SBMM is absolutely out of control lately. It's gotten to the point where I go insane. I'm muttering nonsense... I'm taking screen shots and film like I'm making a documentary... I'm currently selling my soul on Ebay for the low low price of "Just one Fking teammate". Every lobby I'm in is an Olympic one where each player represents a different nation. My favorite game lately was a 3v3. One of my teammates was using a Hakke test weapon and the other had full green and blue gear. The enemy team had 2 god roll Grasp of Maloks and a Last Word. Every game I go into is designed for me to lose. (4 out of 5 are in progress on the losing team) I swear every bullet I shoot is a limp dick tator tot. I've tried over 20 guns lately n they all have a NERF logo on the side instead of Suros or Omolon. My enemies have all been outfitted laser guided heat seeking butthole penetrating rounds. SBMM has hit a new level of BS. It's going too far. I'll just be over here in the corner crying and picking up pieces of butthole and controller.

That's bungie punishing you because you're good at the game.. They hate decent players

1 ReplyCrucible is less fun than ever because of the dwindling population. The bounties that require wins don't help either.

9 RepliesTrials has destroyed more friendships in my group then any other game mode, I myself truly dislike Trials and will only play when new weapons and armor is available. I personally prefer Iron Banner but even it gets sweaty, laggy and red barred. But I'll tolerate IB before ToO any day of the week.
-
Banner in particular should be 100% open. I.e. First on que are matched. All weapons,gear accepted. Nerfs removed to "out of box" status. And. .................... GO! Banner imo is supposed to be "bring what you got and kill or be killed". So what if you get destroyed. Just a game. Side note- fire teams are a whole other monster. Let's be honest. No team of randos are going to consistently win against seal team 6. So that's a touchy argument and solution. Otherwise. Enter. And play on!

3 RepliesYeahhh it is pretty bad. I usually only do crucible during events, so in the last iron banner I noticed that. Biggest losing streak I got was around 25-30 losses due to really badly matched teams. Just crazy

Edited by RyanT_100: 8/1/2016 6:41:42 PMI'm using a nlb and a fusion rifle. Played 2 people using longbow and universal remote and 1 using last word and 1kstare in skirmish. It didn't go well
-
Yeah pvp is utter garbage anymore. It's not fun to play. Trying to do weapon master last night with hand cannon and swear a third of bullets hit someone but didn't register. Plus the lag is so bad I was getting killed before people would even see me or getting shot and dying when 5 feet around a corner. Seriously not considering buying Rise of Iron because the pvp is so bad anymore.

4 RepliesEdited by un33k_malik: 8/1/2016 4:04:42 PMIve been enjoying freelance 3v3 which i feel is not as bad. I actually had a salvage match in that playlist where i went unbroken with 19 kills. Edit: now if only i could get some good teammates who know how to hold □ to res.

1 ReplyI quit Destiny a couple of weeks ago because of the current no-fun state of the Crucible, so I'm just checking into the forums now and then to see if things have gotten better. Guess they have not.
-
4 Repliesanybody who has put enough time and effort into the crucible will agree that MM is rigged. you can't tell me otherwise.
-
It's basically putting me and a few other retards against a team of triple flawless, last word, longbow users who it seems like have a 6th senses dedicated to this damn game. Yeah now that's what I call balance.
-
Its why I haven't been in Crucible in a little while, hasn't been fun at all recently. And if I go in with friends, its easier on me sometimes but they sure don't have any real fun. Just doesn't work right now
-
I stopped playing months ago. Sorry, but I'd really not like to play people on other continents.
-
I don't think it's SBMM. It's bungie ninja nerfing our Internet to either give us the advantage or the other player.. there's just.times where you're just not ment to win that gun fight.. you all know what I'm talking about
-
Dammit, I have to play at my skill level now! [spoiler]\_/ Here's a bucket for your tears.[/spoiler]
-
I'm not a very good pvper look at my stats. But I completely agree. The matchmaking is broken.

19 RepliesEdited by i shoot people: 7/31/2016 7:51:10 PMYou will never know how good you are compared to all players because they regulate the game to the max. Excellent player? Fine the game will match you with scrubs against all pretty solid players to match elo scores. That will teach you a lesson about having skill. Next time suck at the game to boost your chances of winning.

Edited by Blank: 8/1/2016 5:35:57 PMWhen are people going to stop blaming sbmm for their own mistakes. Looking at a few recent games.. Like your latest 1 for example.. You have what a 2.0 kd? The majority of your enemies had a 1 kd or lower the highest was like 1.2? Sbmm caused this you say? You alone were the "stacked" player or team, you lost get over it. Also Lag isn't caused by sbmm, lag is caused by people with shitty connections, I still come across a shit load of laggy people from my own country/state.
-
Sbmm is to keep the game fair for everyone. Otherwise noobs are getting matched up with elites. The problem is the red bar gods that dont take damage or teleport around and god forbid all their damage delt registers at one time. The new formula they were using for control felt nice. Not alot of red bars and most of the games were semi close
-
I stopped playing it. Only play Iron Banner. Now that I have 3 toons at 334 I won't play IB either.

11 RepliesEdited by DMV Knox: 8/1/2016 4:31:40 PMCrucible is more balanced then it has ever been. U mote may get a nerf but that's it. I was more referring to not everyone has to use the same weapon to succeed and subclasses seem balanced also. The lag is still a real thing and hopefully they can clean it up.
-
1 ReplyGreat Post!! It's was pretty funny but you are absolutely right. Control has been a swear n' sweat fest. Like when did people start playing as full fire teams so much in control . I played three matches in a row against all (different) 6 man teams. I just thought it was odd and is this what people are doing to stay positive?
-
4 RepliesI have the exact same issue. Its impossible for me to solo que into games, especially Skirmish (used to be my favourite playlist). I found myself barely playing Destiny anymore because of the match making, unless my friends convince me to play in a full fire team. I might be in top 1% but Im not by any means a "hard core" Destiny player. I play for fun, casually, mainly crucible. When I cant do this I decided to get off Destiny until I can notice a difference. Litterarely every other game I get paired up with 0.7's and Im facing a full team with 1.5+ kd's, having to battle on my own uphill. Usually my team mates quit the game early and countless times Im in for a 1v3. It's an absolute disgrace and sometimes I wish that some other guardian would play on my account just to see how horrible it is to sit at my elo/kd.

1 ReplyI'd be fine with SBMM if they introduced private custom matches. Then you could have your fun, but when you feel competitive you can hop into regular Crucible.
