Tried trails for the first time this weekend
So I tried trails of the nine for the first time ever this weekend. I just had some questions. First off before a lot of the games I would get messages from people telling me they’d tank the game for $20, multiple times I got messages from people saying they’d carry me to flawless for again $20. In one game I killed a guy with the colony and then started to receive messages over Xbox calling me trash, scrub, whatever and this is from a guy on a team that won the match 6-0, I killed him once and he was pissed! A lot of the games I played we ended up playing the same teams over and over. Is this how trials always is? I mean I had fun and ended up at one point getting 3 wins in a row but seriously I do not understand what the deal is with this activity. Is it always like this every weekend or did I try this for the first time on a very bad weekend?

1 ReplyEdited by ETERNAL: 7/18/2018 12:13:32 AMTrials is inferior to regular Competitive for two reasons: 1.) Locked loadout during the match. 2.) Same map over and over again. Loot pool is largely garbage so I suggest you stick to Competitive. Its more fun.

Fact: Trials hasn’t been fun since d1

3 RepliesIt's gotten worse since the removed radar; most people hate it, which means far fewer people play it, which means worse matchmaking for everyone.

Was it the Oregon Trail? Heard that one was infested with dysentery and snakes.
-
2 RepliesA guy actually messaged you all because you killed him once and he killed you more? Wow some people need to get outside more. That is the kind of guy you hear about who kills someone over a video game. I would never touch trials I already know it attracts the bottom of the barrel of the human race!

2 RepliesTrials on Xbox is hell. It's hard to find a team unless you have a group of friends or clan because most people on lfg want you to have a 1.5KD+. And if you do manage to find a team, they will probably leave after one loss. And if you do happen to get a good team and start winning, you will probably run into some ddosers. They way they get away with it is that they already are super sweaty so they win most games but when they come across a team that's better than them they will ddos. This happen to me once when we were coming back from a 0-2 start. They had to ddos two of us in order to win because we still were winning rounds with 3 people. We lost and we reported them but they probably won't get banned because they play most of their games fairly. Yea trials is hell.

“Trails” [spoiler]im sorry lol[/spoiler]

Edited by Klassified187: 7/17/2018 2:25:37 PMThe best time to play trials is when a new expansion comes out in September and around Christmas/New Years.. That's typically when there is an influx of new players trying trials out for the first time and its not as sweaty and toxic. About a month or two after that, stop playing.

3 RepliesBecause your playing on xbox

Yes it’s always like that. Welcome to a toxic pvp community at its most toxic.
-
I never get messages but it is usually half the games are easy wins and the other half are sweaty.
-
I go in there with an antelope-D, graviton lance, and a main ingredient. My entire team does. We have one guy running a tractor cannon as well and he’s a nightstalker. And I get messages all the time, but it’s from salty scrubs who succ ass at pvp and don’t like that I’m actually good. [spoiler]but I don’t actually play pvp so I couldn’t tell you what it’s like.[/spoiler]

2 RepliesTrials is sweaty bro. Really damn sweaty. Guys that do nothing but sit in mom's basement, slam Mountain Dew, and collect Doritos shrapnel in their neckbeard rule trials. It's the only place they matter.

Trail trials. One of the most grueling, physical and mentally exhausting tasks you can put yourself through. Make sure you train hard before you hit the trails. They can be unforgiving to the under prepared and ill equipped.
-
No that's about a normal weekend now. Trials is the cancer that screwed up Destiny and Destiny 2 because of trials crybabies.
-
Sounds about right. Trials has gone downhill ever since they changed the game mode to reduce the number of people who can go to the lighthouse.
-
This is exactly what trials is right now.

2 RepliesGood hiking trails huh ?

1 ReplyI have no idea what state Trials is in at the moment. I have never gotten messages from people asking for money to throw the game, but I wouldn't be surprised. Expect full teams using Antiope, Uriel's Gift and Colony though. We had a great PvP guy in our clan who would do Trials with some other friends, then everyone in our clan would get the weekly engram from Hawthorne. I luckily got Darkest Before and Purpose before he left to join a different clan. I expect Bungie to do [i]something[/i] to encourage more people to play. My buddies would endure Trials of Osiris in the original Destiny to get the loot, but have zero desire to play Trials of the Nine in Destiny 2.

1 ReplyI'll shrink those questions down to this, "Why isn't Trials dead yet?". The sooner Trials dies the better.
-
It’s probably always like that. I haven’t tried D2 Trials yet, but D2 Trials activity is way WAY [b][i][u]WAY[/u][/i][/b] lower than it was in D1, so it doesn’t surprise me that you’d run into the same people multiple times or find more hate mailers.
-
I got a message saying he was reporting me for using a fusion at really long range. Obviously didn’t like dying to a fusion. 😂
-
It's likely to remain a shitshow. Maybe in September. Haven't tried it myself in a while because I ain't got no stack. Also, countdown can go die in a fire.
-
Because trials in d2 blows..PvP in d1 was more fun. Bring back elimination ........
