SBMM worsened Quickplay, the most played PvP gamemode (opinion)

EDIT (PLEASE READ): Now, a few things must be said to those who just stumbled upon this. 1) The point of the post was to highlight that Control/Quickplay should be a fun and chill experience. Getting rolled is not fun. Playing against sweats is not fun, agreed? 2) Some individuals have been grouping me with top players that can no longer stomp noobs and cry because they have to try. I AM BY NO MEANS A SWEAT OR TOP PLAYER (look at my stats) AND I DO NOT ENJOY STOMPING NOOBS OR getting stomped by sweats. 3) PLEASE READ THE FULL POST before commenting and if you do comment, I appreciate the feedback (even if you disagree), as long as it isn't some kid malding for no reason or still saying I like stomping noobs. Post a mature comment. Quickplay is called :"quick"-"play" for a reason: it ignores (or at least it used to, hence: CBMM) skill. This was the most used and most common pvp gamemode. Now, me as a pretty decently skilled player, friends as mid-tier players, and my friend as a new player, are all getting somewhat rolled in most of our lobbies (EDIT: NOT while we are stacking, i mean individually, in all of our various skill lobbies). ALL (oh yes, I do mean ALL..) of my games feel like 6v6 comp games filled with crazy sweats (good players, do you disagree?). My 3 Control games were 151-68, 101-39, and 150-88, all losses, 1 game I dod fairly decent. Now every time I get on, instead of going into a control game to chill, I do something else that is ACTUALLY chill (EDIT: Not because i can "no longer stomp noobs", but instead feel like i cannot have a good time in control now). This (I believe) is SIGNIFICANTLY hurting PvP as it not only discourage any players from playing pvp, but does quite the opposite. What I mean is that players will have less productive and enjoyable experiences which progressively damages both the look and feel of PvP as a whole. If you want to make a separate game mode, MAKE A RANKED CONTROL PLAYLIST, BUNGIE. Please. Then you have 2 options. Community thoughts are appreciated. EDIT: When I said QuickPlay up above I was referring to Control, and how it in the equivalent of other games' quickplay. And the game/ destiny tracker even says it's still "Control: Quickplay" to those arguing that it is not called quickplay...(credit to Meester Brown and Aither, Primordial of Lght) Also I'm not talking about me having trouble in my skill level as much as the community not liking SBMM. And to those saying I'm bad, I can't be that bad because I'm always playing against people who are significantly better than me and act like we're in comp or trials. And to those wondering or about to comment calling me out for it, I changed the post from saying RUINED to WORSENED. I now realize that I went a little overboard saying that, just felt true in the heat of the moment

  • Tell that to all the cringe potatoes in this forum who made it their life obligation to make SBMM appreciation posts and downvote every single constructive and logical counter argument against SBMM. You and i will not win in this argument and Bungie seems to wanna turn the only non sweaty playlist that was left in this game which was CASUAL QUICKPLAY in a pve looter shooter into a 20 million dollar tournament. Hey, i don't think they will revert that any time soon since all the complete potatoes seem to enjoy it so much. As a consequence, i will just stop playing the game :) Not worth my time to try and win a championship every single casual quickplay round against gamer chair drenching cringelords. Even lost interest in the pve portion of the game because of that. If pvp sucks, why would i wanna hop into pve to get god rolls lol. This "tiny" change will make Bungie lose so many players in the long run.
