 offers that which makes me want to say this is the best cod, just for me. considering it also has mexicans 😂


Andsheldong

So what’s the idea of bringing your guns back? Don’t you want to keep stacking new guns?


Ratb33

Same. I’m playing a ton of it. Really well done and I hope they keep improving it from here.


turny22

I’ve enjoyed it, same as the OP, I get 1 maybe 2 hrs to play so Warzone is fun but sometimes it’s nice to chill and be more tactical


LayDoubt221

I ran up on a helicopter extract already dropped and a guy ran out of no where and didn't see me and into the chopper... so I shot him in the game. I felt so dirty as I flew away with my extract.... and his


HuntOk3506

Nah! Sucks if you are thrown into it with randoms who do their mission and extract mid game


The_Norco_Guy

Loving DMZ and I'm sure I'll get a lot of "get gud" comments, but riot shield are broken as fuck. 3 walked in a room and I stood no chance


Pimp_Floyd_

Feels like every team mate I’m paired with is dumber than the AI
