Holy crap, Scorched is what crucible needs to be. Fun as hell, no concern for OP weapons or abilities, just you, a gib cannon, and a buncha bad motha's with their own gib cannons. No worry about balance, no matchmaking worry, no nothing. Just pure, unadulterated fun. This is the only time I've not only done my Call To Arms right away, but kept playing after the fact.
There are some issues, but nothing terribly cumbersome. Mainly, it seems as though titans and warlocks have a huge floaty advantage. Perhaps with some more time in here we'll see all the classes find a balance, but titans and warlocks are definitely the biggest threat currently. Also, some of these maps aren't great for this mode, particularly seeing as it is currently a rumble game type. Some maps are just way to big. Others, though small enough for rumble, leave me feeling claustrophobic with the tight hallways and such. You need to be able to move, and unless you're outside on a map like burnout, you're not going to have a good time.
Rounds feel short and frenetic, leaving the respawn timer a little lacking. I want to get back in the action immediately. This may be a design choice, and it isn't necessarily bad, but it was something I noticed.
One strange thing I saw, there appeared to be a scorch cannon just floating on one of the maps, no way to interact with it, no tooltips, just an odd artifact.
Finally, can we get this mode in private matches? Pretty please? I can imagine lots of fun to be had there.
Good job guys. More insane fun, less intense sweatfest competitive bullshit that very few people care about.
