How is it really THAT bad to many of you? I've never had any issues with it.
I still don't have any issues with it right now.
This is the second season in a row I managed to reach fabled in competitive mostly solo. I earned recluse, Luna's Howl, revoker, and hopefully mountaintop in the past 2 seasons.
The craziest thing about it all? I don't even use the meta. I'm not a shotgun user, I don't snipe that much, I barely use hand cannons, and I certainly don't use erentil unless I'm just screwing around.
I just don't get how people are having such an issue if I'm not. Sure everything is opinion and subjective, but come on, stop complaining so hard and just play.

Yes it is that terrible.

It is pretty frustrating for me personally a lot of times. I really don't mind losing in a fair way but Crucible seems everything but a fair way. The response time is different on every player you play because of the P2P servers which completely puts you off your aim. Clear headshots one time just kill players in 2-3 shots while on other players you unload 2 complete clips and they barely lose their shields. So lag is frustration number 1. When you play competitive there is a lot of players playing it on other people their accounts to do "recovs" making it a bad experience for other players. Guns that barely require skill that will get a lot of ammo during a game and can one shot players are also really annoying. Players who leave games leaving you with less players then the opponent team. Teams vs solo in match making. The top tier guns that are rewarded only to the gods of crucible (and the cheaters) making the skill gap even bigger. Spawning. How many times do you get killed by a roaming super and Bungie decides to respawn you right in front of the same super again so you can die immediately again. Just to name a few of the frustrations I personally have to deal with...

It was really bad for a stretch with a lot of cheating going on. I haven't played in a pretty long while so can't comment on its current state. There's enough for me to do outside PvP to keep me busy. I used to play PvP often and liked it pretty much before they implemented the new ranking system, shuttered Trials, and introduced the pinnacles. Those three events drove a lot of the shenanigans that gave me pause and eventually turned me off. I may venture back in at some point, but I hardly play as it is due to work, family, and hockey commitments.

4 Repliesno. people can't take responsibility for their shortcomings.

6 RepliesCrucible is mostly fine. It's the people that constantly lose and get frustrated.

3 Repliesis not terrible, have some problems but not terrible, is just crybaby's love to cry

Nah man it's terrible. Not even the fact of OP weapons because honestly that's not the worst part right now. It could be a lot worse in that department. The problem with comp is that solo queuing is a -blam!-ing nightmare. You have the problem with people leaving mid game (HAPPENS A LOT) there's no skill based matchmaking, and before you guys say connection based is more fair, I sit around like a 200 mgb download speed. And I STILL see people who's guardian flies around the map and hits dont register. So clearly connection based matchmaking isn't the way to go. Why am I in heroic 2 and getting paired with niggas in legend??? AND YEAH I CHECKED IT TOO THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES. There's also the problem of if you're queuing with other people you have communication. Trying to figure out what your team mates are thinking is like staring at your dog and expecting it to do math, it's a waste of time because oh look they already ran right into that guys trap and got shot gunned around the corner.

Yes it is that terrible. I get that people still have fun with it and enjoy it, but I cannot stand playing Crucible for quests. I love Destiny’s PvE and think the classes and gear work beautifully for that, but when they try to make you use it against other players and classes, it gets unbalanced and certain gear turns out to be so good that people only use that, dominating matches and further ruining it for other people. I will NEVER understand why they made the Titan shoulder charge a one-hit kill again. Supers are nothing but a pain to deal with. Certain weapons are almost impossible to fight against. Too many PvP quest steps require you doing certain things in the Crucible, which only makes it worse; having restrictions on what loadout you use puts you at an awful disadvantage. How am I supposed to get void Hand Cannon kills when everybody is using Chaperone, snipers, Jotunn, fusion rifles, Mountaintop, Recluse, shoulder charge, roaming supers, etc.?

I dislike it and dont plan on playing it. I play other games to get my PvP fix.

Yeah it's pretty bad, and people can dismiss that opinion in whatever manner they like. One of the more popular ways of doing so is saying the people suck instead. I'm gonna have to reject that however. Only for the simple fact that I do well quite often and still find it frustrating and unplayable during those times. Other details like the realization that the only reason people win is often because of burst damage. The most obscene of them being a super. It is a glorified I win button. I often don't use it because it just feels cheap, and more importantly gameplay wise just isn't interesting. Just like the rest of the one shots in the game. Fun to use and fun to fight is basic design for PvP, and no one really cares so PvP sucks ass. But hey I just suck, and the people that need their COD fix know much better.
-
Well considering that you can't even guarantee that you will spawn in correctly (spectator glitch), yeah it's pretty bad
-
The past seasons it was bad since how Strong Luna was(on console). If you didn't get it in the first comp season of Forsaken you were screwed cuz now players in lower classes have that gun. Other than that just general comp issues. Teammates who refuse to go into comms, who throw or just keep on dying Maybe a big issue it's filled with game modes that you can't practice in regular playlists. So a lot of people could be bad at countdown and they get that mode in comp it's no wonder they'll panic. I do say the ranking is flawed. When a season ends everybody is at 0 again. Which means if you want to play comp at the beginning there's a high chance you are with brave guradians while the enemy is were mythic or legend last season. If the mode had placement matches it would be way better. Like 1 match for each mode.

