I did a midway Feedback on Day 3. Doing another poll now to see if the results changed. Link to Day 3 Poll: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/193657891/0/0
Same questions as before:
[i]Just curious how you guys rate this IB compared to the last one?
Is the lag better? Worse? The same?
What about the rewards? Better, worse, the same?
How do you like the game mode?
Are the teams pretty evenly matched?
If you're a solo player, are you getting blown out by fireteams?
Are you frequently being put into losing matches?
How is the weapon diversity?[/i]
Edit 1: So far the reward system and lag are the biggest complaints. Many people would like to see higher light level drops after games and from packages.
Edit 2: Just noticed somebody downvoted this [i]constructive feedback.[/i] Would appreciate it if a few of you could like the post so it doesn't get buried under nerf posts.
Edit 3: Quote from user @Eighth Kind that made me think: [quote]"Such a low weapon drop rate it's ridiculous
7 games of cd [Crimson Doubles] for a 320 ghost
75 games of iron banner and not 1 weapon drop"[/quote]
Edit 4: My Rank 5 loot:
-310 ghost
-313 Colovance's Duty
Post-game IB drops:
-280 helmet
-310 ghost
-290 Weyloran's March
English

For my rank 5 Package I got a 310 ghost and a 310 artifact.. Complete waste of time
-
I agree, they should buff fusion rifles.
-
Beyond Garbage Drops! First IB of year 2 I actually received decent drops from rank 5. Since then every other IB has been garbage, waste of my time.
-
Why before I vote it says like amost everybody is extremely satisfied ? When I vote it's said the complete opposite, everybody hated this IB

128 RepliesThanks for gathering feedback on Iron Banner. Looks like the poll is pretty mixed and I have seen a wide array of feedback on loot drops and connection quality. Keep sounding off on your personal perspectives of how this Iron Banner went.
-
310 ghost for all three rank 5 packages is a joke. But they can have it, I'm done with the iron banner and grinding in general for shit rewards. I played so many matches and I couldn't get a single gauntlet drop that had either pulse or scout reload speed? DONE.
-
If you were below 305 IB is great Over 305 useless
-
I red barred for the first time. Playing a match with all good connections and it finished close. 10 from 12 stayed in the lobby. Next game I was red bar Another 9 from 12 stayed Next game green bar again. This happened twice, That's my story
-
2 RepliesAnyone notice the glitch in the Hunter gloves? I got the new ones and when reloading it looks like my arm is invisible...
-
Excuse my rudeness (if it is) but PLEASE, o my god, just please fix the rewards system. I was like level 40 and scored the highest score in the Crucible but a level 19 got the legendary. If someone is the highest scoring player, they should earn the highest reward. It would add incentive to win instead of having people sit there for like 3 matches in a row cause they will most likely get great stuff for doing nothing while the ones on the same team have to work their asses off trying to combat twice as many enemies cause half the team is just sitting their. I repeat, it will add incentive to people to try their hardest to be the best and will actually fight in the crucible to try and get top spot.
-
Connections were shit, red bars everywhere, server connection drops left and right causing me to either wait a ridiculously long time on a black screen only able to hear what was going on and then finally spawning with all my special ammo gone and my team somehow down by 2000 points OR getting dropped from the game altogether. Got the same damn rank 3 package as the last four IBs Got a 310 ghost and 314 boots as my rank 5 package when I had a 320 ghost and 318 legs equipped. Useless rewards. Got one 280 something helmet and two pairs of arms for post game drops - all pointless- motes of light, and some strange coins. No one God damn weapon. Stopped playing immediately after getting my rank 5 package. This was single handedly the worst IB I've played in. Why bother making all these connection changes to matchmaking only to revert back to the old shit system everyone hates? Bunch of God damn idiots.

