[quote]Well, for one, how are people that are bad at PvP supposed to get better in a non competitive scenario when they're getting bodied by 1090 LL guys running around with their Revokers and shit.[/quote]1. That's not the goal of the non-competitive modes, teaching you is the job of ranked modes. 2. Unless you're the unluckiest player in the world the massive majority of your games will be vs average players, if average players are consistently "bodying" you then it's on you. [quote]I think that since SBMM has gone away, it really doesn't show the skill that it takes for some of the pro PvP players to stay as a pro, since again, they're able to run around and body everyone with Revokers or Gnawing Hunger.[/quote] On the contrary they get to see where they really sit on the totem pole under cbmm - this is the reality, you see where you actually are vs the entire playerbase. Not your false sbmm illusion where everyone thinks they're average. [quote]I, for one, think that PvE is in a good state rn, but PvP is just garbage... [/quote] Pve is lacking horribly, pvp is great. [quote]I'm tired of going into a game to do my weekly bounties, and having to deal with toe cheese little -blam!- who don't let anyone have fun.[/quote] Ah, so pvp should be adjusted because inept players who play pvp just for the bounties or pinnacle should be catered towards vs the players that grind it non-stop? Yeah definitely not.

  • Cheaters isn't only on PC Boring meta? You mean some of the guns don't even perform at all? Small maps designes that don't allow proper sandbox tweaking? OHK weapons again running rampage? Possible to run just specials all matches? What was the 2 PvP end game contents were again? Trials and Iron Banner, and they got no issues I suppose? Probably what you meant YOU are happy with the state of PvP and for you it is great.

  • [quote]Cheaters isn't only on PC[/quote] Cheaters on console are incredibly rare, the most common is ddos and across 5 years of destiny I've had that happen twice [quote]Boring meta? You mean some of the guns don't even perform at all?[/quote]No I mean boring auto rifle spam [quote]Small maps designes that don't allow proper sandbox tweaking?[/quote] Exactly how does map size effect sandbox balancing? [quote]OHK weapons again running rampage? Possible to run just specials all matches?[/quote]That is what people asked for, I personally dont enjoy the special spam but theres no denying most of the community wanted special weapons to return after the disaster that was D2Y1 [quote]What was the 2 PvP end game contents were again? Trials and Iron Banner, and they got no issues I suppose?[/quote]No? Nothing is wrong with either mode????? [quote]Probably what you meant YOU are happy with the state of PvP and for you it is great.[/quote]It is great, that doesnt mean it's perfect but small maps and special spam arent game breaking

  • Oh sorry.. I didn't realise you actually made an argument to be countered. IB and Trials aren't broken comment sum up how wrong you are but if you are enjoying it mate. That's fine. I just don't have a low standard like the game just needs to boot up

  • I've found snipers and hand cannons or sidearms to be extremely effective against autos. Spam around a corner? Take their head off with a sniper. They're trying to engage you in the open? 9/10 they are too confident while you're next to cover. They want to get close? A sidearm will fix that real quick. ...or last word.

  • You’re actually a -blam!-ing loser... you go around quoting stuff like you’re making an article for a newspaper, but this is a forum for a video game. Different people have different opinions, and PvP is full of the same weapons killing you over and over again, while PvE is actually fun for people who don’t have the best gear. So shut up and get your Dorito residue fingies off the keyboard.

  • [quote]You’re actually a -blam!-ing loser... you go around quoting stuff like you’re making an article for a newspaper[/quote]If I quote someone and break down what they say and it appears idiotic (like your post right here) then that's on them for making a dumb post. [quote]but this is a forum for a video game.[/quote] And that means people shouldnt get called out for the dumb things they say? What a truly clown like thing to say 🤣😂 [quote]Different people have different opinions, and PvP is full of the same weapons killing you over and over again, while PvE is actually fun for people who don’t have the best gear.[/quote] "Boo hoo, I didnt put the time and effort into getting good guns and now I'm not seeing as much success" Theres plenty of variety, just because you didnt put in the time to grind for mindbenders/astral/felwinters/revoker/beloved/eye of sol/bite of the fox/mt/gnawing/summoner/bastion/hardlight/suros/v-wing/etc doesn't mean pvp doesnt see a ton of different guns [quote]So shut up and get your Dorito residue fingies off the keyboard.[/quote] How about you shut up and just read replies and educate yourself instead of posting thoughtless stupidity and showing how clueless you are?

  • I don’t need to “educate myself” because I say my opinion on a forum for a video game I play... again, the keyword in the title is “I” meaning what I think, my opinion, so what you’re saying is I’m being idiotic for expressing my opinion? I’m sorry for using my rights.

