Matchmaking overhaul

Some of you are wondering why I'm suggesting that Matchmaking should be overhauled. And here's my explanation In every single piece of promotional material that was released since before Destiny launched, we've seen all three classes represented: Titan, Hunter, Warlock. However, when we get into matches, the fire teams are far, far from what we've seen in promotional material. Teams will often consist of several of one class. And in most cases, that's problematic. As an example, the day before The Taken King dropped, I was in a match on Blue Exodus, where the opposing team consisted of Titans, and one or two Warlocks. The Titans were rolling the Defender sub-class, and camped in the back left corner of the map, dropping bubbles one after another, while my team was unable to make any headway. It was a shutout match, with the opposing team winning. I don't know about anyone else, but I hate shutout matches. Members of my team started to drop out of the match, and I don't blame them for doing so. So my suggestion would be for Matchmaking be overhauled with a new system that looks at the classes so that when matches start, there are two of each class, Two Hunters, Two Titans, Two Warlocks. The overhaul would even take it one step further by looking not only at the class, but also at the subclass. If the matchmaking system worked this way, you would have two of each class, but no class would be using the same subclass. For instance, if you had two Hunters, neither would be able to use Gunslinger at the same time. One could use Gunslinger, but the other would have to either use Nightstalker or Bladedancer. I'm open to discussion on how this would work, if at all, but please be civil with your responses. Thankyou and Game on!

  • The population is much smaller now than it was a year ago. That makes being picky about matchmaking for classes/subclasses problematic. What about unbalanced parties?

    • That's really just a dumb team you got stuck with. If the titans are going to just sit in their bubble then camp out and charge your super then wreck the party. The whole team needs to hang back and mow down anyone that steps out of the bubble but some people are just too stupid and keep attacking the bubble which is probably making orbs for the other team.

      • Or... I would first fix the matchmaking so it doesn't put you into matches that are being Mercy Ruled or games that have a huge score gap and ends up into unwinnable/unlosable game
