This is what will happen if Bungie implements no point loss if you lose a team member: Bottom players on teams will be bullied to leave the matches so that top three do not lose points.

  • Just make it so losing glory isn't a thing just like valor. Problem solved. You go up with wins and go no where with losses. 5500 will still be a ridiculous grind that not very many people will achieve. Who will this hurt? No one. Well besides elitists but who cares about them.

  • I think the better solution is to ask that some people recognize they will not get the Glory rank weapons. Its really not a big deal.

    But the majority would. They would have to grind it out but with really nothing to go for PvP wise it gives incentive to play which is a good thing 😊. Having a healthier playerbase throughout the ranks is never a bad thing. Less people would just flat out give up. Like I said who will this hurt? No one besides elitists.

  • I think it hurts the game mode generally. If there is no incentive to compete and its just a time sink....people will not play the same way. There would be casual play throughout and people trying foolish loadouts. If the loss penalty is not in place there is no punishment for poor performance. The level of competition goes down and everyone gets a worse experience. Competitive is where you go to learn the ropes. You try to make adjustments when you lose and learn from your mistakes. Quickplay is for casual play. Its for using unorthodox loadouts and trying new strategies. Its 6v6 so there are plenty of targets and general mayhem. Competitive is where you go to sweat it out. This is especially true now that Trials is on hiatus. My two cents.

  • It's already a time sink. A ridiculous one at that. No punishment for poor performance? If you lose you literally go no where... that's a pretty big punishment already.. you literally just wasted your time. This whole game isn't competitive. If comp was competitive you wouldn't have ohk weapons/ abilities/ supers/ and a metric ton of heavy ammo. You would still have to sweat to hit 5500. The top players would still be there along with a few others that have taken the time to grind it out adapting to the play styles of the top players then beating them.

  • I mean...it would certainly make it easier for me to get the 'Unbroken' title. I am going to have a hell of a time hitting Legend even once.

  • Right. It would still be a ridiculous grind regardless. Either way it's a massive time sink... one more so then the other which turns off a lot of people reducing the player pool drastically... last I checked that was one of the major problems of many with comp.

  • Teammates will then begin to DDOS each other to save the rest of the teams glory points. That would be a sad day.

  • hopefully that wouldn't happen too often. I agree that it's not a simple issue to fix - maybe they should just remove the loss penalty altogether idk all I know is that the current system feels unfair if people leave. Should comp be fair though? I think it should personally or at least as close to fair as possible

  • I hear ya. We had a Survival game today where one of our teammates went afk when we were up 3:1. In what should have been the last round he D/C'd from the game. He had his super powered up and the other team came back because they got all of theirs in the following rounds. Infuriating.
