I miss year 1 PVP and year 1 PVE (BRING IT BACK!!)

99

Hey guys, this may be long so stay with me. In a nutshell, I miss year 1 pvp and some other aspects of year 1. I remember when pvp wasn't skill based it was the most fun I had ever had playing an online competitive game. Even though in year one there was the two burst messenger or the two tap headshot thorn or the op ads of last word, I still prefer that to the current state of the crucible. In the crucible now, if you are a decently skilled pvp player you are thrown into these matches with people who are just absolutely trying their butts off and sweating more than an old man at a strip club wearing a sweater, I am so tired of that. I want it to go back to the way it was in year 1 where they would be people of all skill levels and you could see the difference in the skill levels by looking at the postgame stats. Also, the lag has just been absolutely ridiculous at times, even worse than year 1. Also, remember in year 1 when you could steal heavy off of someone who died?? That was legit! You were rewarded for beating out another guardian with heavy by gaining their heavy. I would run around with corrective measure of zombie apoclaypse and own some guardians. Also, supremacy and rift are the worst gamemodes ever (for obvious reasons). Why were these game modes even implemented? I loved all year 1 game modes! The current meta in crucible is run around with a shotgun like a chicken with your head cut off and kill as many people you can before you get shotgunned; while on the special weapon rant, why nerf snipers? I've been sniping since year 1, but after all these nerfs I decided to switch to plan c and other fusions because screw shottys. I just want crucible to be enjoyable again with non skill based matchmaking and be able to carry a lot of ammo for special weapons again. Year 1 crucible had problems of course, but at least it was still fun!! Also these new maps arent my favorite. The video that mtashed made is exactly how I feel! PVE wise, I miss having a simple level system instead of all of this questing, sure this is great for newcomers and a lot of you may like it, but I am not a fan. Destiny wasn't ever a good story telling game so why implement a quest system? I miss when you had to grind for your gear and when you had to go out and search for materials to upgrade your armor (yes, I actually liked that). Or remember when primaries had elemental damage (VOC, Fatebringer, Fang of Ir Yut, or adept trials weapons), that was the best! Also, remember the joy of getting an exotic drop?? I used to freak out when I would get an exotic drop from a strike or from the VOG or Crota or Skolas. Three of coins has ruined that grind! I mainly miss the old pvp! I want year one crucible back! If you disagree, I respect that, but if you agree, thanks for understanding! Please bungo, try and get back to that year 1 glory in the crucible!! I love the game now, just not as much as I used to. Thanks for reading this if you did :)

  • Pvp is the most balanced it has been weapon wise but the issue is the map size we have too many maps that are asylum sized. For example thieves den, twilight gap, anomoly, cauldron etc. The perfect map size is widows court imo because it promotes sniping but because of the maneuverability available in destiny shotguns, side arms, and fusion rifles are still incredibly viable. Primaries give you a good variety with scouts, pulses, and handcannons being viable on this map depending on where you are engaging. Auto rifles still lag behind though.
