Failed to kill MeatBall in Gambit because of catch up mechanics

Thank you so much Bunghole. Reset my infamy rank for the second time and today Meatball spawned for the first time. The very first time. My team easily won first round and so we had the boss for malfeasance spawning. Thx to Bunghole and their stupid catch up mechanics, you can easily imagine what the fight was all about - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! - you've been invaded! And we lost the round. Needless to say that, without these shit mechanics (because we lost second round) we won the third round and the game. Thx again Bungie Edit : wow lot of replies. Just to clarify : i was with a decent pick up group, banking motes quickly , not going for 15 motes, killing wizards instantly, with the right loadout/doctrine. Hell, the opposite team didn’t even spawn their primeval when we won the first and third round. It looked like they kept their super and heavies just for the Meatball phase.

  • I dont understand how the enemy team can invade right after another. Every time I go to invade I got to wait for the portal to open. And i swear on primeval fight it only opened once on many occasions. The enemy team would be killing their primeval but the portal won't open for me to get in there. Yet we can can get invaded over and over constantly. That doesn't seem unfair at all.

  • I now believe there’s also a lot of lag involved in this mode. I was playing earlier and seen the other teams PE health bar jump from full health to just over half health instantly, no slow reduction, like it had been hit with a nuke.

    • I have had this happen, and I was pretty pissed until I realized all I was doing was shooting the boss no matter what. The invader killed us easily because we were not focusing on invader. Luckily the meatball spawned again a couple matches later, and this time I sat in one of the invader spawns, shit the boss till the invader came, and easily killed the invader without primeval heal. Just try to focus the invader once, then dps. It’s easy after that.

      • I only play gambit for the powerful rewards. Seen the meatball for the first time a couple of days ago, killed it, quest dropped. Feel free to hate me.

          • I hate that shit so much. The same thing cost me my Malfeasance kill as well. Honestly, I think if you get invaded and the enemy gets 3+ kills there should be a longer cool down before they can invade again during the Primeval phase.

          • Why is your team being destroyed by the invader? How about when the invader appears,your team or a team mate takes him/her out. It's you and your teams fault for losing. Not the mechanics. Own up to it. Your team panicked when the Meatball appeared. You choked when the invader showed up.

            • The Invasion Portal should open whenever the Primeval is at 50% and 25% Health.

            • The game seems to be balanced around 2 well coordinated teams playing against one another... Hence why you can invade so frequently. A coordinated team can easily take out a primeval in under 5 seconds. Also can someone explain how the primeval slayer buff works? As far as I can tell it's got nothing to do with the wizards. Whether we kill them or not(even when we summon first) we still end up with the buff. It seems tied to the invasions.

              • There has to be a better way for the ball to spawn. Maybe: Ten wins gets you a “summoning consumable” good for four hours... this summoning consumable gives you a 75% chance of seeing or fighting the ball. Have nice day 👍

                • Limit invasions to one per player per round to make it a tactical choice.

                  • seen the meatball 4 times over the last week - have not seen it before. 1st time - was with 4 stack of clanmates - took it out. we each went to get gun. 2nd time - was solo, had a rage quitter between the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Guess what the 3rd rounds boss was - had the quitter stayed he would have probably gotten the quest, but NO. 3rd time - again solo, took it out. 4th time - was with clanmate - was incredibly difficult as invaders kept coming. they would blow supers but were also 20 motes short in collecting. needless to say, we got it done in the end. Best tip possible - CLEAN YOUR PLATFORM and any outlying areas before trying to kill it. Wire Rifle deaths will certainly lessen your chances more any other factor.

                  • I don't play gambit anymore . I was evading it like a plague. This saturday friends asked if we wanted to take advantage of triple XP. In less then 2 hours i said f..k this. P2p Connection kills my joy to play this game greatly. Any mode that is build on P2P sucks big time. Catch up mechanics are bullshit. Just monitor damages for same weapons on Round 1 - Round 2. There shall be no catch up mechanics. There must be a limit on invading. The best i can think about is the cooldown. It must be increased to 30 seconds. The only way this to be lowered must be if your team also invades. Rest , evade this manipulated game mode. P.S : I have malfeseance quest line and still say f...k that game mode.

                    • I think the invasion portal opens way too much during Primeval phases. I sometimes find myself constantly killing the invader becuase their seems to be constantly open.

                      • EXACTLY the same thing happened to me; however, as soon as I realized we had the meatball I knew that the other team would easily be able to win this current round since they got laughably destroyed in the first round. THE PORTAL DOES OPEN TOO FREQUENTLY due to the catch up mechanic you speak of. Manipulation in Crucible is even worse--I always get 10-15 kills without dying and then the server throws on a few seconds of artificial delay on me because it has to or else the match would be over in almost no time at all. Mind you, I can still do pretty well but it then takes be 9-12 hits to kill anyone but I just have to play smarter and keep in mind what Bungie's server has done to me. Not a skill game. It's a game about learning to manipulate the manipulation.

                          • I've been there. Twice now. Exaclty the same crap. Could not get that boss down, thanks to constant invasions and a little bit of fail from our team. I really dislike that Malfeasance quest.

                          • catch up mechanics are too powerful however primevals can be kill FAR too quickly to the point where you cant do anything to stop it even if you do get a portal every 10 seconds

                              Did you invade back? It works pretty well to slow the other team down.

                            • Nah, you didn't use the mechanics in your favor. Kill the adds get your primeval killer stat up before you start to melt the boss. When you're doing that it doesn't matter if they kill anyone on invasion because the boss is still at full health. when you get it up enough with your team you can down the boss in seconds.

                                Same. Boss for my team spawned for the first time for us and we have played a ton of gambit. We couldn’t do much damage at all because adds and invaders with sleepers and blade barrage screwed us over. This is BS!! I ain’t never getting that gun just because the spawn rate is aids for that boss and people can invade the entire time your fighting the boss.

                                • Gambit is still garbage. We’ve traded sleeper (which I still get killed by every match) for queen’s breaker. If you have to have double and triple xp for a game mode to draw players to it, that should tell you something. And the catch up mechanics are ridiculous.
