In the past 7 days alone, I've run into well over 40 people running a full meta loadout - Shotty, Luna's/NF, Wardcliff, OEM, Nova Warp, Shards of Galanor, I've seen it all. In [i]quickplay[/i].
Quickplay is really the only place lower skilled players have to actually enjoy the Crucible. Now with the meta swarming Quickplay like it's the goddamn plague, I have friends who are subpar at best who won't even touch Crucible because of the sheer amount of sweat in quickplay.
At this point it feels like I'm playing against zombies or NPCs instead of actual people.
Quickplay has become no different than Comp and it's sad. I'm in the last stretch before I get my Broadsword(I only now bothered to get it after seeing how close I was to finishing the quest), I'm at Mythic 2 on my last reset and I just want games where nobody is sweating.

People are playing to win. Some players play to win, some play for fun, so play to try different weapons. Each reason is justified. Trust me, solo queue players trying to win are just as mad at players running dumb load-outs and getting no kills or not playing the objective. I know when I play a game I have fun winning, that’s just how I am. I don’t jump in QP to lose, and even when I try new load-outs I still don’t want to lose. Each player base is always going to have a problem with the other.
