Search function.
PvE, AI, or Rogue Drones will all give plenty of results. Rouge Drones will also give a few, because some people think the drones are wearing makeup.
Basically, the only confirmed PvE in the game is a "survival" or "horde" style mode based around destroying Rogue Drones - which are AI controlled machines with tentacles that have gone mad and are trying to destroy everything. |

Well, asking for MORE PvE options is a completely different topic from what I read.
That's all they've confirmed so far though. Probably that will be the only PvE option on release, but I'd expect more to come with the (free) expansions that will inevitably be released.
There have been a couple of threads asking about non-combat roles and aspects to the game as well, so adding those into the mix could also potentially be quite interesting. Salvaging abandoned equipment, crashed ships, etc. They could add construction and mining operations where you're on-world manually performing the normally-automated tasks with a chance to increase the speed or improve the results in different ways. |

The guys idea was incredible though. You know how you can salvage in EVE? This guy came up with the idea that there could be solo/co-op instances, ie a cave, or a wrecked ship if you will.
You could shoot NPC enemies, in mission style, semi scripted, ie like Gears of War Horde, or other survival modes. At the end, you could get salvage that you could even sell in EVE, perhaps on a downed Gitsi ship for example.
You know the Rogue Drones mode is like Gears of War's Horde mode already, right?
And you know we already have a (currently unused) Salvage screen in DUST's post-mission stats, so there are plans for salvage already, right?
Cool idea, but I have a feeling it's probably part of what's already planned.
Salvage missions around crashed ships would be pretty awesome. And to make it better, they could dynamically generate the ships to salvage when a ship gets destroyed in EVE within a certain distance from a planet - so if you know there's been a massive space battle, you can go looking and find a few Mercs hunting around the planets for loot. And kill them to steal all their stuff. This is New Eden, after all  |
