I found the same playing this weekend, also if you want to have ago on your own or just as pair, you don't stand a chance as you just get ganked by bigger teams. Me and Parko kept getting murdered by the same group for about 20 minutes last night, we gave up and left the area in the end as we couldn't do anything.
Levelcap's impression on the content is pretty much how I feel too, I have a suspicion, that there really won't be much to do and it will all be repetitive, much like Destiny was. I also hope that the city will end being more dense and packed with more NPC's, threats, stuff going on etc.
