I'm a PvP main and PvP in this game has been getting worse and worse. The netcode is pretty bad and snapshotting can lead to nonsensical game states.

That aside, they keep buffing damage so the time to kill in pvp is very fast. Combined with the bad netcode, it makes for a rather frustrating experience where you are respawning more than you are fighting. For a game with such bad netcode, you would think they would go for a longer time to kill so it does not rely only on ping or snapshotting.

Basically, you dive in, get one or two pokes in, and have to immediately evacuate the area or you will be dead. There's not enough sustain or defensives to fight through it like there is in other MMOs, which to me just isn't very fun.

This is by design, the high level play is poke poke retreat.

They need to fix the netcode and make PvP more of an engagement rather than a poke and retreat. There isn't even enough time to get your irl adenaline going before you either retreat or die. Very underwhelming.
