Salvage is the Absolute Worst Game Mode

My hate for this Game mode is massive. Its completely broken. Edit: To everyone saying to play with a team or don't play solo, I have friends I play with that are competent players. And No I don't solo capture unless the whole team has been wiped.

    You do know that Bungie has already said they are changing the way Salvage is scored in RoI right? It's a few more weeks. Just avoid until then if it bothers you thst much. I agree though..the scoring needs to be changed...which is why Bungie is doing it.

  • I agree that it should rotate in maybe. At least to replace Freelance 6v6 or whatever the other terrible mode is. Salvage needs to be reworked scoring wise. Perhaps a small amount of points for capturing and more points for completing the capture. I don't know but it is annoying playlist to me as well. People simply play skirmish instead of the intended mode. I say replace it with Supremacy and move on...or Mayhem anything.

    It's harder to salvage than to disable. I play solo all the time. Defender makes it FUN. AoL, NBP, suppression nades! Bastion! Take the probe, defend a quarter to half of the way through. Pop bubble. Roaming super? Phucc you! FoH? Nova? I'm not in the bubble for that bullchit brah... Titans after FoH are cannon fodder. Nova users are getting blasted. By the time you hit the ground after popping my bubble you've got too many slugs in you bredda. You took the probe? Pfffft! You can't kill me while I'm disabling it. Bubble's up son. You will try... Even after I've shut it down... You will try. Take these shotgun pellets chump. What are we talking about again???

    • Most people don't go for the relic.

    • When capping the relic, if you have all three guardians in the circle, you get 100 points each, or 300 points. If the enemy team compromises the relic before the salvage is complete, they get 250, so you still net 50 points. When two or less guardians cap the relic, you are giving away points. Don't solo cap! This would be an easy fix if Bungie just made it an automatic 300 team points to cap, regardless of how many on the team are in the circle.

      • Pretty much everyone plays it as skirmish.

        • The problem with Salvage is that salvaging the relic and disrupting it nets about the same amount of points, yet it is MUCH harder to salvage than disrupt. There is no incentive to actually hold the relic. Salvaging the relic should be worth 2 or 3 times the points as a disrupt.

          • i pretty much hate all the game modes except control and to a lesser extent clash because it's faster. I hate all the bounties that require me to play stuff other than control or clash. If the bounty has skirmish, salvage in it i just don't attempt it because i play solo and it can take forever if you get stuck with bad teammates and sometimes it takes forever to cue into a game. Oh and often you get matched against 3 man teams which makes it even harder if you're just soloing to knock out a bounty.

          • I was playing salvage with my friend and we both got 18+ kills with a 2.00+ k/d but we lost because we didn't disarm 1 salvage point, the team that one both had negative k/ds and the person who had the highest amount of kills only had 9 kills lol.

              • I actually have no problems with salvage. Play it the correct way and capture relics, its like a miniature version of control. Don't and just have really long skirmish matches? Great, more kills is more fun. Perfect for sweats as well

              • I actually really like it. The only problem sometimes is that people don't like to capture the salvage point and it turns into a long Skirmish match.

              • To be honest I only play salvage rift and rumble with the occasional skirmish in classic 3v3 and of course trials but i find that it is kind of difficult going solo but even if your team is competent it won't help much because the people that play salvage now are the people who like to run sweaty games pretty much.

              • translation: i do not understand how salvage works so i constantly solo-cap points and lose to teams who do. and i will never blame myself.
