Let’s be honest IB is a _ out of 10
I’d honestly give it a solid 4 out of 10. I don’t find it that enjoyable. No new weapons to chase is kind of a drag. The quest (while not difficult) seems kinda like a cheap way to get me to play for longer than I really intended. While I like having the level advantage enabled because it shakes up PVP and makes it a bit more challenging, it feels like way more of a struggle this time around (just a personal opinion). What’s everyone else’s opinion? Are you enjoying it? Or not liking?

6 Would probably give a 7 if it was not control again. What's wrong with a good old clash ?
-
I give it a BIG FAT 3.

Edited by LZ2001: 10/23/2019 2:36:57 AM6/10 It's Iron Banner... but it was more enjoyable than others I've been in.
-
Seven out of ten. First time I’ve actually enjoyed Iron Banner in a long time. Matchmaking was good and the sand box changes kept deathballing down considerably. Only problems were: no new weapons; and that lockdown mechanic needs to die in a fire....

Solo 4 With clan a 10
-
One session it was a 7-8, the other sessions were low 5s and high 4s. It was quite the inconsistent experience
-
A solid three.

Edited by RPColten: 10/22/2019 8:39:12 PMProbably a 6 right now, but that's due mostly to some outliers tilting the scale of Crucible as a whole. After the upcoming 2.6.1, I think it might be a 7 if they don't shake up Iron Banner for next round. No new weapons definitely holds it back. Honestly though I feel like I can't be the only one who thinks Iron Banner deserves a complete overhaul after this long. Five years and it's essentially just Control with power levels. I feel like it deserves it's own game mode at this point.

Easy 8. Better matchmaking, drops every other game, easy quest, dope ass gear dropping at high stats, and pinnacle bounties. Gimme new weapons, update all old IB armor to ornaments, and slide in an IB exotic quest and Title and it’ll be a solid 11/10

Phew... I would give it a 6 out of 10, I think. The first few matches on the beginning of the Iron Banner week... I don't know if I was just annoyed at things, but I hated it. Matchmaking was awful and either my team was stomped, or we stomped them. I think I only played three matches until I had enough, and every game ended in Mercy Rule. However, after leveling a bit more this week, I started playing again yesterday and somehow things felt much better. Matches were even most of the time, I could actually go after the Quest, and I guess I wasn't as mad as I was start of the week. I went through the entire Quest in about three hours and exactly 15 matches, then did another five for the Iron Banner seasonal triumphs. Felt a lot better overall.

1 ReplyEdited by Viguier: 10/21/2019 11:48:45 PMYou know what is awesome during Iron Banner? Regular PVP, all the sweaters are in IB.

From this past week - Tuesday was about a 5, but by the end of the week I'd give it a 7. It was fun, I got a full set of armor for one of my guardians and finished all the bounties which helped me level up to base 950. When I played solo, I also had some of my best IB matches ever. It was crap when I was in a full fireteam of 6 though. Of course I was about 15 points lower in power at the beginning of the week too. Got some good rolls on IB weapons, even though they were the same we had from Forsaken.

I give 8/10. To me, Iron Banner is the same as regular Crucible. Sure, level advantages are on, but realistically, anyone into it is in there late 930s to early 960s anyway so it really doesn't even matter. That leaves the vendor as the major differentiator. The quest is fine (anyone complaining about having to put down their hc or pulse and use a different weapon for a whopping 15 kills can get over themselves). Even locking token turn in until after the quest is complete is nbd. It only takes like 5 matches to complete the quest, so whatever. Plus you're guaranteed the full armor set? Nice. And it's not grindy. Like, at all. The big deal is the loot, which is why I'm sitting at an 8. To me, with the vendor being the main draw, gear is imperative. So my gut is initially 5/10 for those reasons, HOWEVER, we need to take into account the very easy perk and enhanced perk farm. That's a big deal. So 3 points to Gryffindor. Hence, 8/10.

Easy 7, I don’t like PvP but Iron Banner is always a good way to level up and grind XP. I went in around 915 and did just fine, came out at 925. Not bad for a couple of days. I’d put that number higher if the weapons and armor were different but it’s the usual stuff we see every time.

3 RepliesSo what makes me MAD is that any blueberry that leveled up on PVE now can easily own anyone that’s lower light on PVP These blueberries think they all hard now. This is very frustrating. I can literally empty my mag on them and they won’t die While all they have to do is 2 tap my ass and I’m down...... Soo not right
-
Off the top... I really don’t like crucible. I’m so tired of everything handcannon. I feel like there is an unhealthy obsession with HCs at bungie. That being said, now that I can see the meta finally shifting a little IB wasn’t so bad other than the exponential curve of power level advantages. I used my super on a guy who was 961 when I was 940 and it took three or four hits FROM MY SUPER the get the kill. I mean is that dude OHK the new light people with his primary? It’s just too much. I realize it’s a light leveled activity but it’s my freaking super. I literally felt bad for the 900-920 crowd because I know they were getting murdered.

For me is only 6/10 because of major problem of pvp in general. IB quest is pretty quick, not so long like last season, and IB have know a lot of interest for light after 950 and it's great. But there is always some big problem in pvp. I was thinking Bungie make some big improvements for this season, but I'm wrong. Nothing have change in pvp except heavy timing one week ago. They just have to remove assist=kill to start and I'm sure pvp will be really different, no team shot everywhere, everytime who is really not fun and not fair. Just with this you can have the choice to play differently because today you can't, it's teamshot or die. Second big problem is green ammo everywhere, some players have shotgun or fusion during all games and its not good, primary weapon are quite useless.
-
Its been a rollercoaster for me. I liked the quest, it was quick and nothing too fancy. My problem is that Im trying to get the scout kills for Randy's this IB and if I never ever see Gambler's Ruin and Twilight Gap again it will still be too soon. Also the first two days with only three maps was straight up garbage.

1 ReplyCan we go into the negatives?

1 ReplyI haven’t played a single match/10 Whatever that means to you.

I give it at least a 7 cause it helped boost my light about 20 levels in a day of doing bounties and doing the quest.

Edited by ToRni27: 10/21/2019 2:03:49 PMI can tell you that the IB quest is much better and easier to do this season as last season. All veterans will know what I mean. The quest was a pain last season. Other than that I won't play IB this season at all because armor does not look special, you can not put IB ornaments on the new IB armor and no new weapons. I will save my 1000+ token for next season. So if you are new to IB its most likely 8/10. (Cuz your collection is empty and you will be happy about very good armor stats and new weapons) If you are veteran its most likely 6/10. (Very good armor stats. Armor is looking decent nothing special but you can put eververse ornaments on it to let it look good, no new weapons, IB is fun to play)

7 out of 10. I enjoy IB, I just wish the rewards were gained like in D1.
