Battlegrounds are not strikes. I found them tedious when they were in season. It’s one thing to include Battlegrounds in the mix for bounties or even pinnacle progression that’s fine. Just don’t put it under the same umbrella. Give them their own destination.

They are in there as content filler. No one would play them otherwise. Plus I’m sick of the same strikes over and over. At least it breaks up the monotony.
-
Speak for yourself. I like battlegrounds, more so than strikes as they’ve been old for a while now.

Edited by SARS-COV-2 B.1.617.2: 3/18/2022 8:37:10 PMThey’re pretty much strikes. Kill enemies. Make your way to boss. Kill more enemies. Kill boss.

Each time that map comes up just leave. If we all do that Bungie will surely remove the map.
-
Nobody would play them. And they know. It turns out people like to be incentivized. Who knew.

15 RepliesThey go on too long. It's an instant leave when they pop up much like exodus down, corrupted, prison, new scorn strike, big Psion Nessus one. Fanatic. There's like four decent strikes to do. Lake of Shadows. Light blade Arms dealer Inverted spire Mainly cos you can melt the bosses and don't have to watch stupid immune pop ups for twenty minutes. Alakhul is just a funish strike.

That's why the strike playlist was renamed to Vanguard Ops. To include the old battlegrounds

I like the variety in the playlist. It desperately needed / needs more content. Would have preferred new strikes but hey, I'll take it.

I disagree[spoiler]crazy right[/spoiler]

2 RepliesEdited by The Rat King: 3/17/2022 9:32:35 AMI disagree. Toss PsiOps in there too. Strikes are worse than both Gambit and Crucible [b][u]in my opinion[/u][/b]. I’d rather have some random tedious or easy strikes(I don’t find most battlegrounds that bad except the one on Nessus with the Wyverns). Heck toss Nightmare and Empire Hunts in there too since they’re forgotten wastes of space content. [spoiler]If someone’s argument is “no I don’t want empire or nightmare hunts because their boring”. Most all strikes are boring, it changes it up a little and rather than it taking up space. Bungie should either use their resources or get rid of them/vault[/spoiler]

The one on nessus is the only long one that sucks as it’s very long, the one other 2 are not bad.
-
I disagree. Some of them feel more like strikes than strikes do. And regular strikes are so boring it's not funny, some being here for 5 years now. I think it was a good addition to the playlist and I hope the psi ops get placed into the playlist in the future too
-
We dont have a strike playlist. We only have vangaurd ops. You want to do strikes...then start a specific strike.

Tedious? Lol wow

They're better than strikes, it was a great idea to mix them in. Now if we could only get a better 6 man activity, like a sundial or menagerie that would be great. The last 2 (xur and wellspring) are lame.

Edited by Centaur-1: 3/17/2022 3:47:31 PMI love the new variety, but they really should’ve put two separate playlists for strikes and battlegrounds, then add one in the middle that contains both. I would pick Vanguard Ops any day but it’s always nice to have a choice.

Edited by Da Calibrator: 3/17/2022 3:27:16 PMI agree remove battlegrounds from the strike playlist. Strikes are far superior to battlegrounds they just need a refresh every now and then: just 2 per year may not be enough.
-
I like them, they are short which is great.
-
They are more fun then the older strikes, lot of enemies and alot of carnage. People play for different reasons i guess.
-
They don't bother me. They're basically the same length of a standard strike (excluding outliers like Lake of Shadows). I'd be annoyed if we weren't getting new strikes as well, but as it stands we lost two strikes and gained two that are actually pretty good. I'm cool with this system. My guess is they sunset the current battlegrounds come Lightfall and replace them with Psiops Battlegrounds.
-
Agreed

Edited by Artemis Luna: 3/17/2022 11:44:11 AMHonestly I don't mind BGs in the strike playlist too much but at the very least they could do with a couple tweaks like only having to destroy one or two shield generators at the start of the europa one instead of all three and removing one or both of the health gates on the boss at the end so you can melt the boss faster just like in most normal strikes.
