Any other solos out there hate IB right now?

Title says it all Edit: It must be a great game mode when all I see is "we are breaking up those teams to find a better match". By the way I am grinding this out as painful as it may be. Edit: wow... did not expect this many replies. 400+ replies and trending.

  • side note: as for solo in IB. Another thing is when people decide there's no chance to win they stop playing the objective and just go for kills just to try and complete bounties which garuantees a loss. I did it. I was like they've picked up the spark 6 straight times why am i trying. I'll just go for primary kills or something. And you lose so often that once i got to 5 which, sadly took only 5 matches since i lost them all, everybody just backs out when it starts looking futile. It's a tough slog. I gave up. i went played for an hour and had no wins, was rank zero with zero points. I did eventually get a win but i didnt' even get the win with 2500 points bounty because i came in when the match was at 14000 points. Yeah even daily bounties will be super hard mostly because you could easily go hours without a win. And i still got lots of lagging red bars and played against lots of parties so i don't see major matchmaking improvement. Hopefully at least i won't sit in orbit for nearly as long.

    • [b]F[/b]ucking hate it. I wanted to go through this IB more chill. But I keep running into the sweatiest of sweaties. So I've put my Tryhard pants on and scrubbed forward.

    • I've played mostly solo and found it really fun... As people play, they figure out the roles. Sometimes you get in a match with a team that doesn't know what they are doing, but then you get in one where everything works like clockwork. Seriously, I think it's awesome.

    • Hilarity ensues when you realize that the teams that were "broken up" had the bottom-place guy (re: solo player) from the winning team switched for the top-rank player on the losing team (re: solo player, but decent), and the resulting teams were switched from Alpha to Beta. TOTALLY DIFFERENT TEAMS!

    • 13 games. 3 wins. Almost all matches are against Fireteams. Try to go for sparks but hard when there aren't people to help capture it with me. Nonetheless it feels super good to win against full Fireteams.

        I think people should be able to find at least one person to play with in the iron banner. But I think for rift there should be 3 or 4 different playlists. A 6v6 playlist for solo, duos and threes. Then a 4v4, 5v5 and a 6v6 playlist. I don't believe there should be a solo playlist because it would stretch the player base a bit too much for people who make the effort to get into a fireteam. But there is no point playing solo or in a small fireteam against large fireteams because it's just not fun.

        • Bottom line rift is not iron banner material but ride it out anyway for the drops and rank 5 packages

          • Was playing in a team and still hate everything about rift. I'll skip this iron banner. That scout rifle looks good, but worth torturing myself over.

          • I'm primarily solo and I've been having a pretty good time with it. Maybe I'm in the minority but it's not as bad as everyone likes to say.

          • This is the first Iron Banner I'm not going to bother playing. I still have my old Gheleon's Demise which is pretty much exactly the same as the new Iron Banner scout. So luckily I'm not missing out on anything XD

          • This game mode is so much harder solo. It's really just a lot better experience with a good fire team

          • As a solo player it's going either god-aweful or I'm playing baseball with the spark. Close call are hardly present.

          • I'm a solo gamer. And i've come to grips with the fact that this game will never cater to me and possibly isn't a game i'm always going to enjoy because they want to make people play in teams. To the point where i disable my online status notifications because by and large i don't want to be bothered. Funny too the one person i game with most has his online status disable too. I often game to get away from people. Also, i'm an adult so gaming with teens isn't really my cup of tea. Nothing against teens. I've had fine experiences with some but others are rowdy and easily distracted and not really concentrating. And that's super annoying if you're like trying to do trials and they go afk when you're one win from a good reward. But it's ok every game isn't for everyone. I just enjoy destiny when i can. But right now there isn't much to do solo and the game is just meh for me. Plus i've notice far fewer people on LFG and those that are are super demanding.

            I play solo and I barely have experience lagged tbh. Also I find pretty good teams so I'm able to get my bounties done on all 3 characters pretty quick. I actually don't mind IB rift
