Let me start out by saying, no I'm not super bad at the game, in fact i consider myself pretty decent. But some of the -blam!-ING BULLSHIT in the crucible is really starting to annoy me. I love this game I truly do, but this game does not love me, not anymore I'm near my wits end.
First and foremost
Exotic Hand Cannons- Probably the biggest bullshit right now, starting with the Thorn. Seriously Bungie? A two shot head shot? Who in the -blam!- thought that would be a good idea, oh and give it the range of a Scout Rifle. And if you want to counter play it you can either cripple yourself with Red Death, or use TLW. And the TLW this mother -blam!-er has been glitched since LAUNCH. Mother -blam!-ing LAUNCH. I got my Last Word about a month in and the fact that the damage modifier while scoped in hasn't been addressed almost A YEAR LATER is appalling. Now let me make this clear for Bungie since they apparently cant read DONT TOUCH THE LEGENDARIES, I say this because what they will hear is this " Seems the player base wants handcannons nerfed...lets just half the damage across all hand cannons" -and then they high five or something. I can hear it now.."STFU noob Ex0ticZ r supp0se to b3 0P lel l2p". Sure they are supposed to be good, but they aren't supposed to be THE ONLY TWO COMPETITIVE OPTIONS.
Blink- The two second cool down does literally dick all, fix this cancer.
Final Round on Sniper Rifles- -blam!-ing for real? The point of a sniper rifle is to land precision head shot kills, perks like this literally remove any form of skill from the game.
Fire-bolt Grenades w/ Burn DoT: The fact this grenade can land in a separate zip code and nearly one shot me from a separate stratosphere is absolutely revolting.
Shot Package- Gives Shotguns such as Matador 64 and Party Crasher/ Felwinters Sniper such ludicrous range that no other shot guns have a snowballs chance in hell of competing. EVEN THE MOTHER -blam!-ING EXOTIC UNIVERSAL REMOTE. Tell me what the -blam!- the point of it taking up an exotic slot is if it sucks more male genitalia than Riley Reid?
Infinite Super Glitch- Titans + Alpha Lupi + Bubble + Gunslingers = Bumhole destruction never before seen on this planet before. Its been around for awhile yet NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN ON IT.
The Netcoding- You would think a game that raked in the profits of some countries GDP would be able to afford servers capable of keeping up with the technology of 1998 but apparently not. Not in 2015 I guess. The fact that I have 120 down, 10 ping, and roughly 20 upload on any given day, yet still can point blank shotgun someone in the face only for it to maybe bring them to half then IMMEDIATELY get my face blown off down the god damn block makes me want to stick my penis through a meat grinder. ( Surely that would now give me more enjoyment and more pleasure than the present crucible experience). And since the last "server maintenance" Which one can only assume is some intern blowing canned air on the back of hard drives, I have probably single handedly seen more one bar lobbies than views on Kim Kardashians sex tape. ./cry
Matchmaking- My team lemmings, enemy team highly trained South Korean E-sports team. Their team both heavies, my team...both grenade suicides. For real?
Grenades and Horseshoes- Possibly one of the noobiest perks in the game, literally no counterplay. If there is PLEASE LET ME KNOW. If there is any counter play to proximity rocket explosions tell me. When the game launched it wasnt that prevalent but holy hell. To even consider using HMG ammo now over rockets requires you to camp until the cluster-blam!- of kill trades is over with.
Auto Rifles are pea-shooters- Kicked them in the nuts, and now they are irrelevant buffing them alone may even counterbalance the complete prevalence of exotic hand cannons. But as it stands now I would rather be one of the 14 people sexually assaulted annually by Dolphins than self-harm myself struggling to use guns such as The Necrochasm in PvP; because Jesus gallivanting Christ are some Autos now complete turds.
The list goes on, the point is Bungie has pulled an infinity ward. For those of you that played Mw2 and remember one man army noob tubes. Pretty much and easy win and the cheesiest tactic around ( hence the name) it only required a simple hot fix yet it never got done. They were too busy figuring out ways to make money as opposed to fixing the game. Also a game published by Activision.
I used to love Bungie. I was like a kid at night whom would say " Daddy I love you this much!" To which Bungie would generously reply with " I love you too son, here have a double xp weeked!"
However, now Bungie is the equivalent to a step dad named Darcy. I want to love him, but hes just not my dad. " I love you this much"
- "Yeah whatever kid..*cracks another beer*"
In the mean time I will just wait for my cry emote...
Rant over...
Edit: Holy -blam!-ity -blam!-, I did not believe I would get this many replies. Keep the feedback coming Guardians!

