At my best, I cultivated a 1.8 KD, a 2.33 KDA, and I solo'd to high Mythic BEFORE SBMM kicked in. And SBMM is why I'm tanking my stats. I play casually and built up a decent amount of skill since I started to get into PvP during Taken King. I'm not anywhere near the best, but I know I'm certainly not the worst. It's really not hard to use decent weapons and do big brain stuff for strategy and pull off some decent plays. If I want something, I'll tussle in PvP and [b]EARN[/b] it. However, thanks to my improvement, I am now punished for it. I got myself grouped into the bracket that plays like they're in a million dollar tournament. Every. God. Damn. Match. Doesn't matter what playlist. All I consistently see are Unbrokens and high stat players. [b][u]What hurts most is that due to matchmaking against me, my lower skilled friends get demolished every match and don't really like setting foot in Crucible with me.[/u][/b] They'll never say it, but I hear it in their lackluster tone when I mention Crucible. So I stopped asking and we've actually started playing other games together. Seeing so many 5000+ Glory Unbrokens with my sub 1000 Glory in Freelance just broke me. Figured I'd finish up and earn Throwing Knife and Komodo this season since I got all the rest in Y2 (excluding NF). The sweat, the teabagging, and the angry sore losing messages afterward just amazed me. That's the setting I strove to reach? To go toe to toe with the highest ranking D2 players consistently? Nothing but shitty unsportsmanlike conduct from "the best." It really set the whole of Y3 in perspective for me: [b]Destiny punishes you for being a good player.[/b] Give it a little thought. It'll sink in. I stopped playing somewhat seriously. If it wasn't for my friends who just like to go pew pew and kill stuff, I'd have put this game down months ago.

  • I was up to 4100 solo in comp then I lose every single game against unbroken and legend rank players. Then I get on this morning and I wreck and get back up to 3900 . Then I get on tonight and so far lost about 6-7 games in a row. Can’t even explain it. There’s something way wrong. Positive kd every game this morning except one. Tonight I’m having games with 1 kill 3 kills and it’s like I can put a clip into someone’s head and they don’t die. I had a player beat me with sun shot against my bygones from way our pulse range. I was hitting him 4 times in the face and still not kill him. I also noticed a lot of laggy games where things weren’t working right.

  • I played the #2 ranked person in survival yesterday. I'm a baked potato....which is slightly better than...an uncooked potato. Heh... It's whatever...not gonna complain bout it. This game is not competitive, and is not to be taken seriously. It's a broken mess and that's actually what it's supposed to be. Where they missed tho...is that it needs to be fun. Even when I win, I'm disgusted. Partly due because I was running with cerebrus having fun, but had to switch to revoker. I get it tho, survival of the fittest and all that....I shouldn't go into survival to have fun...yada yada. I refuse to go into the control playlist and the classic mix is uh....worse than survival. I understand why tho. People want their connection to matter. So that "skill" is what determines the outcome and not lag/hit detection. I mean....even bullet registration is RNG.

  • Damn. I was pissed about having to play people with .2-.1 less K/D than I have and seeing them be Legend. I have nowhere near your stats. But I'm glad you posted because after playing the hell out of comp the last couple of days I honestly feel there is something weird about that playlist. Not to rag on Bungie but after what I've put myself through, I feel like Glory rank is a crock of bs. I've seen multiple people now with stats worse than mine who have done worse overall this season and are objectively "worse" than me in every way, at or near legend. And don't even get me started on the shot registration silliness. How is the way this works considered "skill based matchmaking?" Why when I go down in rank do the matches not get easier? I already don't really respect Unbrokens because of how many people paid for it or got boosted but next season when all these people get it and I don't I will fear them even less. I really think they need to reset everything for real in PvP. Even though they act like they do every season, they really don't.
