The least fun crucible experience ever
Competitive is so bad at the moment. The new meta brings to mind the Mida team shotting issue, as stack teams are running graviton and camping in the safest spot in the map. If you play solo is even worse because no one uses team chat to give callouts, so with no radar, horrible fx to give you any indication of enemy location (who can be right on top of you by the time you actually hear them jump) and no team communication, you are as good as dead if you step in the wrong place for a flank.
And the thing is, when I play solo I get pairedwithstack teams,when I play with a team we get paired with randoms who pose no threat really... Don't really understand this matchmaking...
So yeah... Comp feels like a sweat fest and not fun at all...
Solo ranked ora less detailed radar (like the one from Titanfall or CoD, whereyouget pinged the enemy location when they make noise would be better imo).
TLDR: the meta is worst than it was pre-patch, competitive is boring and the matchmaking algorithm is really bad.

It’s not just comp, Quickplay has been made so much less fun with streaks. What was meant as a fun & relaxed playlist is just made stressful from the pressure to keep winning & progress faster. Once I get that goddamn shell, I’m only going into PvP for IB. I really hope they make big changes to PvP in September. I used to love PvP in D1, but now it’s just not fun & only catering to the 1% who have become so concerned with winning that they forgot to have fun with the game.

I agree. I've lost all love for PvP. I suffer through it for milestones and to collect

3 RepliesI have a great time with it, just gotta get a team to go into competitive. You can still compete without the meta to, just my opinion and I know everyone dosent agree but I know I don’t have to put the vw or gl in my hands to win.

Just use what's op at the time. Bungie will soon nerf the 2 exotic pulses and we'll find something else to use.

5 RepliesIf you're not using graviton Lance or vigilance wing you're pretty much screwed as you get teamshotted by the two best guns in the game by full teams

I'm not moving away from mida/uriel... But yes someone mentioned that people feel like pansies. It's the truth I can relate somewhat. D1 I would rush with last word thorn and felwinter. Now when I grab heavy I wait with my shotgun. That is just the safest way to get kills cause even when enemies see the feed and they see someone grabbed heavy, they see red on the radar, they always got confidence and will try to rush you down... interesting psychological concept but it works out for me... I miss the old d1 days though. I remember a lot of peeps complaining about d1 PvP but now, it wasn't that bad compared to this mess...

5 RepliesHaving long range weapons be the meta will always be boring. I prefer using a sniper over everything else but god DAMN did I hate how people played during the sniper meta in destiny 1. Close range weapons are infuriating, but I hate it when people play like pansies to win the game. I know it's a pulse and it's their job, but i can't believe how boring it is to fight. I guarantee that if vigilance wing and graviton Lance didn't get buffed like they did, the crucible would have been ok. Bungie better fix those 2 weapons, or literally everything else that can't compete, and we all know what it's going to be.

10 RepliesEdited by Siniskamikaze: 5/23/2018 3:42:39 AMNo. Stop complaining because you can’t use your mind for once. Competitive isn’t for losers that want to run all alone against an enemy team with a strategy. I don’t play much competitive ( yet ) but i would never ask for changes because “the enemy team sits in the back armed with [ insert meta weapon here ] “ . First of all you can use the same weapon. Second of all if they all “sit in the back” then you know exactly where they are and that is actually an ADVANTAGE in a no-radar mode. Time your flanks better - lure people to you - use grenades - make up a strategy. It is not that hard and it is not Bungie’s fault that you don’t know how to play in a competitive enviroment.

2 RepliesSomebody says this exact same thing after each balance patch. The fact is, it just isn't true. I really don't see how people think PvP is just getting worse and worse. They've done so many good changes. Changes that will fix a lot of the problems people have talked about. Then people like you have to come on the forums and shit on all of the good changes made. I would care about what you have to say, but I'm sick and tired of doing that. I've done that enough for people like you who never stop complaining.

Wrong, this is the best crucible experience ever
-
Was there ever a moment where the meta was perfect? -blam!- that, was it ever good? It’s really not that bad.
-
I just do Quickplay. I've learned from bitter experience that radical PvP changes rarely enhance the experience. At least D2 offers a change. D1 pretty much destroyed its entire Crucible.
