UpVote To Fix Mercy Rule

It takesssss wayyyyyy too long for it to kick in and sometimes it never kicks in and you will win 100-20. This makes people die over and over and over and its so sad. You have to get to 75 before they have 13 to mercy them. This is outrageous. Lower it please bungie so we have to get to 60 before they get 15. Even this little fix would make crucible more bearable.

  • I find it interesting that Bungie has stated they're aware of the issue as of one month post launch, and yet here we are in year 2 Forsaken, and it still isn't fixed. If there's greater than a 50 point deficit, and both teams are below 100, the enemy team is never coming back from that; and the mercy rule should proc. I had a game last night where my team won 97-15, that's just insane. The rule should have hit around 50-60 points. That way the losing team doesn't have to wait another minute before they're allowed to inevitably lose. If no one can agree on a scoring deficit that's appropriate, here's a suggestion. Allow members of the losing team to vote on whether or not to initiate the mercy rule. This means players are put in control, there's less of a likelihood of people quitting to orbit, and unfair games like the one above are far less painful.

  • The other day my team was winning 50-13 and all I could think was... mercy rule?

    This is something we are aware of. The PVP team is currently looking at the mercy system and ways to improve it. Thanks for the feedback.

      If they did something to fix the lag, and more importantly, hit detection. Teams wouldn't get slaughtered like that as much. I've had quite a few matches, where scores were like that. And almost every time, it feels like my weapons are killing the enemies way too fast. And it also feels like I could dance for a second while they shoot me, then turn and shoot them, and still win the engagement. But on the other hand, I've been in some matches where it was just the opposite... Where I ended up on the losing side of a score like that. I can pour a whole magazine of Uriel's Gift rounds into someone's head, and they just laugh it off like, "Haha! Oh wait, you're serious?!" So... IDK? Though, I have found that if I play in a full fireteam, with my clan, connections seem to be a lot better than when playing solo. I don't have near as many instances where my shots aren't registering, when I play on a fireteam. Idk if being in a fireteam puts less stress on the servers, or how it works? But I highly suggest playing on a team, if you seem to be having hit detection problems. Which kinda makes me sad, because I like playing with my clan, but sometimes I like to just hop on and roam around the crucible solo, when I don't feel like talking much.

      • [quote]Are you done grinding planetary tokens for that armor you wanted? Are you done grinding the gunsmith for that rare gun you want? Are you done grinding the easy new raid for that armor you want because the raid guns suck? Are you done grinding the crucible for your Better Devils? Are you done grinding Trials of the Nine tokens because you can't go flawless due to sweaties? [b]Well have I got the answer for you![/b] [b]Behold, IRON BANNER![/b] ([i]Now with 80% less iron[/i]) Grind endlessly for [u][b]new[/b] Samurai themed armor[/u] and guns with an [u]exclusive Iron Banner sticker[/u], but with the added urgency of a limited event making you grind harder than ever before! Enjoy the absolute worse this game has to offer, with unbalanced teams, bad spawns, and meta players using the most broken weapons. Fight an endless war of attrition against camping Warlocks with infinite health, or get killed in literally under a second by the Last Word 2.0. Enjoy the endless droning of sirens as the clan you solo-qued up against captures the entire map. Lose to teams with FIVE TIMES YOUR SCORE who have been spawn killing you for the past five minutes. Get killed by a rocket launcher before you're finished the spawn-in animation, or get cross-mapped by fusion rifles. Try to capture a zone while getting hit from 8 pulse grenades, which aren't at all over powered when compared to the other grenades. Discover how useless anything that isn't the meta really is, as you're killed by the Antiope, Uriel's Gift, MIDA, and Last Hope consistently. Learn how powerful Fist of Havok is as the only roaming panic-button super. Ask yourself why Bungie left the Hunter "Wombo-Combo" in the game, only to never use the wombo-combo again, as your super, Shadow Shot, is literally just Nova Bomb, but completely useless. Wonder what the point of player choice is, as you discover the "One Path to Victory" Shaxx is always talking about is simply playing the meta, with any semblance of skill optional. [b] But how is this better than the Iron Banners of old? [/b] The only difference between Iron Banner and regular Crucible? Gone. That pesky lore of the Iron Lords nobody cared about? Gone. The uniquely modeled weapons of previous Iron Banners? Gone. The ability to buy items as you progress? Gone. The chance to get Iron Banner items as an post-game reward? Gone. The ability to re-roll weapons? (bet some of you forgot about that) Gone. The rewarding experience of obtaining high level loot and powerful items? Gone. [b] All those toxic downsides of Iron Banner are now more dead than the Iron Lords. [/b] Instead, grind away for meaningless tokens for the RNG slot machine that gives no guarantee your time will be rewarded. Win low level gear and weapons with an [u]exclusive Iron Banner sticker[/u], with a Iron Lord's chance in a SIVA replication chamber of getting the [u]new Iron Banner exclusive [b]Samurai[/b] armor[/u], which doesn't match the theme of Iron Banner one bit. Listen to Overwatch easter eggs that remind you of better games you could be playing, and end your week feeling hollow for spending all your time grinding for the armor you wanted, only to get an endless supply of Iron Banner themed garbage sidearms. [b] Let us take a moment to thank Bungie for this event. [/b] This event that showcases every single flaw of Destiny 2. This event that showcases the faults of the Crucible. This event that showcases how unrewarding the game is. This event that has managed to royally piss me off. [b] Thank you Bungie. [/b] P.S. I'm never playing Iron Banner again...until some stupid new gear comes out and I force myself to endure more of this cancer and rip my hair out.[/quote]

        • take a look at this game, by the end I just sat it out. Props for the one guy who stayed in it for the whole game. Maybe the mercy rule should kick in somewhere between the 3rd and 7th guy dropping out. http://destinytracker.com/d2/pgcr/771068208

          • We won a game 100-22 last night. Should have been over way sooner. There is zero chance that other team had any fun, and all of them stayed to the end.

            • It's a waste of time about time they get around to fixing anything in this game half their player base will be gone out of the sheer fact that it's boring

              • I'm a bit stubborn, and bad, and solo queuer so I often find myself here. If it's 4v4 and there's no lag, we just bad and getting owned, then I want to play that to the bitter end! Maybe I'll learn something, or maybe finally get a non-lucky kill on the player that's ripped me a new one all game! If it's uneven sides, glitchy etc then yep, end it early, they must have a mechanism that can track this.

              • Also include LATE JOINING MERCY < People that join late get a % of super based on how many players on opposing team have theirs. Join late 15-70 then eat supers with no chance of getting one back? Give half a super bar to late players joining so there is a chance to come back or at least let off a revenge super before getting your two token......

              • I lost a game today 17-100. The so called matchmaking decided to put me in a 2v4 match and didn't add anyone in through the whole match. Matchmaking is just as broken as mercy.

                • I think it should also fit with the timer as well tho. When a team takes a 30 point lead with <1:30 left...there's no way to win just have to sit there and get... Spawn camped

                  • I don't see the issue with it, surely when you're 1v4 and the score is 8-46 before another person even joins your team this must be "working as intended"
