So, this is the first IB that I've played enough to get up to rank 5. Along the way, I picked up 2 Timur's Lashes, 1 Radegast's Fury, 1 crappy Crucible ship, and a decent amount of rage. Here were the top things that made me rage in IB, in no particular order:
- [b]Getting sniped with Icebreaker or Black Hammer.[/b] Yeah, a sniper that has no ammo off spawn and has such ridiculous recoil that follow up shots are nearly impossible seems really good in PvP... What's that? You prefer your super 1337 sniper from normal mode Crota? How often are you chaining three critical shots in PvP, bro? I think what really pisses me off is that I still manage to die to these weapons...
- [b]Teammates running AWAY from the heavy spawn when the announcer says, "Heavy ammo inbound!"[/b] Like, seriously bro, what's going on in between your ears? I get that there's probably some people dipping into IB who aren't familiar with the maps and don't know where the ammo spawns, but I'd say for every 1 teammate I ever had who would come to the heavy ammo spawn 5 would run away from it like it's the a nuclear facility undergoing meltdown. On top of that...
- [b]Teammates running AWAY from SPAWNED HEAVY AMMO while I'm sitting there waiting for them to come before I pop it.[/b] "Nah, bro, I don't even use heavy. I'm doing hard mode IB." K, whatevs...
- [b]Network issues ranging from crappy connection to blatant cheese.[/b] What's that? You're walking into a wall right in front of me, I unloaded a mag into you and you were suddenly meleeing me in the back? Cool beans. Oh hey there you blinking-all-over-the-map-at-a-million-miles-an-hour-the-entire-match-shotgunning-people-guy. This is going to be fun...
- [b]The lack of teabagging in this game.[/b] Yes, you read that right, I said the LACK of teabagging. I grew up on the Halo series, where the following things merited teabagging your opponent's face into oblivion: (a) owning the crap out of them repeatedly; (b) getting owned by them repeatedly and then scoring a lucky kill on them while they were occupied with literally the rest of your team; (c) scoring a sick 360 no-scope or some other variety of rare awesomesauce on them; (d) getting them back for just generally being a douche. Varieties of the acceptable teabag may include but are not limited to: (1) the rapid crouch; (2) the uber-slow crouch; (3) the melee crouch; (4) the shoot-their-face crouch; (5) the shoot-the-sky-while-spinning-in-circles crouch; (5) the teabag-the-location-of-their-dead-corpse-until-they-revive-and-come-kill-you-in-that-very-same-location-while-you're-still-teabagging crouch. I saw literally not one teabag in all the games it took me to get rank 5. I am disappoint, Destiny community...
[b]EDIT:[/b] How could I forget the most fun teabag: The one where you had nothing at all to do with the kill, but swoop in just to crunch a couple times before moving on. So much fun :)
- [b]Going in as a random and getting matched up with a premade fireteam of 6. [/b] Sometimes they're scrubs. But most of the time they're wannabe MLG tryhards who absolutely dominate the game. It usually ends 20,000 to 6,000 or something like that, and while you yourself may still manage to go positive, you are on tilt for the next hour or so.
- [b]Getting Firebase Delphi 1,000,000,000 times in a row.[/b] Seriously, Bungie, what happened to your ability to develop maps that were balanced, if not strictly symmetrical, and featured both CQC, mid and long-range combat? And can we vote on the map selection or something?
- [b]Seriously, though, dat heavy ammo.[/b] Just freaking come pick it up, team...
And I guess that's it, although more may come back to me. All in all, I had a pretty good grind up to rank 5. My K/D in control went from 1.58 to 1.81, so I had a pretty decent run. Got a couple Lash's, but I'll probably have to wait until next IB to reroll them, as I have literally 1 Mote in my inventory, which is a bummer. Anywho, what got under your skin this IB? Anything?
[b]EDIT:[/b] Here's what seems to be the top complaints according to you, my fellow guardians.
[b]1)[/b] DAT LAGGGGGGG.
[b]2)[/b] Suros, Thorn, and Vex (not surprising)
[b]3)[/b] Broken map design (imbalanced, crap spawns, etc.)
[b]4)[/b] Crap teammates
[b]5)[/b] Heavy ammo fails of various kinds (not waiting, not coming to it, etc.)
Let's keep it rolling, Guardians :)

What makes me angry in IB (or in 'general' Control Matches), is the lack of understanding what actually "control" means. It does not necessarily mean to control three zones. It essentially means control of the map itself. And this is accomplished the easiest by just having two zones, and have the other team come up to you. I absolutely hate it when people start switching the map. Or start going for the "wrong" zones. Having zone "C" on rusted lands equals losing that match in 90% of the games. Having zone "A" on Shores of time equals losing that match in 95% of the games. and so on and so on ... If somebody new to crucible does this - OK. But this happens almost every time with players of all levels. That makes me angry, and that's about it.

