Following needs to be fixed when Rise of Iron launches. Crucible is now uber-competitive and filled with 335 try-hards using Grasp, MIDA, Doctrine, Eyasluna, etc. No one is experimenting with different loadouts because all the other primaries are so gimped. And casual players have absolutely no chance, outside of cheap supers. [b]It needs to be shaken up and made [u]friendlier[/u].[/b] Please. For everyone's sanity.
- Snipers are ridiculously easy to use because nothing pressures them, even at surprisingly close ranges, and body shot damage is very high.
- MIDA feels OP as hell (like Suros, Vex, Thorn before it)
- Auto rifles are [i]still[/i] 99.9% useless (Doctrine aside)
- It's nowhere near as easy to hit headshots with primaries (not snipers) as it was in year 1 because of all the weird tweaks to the range stat, etc. I think this hurts casuals the most.
- Hand cannons are too unstable and slow to be fun.
- Titan skating is unbelievably dumb (I main a Titan and 'skating' just isn't what this class is meant to be about; it's meant to be a tank). The solution should have been higher armor to counter high agility of other classes. Other classes can counter Titans too easily through pure evasion.
- CQB is absolutely horrendous. No drama because rangefinder shotgun range ends it so quickly
- Melee hits on someone who is about to strike you with their super frequently do not register.
[b]- Every single match is hyper competitive. That's not enjoyable. It's [i]draining[/i].[/b]
I'm not playing any more Crucible until next patch. I can't stand the lack of variety. And I know I'm not the only one. My friends don't even want to play at all any more - and it's bumming out their excitement for Rise of Iron.
The fun has been gradually sucked out of this game since Taken King dropped. Is it just that the try-hards are left still playing? Well, maybe make the crucible a less hostile environment for lapsed players and it wouldn't be so over-competitive. I don't want to sweat my ass off in every match.
I bet it's all been said a thousand times. Monthly balance updates are needed, in my view, with an emphasis on promoting variety and FUN.

TL:DR - best loadouts and rolls have reached saturation point, and primaries are mostly awful. The crucible is therefore ruined, and someone needs to hit the big reset button.[quote][/quote]

I was about to make a post about this ! I can almost feel the sweat on every type of PvP mode ! Tired of kids using TLW bodyshoting over 1,5 year

I'm actually surprised at how well the zhalo performs in crucible tbh. I ran it on all three toons for IB and saw others using it as well so doctrine isn't the only AR with value

2 RespuestasButthurt Report. Go back to Cod where every 6yo can drop 30 a game with stick.

Reduce MIDA damage and falloff Sniper flinch when shot while aimed Buff all legendary primary weapons Reduce secondary ammo pickup mid-match Shotgun damage reduced but range increased
-
Crucible is garbage. Guardians run so slow, maps are tiny, jumping is the only way to evade, specials are way too prevalent, the radar is balls, and it's not rewarding at all.

4 RespuestasEditado por FreeJack2099: 8/23/2016 1:02:00 PMWhen did ppl start including eyesluna up there with mida, dop, grasp, etc.? I play with hand cannons a lot. I don't feel it is superior to most other hand cannons. I think most middle rate of fire legendary hand cannons are just as good or better depending on the roll. Just to name a few; lord high fixer, devil you may know, imago loop, finella's peril, gheris-d and her revenge. The slow rate of fire and fast rate of fire hand cannons (minus exotics) are the ones that I feel are at a slight disadvantage. To kill with three shots from a high rate of fire hand cannon it has to be 3 head shots, the range and stability on high rate of fire hand cannons is frequently lower than other middle rate of fire hand cannons. The only way I see this possibly being balanced is to reduce bloom and/or increase stability on this arch type (minus exotics). The low rate of fire hand cannons require the same number of hits as a middle rate of fire unless a damage increasing perk is active. Am I missing something here?

3 RespuestasI agree... But have you tried different game modes? Control and Clash imo are the most competitive, whereas if you try rift or even classic 6v6 you will see there are a lot more casuals and that is where I can go and mess about on my alt characters and play with my year 1 guns [spoiler]<3 messenger[/spoiler]

5 RespuestasStopped reading at "titan is meant to be a tank" This game isn't nearly defined enough in the class department to have tanks or healers or anything of the sort. Skating is very fast linear movement. Titans have the best linear movement, but can't turn easily without using shoulder charge, and hunters have the best vertical movement and arguably the best PvP jump due to their unpredictability. Warlocks... Just floof.

I don't really use MIDA a lot. I'm loving the badger CCL though.

FWIW crucible is fun for me

This is how you know snipers are stupid af! LOL! end of video. https://youtu.be/rKCVvITxtoE

5 RespuestasRespect your opinions but I can't agree. 1. I like the fact that it's competitive because I am a competitive little sob. Private matches give you the chance to try new loadouts with friends in a non - competitive environment. So they have already fixed that. 2. I went to L5 in the most recent IB with an auto rifle. 3. Using a sniper rifle makes you extremely vulnerable at close range so there is a trade off. 4. Snipers dominate the sniper lanes. If you stay out of the sniper lanes you can dictate the fight on your terms. 5. I have huge respect for those who can get kills with a scout. Takes skill I don't have.

3 RespuestasEditado por LR308Kills: 8/23/2016 8:27:18 PMThe MIDA is a scout rifle for players who suck at using scout rifles. Check my stats for headshots on my Titan. http://destinytracker.com/destiny/overview/xbox/LR308Kills

9 RespuestasEvery match is competitive. That's your main complaint? Are you serious?

4 RespuestasMore flinch needs to be added to snipers. At no point should I have the drop on a sniper, within optimal range of my gun, only to have the sniper turn and headshot me. I quit playing crucible because of the sniper meta. Started playing again to clear quests on my other 2 characters. Snipers still annoying as -blam!-.

So, nerf fusion rifles?

2 RespuestasWelcome to reality, where you don't get to dictate what's fun and what isn't. [spoiler]Seriously, why does every momma's boy come in here crying that everything that doesn't work with their play style should be nerfed into the ground?[/spoiler]

At the very least cut the cord on skill based matchmaking in regular crucible. Trials is fine, IB is fine, but just regular clash? That's a bit silly and un-fun. That's something this game has seemingly lost, fun. Which is a shame. Hopefully Rise of Iron does something in the way of restoring fun.

Very well said. Agree with pretty much all your points.

I'm totally buns at crucible and I got 2 merciless medals with an auto today...

1 Respuesta[quote]it's meant to be a tank[/quote] No it isn't. Titans are NOTHING like tanks.

3 Respuestas"Crucible is simply not fun..." Agree. Destiny's PvP has been bad and it has been good. But, now it's seems to be just consistently bad. This last Iron Banner seem to be more torture then fun. I use to forward to playing a few matches everyday. But, with the way things are now, I have little motivation to do anything in the Crucible. OMG Bungie please do something to fix this carp....

5 RespuestasI think what ruins crucible the most is the fact that their are so many people who CAN ONLY slide and shotgun or camp around a corner with it. No skill scrubs. If you use a shotgun I look down on you especially if your using universal remote primary, you basically got a no skill dunce cap on your head
