This is a great post, and it makes sense. On a forum filled with memes and hyperbole this is a welcome change of pace. It’s also very positive, and touches on a lot of issues that get blown way out of proportion. Weapon balance feels so good right now, and yes there are some weapons that are stronger than the average weapon, but none of them actually feel overpowered because if lost souls can find success with a bow against them by using his brain and developing skills and tactics we all can. Check out that run on sentence! I’m not even going to fix it because most wont read it, and if they do it says everything that needs saying. The truth is most players don’t want to. They just want to spew the memes they hear from content creators, but when you watch the gameplay in their content it doesn’t even match what they are saying. Content creators have to be hyperbolic and polarizing when presenting their opinion. Then they ask us to comment when they could honestly care less what we have to say. [spoiler]Thats just to help their algorithm.[/spoiler] They are trying to attract and energize an audience, not improve the game for the average players. It’s sucks seeing content creators mobilizing their fans to repeat what they say (most don’t have original ideas which you see immediately when you press them and they link a video) to change the game to benefit themselves. They need lobbies where they can run out of medals against players who have no business being matched with them. Thanks for posting your feedback. It’s good stuff.

    This will probably be one of the few times you and I won’t agree on a subject. Glad you are having fun with it. Myself, besides matching people in Asia when I’m on US East Coast, I have not found it great. Don’t get me wrong it wasnt great before either. I just think this them vs us mentally helps no one. Both extremes need to grow up and meet in the middle. Sadly though, nobody wants that either. Just lump people in one group or another. Or in the case of some, block those that don’t agree with you

The fewer players the harder it is to find a match that is close and is close in skill. I too agree with the idea the best thing for the community would be a compromise that benefits the most players.

  • Good response- even though me and you have different views on sbmm, I can always give credit where it is due and give compliments to.... not only your positive way of arguing logically- but to the fact you spread good positivity in the forums. Take my bump!

    Blaming content creators is so stupid. They make money with this game, some do even feed their kids with this money. There are zero reasons they want this game to be bad and fail. Makes no sense, if SBMM is what "90 % oF tHe coMMUinTy" wants (what,s just not true by the way, many average players hate SBMM too) why should a content creator be against it? and dont say "theY jUst wAnt tO puB stOmp" because of the viewers.... oh wait you think viewers like to see high kill games? wait... they like to see it but dont want to have high kill games for themselves? seems logic .....

I am criticizing their actions. I don’t think what they spend the money they make through their actions justifies their actions. Don’t try and straw man me. I never said they want the game to be bad and fail. They want it to change to suit their personal preferences and what will allow them to be more financially successful creating content. 1. Viewers do want to see high kill count games. If content creators can’t provide it they lose viewers and get a reputation of being BAD. The players with the most viewers aren’t even the best players in the game. They are entertaining, CBMM benefits them because viewers find high kill games entertaining. 2. The average players wants high kill games. SBMM doesn’t keep them from having them. Their own skill does.

    Lost Sols did. Like he alway did. Meeh meeh bad content creators....meh. He says that he liked House of Wolves (connection based matchmaking) and disliked PVP in D2 Y1 (SBMM) This guy doesnt know what he,s saying. What actions? Expressing their personal opinion? 2.) Ok so why having SBMM then? Chances are higher with CBMM even when your less skilled. And everybody who says " i,m always playing against top 10 % players with CBMM is lying. It makes no sense. Or do all the topp PVPers live in your neighborhood?

Neither of us said the content creators are trying to make the game bad and fail. What actions? Advocating for changes that benefit themselves and not the average player. Creating outrage farming content that gets their audience whipped up and out in the community being toxic. SBMM is for creating fair lobbies. If you don’t want fair lobbies what do you want? Better connections? Well I guess we will need Bungie to create better matchmaking and/or a game that attracts a higher population. If we can’t have that I think it’s best for the average player to be in lobbies against players roughly their skill level.

  • Who doesnt advocate for changes that benefits themself? lol. You should follow some of Lost Sols discussions in this forum and on Twitter. This guy is the most toxic hypocrite that,s in this community. What else does he mean when he says: "We've seen the "dead game" attacks used to drive the game to suit them and with the growing daily attacks attempting to poison the community perception of PvP" This crying about content creators comes from people who are bad at the game and dont want to face people of different skilllevels. What i want? Good connections, different experiences,a variety of opponents, more alternatives for sbmm, i dont want to meta crutch in 3KD+ lobbies 100 % of the time, i dont wanna play for the PVP D2 Championship all the time, i want my clanmates beeing able to play with me (they cant in my sbmm lobbies) Bungie catered to casuals with year 1 and it nearly killed the game.

  • It,s pointless to argue with him. tried so many times in a reasonable way. When he has no arguments he blocks you and talks shit about you. This guy has lost every respect from many people in the community. Bye

    Ok. Have a nice day. You are just one of his yes sayers who tries to avoid discussions. Fits perfect to him. Keep on protecting a guy who made fun of orphans in this forum.

  • [quote]Thats not an attack, it,s a fact. How old are you? By the way when was the last time you,ve played Destiny?[/quote] Last night, and now. I know there is a bug in the app that means my history can’t be seen by all players. I reported it a year ago and Bungie hasn’t fixed it. Oh well, not worry I play more D2 than you: https://wastedondestiny.com/2_4611686018457717917,1_4611686018458880514

  • I'm well onboard the "PvP is much better" boat, but I do have a measure of sympathy for the good-sport players at the higher end of the skill curve. Mainly because it seems there are a fair number of poor sports up there who simply cant countenance losing. I know citing a streamer/YTer might stick in your craw a little, but Cammycakes made this observation - he'd do well using X loadout, players would switch to <insert meta loadout here> and he'd essentially be unable to counter it. He does likewise.... and they leave in a huff. 😕

The one you’re referring to may encapsulate his moping better, but I prefer the build explanation and then demonstration two fer he posted. It shows you cans out your time effort and brain into a loadout that doesn’t lean on powerful meta loadouts and still have fun, perform well, and get excited to play PvP.
