The Trials begin on Friday and last till Tuesday. For those who have played Crucible often, you know the stress of the Crucible and it's unbalanced gameplay. But add a exclusive 3v3 skirmish SnD/SnR event that requires you to not lose three times, which ends your trials passage card if it does come to that, and you have yourself a challenging and nerve-racking game mode. Even the best Guardians out there have something they hate in Crucible. Imagine some of these examples of what I'm worried about.
- A team that all use the same weapons. (Popular guns like Thorn, Felwinters Lie, Red Death, Jolders Hammer, Hawkmoon, Last Word, etc)
- A team that runs the same class type.
- A team that is all Level 34 vs a lower level team (even though I'm a level 34 Warlock so I guess it would be if my friends aren't 34)
- A team that hides majority of the time (I honestly wouldn't care much but hey, it's considered a strategy apparently).
Even though you only face a fireteam once and get matched up with a new team [b](remember, ToO does not have matchmaking so you'll need to find a group to play with in a fireteam of 3)[/b], these are just a few I am concerned about. But this isn't about my fears, this thread was designed to share yours.
[b]what is your fear(s) for the upcoming Trials of Osiris?[/b]

[b]Edit:[/b] 200+ replies and I am already seeing that many are nervous about the following mostly.
#1 Lag (though this one is true, Bungie said something about better connection or something similar to that for the Trials)
#2 Thorn (oh, the irony)
#3 Felwinters ([b]super[/b] ironic)
#4 Sniper Rifles w/ Final Round (Oh snap. Forgot about that mess of a storm)
#5 Blink Shotgun Combo (again, ironic...)
#6 Disconnection (this actually will only be a problem if you get disconnected from the entire servers which returns you to the title screen. If you get removed during the match, don't panic. Bungie will be testing their new match recovery system for ToO. You'll get a message that will ask if you want to attempt to reconnect to the match)

2 AntwortenWas at round 9 with 2 losses and bungie pairs our group up with a lagging team. Take a wild guess on who won -.- such a waste of time!
-
Honestly We are seeing the community turn to toxicity where stats are going to be an important factor thus driving out casuals and you will have only the hardcore group left. GG Bungie

1 AntwortenGot the same team two times back to back who completely OBLITERATED me

1 AntwortenI have no mic so i wont be able to do it so...........

4 AntwortenShoulder charge. I honestly didn't expect it to be this of all things, but when you can't respawn and there's only three of you it suddenly becomes far more scary than the likes of Thorn. Also any sniper rifle. We came across a team that just sat on the far side with snipers. -blam!-ing hellish.

Being 8-0 and losing one, therefore being unable to go to the Lighthouse... but that doesn't matter because I'm not bad!
-
Finding a team thats good enough -.-
-
Thorn, TLW, and spammers.
-
Lag switchers with their entire team running thorn... Just had it happen to me... How do I know they were lag switching?... Red bar during the game... Green once it ends
-
No fears. It was easy as hell. If you know how to play 3v3. For someone who has almost 500 wins in skirmish. It was easy. Flawless x3 within 2.5 hours.

4 AntwortenNever finding a good clan and being stuck with randoms for the rest of time.

Thorn. And my fears have been confirmed. Engrave my tombstone now.

My biggest worry is sunsinger warlocks, after having done 3 flawless passages we encountered a few sunsingers who would pop it, its only frustrating because you have to kill them again
-
1 AntwortenI'm gonna go into the regular crucible while the cats are away and wreck noobs to farm crucible marks for a new dead shot luna.

Took a team consisting of one 33 and two 32s into Trials today. Our first game we beat a team of three 34's, 5-4. It's all about communication and awareness.