3 AntwortenThe worse is when I'm blade dancing a Titan, get in a couple chops in on him, and then....HE POPS HIS -blam!-ING FIST OF HAVOC!
-
The lag And I will say if you have a decent fireteam of 6 80% of the time your going to wreck

1 AntwortenA camping sniper that is getting cocky and dancing when I am using my close combat setup, the only thing that goes through my head is "Keep doing that, I dare you, make me pull out my sniper rifle, ill show you what camping really is." OR When I come across an ENTIRE 6 man team who are ALL using Hawkmoon and Shotguns, I encountered 3 of these teams.

1 AntwortenConstantly getting put into matches in progress only to be instantly down by 5k. No thanks Bungie. Instant quit.
-
When there's a two on one in your favor and teammate decides to just stare at you instead of taking a shot.
-
Has to be the lag I'm so tired of spotting an enemy well before they know I'm anywhere near them and emptying a full mag at them, only for their shield to stay full and they turn around and pop me . I even fired 30 or so MG rounds into a guy yesterday and he didn't budge, then he ran up and shotgunned me. What can you do, huh? :D
-
It's presence makes me angry.

With minutes to go I get a total of 2399 exp so yay I need to play an entire 10 minute match for 1 exp Then when I'm farming glimmer random people interrupt so as the 30 minute loading time for orbit and the tower resolves it's past reset Nothing better than destiny <3 best game of all time PvP, community, microphone usage, connections/latency, and more! Are all flawless. It's quite impressive Why hasn't this game been declared the flawless game already
-
Shitty connection and team mates that only go for kills and not the objective
-
Control in general.
-
I hate it when my team can't pull there shit together
-
Shotguns and teammates that pull heavy ammo for themselves
-
when I'm the only one in the team who goes straight to zone B rather than the easy capture right in front of the spawn point. 4 to zone B, 2 to the easy zone. WIN!
-
Connection issues! Never had any while i was down in a game but if were more than 2000 points in front my xbox live would disconnect Didn't get killed by vex a lot but thorn and plan C were big problems for me
-
Being matched to a fire team that is losing by half of what the winning side has.......Ferk that I`m outta here dont give me a fighting chance then by filling a place that someone else obviously vacated
-
I teabag when I know that are 100% mad just to make them even more mad or people who are jerks -after killing the jerk off(s) who are snipeing on that rock by C on shores of time -after killing a sunsinger who has just used their fireborn with shotgun/melee -after killing a voidwalker who misses their nova bomb -after killing a striker who fails with their fist of havok -after killing a striker mid shoulder charge with a shotgun -after killing a defender within their own ward (my personal favorite person to teabag) -after dodgeing shots of golden gun from a gunslinger then killing them -after killing a bladedancer mid arc blade with a shotgun/melee Too many iterations to list
-
What pissed me off the was that I had to work 9 straight shifts and couldn't play the banner at all.
-
I'm not saying I'm good or an elitist but it royally pisses me off when I see a level 22 stroll into Iron Banner. I was pushing it entering with a level 29 and felt bad for it. Level 22. ......FORGET ABOUT IT!

3 AntwortenBladedancers and fusion rifles. Not one God damn Hunter I've seen uses GG. why? I hate those invisible dancing fairies. Such assholes. And FR? HURRY AND NERF THE DAMN RANGE. and use your God damn primary for -blam!- sake.

1 AntwortenBearbeitet von Dog_Of_War_1138: 2/24/2015 5:50:40 AM1) The blatant and obvious lag switchers. Sometimes just one player (and you know who I'm talkin' about, Guido), sometimes an entire team. When you pour half a belt of machine-gun ammo into a Defender Titan from 20 feet away, then he disappears from your screen, only to show up from behind you and punch you to death, that is NOT a connection issue, it's a cheat. Not that it mattered, my team still won, & I still finished my Super Good Advice bounty. 2) The RNG, apparently. It was very very good to me, but judging by the Rewards List thread I started some people got nothing but blue engrams. 3) Would it have killed us to go to Exodus Blue once in a while? My favorite map next to Blind Watch? (At least we didn't have to deal with Asylum...)

Teammates that run to the other side of the map just to get picked off. This mainly happens in firebase delphi-whatever and it's frickin annoying.

2 Antworteni played IB all week, got to rank 5 and had alot of fun most of the time. My gripes, which were prominent, were: • The lack of different maps. Im on XB1 so its already limited but man did this get annoying. Playing the same map 3 or 4 times in a row then play another map once then the same map again 3 times. this is pathetic really and a good way to make the players disinterested. how hard would it be to make the playlist to NEVER repeat the same map twice. basic stuff really....why weren't all the possible maps on the IB playlist anyhow? • My fellow guardians having no idea how to collect/ protect/ hunt the heavy ammo drop. this is a gamebreaker. control the heavy and control the game (to an extent). Why do so many treat the heavy drop like its a disease?... other things like lag and having a team of scrubs annoyed me a little but in the end u cant help that too much

4 AntwortenWhen people cap A on blind watch! thanks for making the match that much more annoying buttholes.

6 AntwortenPeople who cap A on Blind Watch, C on Delphi, and A on Shores of Time.

When my team is full of banshee's that won't know how to defend/capture an objective if their life depended on it
