Control is dead

Every game I get into control now is a mercy. We either destroy the other team or we get Destroyed. Neither of those is any fun for anyone. Used to be the fun casual mode. Now it’s absolutely terrible.

  • Yeah, unfortunately Destiny pvp has been pretty dead for a long while now. Summer of 2024 was the last time pvp was cool at all. It was around the time Revenant dropped, when it died.

  • Control has always been insanity. Literally comp and trials are sit back and chill modes.

    • Yeah, Control is in a piece of -blam!- state right now. Almost no game is worth playing to the end anymore. What an incredible incompetent PVP team this game has! I am always surprised how much worse they manage to mess it up every time. And they want us to buy their next PVP-only game...

        Outlier Protection/Delta was designed with so much population. The current numbers cant hold that anymore. It just has to be random MM conection.

      • That's why I mainly stick to comp.

        • Play trials instead. Low population is a good thing because you almost guarantee at least 1 sweat teammate.

        • You’re now just noticing this? It’s been a mess for years lmao. Even worse around EOF, I’d be facing the same people over and over lol.

          • Just like gambit, dungeons, Grandmasters, raids. lost sectors, the game overall and most people’s desire to play this farce of a mmo game.

              tryin to work with whats left.. for now - 4/3/2026 12:46:30 PM

              I sadly agree - the falloff in Control balance > for me very noticeable after the 1st update of the year is the #1 reason I play less D2 and don't consider Marathon. Control is the center loop for what I do in D2 its to feed the variety of weapons that can be used/tested in that casual mode.... for me its counterpart in PVE is Onslaught. [quote][b]“Control, control, you must learn control!”[/b] is a famous line spoken by Master Yoda to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980). The quote emphasizes the need for Jedi to master their emotions, fears, and impulses to avoid falling to the dark side. [/quote] ...like Master Yoda said... and quite timely for this expansion... Bungie must learn Control!
