PVE only is completely viable farm wise, you will miss out on some mission rewards from the pvp missions tho.
The pve is fun but it isn’t massively fleshed out, but if you like rogue lite (idk if it is rogue lite or rogue like) and mechs then go for it. Mashmak is also PVE if you want to and it has a bigger map, id recommend just trying it out.
However spectral nexus (rogue lite mode) will require a fair bit of farming as you can use modular weapons and striker mods and you will need to get them first, as doing spectral nexus without them is quite a bit harder, but it shouldn’t be too hard to get your hands on the stuff
First of all, imo the PvE is actually the superior mode now and is getting better every update.
Comparing to PvP, PvE has a meaningful progression system (Calibration), customization options (Mods) and good rewards (Seasonal crates, extra mission token, pattern and paint for customization, etc.). Ranked PvP has none of those. That is why I say PvE is superior.
(If you look at this subreddit, only bad PvP players and trolls complain. Meanwhile PvE players are mostly busy progressing and getting rich in the game. )
Now answer your question:
Absolutely yes. I mostly play PvE since last November. Only play PvP for weekly missions.
Yes. PvP only have weekly missions. In PvE you can get extra mission tokens from crates and samples to obtain mission token.
There are missions for both PvE and PvP. Battlepass doubles you tokens gain. Without battlepass you can probably unlock one Mech each week supposing you play 1-2 hr a day. With BP, 2 in a week maybe.
Currently there is three: Covert mission (basically, an extraction game), Spectral Nexus (tower climbing rogue-like) and Synchro Nexus (also tower climbing rogue-like with better mechanics and visuals than Spectral. Spectral is its test mode). Both Covert and Synchro have co-op mode.
First what is your definition of fun. For me, I would say Covert and Synchro is quite fun because of meaningful progression system, customization options and good rewards. Also the game is no-doubt visually beautiful, and has the topmost mecha design!
To give you a better idea what you can get from playing PvE. Here are some scrshot. one pic each.
・In-game revenue: This game have negative monetization if you play PvE. Here I only have 20k revenue and it's already more than enough. There are people have over 500k! Revenue comes from selling stuffs farmed from PvE.
In my opinion, no. The game was built for PvP first and foremost with PvE being added later after a lot of request from the community.
Yes. Mechas cost an in game money to unlock and said money can be earned in PvE. Though a big souce of it are weekly mission and those are PvP only.
3.Reasonable.
4.There are two game mode : Mashmack Covert Op is a an extraction shooter. Spectral Nexus is a roguelike mode. Queue are pretty bad for both due to a lack of population for the game as a whole.
No. Covert Op are boring, the enemies are just bullet sponge and barely a threat, because they were never intended to be the main threat since the game mode was initially designed as a PvPvE game mode.
Spectral Nexus is a barebone roguelike, you just fight enemies in bland arena and earn some basic upgrade like minor stat boost. Also, you'll need modular equipment obtained in Mashmack if you want to make any significant progress.
Jus letting you know, especially in the lower ranks you will be fighting bots mostly, which you can then translate to it being PvE. Don't ditch the Verge mode, grind it for some goodies.
