Checkmate is aight but -blam!- does the balancing of players feel HORRID

Feels like the worlds worst slug through nothing but teamates who need to look at their hands to tell left from right mid game vs top percent players isnt exactly a fair or fun experience Your lobby balancing system is flawed bungie anyone with eyes and a calculator can see it please for the love of god rework it

  • Welcome to Bungies optimal PvP experience. Where if you’re half decent at the game, even a sliver of decent. Bungie expects you to carry your team of Jimmies against gods themselves. Check out my recent games, had a few today but I think the one in Vostok, yeah that was the worse. And a few days ago on Javelin 4 where I legit went a 8KD and the 5 man I got put in, not one of them broke positive.

  • They removed team balancing since last rework of trials, it's now completely random, which is probably more fair, because at least I don't get the both worst players in the lobby all the time, at least it's random now and everyone can get either lucky or unlucky

  • Tell me about it brother I get two 0.5’s on my team vs a team of solo 1.8 players it’s so forced it’s actually annoying. But other than that trials has been fun with checkmate

  • There is NO lobby balancing in trials now. That was removed a LONG time ago. Matchmaking is COMPLETELY random in the challenger pool, along with who you get as teammates in a lobby.

    • Something with SBMM is literally the only way to fix it. They need to keep all players, as much as possible, within 0-1 overall k/d difference up or down from each other. Anything more is too much. Going up to 1.5 k/d difference feels like really pushing it, but might be ok. Best to not try and push these particular things. Problem is how hard it is to get matchmaking with that, but that's more a problem of them kind of destroying much of the game for vast amounts of people with a shrinking playerbase. It takes a bit to even get PvE matchmade now for Vanguard Ops. There probably isn't any real way of saving it at this point. I think they waited too long to separate sandboxes, and by then the damage was already done and started snowballing. Hard to get that to stop.

        • Checkmate is a new mode... The changes will play into some people's strengths and others will find it more troublesome being without their special weapon until they grab kills. You could in theory be in the 'better stats team' and lose 5-0 because the two other guys were shotgun apes and found themselves greatly disadvantaged when using hand cannons.