Aside from some awful weapon quests granted some of them are for crucible so it’s understandable. But it can be really frustrating like any game involving multiplayer.
-
Crucible isn’t that terrible but it is poorly maintained for meta, nothing is ever really balanced and depending on the meta and how a player likes to play truly dictates their experience in crucible. However things like the invisible glitch makes it not fun for anyone, it’s just another way the community abuses a bug and this time it ruins other people’s D2 experience.

2 RepliesOverall I enjoy Crucible. Sometimes I win, sometimes they win. I do take issue with supers being a deciding factor in matches and shitty respawns. I certainly don't care for bottom tree Strikers pounding everyone into the ground (incredible duration, armor AND health regen??), Blade Barrage being an unbeatable, instant-murder button and Well of Radiance being an incredibly weak super in any PvP activity. Thats my jar of pennies.

think its bad due to lack of player interest not to mention mayhem is gamemode for this week

2 RepliesEdited by superluigi6968: 7/17/2019 1:38:13 AMThe most frustrating part of Crucible IMO is the part at the end where, if I lose, I get a short speech from an NPC that, being an NPC that hasn't had new lines added since launch AFAIK, has never had to put up with the shit that happens in modern Crucible. It's supposed to be encouraging, but to me, it sounds incredibly condescending. That said, I always look forward to Iron Banner. Not sure why. Maybe I just prefer Saladin as a caster. At some point I'm going to have to do my 25-of-each step that I'm on for Redrix, and if I do alright in Comp, maybe I'll go for Recluse. Unfortunately, from the looks of several posts here, there's some nasty bugs going around in comp right now, and I'd rather not be banned for something that is the game's fault (detecting an early leave when you simply didn't) or have entire matches where I or others sit on the sidelines (Inability to respawn in elimination gametypes). And, all that said, I do have things to complain about, but it's nothing new. General Map design issues (at times I feel like maps are deliberately designed to inhibit sniping, maps being rather small in general, not a lot of open ground) and OEM as an exotic is just a bit much, I feel, but at the same time OEM isn't a massive issue if you stop the train before it really gets going. People complain about super duration and durability but I feel like this is less of an issue with supers, and more of an issue of, again, map design. But only one of those things can be adjusted in a reasonable amount of time, which means that supers are going to have to be nerfed in PvP because you can wipe the other team twice at both ends of the map, not because supers are hyper-mobile, but because maps are relatively small and there's a limited numbers of spawn areas. As far as durability goes, it seems alright IMO until you start weighing in Masterworked armor sets, which I don't see a lot of people talking about. They simply give an increase in DR while in Super, which seems a little crazy given how durable some supers already are, but at the same time, did those players not earn that? If a player has enough EC's to throw around that they can afford to Masterwork their armor, or if they grind for their ideal armorset and masterwork it with the few that they have, shouldn't there be a worthwhile advantage for investing what is supposed to be a scarce resource? After having been in there a while, I feel like the worst I can say about it now is that it's just kind of boring (and broken in certain modes currently). The map design promotes a rapid pace IMO, but the respawn timer is just a tad too long, at least in Quickplay. 5 seconds is a short amount of time by most measures, not so much when you're hot out of the thick of it and want to get back in there right away. Most of my complaining in Crucible these days is "Can I play the game again yet?," and, "Shut up Shaxx." I mean, I could go on about how I wish more was done to significantly differentiate QP from Comp, about how there should be an end-game PvP space where the top players prefer to play so players "just looking to chill out in PvP" won't run into so many "tryhards/sweats" in QP, but this comment is pretty long already, so I think I'll only do that if asked.

Too many ways to get one-shot. In Halo that only happens with snipers, rockets, and nades. It's even more frustrating when you try to do quests like the totally thoughtless mountaintop quest where you need to kill multiple -blam!- with underpowered grenade launchers 100 times and also use those same weakass GLs to kill 3 times in one life 100 times. How do people, who are not masochists, enjoy this shit?

To me I've been used to other fps games like battlefield and other multiplayer rpg games like dark souls what both games have are tactics that are cheap and seen as easy kills but what they have is that with skill good players always outplay any tactic any gun but destiny's pvp is in between pure fps and rpg which leads to neither resulting in unstable pvp
-
Idk what it is about destiny but I’ve never like the pvp now other games it’s great. With that being said I don’t care much if I’m losing or winning and I don’t run meta I just go in for certain things 🤷🏾♂️ Might get mountain top might not not quite sure I only get interested in the pvp portion when I’m completely bored in pve and that don’t happen often
-
Also most people on here who complain aren't very good. They want everything nerfed, and the only reason they can't be good is everyone runs meta. They get shotguned behind every corner.
-
Crucible is not hard or difficult destiny players hate playing against themselves so they over exaggerate the crucible
-
I have never played comp until this season, my glory is pretty low, but I have not found it to be that bad. Even when I'm on a losing team, my personal stats aren't that bad.I am going for my redrix and need to play 25 matches but now I may go after the recluse.
-
I just don't like being one-shot constantly by shotgun corners and sniper hallways. also I hate The Last Word. it's frankly only fun if you're winning.
