Almost the same exact thing happened to me during my 3rd IB Rift match. -Flying into Pantheon -Shaxx announces the enemy has the Rift -300ish - 300ish is the score -Thinks it's not gonna go bad -Spawns in -Immediately getting shot and killed by a Suros Dis 43 before I could even turn and look the other direction to stop being shot at Literally, within the first 5 seconds of me being spawned into the match, I died. I will not being playing another game of IB until Sunday/Monday. It is borderline impossible to play solo. The teams I had been put on were all completely smashed. Losing by 10k+ and getting heavily spawn capped almost within the first minute of the match. By the time I'm off work and home from the gym, it's day time for Australia, England, basically the whole other side of the world. Even if I looked for other players in Recruitment, most would end up being thousands of miles from me, which would destroy my connection to the game. Everyone knows what that does. 9/10 things I saw relating to this IB being Rift were negative and did not want this to end up going through. Of course Bungie doesn't give the slightest fućk. Of course bungie rolls out a different MM system at the same time, because people didn't enjoy the full blown SBMM, during this IB to artificially inflate the amount of players playing IB. That alone would make some players want to play IB over regular Crucible instead. This is not even remotely fun or enjoyable. There should be little to no reason why I should need 3+ people to have any kind of hope what so ever to win matches that HAVE to be won in order to get rep. (outside of the bounties) Rift does not belong in IB. I hope to God that the numbers are absolutely horrible this month and they completely kick having Rift as an IB variant to the curb. I will avoid every IB until the last day if it becomes Rift again. I understand they wanted to try something new, but it could've been rotating playlists. Mayhem Clash, Mayhem Control, regular control or Clash. Each game being a different variant. I hate the Mayhem related variants, but ANYTHING is better than Rift. There's a reason why it's probably the least played 6v6 variant in the game.
