Recent Competitive Changes

So without more information, I can't be certain of the exact changes made to Competitive Matchmaking. One thing is certain though. Bungie, I am not having fun anymore. I have the feeling or perspective that most of my games are a complete stomp. I personally tracked my games pre and post patch, and there is a drastic difference between the results. I don't know if I am simply not as good as I hoped I was, or what, but it's just demoralizing now. I feel like each game is a stomp in one direction or the other. I either sprint through the enemy team, not having to let go of the forward key for longer than it takes to turn around and kill the next guy, or get smashed, trying to get picks while a team of navy seals perfectly flank and hunt me down. It might be a losers mentality, but I can't help but feel a lack of quality teammates. I tried playing with friends but the people we matched with, no harm intended, felt like they didn't have the same understanding of the game we did. There was no objective control, heavy control, or even team work. Multiple times we would be in an intense fight, down to the wire, one guy left no shields, and look up to see our teammate on the other end of the map running around, or challenging 3v1. I don't know what changed, and maybe I suck, maybe I deserve to be with the players who jump off cliffs on accident and challenge every outnumbered fight, or quit if we lose a round. I certainly hope not, but that's how it feels right now. An honestly Bungie, it makes me not want to play. Which sucks, because right now I feel like there aren't many games at all worth playing. Destiny's rich lore and fun combat make me feel at home but whatever happened a week ago is killing it. Thanks for your time

    Trust, It feels like they turned up the heat from gas mark 200 to 400. It feels even more sweaty. It doesn't matter if I leave matchmaking and restart it because the game has decided I'm playing a four stack. It happily puts me up against the same team over and over. I don't mind playing a four stack. But when it's every game it's just not fun. I seem to play now without a hope in hell of getting some kills which leads to me being aggressive and just doing as much damage in attempt to get some kills. If I dare play skilfully and patiently I feel like I get punished one way or another. And the team mates oh that's a story for another game let alone time. I've just returned to Destiny 2 a month or less ago and since this update, I just can't do it anymore. I want to like this game I just struggle to do it. This said I do prefer the win/loss streak system in place. God forbid if they did include that in this update as I would be in negative points.