  • When you weirdly believe that casual gamemodes shouldn have the type of matchmaking competitive modes do and get mad when people call it out then yes you need to get educated

  • I don’t think it’s weird, because people need to get better without feeling the stress of the competitive playlist, also, you said that PvP shouldn’t cater to people bad at the game, or something along those lines, well, maybe it should. Think about it, if someone has a bad experience playing PvP for the first time in a casual match, and they basically don’t get to play the game unless they’re two tapping people, that will leave a bad impression on them for PvP, so less of those “Bad Players” will play, and then you’ll be right back where you started- people higher up the ranks complaining about being in “PvP hell” because the only other people playing are high ranks. And casual is supposed to be fun for all people, so if you’re not having fun at your skill level, then why even bother playing? If you’re not having fun at a game/game mode, just don’t play that game/game mode, simple. I used to love playing PvP, I even loved playing a bit when SBMM was taken away (I used a Witherhoard and sidearm combo) but I slowly started to see myself not having fun playing PvP, so I stopped, and then I realized, “wait, but doing my weekly bounties for Crucible gets me more exp and loot and bright dust, maybe I should try again?” I went into a match and got 1 kill, and it was an assist. Could be I’m out of practice, could be new metas, or it could be the fact that I was placed in a game with people that would’ve been high above my skill level when I still played PvP a lot. I’ll never know. But no matter the case, when I was playing before, I was still having fun, and now I’m not, and I’m just trying to do some bounties, man... and when you play at the times that I do, there’s only a couple games based on my connection, and I get the same game every single time. Oh well, may as well try again today. You never know, I might find a match where I have fun. Gotta think positive after all of the flak I got from some people... idek why I made this post tbh, well... later.

  • [quote]I don’t think it’s weird, because people need to get better without feeling the stress of the competitive playlist[/quote]The point of ranked or competitive modes are to teach new and old players alike in an environment where they shoot past players till they match thier peers and battle it out vs similar skilled players. That's the direct opposite of the goal of 6vs6 casual modes. If someone wants to learn pvp in a competitive environment but doesnt want to play the intended competitive playlist that's on them, they chose to ignore the mode designed for what they want and expect the others modes to cater backwards and do the opposite of what they're intended for. [quote]also, you said that PvP shouldn’t cater to people bad at the game, or something along those lines, well, maybe it should [/quote]No, it shouldnt, the same way people that only play patrols dont get raid loot those that are bad at something dont get catered towards [quote]Think about it, if someone has a bad experience playing PvP for the first time in a casual match, and they basically don’t get to play the game unless they’re two tapping people, that will leave a bad impression on them for PvP,[/quote]Think about it, if sbmm is in the game better players are forced to play the equivalent of an MLG tourney every game in casual modes which makes them quit - this leaves the community without its hardcore backing that is 100% required for all guides and sherpas and filling the community with casual players who end up dropping the game regardless when the next big title drops. [quote]so less of those “Bad Players” will play, and then you’ll be right back where you started- people higher up the ranks complaining about being in “PvP hell” because the only other people playing are high ranks.[/quote] No for 2 reasons. 1. Casual players come and go all the time, they rejoin the community then leave to rejoin other games and rotate around, there will always be casual players replacing the other casual players who rotate out so pvp remains the same. 2. Casual players dont exclusively match good ones, each and every game is different for them with the majority of games being them vs other average players - this leads to them experiencing variety which is totally fine and keeps them playing. [quote]And casual is supposed to be fun for all people, so if you’re not having fun at your skill level, then why even bother playing?[/quote]Casual is supposed to be the laid back mode where it finds the first and fastest possible match and throws eveyone in regardless of filters, sometimes you'll be on top, sometimes you'll be in the middle and sometimes you'll be at the bottom, it's all random and equal and the better you are the more often you'll be at the top. It's called merit. [quote]If you’re not having fun at a game/game mode, just don’t play that game/game mode, simple. I used to love playing PvP, I even loved playing a bit when SBMM was taken away (I used a Witherhoard and sidearm combo) but I slowly started to see myself not having fun playing PvP, so I stopped, and then I realized, “wait, but doing my weekly bounties for Crucible gets me more exp and loot and bright dust, maybe I should try again?” I went into a match and got 1 kill, and it was an assist.

Gotta think positive after all of the flak I got from some people... idek why I made this post tbh, well... later.[/quote]Later, keep in the mind the majority of your games are vs your fellow average players, you can also choose the modes intended for sbmm, but you cannot flip pvp on its head and lock away the good players who started off on the same rung as you, tool the time and effort into improving just to be segregated from thier fellow players who theyve been playing all along
