I personally don't feel like it is, no objectives may promote camping. I won't be surprised to see people camping their own spawn with snipers and only occasionally venturing forward for special ammo.
What are your opinions? Would it have been better off still being control? Or another game mode?
[b][i]EDIT[/i][/b] Some very good points being made in favour of clash, obviously the blueberries having no clue of holding objectives in control was a major drag for everyone who knew to hold flags. Kills only should (you'd expect) be easy enough for those random teammates.
[b][i]EDIT 2[/i][/b] A lot of guardians happy for the change, which I totally agree on, many happy that they won't have to rely on blueberries to play objectives too, again I agree.
As we all know, the standard of players in the banner compared to regular crucible (barring daily modes) drops slightly, do you feel it is easier to carry a team to victory despite only a few going positive K/DRs?
[b][i]EDIT 3[/i][/b] Nice to see so many of you with constructive comments and reasoning to your choices, only a few toxic comments, who, with their stats, will not be enjoying the banner regardless of game type.
I'm definitely looking forward to challenging some of you guardians during the event and maybe even seeing you owning as the blueberries on my team too.
Most of all, I hope the banner blesses you all with good RNG (yes even the toxic commenters), we all know how bad it can be.
[b][i]EDIT IN PLAY[/i][/b]
Well as we all know banner has arrived. And whilst I'm enjoying the change. Playing alone provides new challenges other than the mode itself. I've had to almost literally carry teams to a win on a few occasions and it's definitely not as fun (for me) as it used to be. If any of you are finding difficulty getting a group together for PS4 send me a pm and we could run together. My stats are available (PS not much history as was a new account)

4 AntwortenThere are certainly advantages to the change, but with how much everyone has been hating snipers lately, I could definitely see this one being Iron Sniper.
-
its worth trying out for a week.
-
1 Antwortenyes, I believe it is because unlike in Control, in Clash your individual performance and/or skill makes a lot more impact on how the match ends this change is imo going to be welcomed especially by solo-players
-
1 AntwortenYes because if you play by yourself then there are stupid people who throw themselves at the flag just to capture it. They also keep flipping the spawns and try to capture all 3 flags. I mean seriously how stupid can the players be? I am guessing that 2 good players will be able to carry the whole team to victory

Control is my favorite game mode, but I think some variety in the play of Iron Banner can only serve to make playing it more compelling. I can see going back and forth between control and clash, but I hope they do not try to inject themes like inferno into it.

Bearbeitet von Zargon: 11/13/2015 6:58:07 PMConsidering the majority of fps players only play non-object based game modes, yes it is.

Yes, for variety.

1 Antwortenyes because I hate control

Insert explanation here

1 Antwortenis it control and clash or just clash now?
-
Clash makes it easier to have an impact individually. Aka if you get beamed into a losing game you have a better chance to comeback. Also they buffed the rep gain so it's even less grindy than before. Controlling a zone space is a problem for many. Now you just have to control your character.

1 AntwortenI personally believe it should rotate around all the 6v6 modes: Clash, Control, Zone Control, and Rift.
-
Best move they did Clash is my favourite game mode and I pushed for iron banner clash It's a dream that came true
-
It's a change of pace
-
1 AntwortenI think it should switch between the two every iron banner. You jump into a lobby play a few game of clash then it switches to control. Been thinking that for a while now.
-
1 AntwortenI mean, nobody does the objective anyways
-
I just want Iron Banner to include more than just one game mode... it gets pretty boring after a while.

3 AntwortenIs homemade coat hangar abortions a good move?
-
4 AntwortenBecause -blam!- you.

Control was a very slow game type in previous IB events. Get 2 zones straight away and stale mate the game. Control was extremely frustrating. At least with Clash Ill be able carry dumb teammates to victory. Few randoms know how to play an objective game type correctly.
-
It'll be nice to see it switched up, 1 year of control is more than enough. It'll make it easier to work towards Clash wins for the grimoire.
-
6 person elimination. Nuff said.
-
1 AntwortenHell no. Campfest. Literally nothing for all the folk who suck at crucible,but play IB for the rewards, to do, other than die a lot. Should be good for the better players though, easier to carry all the scrubs.
-
Eh, its honestly not going to be a huge play style shift for me either way.
-
Yes. More opportunities for a good player to carry if he has a terrible team instead of just losing since no one on your team can play obj
-
Yes because all of iron banner was is people just going for kills and not playing objectively. At least they can actually contribute to the team more with their only killing-no capping mentality
