Is Supremacy the worst game mode for Iron Banner, ever?
Yes. Yes it is, for the following reasons:
1. It promotes entirely selfish play, even on a fireteam. I’ve played solo and in a full team of six, and there is little teamwork involved (other than yelling “Grab that crest!” or “Stormcaller incoming.”)
2. Let’s be honest: racking-up kills when nobody grabs the crest gets real old, real fast.
3. As a Day 1 shotgunner, shotguns are a plague in this game mode. Because of it, they’ll likely get nerfed.
4. Slide shotgunning is the Call-of-Dutiest tactic, and should be essentially removed from the game. Sliding should be a defensive tactic; it should be pure luck if you happen to hit your target while sliding.
5. This game mode is best-suited to twitchy kids and folks chugging Red Bull. The massive ADHD Hunter population is at home in a Supremacy Iron Banner.
6. Finally, and most troubling, Iron Banner Supremacy brings out the worst of the PvP player. I have seen more teabagging and taunting in this IB than in any previous IB. Not good, Bungie. This is NOT the PvP play you want to be promoting. Or maybe it is.
Edit:
7. Picking up a crest should NOT charge your super. Only kills - whether the crest is picked-up or not - should charge your super.

2 RepliesDon't think anything can take the title of worst mode for IB away from rift, that shite was horrible. That said it's a terrible mode for me personally. I'm an average player at best, some would say scrub and I probably wouldn't argue. The super aggressive play style of the mode is horrible for me and my play style, if I have such a thing lol. From what I've scene though there nothing wrong with the mode
-
2 RepliesTotally agree and don't you like seeing players lay back just to swoop in to get crests. Kills need to count more, just to keep it legit.

Bump, I hate this game mode sooo much

All the effort and someone else steals my crest. I have been tirelessly trying to max my IB reputation so I can move onto another character...with no other IB bounties it isn't easy. Return to what worked please!

Couldn't agree more. It promotes shotguns only, u can just run around getting no kills and collecting other ppls crests and charge your super, which throws teamwork out the window. This was a big mistake that I don't think Bungie thought out enough...

1 ReplyEdited by DHawk12: 10/8/2016 9:07:41 PMBest ib ever by a huge margin. Only campers and passive sniper scrubs would disagree because they are butthurt they need to move around to confirm kills and their precious kd's are suffering. Clash is the worst.

Yes sir, it's not only the worst iron banner, it's the worst mode..

3 RepliesI have actually enjoyed it this time more than quite some time. Is it my favorite game mode,? No, should it be the new ib everytime? No However your arguments are only from your pov. As mine are too. Everyone whining about shot guns are really blowing smoke. Yes that is the first choice for a special for me in this mode but I have been doing the majority of my work with my trusty pulse rifle, and have been killed by primary weapons more than anything. It's really only when someone else gets too close and rush's me that I blast them with my shot gun. Finally, I think a new mode was needed regardless of what it is and no matter what mode Bungie decides, the community is going to bitch about it. Those are my thoughts anyway, I hope that as unenjoyable as it has been for you, that at least you got some great loot. I know I am happy with mine!

I agree supremacy is complete garbage. With leveling advantages, even more garbage

"Is Supremacy the worst game mode for Iron Banner, ever?" Just played another three matches, and yes I can comfirm it is complete and total crap....
-
I agree
-
I disagree. Most fun I've had in a IB. I actually wanted to play this IB. Usually I sit it out, too campy and passive.

Nope rift
-
No it's awesome!

2 RepliesUh, no. No it isn't. It works out pretty well actually. You can have your heavy hitter focused on getting kills and your weaker players focusing more on grabbing crests when they need to. You can coordinate so that when somebody is using a roaming super they can have somebody grabbing crests for them so that they don't have to. You can make sure that you have a teammate with you so that if you die they can grab your crest. It's not a bad gametype, provided you have an actual fireteam and not just a group of randoms.

1 ReplyEdited by Senor Crouch: 10/8/2016 9:36:01 PMThe biggest issue with Supremacy is that with Destiny's high mobility game play this game mode only promotes shotguns. When 6 people are all running towards a single crest, you think any class of weapon (fusion rifles, auto rifles, scout rifles, elemental primaries, rocket launchers, etc) are going to be anywhere near as effective as a shotgun? The reason this game mode is so successful in Call of Duty is that CoD doesn't have blinks, gap closers, or supers. The closest thing they have is a slide, and even then there are a plethora of counters before an enemy player is even close enough to knife or shotgun someone simply due to the slower mobility mechanics of CoD. The problem here is not shotguns, but the lack of counters to the high mobility Destiny brings to the table. Hand Cannons used to be a decent counter to the up close and personal builds, but not any more. Imagine a massive AoE grenade that oozed onto the floor like when a Fanatic dies in the Vault of Glass which slows down opponents within the puddle? Imagine a Special exotic Rocket Launcher that did the same but as a napalm effect and only caused minimal damage to foes upon detonation. Imagine a Trip Mine grenade that acts as those new Hive cage mines we see in Strikes now. Imagine an exotic Arc Fusion Rifle called the "Don't Taze Me" where if an opponent is hit in mid air, that Guardian immediately falls out of the sky and is slowed for a few moment after landing. Slowing down mobility would give other classes of weapons a little better time to shine, even in game modes such as Supremacy.

1 ReplyYes. Supremacy is absolute shit. I hope this is the last time it is IB.

Respect your view but old gallp quite enjoys the pace and the dog fights.

Supremacy is the worst destiny game mode. I hope it will be the last time IB is supremacy.

Edited by Shadowfang TC: 10/9/2016 8:09:36 PMYep. Worst one yet. I actually found Rift to be loads of fun, contrary to the popular opinion. Being the carrier and obliterating entire teams at the same time was a rush. Meanwhile... this "new" gametype... is a recycle of my least favorite mode in CoD... I'm not even a big fan of CoD to begin with. But it's better than Battlefield, I'll give it that. All this mode does is bring back the old British front-line style of war. Shoot until one side drops, then pick up crests. Edit: I forgot to mention the sheer amount of spawn killing in this mode. It's like the gametype was specifically designed to place players next to the opposing team on spawn. As you fade into existence, you are shotgunned instantly. Edit: After 25 matches, I got a piece of gear above 150. It's sad that excited me :) Edit: After grinding all the way to level 5, I can assure everyone that the tables are broken. I popped a few 3oC (2-3 per win, and 1 on a losing game) and got a single exotic my entire time playing. No weapons dropped above 152 (only two weapons dropped at 152, all others were 150 or below), and most all gear dropped at 140. Absolute worst time ever. I'm usually VERY lucky when it comes to loot. This Iron Banner event is broken beyond repair. Glad I don't have to do it anymore this week. When Shotguns beat EVERYTHING at close to mid range, there's an issue. Apparently, as long as you line the shot up, you can shoot someone down a hallway with one lol. To be fair, near the end of the grind I started using a fusion rifle (I'm sorry everyone) and it worked out great as I'd charge it up before cornering and kill the shotgunners. But it still seems to be the case that sliding increases a shotguns effective range by 2-3 times.

Op is tomato, he complained about people taking his crests and then complained about people not grabbing his crests
