GET REKT, SCRUB

"We’ve seen you backing out of matches on final approach in your ships because you saw formidable opponents on the other team. That tactic could earn you a restriction from future Trials of Osiris events. Please stick it out and fight – even if you know you’re about to be visited by tourists from the Lighthouse." - DeeJ, Weekly Update 6/4/15 I don't give a -blam!-. I don't owe that other team my time. I don't owe them my ass to stomp. If [i]your[/i] matchmaking system pushes me against a group that severely, [i]obviously[/i] outclasses my group of guys that has yet to get to the Lighthouse, I don't - nor does anybody else - [i]owe[/i] them our deaths. Our penalty is on our card in the form of the loss we take. If you have a problem with people backing out of these matches, [i]then don't count them as a Win for the other team[/i]. Trials of Osiris has some serious design flaws. [i]Solve them.[/i] UPDATE: I should have edited this sooner, I apologize. I am aware of the Change Character exploit some folks may have been doing to avoid a loss. I was admittedly fuzzy on this issue when I initially posted. I believe a lot of my argument still stands, however, and, as others have noted in their replies, Trials of Osiris needs something done to its matchmaking. A simple step in matching Lighthouse Veterans to other Lighthouse Veterans, for instance, would do loads of good in evening the competition by placing the Proven against the Proven, and the Aspiring against the Aspiring.

  • [quote]I don't give a -blam!-. I don't owe that other team my time. I don't owe them my ass to stomp.[/quote] It is the trials, not just pub crucible. You don't get to pick and choose your battles here. Either enter the trials and fight whoever you face, or don't enter at all. There is absolutely zero tolerance for cowardice in the lighthouse. I am glad Bungie is taking a stand on this. For far too long honorless losers have been preventing online gaming from reaching the potential it has. Rage quitting, cherry picking, disconnecting mid match. All the little tricks tired losers pull to literally steal victory from players who are better.
