Bungie loves to bully their inferior players ... they like to pretend it's random, but it's not.

  • Its definitely not all that random. There's only so much the game can do if the playlist is about going flawless based at least somewhat on player level skill. This thing where people think that they are only supposed to get and not give is just not going to play out any other way than for people to be exposed to the reality of what they are doing. Everyone has to lose and everyone plays matches similar to that one. Although that is quite extreme.

  • [quote]This thing where people think that they are only supposed to get and not give is just not going to play out any other way than for people to be exposed to the reality of what they are doing.[/quote] This sentence gave me a stroke. Also, I dont want anything but better matchmaking. If I lose, I lose. The extreme example I shoed in my post is what Bungie needs to work on to make Crucible enjoyable. If I have to lose 50% of my matches...at least let them be close.

    Everybody wants better matchmaking. Which is why that stroke sentence says what it says. The game can very much force closer matches for you. But some other people might not like what that does to their experience. At a certain point you just shouldn't be able to have the game creating an experience based on you out of real people just so that you can have close matches.

  • Maybe it's the way you are phrasing things here, but it sounds like you are against better matchmaking so pub stomping can remain in the game so the top 5% of players can have a good experience. Also sounds like you are accusing me of being selfish. Trials dies when no one plays. No one played because A) Cheaters, and B) sweaty games. Bad matchmaking will force both types of players out of the game mode.

  • No that's not really what I'm trying to say. What I'm trying to say is that better matchmaking for you does not necessarily mean better matchmaking for everyone else. Just think about it for a second. If someone was playing a competitive mode and the game thought that they were playing frustrated and the game would have a hard time making a match for this person because the whole system can't be set up to be doing that for people constantly, how would it go about encouraging them to take a break without actually straight up telling them?

  • What does being frustrated for one match have to do with SBMM? One bad match out of 199 amazing matches should not lower a top 1% player down to my level. As well as me popping off for one match does not make me a top 1% player either. Anyway...have a nice day :)

  • You lost 7 matches in a row. Or at least that's what the picture says. There's only so much the game can do to tend to that and also give hundreds of thousands of other people a somewhat fair feeling experience based on how good they supposedly are. Its a competitive mode so it can't be always set to where matchmaking's only focus is on people losing. It also has to focus on the people improving and winning matches. You probably shouldn't have had to play that person but the difference in stats doesn't tell the whole story. The main reason you ended up playing that person is because of what's going on with the rest of matchmaking and the hundreds of thousands of other people playing. You have a nice day as well.
