Destiny is absolute trash

I play a lot of crucible. Gambit just for the pinnacle. It’s too boring.

I totally agree LOL

gambit is the best mode, its a bit of a struggle solo, but with a team its fantastic. usually people hate it because they arnt covering their bases with a balanced loadout. you need to have something for ad clear something for orange bar burst dps, something for boss dps, anf finally something for invading/invader countering

The Gambit experience.

Stop saying they're forcing you. Is a bungie executive holding you at gunpoint saying he'll shoot if you don't play it? Is there a timer in your game saying "Account will be banned in X hours unless Gambit match has been completed"? Is your mom or dad telling you they'll send you to military school and disown you while you're there if you don't play Gambit? Nobody is forcing you to play gambit. "BUT MAH PINNACLE" That's you. That's all on you. YOU choose to want the pinnacle, so YOU choose to play gambit for the pinnacle. You can just...ignore it. You don't HAVE to get the gambit pinnacle. You can stay relevant without it. I barely touched Gambit at all in the last 3 seasons, and I've played a few matches in the last month or so with friends that just started the game. Without Gambit, I was never far behind hard cap, and that's also without doing bounties much at all, so my artifact was hardly contributing. You do NOT have to play this game at all. Nobody is forcing you to play this game. Nobody is forcing you to play any specific activity on this game. You choose what modes to play, you choose what loot you find worth it. Hate gambit this much? Then stop playing gambit, and compensate for the loss of the pinnacle by doing more elsewhere to earn XP to buff up your artifact. Here's the short and sweet of it, the TL;DR for those of you too illiterate to withstand more than 3 statements: Nobody forces you to play ANY part of this game, it's all by choice, so either suck it up and play the mode in silent acceptance, or stop playing the mode and compensate for the lack of pinnacle elsewhere. DON'T come to the forum whining and crying and saying Bungie forces you to do something you don't want to do.

I would assume Gambit is more fun when you're running as a team. Sadly I can never find people willing to play it longer than they need too.

Why are you forced to play it? You get a +1 pinnacle that drops after 3 matches, yes, but +1's suck and I never do them and I'm already 1330 base equipment.

Wait I thought Prime and T3 Reckoning were its worst modes, or even its old 2-3 match mode. As a Dredgen I only go there if I need a new hot gun, like when Igneous Hammer showed up and I needed a Bottom Dollar. I wouldn't say its horrible, matches are quicker so you suffer less, leave it for other Dredgens to gild their unholy title of villainy and inflated ego! RNG robbed you, not Gambit, Gambit was its means of not-delivery, RNG is a -blam!- thing but its a plague in this game...

I liked it when it was 3 rounds, & you had the dreaming city map where that giant -blam!- thing could spawn

I agree that Gambit can be better, but instead of attacking them, it would probably help if you can suggest ways to make the players' experience more enjoyable. For example, you can write about what would you like to see Bungie put in Gambit, or even make a poll or something. I understand how you're feeling but the approach you took isn't going to help you or them...

Just add matchmaking to it

I wouldn't go so far as to say its trash, but it has problems. mainly on balance. If the other team has either one thousand voices or eyes of tomorrow and your team does not. you will lose and there is nothing you can do about that. You can have your primeevil down to 20% before they get theirs up and then 2 seconds later theirs is dead.
