Here's a story for this toxic community. Ever since House of Wolves back in Y1, my friends and I have been going flawless. We've had our fair shares of shutouts, too; we're not the best group, but we can typically hold our own. However, when Y2 rolled around, we noticed significantly more shutouts. This was a shock to us, because we've been to the Lighthouse at least 15+ times. What happened? Out of all of Y2, only one of us went flawless with an LFG team (somehow). No, really, what the hell happened? So here we are, Y3, and we have only one flawless run under our belts for this year. Here's what I think happened. Bungie forgot how to matchmake. Seriously. We do the Boons and all that so we get 3 wins for one game. But what happens between that time? We get actual retards for the first game, (Honestly, like 350's w/ unupgraded blue weapons) and then for some reason, we get Nkuch players for our second game??? N*gga what? Sometimes we beat them, though. When that happens, we get the retards again. No, really. But this time, they're 360. Ooooohhh. We roast them again and we move on. At game 4, we have reached what we call "losing round". This means that Bungie has paired us with the 400+ Light kids with wombo combo Hunters, HoS Titans, and Nova Bomb Warlocks. In addition to their cancerous subclasses, they have the absolute, most meta weapons on the planet, I'm talking Blind Perdition/Clever Dragon, Matador/(insert any sniper here), and Gjallarhorn. WHAT THE F*CK HAPPENED? WHERE DID THESE SWEATBUCKETS COME FROM? DO THEY KNOW WHAT COLOR THE SKY IS? They absolutely destroy us. Always. Round 4 is seriously "losing round". What comes after always tears our group apart for a few days. One of us blames the other for the loss, even though we should be blaming Bungie or the enemies. We then start a salty round 4(2) without a mercy. Guess who shows up. Honestly, guess. Here, I'll put a spoiler so you can guess who shows up after the shitbuckets. [spoiler]The absolute, worst, most terrible retarded kids on planet Earth, I'm talking kids without [i]thumbs[/i], people.[/spoiler] Yup. Really. But by then, we've been consumed by the salt of our loss, and we just don't have the will to go on afterwards. We usually make round 5-6 and we encounter more sweaty kids and we typically lose. By then, we typically split off to our own games, mostly Dark Souls, Battlefield, or Overwatch, and try to forget about how stupid Trials really is. I know there's gonna be people who disagree with me: you're probably a shitbucket yourself. I know that there are some that agree with me: thnx bby. And of course, there's those who are just gonna say "get good". You fall in with the shitbuckets. kys [i]What I want to know is if this pattern of retards and sweaties happens to anyone else or if this is my group's curse.[/i]

It was fun while it lasted. But, I prefer regular elimination.

Whilst I do enjoy no revives and would like it to stay, some people's reasoning is dumb af. Get off mTashed's nuts with that stupid video of his. Revives DO NOT reward dying. It's possibly the dumbest thing I've read floating around these forums in a long time. If you're in a scenario where a revive shield hinders you, then you're in no mans land. You should either be close enough to stop that revive from happening or far away enough to not be affected by immunity frames. Tired of hearing people complain about revives giving an unfair advantage when in reality they were caught with their dick in their hands. TL;DR - if you let somebody get a revive and the reason isn't because you've stopped pushing to also get a revive, you're putting yourself at a disadvantage.

Honestly I liked it alot, gave it a more edge of the seat feeling. It was fun to see how certain tactics started then changed as the matches went on.

The game is not prepared for no radar activities because we can't hear anything but jump and shots. Trials is fine, if you can't do it with a radar then you shouldn't go flawless.

You probably enjoyed it because you are one of those noobs who camp around corners with shotguns.

No revive? Yes I think that should be standard in trials from here on out. No radar? No. Radar should be on.
