I know, 'if something is Bad, then leave it" but I just want to give some feedback.
And my feedback is that PvP has somehow become worse than before.
Abilities and specials are everywhere and the Sandbox is unbalanced

Devs are detached from reality. I was always a Bungie fan boy, shocking to see how anyone can defend this. But they're out there.

Space magic ❤️❤️❤️

been like this at least a year now

I used to main 6v6 all the time but I moved to Comp and rumble more now because I've grown tired of getting killed by supers non stop and other random abilities.

Lag is killing it for me. Hit registration is terrible and players teleporting, appearing and disappearing. Then there’s the game loading. It’s bizarre. I’m in a game, I’m out, I’m in space again. Loading into games with a white screen - I’m live in the game but have to f******+ die before I load properly. I actually wanted to play trials this week but managed one match then found wait times unending. If I’ve got an hour at lunch or before bed I don’t want to spend most/all of it waiting to load into a match. Then I see all the perk weighting crud, which explains why 40 -50 odd Elsie’s Rifles I grinded in Onslaught were all pants. F*** it.
-
Trials loot is bugged for me so I’m not even doing that. Comp was nice for my 3 match roll of deadlock. Control is a crap show for the most part. Seems to be nothing but sweats left there. Wish folks would just take a break from meta trials loadouts just every once in awhile. Vast majority is just pris hunter with Elsie rifles, etc, etc I’m terrible btw before the ego brigade start chiming in to measure their peepee

eliteg👎👍🙏⚔️😴 - old
I think its all over the place. I swear for 2ish weeks having a blast (overall) in my control matches, then last Tuesday-Saturday.. no survival capability.. cannot survive.. and then Sunday-Monday back to pretty ok.. with some bad outliers. I think we wouldn't still be at PVP if it didn't sometimes feel good but could you possibly recommend that to anyone? Its a shame because PVP is a significant reason/portion of the weapon chase for me.. and I think a lot of folk. I agree that you get too many 1 hit kill ways of playing > abilities, supers, special and heavy. That is fine for a mode that people would go to for that like Mayhem. That should exist.. and probably always for that group. Also, of course there are weapons, exotics, abilities that just ruin it for a lobby.. also the DATA is clear.. just look at continuous crazy Combat Efficiency in those matches. But PVP the main portion of it should be about gunplay and skill.. (I do not mind low abilities but if Hardware is the only place we can do it than lets do that.) I also think maps have a lot to do with our enjoyment... I actually think the problem is not in enough maps but in the right maps for the mode.. I'd love to deselect maps from my rotation and suffer the waiting time - I do not mind. The biggest problem we got is that it seems like not any love or care for the mode.. as I don't envy anyone in that position as that is an insane animal to get a feel for how to go forward. I swear though, if someone comes forward at B as a PVP leader > it will help to have a philosophy.. for certain more transparency across the board.. cause then you begin to rebuild some integrity and trust and momentum.. eh anyway back to it... -
No -blam!- Sherlock lol PvP is what it is now….trials and comp are awful and dead now. Just leaves control which everyone is going laying can se that’s what is left out of the modes . Make the most of pvp before it fades away

3 RepliesSpecials aren’t everywhere the problem is that the body to crit multiplier if primaries was changed. Making headshots more important and this lengthened the average kill time of all primaries. Which stealth buffed both shotguns and fusions which also received a damage buff coming into this new sandbox. The ammo economy isn’t the problem and is arguably worse than previous versions. It’s the fact shotguns and fusions are now overpowered.

1 Replywhat I don't understand is how every match is an absolute steamroll on one side or the other. It's not fun when it feels like a 1v6 through half the match...
-
I totally agree it’s unbalanced. They nuked the hunter completely compared to the abilities that actually do damage of the other classes.
-
1 ReplyIs it just the frequency of abilities and specials? Not arguing. Just curious.
-
1 ReplyYes, I agree...PvP has a lot of things that could be better. Yes, abilities are slightly out of control... consecration slam, arc slide, etc...but they need to fix the right things ...I would hate to have no abilities and then get matched into trash lobbies...or have well balanced lobbies and face out of control ability spamming...just give us viable options, remove game modes that have least player bases...allow us to choose what maps that suit our play style...options makes for a better way to taylor the game to what we enjoy doing...not having to play what Bungie thinks is enjoyable

1 ReplySolution is simple don't play.

Edited by Magiscene: 10/29/2024 12:28:55 PMAgree that d2 pvp is down the drain but I blame the matchmaking more than anything even with SBMM the matches are always 1 sided. Disagree with the second part. Ability up time is fine and specials need to go back to the pre checkmate system. Primariy only gunplay is boring. D2 vanilla pvp is prime example. If you want no abilities then try playing cod.

2 RepliesMy issue is mostly the fact that overall ttk in primaries isn’t based on archetype ranges,like why the hell do pulse rifles have the same ttk as sidearms and SMGs??? It makes no sense,there should be a factor in risk and reward.

2 RepliesI don't agree with this statement 'if something is Bad, then leave it". I think we complain because we care for the game mode. To be honest, I think abilities is a secondary problem in PVP. The match making is the root of all problems. Really don't care if the other players team is better than me, but is completely frustrating when the system put you with two others players that clearly YOU have to carry.
