Following needs to be fixed when Rise of Iron launches. Crucible is now uber-competitive and filled with 335 try-hards using Grasp, MIDA, Doctrine, Eyasluna, etc. No one is experimenting with different loadouts because all the other primaries are so gimped. And casual players have absolutely no chance, outside of cheap supers. [b]It needs to be shaken up and made [u]friendlier[/u].[/b] Please. For everyone's sanity.
- Snipers are ridiculously easy to use because nothing pressures them, even at surprisingly close ranges, and body shot damage is very high.
- MIDA feels OP as hell (like Suros, Vex, Thorn before it)
- Auto rifles are [i]still[/i] 99.9% useless (Doctrine aside)
- It's nowhere near as easy to hit headshots with primaries (not snipers) as it was in year 1 because of all the weird tweaks to the range stat, etc. I think this hurts casuals the most.
- Hand cannons are too unstable and slow to be fun.
- Titan skating is unbelievably dumb (I main a Titan and 'skating' just isn't what this class is meant to be about; it's meant to be a tank). The solution should have been higher armor to counter high agility of other classes. Other classes can counter Titans too easily through pure evasion.
- CQB is absolutely horrendous. No drama because rangefinder shotgun range ends it so quickly
- Melee hits on someone who is about to strike you with their super frequently do not register.
[b]- Every single match is hyper competitive. That's not enjoyable. It's [i]draining[/i].[/b]
I'm not playing any more Crucible until next patch. I can't stand the lack of variety. And I know I'm not the only one. My friends don't even want to play at all any more - and it's bumming out their excitement for Rise of Iron.
The fun has been gradually sucked out of this game since Taken King dropped. Is it just that the try-hards are left still playing? Well, maybe make the crucible a less hostile environment for lapsed players and it wouldn't be so over-competitive. I don't want to sweat my ass off in every match.
I bet it's all been said a thousand times. Monthly balance updates are needed, in my view, with an emphasis on promoting variety and FUN.
/rant
TL:DR - best loadouts and rolls have reached saturation point, and primaries are mostly awful. The crucible is therefore ruined, and someone needs to hit the big reset button.[quote][/quote]

I'm having fun

It's fun. Not when you win 3 games and then the matchmaking system puts you with the biggest try hards on the planet. Just to show you who's boss.
-
Still seems fun to me.

I agree. Especially for trials. Special weapon kills should not be the primary weapon uses all the time (in snipers). Bungee should take notes from Blizzard in how to balance numerous classes so it can be won with any load out as long as you have the skill. All the top players are hunters with meta weapons... LAME
-
Crucible is the least interesting and in general worst thing about destiny, I saw an image of the new iron banner titan armor for rise of iron and I was just thinking to myself while looking at it "goddamit, now I actually have to wade into the cesspool of bullshit that is the crucible to get that" I really wish that crucible just forced everyone to use a set loadout that rotated or something because the sheer weapon imbalance is horrendous and the imbalance between classes is even worse.

Me and my clan ran in to IB with all thorns equip just to make things interesting gotta admit it was kinda fun we didn't take things to seriously and we ended up actually winning by 1 kill

They seriously need to release more content more often. IMO that's what caused this shitfest

This is coming from a warlock main. - Shotguns are always supposed to "end drama" at close range, you expect people to snipe like it's COD? The range of Shottys in Destiny is nothing compared to shotguns in Battlefield and KSG from Black Ops 2. Those 3 things you stated don't need to be touched, what needs to be touched are primaries overall.

