Casual Pvp

There is a severe issue with the new “sbm ”control playlist. Not only does it take away then fun of control and seems to make more unfair matches, but it takes away the only casual playlist where you could just play crucible. You can use the excuses that’s there’s other game types. The simple argument to that is elimination I’m dead then done till next round or resurrected. Rumble allows me to kill guys but at the cost of slower paced defensive less action packed gameplay. I could play competitive but I can’t play for fun and have to use the same three archetypes of weapons to win. Then there’s my biggest issue the weekly playlist. There are some great modes within the weekly playlist clash, and mayhem, but every other one of them are unfun and crowded with issue. Team scorch for example can be fun but what happens if I want to use my weapons and not a scorch cannon well tuff luck. Rift how about six stack after six stack. But then there’s control which was perfect….until this season. I honestly accepted this change with a complete open mind and for the first two weeks. Then when iron banner came around I was expecting nothing special and an overall dislike. What I ended up finding was the same type of enjoyment I found in control before this season. Not only were the matches fun and fast paced like old control but also I didn’t feel like I had to try to super hard to go on high kill streaks. I was able to relax and get a taste of fun. Then when it went away and had my relaxed fun destroyed by control the next week. I have now completely shut off myself from control and most of crucible. I am a Pve player who has almost got everything done seal and progression wise and would like to do something that isn’t as repetitive as strikes and the same raids over and over again for fun this is the game I am most passionate about and usually changes to this game I don’t mind. But I have finally had enough of just not having fun in the one easily repeatable game mode. Control didn’t need changing on a level that it has now the sbm has implemented. I wouldn’t be this mad if this was either much lighter than it is currently or where the matches have a wider skill range of player in it or if I could just play more game modes where my deaths don’t hold as much weight. I’m aware the bungie devs are trying to make the best experience possible for the players but I feel as if the players should have more options on what to play and how to play. But currently crucible is just too narrow of a play style and it makes it annoying to play any other way. This is especially true for higher levels matches. There also is the simple solution of just not playing the game as a whole and that isn’t the point of my complaints or the reasons I mentioned. Each issue I currently have is the want to play casually. As a last note I would also like to mention the reason I didn’t bring up gambit as a reasonable middle between both getting a pvp and Pve fill in one game-mode. This is because of the glaring issues with the new gambit and issues with invading, being invaded, and team setup. This can be a whole other discussion but for now I would like to leave my complaints with just crucible.
