It's safe to say the pvp community had their hopes up for the comp rework. Many were skeptical, and for good reason as for a long time now it has felt like Bungie has abandoned the pvp community and is actively working against to lower the player base.
To not many people's surprise, competitive was just a recycled version of the previous competitive game mode. No special rewards, no weapons, emblems, ornaments..nothing. Just change the rank names, increase it from 5500 to 10000 with a busted point system that makes no sense and has no explanation. Was Bungie actually expecting people to be happy with this? I think a lot of us are genuinely interested in hearing from Bungie if they actually listen to the community. The pvp community has felt abandoned for a long time and it feels as if they honestly want that. Maybe they're trying to push pvp players out because they're working on a new pvp game? Maybe they truly just don't care what the pvp community thinks at all, who knows.
P.S. - you shouldn't lose 200 points in a comp match because a teammate leaves and then it becomes a steamroll. You also shouldn't gain 5 points for a match that's actually a close, good match.

1 ReplyIt feels to me like Bungie are at the point of complete resentment towards the players, just look at the presentation that leaked where they admit to and encourage Devs shutting down people's good ideas when they have the spare time, budget and drive to create extra things for the players. On top of that they don't want to put anything good behind PvP not even some mid teir ornaments for the "revamped" comp. Personally I won't be playing it and I'd consider myself a PvP main but it's just plain dumb. You want to put a massive emphasis on rank in comp and yet it's not rank based match making? Meaning it still suffers from the no.1 issue that was the reason why comp was dead in the first place. That or course being SBMM with absolute TERRIBLE lobby balancing all to grind for literally 0 rewards. TLDR : it was a comp reskin not a revamp the issues that killed comp are literally the exact same

The amount of points you are getting for the win super random, even for your teammates. I remember I had a very good game and my teammate kinda did nothing, he got +200 and I got +5, and the same happened in the opposite way around, I played bad got much more points, doesn't make sense at all, I don't think that even Bungie knows how it works. Still waiting on the return to old comp only ranked matchmaking system

I think it would help if the points gained/lost were broken down, so we could actually see why we receive/lose a certain number of points. From TWAB 11/17/2022: [quote]As you continue to compete in the Competitive Division, your Division Rating is adjusted based on four major factors: - Match outcome: Whether you win or lose. - Division inflation/deflation: How far above or below your division is compared to your Skill. - Match performance: How well you performed on a match-to-match basis. - Player-to-lobby Skill delta: How your Skill compares to everyone else in the match.[/quote]
