I understand why people like rift.. it completely takes skill out of the game.. the guy who camps the spark and just runs with it gets more points then anyone else. Seriously it promotes bad players to think they are good at a game type. just sad. If bungie wants to balance things balance this game type out of destiny. Thanks for ruining Iron Banner bungie on this one.

Edited by CannyJack: 1/27/2016 3:36:05 PMThe thing about Rift -- which is far from my favorite game mode -- is that it is not about [i]your[/i] performance. It's about your team's performance. You can even define positions (runner, wing, fullback, whatever) on a Rift team where it's not necessary or even possible for any other game mode. So yeah, your runner is going to have the highest score on the team -- that part of the game. If you have a runner who's good, then your best strategy is to let them run it (it's much better than having everyone swirling around the spark competing to get it; that's asking for a triple-down). They'll get shitloads of points, but the goal here is to win the match, so if they're dunking on the enemy, that's a good thing. When it's time to get your bounty done, you ask if you can run it; otherwise, do what you're good at. If you can shoot the mans good, then for pete's sake get out in front and shoot the mans, and let your runner bring in the points.

I'm not sure how you figure a team of 'good' players would allow a 'bad' player to camp the spark and actually take it, let alone allow them to score with it.

Who said score. You get points for holding it and a bad player can easily get it and take it while good team mates are killing everyone. My point is the guys clearing and killing get nothing compared to the jockey hiding with it. They get double the points. You should get points for clearing and guiding a runner. Like black ops 3 with their new game type

You don't get points for holding it, you get points for making progress. In order to make forward progress with the spark you have to be tactful. Also, there is no reward for having a high score. It is a team based game mode and the winning team wins, no matter the individual scores.