Great thread lol
-
I'm actually just starting to play crucible more. There isn't really anything for me to do in PVE, other than help others in raids or POE, so trying to improve my PVP skills, maybe one day make it to the lighthouse, and I want the grimoire points from all things crucible.
-
I'm not. I still enjoy a rumble match that I barely won
-
I play it more now then ever.
-
I actually enjoy it, sometimes I mix it up and go with different guns and just have fun
-
Slowly. But let's just wait and are where bungie takes us.
-
Im in love whit your sarcasm!!!
-
Best post I've read in weeks! Good points with even better jokes lol And it's funny how people are saying you need to adapt.....You have a fu¢king [i][u]3.1 kd[/u][/i]. If that doesn't qualify someone to point out flaws,I don't know what does.
-
Im just getting into it. Ive always played pve but im done with that now. I enjoy inferno control
-
I only return to humiliate these scruby hand cannon shotgun users with my still going Euros and fusion rifle.
-
For me its the other way around. Pve in the HoW is just a big let down. Done all the pve stuff too many times. Tired of doing bounties to rank up fwc now i got all shaders and a ship. There is nothing else to do but pvp. It is always exciting and new. Yea everyone uses the same weapons but what matters is the player using them. Everyone has a different way of playing.
-
tl:dr I never really played it anyway.

1 RispondiModificato da DFRO1311: 7/13/2015 5:41:43 AMBro, youre late as -blam!-. I stopped playing crucible in january unless its IB. Crucible is the greatest shit storm ever created in all pvp multiplayers. The sensitivity and frame rate are stupidly low so blink is op as -blam!-. I could get a room full of one year old baby giraffes and theyll make a more balanced and fun pvp map then all of the rust sized PoS maps that bungie makes. Which, btw, cleary caters to shotguns and close range engagements so forget using scouts and snipers. Dont even get me started on the lag and hit detection. I literally have a butt load of clips of me hitting people but not registering or just overall cheese. Everything in pvp is so nooby. One shot kills every where. Its ridiculously uncompetitive. Most of the stuff you said are absolutely spot on. Oh and the holy grail of bullshit, WHY IS MY TEAM ALWAYS FILLED WITH SCRUBS WHO PLAY LIKE THEYRE HAVING A SEIZURE, WITH PARKINSONS, AND TERRETS!? EVERY FLIPPING GAME!

They should fix the Thorn Glitch or just take Final Round off of Thorn
-
You sir, made my day! Loved to read this and a lot of things I can relate with. But the longer it takes, the more I'm done with this game. We'll see...
-
We are soulmates! :) 5 things that would improve crucible - nerf range of handcannons (except hawkawesome which is supposed to be a sniper) in general - nerf impact of thorn (the feature should be the dot, not the friggin ttk) - remove final round on snipers - remove shot package on shotguns - remove grenades and horseshoe I should say that i am using Thorn, TLW, Matador/Felwinter, RL with G/H - and i used to use a final round sniper. But i would love to use a scout rifle - but.. well.. i love to win... soooo... no.

Huge bump
-
Just started playing clash on my Titan and now I'm working on raising my KDR to as high as I can
-
An easy way to balance crucible is to take out the exotics. Exotics are weapons that are designed be guardians to fight the darkness and win, there meant to be overpowered for that purpose. I believe that if you take out the exotics, all of them, then crucible will become more balanced.
-
Ya know when Crucible is the most fun?. When as Iron Banner is up and running and all the thorns and boomsticks are elsewhere.
-
I just go in for Iron Banner
-
The most I do w/ crucible is take my 3 characters to mercury, then back to grinding strikes for a hop scotch pilgrim. I'm waiting for a weapon balance patch before I jump back in as all I see right now are kids who think they're good using TLW/blink shotgun.
-
1 RispondiI stopped reading maybe a third of the way? Sounds like everything in destiny needs to be changed lol Foundation for destiny is not built for competition pvp that's just the truth. DESTINY IS NOT A COMPETITIVE FPS For people that need verification, just look at it as a fun game I suppose. I love destiny love all the pve stuff and love the pvp as well but that doesn't mean it's not built correctly. Waiting on halo 5 at which point I'll still play destiny just pve
-
Yes siree

The ability to reroll weapons at will made PvP worse in my eyes. Especially with shotguns and rocket launchers. As it stands we're seeing more high impact/low rof shotguns with shot package and rocket launchers with tripod +GnH. It's all completely out of control. Even RNG is no longer what it used to be because weapons can simply be rerolled at will. Whereas before players with very unique rolls made everything spaced out perfectly. The game has been far less enjoyable PvP wise these last 6 months, unlike the first 3 where I played every day for hours on end. Only leaving to handle real world responsibilities.

I never read something more true in my life
