Players who 6-stack in PvP should be shunted to their own matchmaking lobby, change my mind.

Title says it all, players who feel the need to 6-stack in regular Crucible should be exclusively matched with other 6-stacks, and nobody else. Will it make their wait times for matches skyrocket to undesirable levels? Yes it will. Will it limit their pool of teams to play against to the same few teams exclusively? You bet. Is it a change that would drastically reduce the amount of players who would attempt playing like this? THATS THE POINT In regular 6 v 6 Crucible, the only players that 6-stack are the ones who want to stomp on other players for their own amusement, and for anyone who is not also playing the same way, it is such a demoralizing experience to be matched against those teams that I know players who have left the game as a whole because of it. I just played 2 games in a row being matched against 6-stacked teams, and they were so lopsided that they should not have happened, period. This game's matchmaking is already so poor, that by letting people team up in 6's, it irrevocably breaks the game more so than it already is. I have no sympathy for the kinds of players that feel the need to do this, so they should be the ones thrown into a different matchmaking pool so they can play against other players just like them.

  • Well guess what, I have no sympathy for players who complain about facing teams as a solo player when finding a fireteam is extremely easy. And for all of you who are going to defend this guy, Remember its his fault for playing this way. Its been a long standing argument that bungie should cater to solo players. News flash: This is a[b]multiplayer[/b] game. You can never escape fireteams as long as you play destiny so either find a team and quit complaining or quit playing and go find a game thats more single player friendly

      Counterpoints: -Most “stacks” are just friends. -You should never be discouraged from playing with your friends. -Queue times would be horrendous if there was freelance or “pseudo-freelance” (as I think this post is suggesting) for every gamemode (it’s good in moderation, but Destiny PvP simply doesn’t see the player numbers to reasonably support that many playlists). -Most “stacks” you lose to you would’ve lost to them regardless of them being in a fireteam and “communicating” (aka just senseless screaming and banter). It just makes your ego feel a little less hurt when you lose and you can blame it on a potential advantage even though you have full access to that advantage if you’re that peeved about it (we’re all guilty of it). -If you see the number increase by six in matchmaking, just leave. In Iron Banner (and probably some other playlists) you can watch the roster before the game starts too to be 100% sure. -If you’re not having fun in a game or you see a “stack” and you just don’t want to play them, you can make the decision to just leave. “Stack” is to “fireteam” as “Band-Aid” is to “bandage” nowadays. People just throw the word haphazardly as an equivalent and admittedly I frequently do the same because it is just easier to convey the message, but people need to stop acting like every 6-man fireteam is some crazy “stacked” team that are top 0.01% players because they aren’t, not even most of the time—hardly ever.

      • 6 stacking in pvp is very fun, you should try it. Player who bottom frags takes a shot. Or top frag takes a shot. Or rng for the spot before the match starts. It's just a game yo, don't take it too seriously, you'll have more fun that way

          Do you know how long matchmaking would take lol it’s fine the way it is apart from team balancing, If you don’t want to play just back out or play freelance.

        • Playing 6 stack does not mean that your going to loose, they might not be loads better then you, it could just be the clan playing for fun doing bounty’s. Same when I play elimination i solo and play a 3 stack regularly but most of the time win, they even have comms (probably).

        • Yeah, I get that. Six stacked today for the first time in three years. 13 win streak. Wasn’t even that fun honestly much less fair to other players. We ran into a 3-4 stack in less than half those games. I think running with 2-3 people in Crucible is the perfect vibe. Even if you have dumpster teammates, matches will be closer and more enjoyable. But, there are those that win grind and want padded states. These last few weeks I’d be running Cruci matched with 5 other solo players against six stacks… Just can’t beat their coordination 90% of the time. They’re nuts to butt most of the time and it’s difficult to fight 1 v 2 or more every gun fight haha

        • Counterargument: Some people just wanna play with their friends. Not every six stack is a good six stack.

            • Sorry buddy I have to six stack because playing solo is bs. Rigged games, bots on my team, 4 man team of bots on my team, it’s terrible. Get rid of sbmm and it wouldn’t be such a problem

            • So a team-based game mode should discourage you from having a team? Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds?

            • Its been repeatedly stated by the low life POS sweaty cowards that they are the sole and only reason Destiny is alive today. These sociopaths further state that without them the game would die. Now consider this for one moment, the low life POS sweaty cowards who think they are gods gift to Destiny are always beating their pathetic bloated chests demanding changes. Their constant pathetic drumbeat of -blam!-, crying, whining, moaning, complaining, balling, shrieking, yelping, carping and fussing about the state of play in this hot nasty filthy rotting pile of dogsheit otherwise known as Cruc-A-Crap is making them mad and sending their puny little brains into a frenzy. These little thumb suckers are constantly demanding changes and if Bungie doesn't give in then they will run away and start playing Fortnite. Well then if that was true, if these little low life pathetic blueberry farming POS sweaty cowards were the true heartbeat of Destiny. If they were actually contributing to Bungies bottom Line then don't you think Bungie would take the low life POS sweaty cowards serious and make changes?

              • Then go into team chat. The only advantage a stacked team has is communication.

                      • Add freelance to all modes, anyone who objects to such freedom of playability is obviously a 6 stack sweat, a toxic player, or a troll

                        • It is easier to leave the game than posting here . Do not feed the kills by playing entire game.
