I know that I am not the only one who is tired of playing try hards who 5-0 everyone and I also know a good amount of PvP players who would like to see a list for these types of players to play each other. My suggestion is this.
[b]1[/b]. When a person goes flawless during the week (on the current character, so they could go flawless 3x a week on the normal list) they are not allowed to play normal mode trials. Instead they are put into a new trials match making list, (Lets call it hard mode trials). This hard mode trials list lets players keep all of their special ammo each round. The rounds are extended. To win the game you must win 7 rounds instead of 5. 2 heavy rounds, R2 and R5, 1 crate per round and crates spawn in at a random point with no counter showing the location. The capture zone moves each round, and captures slower. No scope glint, no radar and no revive. Exotic weapons allowed. Match making based on wins. Sides flip each round.
Upon ultimate completion a new chest is available in the lighthouse, this chest would give players a new exotic emblem, armor set would be adept and provide bonuses to the user. Player would get 2 adept weapons. Players who beat this mode get a PvP gain bonus that boosts their rep and experience gained during the week by 25% and would have flaming fists. Twice-three times as much loot as normal mode.
[b]2.[/b] For normal trials, all players start with this list during the week. No exotic weapons allowed. Special ammo is lost on death. Matching is random. Capture zone spawns in random spot. Sides flip each round. Heavy round spawns two crates again.
Upon flawless completion players get the normal loot they get now. Essentially this box would become a tier 2 chest. All gear is adept.
[b]3.[/b] When a player goes flawless, the lighthouse is permanently unlocked as a social space but they can only get the chest there if they go flawless.
[b]4.[/b] Lighthouse venders are added, including one to buy your card for the week. Kiosks to reclaim lost gear.
[b]5.[/b] [b]In all social areas[/b] there is an area to find a group to play with, just a basic LFG. LFG can show all game mode stats.
[b]6.[/b] Lastly Osiris could bring exotic weapons and gear that are built specifically for PvP once a week like Xur does and you trade him passage coins to buy the loot.
Comment which Ideas you like and don't like.
I think this would get rid of the paid carries from people and make this fun mode more enjoyable for everyone who plays this game and would like to see the lighthouse before D2 comes out. I know my 600+ Friends list on my PS4 would be a lot more active in this game again.
Lets start a healthy conversation about what bungie can do to get people playing Destiny again and making trials a fun mode for everyone who is just a casual gamer.

Edited by PandaPapa146: 4/17/2017 3:08:31 PMTrials is a fun run for a bunch of m8s to do the bounties, and, see how far they can progress! 5 wins is great...7 wins is a hoot...and if they make it to 9 wins - the Lighthouse beckons! 🤡 However, here's the problem(s)... 1. ELO / KD farmers - spoilsports of the first order; these twats stomp Casual teams then burn the card asap to 'capture' the next round of blueberry cannon fodder. And they do this over and over and over... 2. Stompers - who feel it is their mission to deny anyone (Casuals, mostly) the chance to progress. They sport (flaunt) every bit of flawless gear/guns...and, here's the best bit: they actually think they're cool. 😂 3. The Real Elite - top-class players that deliver a brief, brutal, lesson in Trials gameplay. This is an education and much can be learned. They are NOT twats (like those mentioned above), though they are few and far between. Often, these players will spot the noobs, and help them on to the next round by noble deeds and self-sacrifice. 👍 Trials needs a tiered system; I've posted about this many times. In summary: [b]Tier 3:[/b]All players to accumulate 9x wins throughout the ToO contest, 1x win per a/c = Lighthouse trip for current rewards. Then, fir those that want more, proceed to... [b]Tier 2:[/b] 9x wins as per current Flawless requirements (9:0) available on 3x characters / a/c / ToO contest = extra rewards (shaders / emblems). Then, for anyone maxed out on T2 rewards/wins, proceed to... [b]Tier 1:[/b]here, the best teams duke it out for highest number of Flawless Wins (No Limit) = Top Team's name(s) indelibly inscribed on Crucible Wall of Fame (in Tower, tbd) + super-exclusive shader/emblem. And this will get more Casuals to play Trials; let the Stompers meet their own kind; and inspire the truly great teams to even greater competitive heights! Everyone wins! 🤖