5 OdpowiedziHere are your false statements... I can name 30 different primaries that killed me today. ARs are good, but only the high rate of fire ones perform best. The 77/28 tier sucks. Handcannons are fine... bloom is barely noticeable, if at all. Titan skating is fine... it sure as hell is not as good as a jumping/blinking Hunter to avoid bullets. Competitive matches are fun... if you get into casual matches then chances are you're the one beating up on poor noobs. You think those players like getting beat up on just so you can have casual fun?
-
So what I'm getting from this is that you are bad at sniping, ARs & HCs and instead of adapting and learning like huge chunks of the community has done you want them adjusted to suit you. On top of that you seem to think that a Challenger Mk II is "slow" and that people should not attempt to win in a competitive mode. I find that last one particularly funny. Destiny PvP got panned for so long for not being all the same guns and not competitive - the meta got reworked by Newsk & his team of geniuses and now not only is there a wide variety of guns in use with some players succeeding in areas that others can't even get a kill in, but now Destiny PvP is TOO competitive and is scaring off players who struggle with the basics of aiming and who are otherwise "casual"... Hilarious

Edytowany przez użytkownika mus: 8/24/2016 12:21:46 PMI hate when people say mida is op as hell. It's not, it's just consistent in a meta where all our primaries are shitty and inconsistent. Also the thing about skating, not true. Skating is perfectly balanced it's just that you think it's op because everyone runs around with shotguns. If Bungie nerfs skating many (I'm talking many) people will flip their shit. I agree with many other things (not the first two lines but) most of it. Shotguns and snipers dominate because primaries are bad, matches are hyper competitive and often times laggy, not fun

Phhhssss, im having a blast!

I feel fine playing crucible and everyone's like Oh no people are using popular guns

3 OdpowiedziHow is mida op? It has a .4 second longer ttk than the other scouts of its archetype. Clearly all of the classes are -blam!-ed up. Titans didn't turn into tanks, hunters are okay. Warlocks are the actual tanks. But Bungie has said before that they have no intention to remove or change Titan skating because they view Titans as the weakest of the classes. And really, it's not op. You go fast in a straight line, but if a hunter is running away with high agility (especially with bones and control) a Titan simply can't catch up. You're gaining speed, at the cost of maneuverability. Which is a fair trade. Yes you will be first to special boxes and cap zones. But you won't chase any smart player down. Sniping body shot damage does need to come down. At least to only take a third of health. If you aren't even skilled enough to land the headshot, why snipe? Pisses me off. At this point I've forgotten some of the other points made in your post but one thing [spoiler]Stop being so bitchy and demanding. If you don't like crucible, simply don't play it. Switch up your load out. [/spoiler] [spoiler]i felt crucible getting stale for me. So what did I do? I grabbed some random shit out of the vault. And I went into control with the inward lamp, a telesto, and arc edge. It was hella fun. I've also been practicing nlb. The people who stick to the meta get bored easily. Unless you're a condom, don't sick. [/spoiler]

1 OdpowiedźThe only way it's fun for me is if I play with two friends that are absolutely terrible and get favorable match ups. Otherwise the teams are unbalanced and I get mercy'd often.
-
11 OdpowiedziI was using all the OP weapons, played crucible for 35 days, knew all the maps, tactics............and still lost the most gunfights. Not because i'm bad, but because of latency lag. That's why i quitted Destiny, yesterday. I put my gaming monitor in the closet.

I think people jumping and running on top of the ball in the tower makes the crucible lag. Lol

1 OdpowiedźIsaiah is lame

Can totally agree with crucible being very "un fun" since December of year 2
-
1 OdpowiedźThe only thing there that gets me is High impact snipers and body shot damage , range doesnt even count regardless how far a high impact sniper leave you with a knt hair of damage which ia ridiculous also grenades that follow you half way across the map,should be taken out
-
To many scout rifles

Edytowany przez użytkownika Stuie54: 8/24/2016 9:39:28 AMI think they should just simplify everything. All primaries should have the same time to kill and all be effective at the same ranges across archetypes. The game is so imbalanced and the way they have decided to balance archetypes creates different metas whenever something is nerfed/buffed. If all primaries are as effective as each other then it would come down to personal preference. Special weapons need addressing but if primaries were more viable then the special weapons would not be so much of a crutch. Honestly this game is just far too complex to have fun or competitive pvp. At the moment is just frustrating most the time. And all those saying 'play with different load outs blah blah blah' are totally missing the point.
