Two different Iron Banner gamemodes for solo play and fireteams

To put it simply, anytime you're running solo or two man fireteams, the rest of your team are just solo players and you're going up against a 6 man Iron Banner fireteam, they're going to wipe the floor with you. So a suggestion I have to help alleviate this is as follows; have two different IB gamemodes. The first is Iron Banner as we already know it, nothing more, nothing less. The second is Iron Banner where having fireteams of more than one player is disabled, period. You cannot enter this gamemode if you have a fireteam of 2 players or more. I've been on both sides of a power imbalance due to a large and skilled fireteam; I've been wiping the floor with players left and right with my buddies, and I've had other teams wipe the floor with me when I'm playing solo. It's fun when you're the fireteam that's destroying everybody, and it's frustrating when you're the solo player that can barely fight back. If you wanted to run solo but still wanted to play with other fireteams, you'd just join the first gamemode, it's not like it's restricted to fireteams only, it's just that fireteams cannot join the second gamemode.

  • I agree 100% . The people that don't are the ones that think pub stomping an un-coordinate team takes "skill".

    • No. They need specific level iron banner. 20-25,25-30,30+. Tired of level25 0.05 kill death. Or even zero kill death, and that's why we lose.

      • The benefit of having a fireteam is just as you describe it: better team-play. You can always get in your own fireteam and reap the benefits, too..

        • A more realistic solution is to have the system prefer to match fire teams vs fire teams. Ie... the system would prefer a 6 team vs 6 team or 6 and 2 three member fire teams.. etc. If the system is taking a 6 member team and not attempting to match with another I do agree that is awful. Use the LFG at PlanetDestiny to help you find a fire team for IB. It makes all the difference when your team mates call out things, orb locations, and other things.

              • Facing a fire team as solo player is not automatically a loss when you random team mates have an idea what they are doing. Saw enough matches where the fire team lost to the randoms. Ok, saw also enough matches where the fire team won decisive ,)

                  • i totally agree, not only do these teams OP iron banner they run crucible and do the same how about bungie match 6v6 and if there is not a 6 let them wait till there is,you just get dropouts and the opposing team has no fun when a 6 man team just nerfs supers for an entire match