Got a few weylorans with good enough rolls that I kept and tried them out, one at 300 and one at 289. Have since infused them to 310 and 299, respectively. Had a ridiculous amount of gauntlet drops with varying utility. Got a 293 bellows with field scout and clown cartridge. And several ghosts. Rank 5 (across all 3) The ghosts at 310. 313 boots that I infused 317 Colovance's (shit roll) 315 Colovance's (also shit roll) ...all I wanted was the -blam!-ing ship.
-
1 ReplyI got a petty sweet weyloran's March at 282 with hidden hand, ambush, and triple tap; so I'm pretty alright with that. The errors killed it though.
-
I got 311 boots in my rank 3 package when I had 313 ones why...
-
Edited by SoAnnoying: 3/2/2016 10:20:20 PMOMG, it looks as if Bungie has taken down and hidden the "Iron Banner Matchmaking Settings" topic. In deed, it does not show up in any of the forum search results. So much for "Be Brave".... P.S. However, it does shows up in Google....
-
Well I got a 295 IB sniper with firefly and explosive rounds and an ambush scope so this was the best IB ever
-
Damage referee aka lag comp is the beginning of the end for any peer hosted fps. The increased complaints of lag just confirm it. D2 dedis or gtfo
-
3 Characters Rank 5. 1 Drop I'm keeping for use. Clash wasn't remotely fun. I'm not interested in a game mode where everyone stands around sniping and/or masturbating with their neighbors. Lag was abysmal. I even saved some videos.
-
Had decent drops but the only bad thing was the plethora of snipers. Every time I turned a corner I would see that damn glint of 2 or 3 people just hard scoped. I instantly defecated from rage when it was pantheon or shores of time.
-
clash was fun the lag was too much the loot was poor (definitely needs a buff!!!!)
-
Lag is always a problem for me. I upgraded my internet (105+Mbps), bought a new cable modem and router (Netgear AC1750) , i have always used hard wired instead of wireless, and I also completed the Xbone port forwarding stuff.. Still guys teleport all around me, I melee someone and they die 3 seconds later, fusion grenades fall off of blade-dancers, half of my shots dont register, I die when someone shoes me twice while I unload an entire clip into them.. not sure what else can be done to improve my connection.. I never see myself with a red bar but all these other things continue to happen..
-
[i]Is the lag better? Worse? The same?[/i] I see more lag and teleporting from players who are ostensibly green bar than before. Usually 1-2 red bars per game, though. [i]What about the rewards? Better, worse, the same?[/i] Rank 5 rewards were worse, drops still totally unpredictable and as a result, poor. I got 4 Weyloran's march in one day; otherwise that was pretty much it. Lots of my teammates had nothing at all drop that was worth keeping. [i]How do you like the game mode?[/i] Clash is eh. I could take it or leave it. [i]Are the teams pretty evenly matched?[/i] Matches were mostly reasonably close, only a few were won by more than 1500 points. [i]If you're a solo player, are you getting blown out by fireteams?[/i] No. [i]Are you frequently being put into losing matches?[/i] When I was put into a match in-progress, it was, with one exception, a losing match. Usually the opposing side was up by 2-3,000 points. [i]How is the weapon diversity?[/i] Much worse than regular crucible. Pretty much MIDA and snipers, with the occasional Doctrine of Passing in there.

Gear was only dropping at 260-80 2x Snipers were my only worthwhile weapon drops, everything else that dropped was deleted as useless. Rank 5 package 308 ghost....shard!

1 Reply[quote]Just curious how you guys rate this IB compared to the last one?[/quote] 1- Good 10- Bad 4. Reason for rating: Saw too many things which made me question the flow of maps when Trials equipment not necessarily 310+ is used. Trials is definitely important, but it should absolutely not be able to perform as high as it reached. Gun metrics do not suddenly jump up that high just because you made it to the lighthouse and got an adept weapon. [quote]Is the lag better? Worse? The same?[/quote] Lag was non-existent outside of a single match for the entire 7 days. The match I speak about though? I recorded clip after clip after clip on the Xbox Studio. Doors open, crates registered. Radar contacts around me, but not able to see anyone/not be able to shoot or be shot. Consistently found myself running in circles from one end to the next, but with each pass? More doors were not formed on the map and then suddenly they all appeared fine. [quote]What about the rewards? Better, worse, the same?[/quote] I only play to 3 characters rank 5. Same rewards and honestly? Good for getting my light up only by small fractions, but I still love my 320 nirwen's mercy from last IB. It's my primary gun to utilize for even HM raids. [quote]How do you like the game mode?[/quote] The clash mode was built for conflict. The map selection needs to be rotated and what I mean is maps need new entry and exit points. All too often snipers gain the upper hand because they already know where players MUST go to gain momentum. Limited doors and accessways? Change it up. [quote]Are the teams pretty evenly matched?[/quote] This IB was decently paired up though I noticed major differences between my titan (easy wins sometimes for streaks of 3-4 wins at a time) while my warlock had major issues just standing up to the 315+ he consistently got paired up against (normally fireteams of 3 or 4) and barely managed wins within 4 matches. My hunter was the worst pair matchup's though with most of my teammates not really understanding map flow and basically me having to pull 2.66 k/d matches just to net a win while the rest of the team went .67 or lower. I still agree with my year 1 stance: If you underperform for kills + assists /deaths in IB? You cannot get rewards. There is many ways to increase your light level. Crucible is about winning. [quote]If you're a solo player, are you getting blown out by fireteams?[/quote] Quite the opposite. The only time I get blown away is when map control cannot be gained due to sniper lockdown and poor teammates idea of good map flow. [quote]Are you frequently being put into losing matches?[/quote] Only on my hunter, but I have a 320 nirwen's and shadowshot. It's easy enough for my 317 titan. [quote]How is the weapon diversity?[/quote] Two weapons most of all the matches: Trials of Osiris' Doctrine of Passing and mida multi-Tool. Found absolutely no pulse rifles being used with some hand cannons.

This IB was garbage

2 RepliesI got a[b] 312[/b] Nirwen from rank 5 which is unacceptable since I've got a 320 Haakon, but lag was fine for me, as was loot.
