PvP oh how I've missed you!

As an old man with old man reflexes I've missed the cut and thrust of a good game of control ever since bungie turned off SBMM. I'd personally therefore like to thank bungie for turning it back on again (even in its loose form). Instead of one sided pub stomps and me struggling to chain two kills together now all matches close, no stomps and i actually stand a chance against other players. Lag better too imo, certainly no worse. I'm actually enjoying/playing PvP again! Thank you, thank you, thank you bungie. PS please don't turn it off again.

    I’ve been enjoying it quite a bit. My [i]only[/i] gripe is how often people leave the lobbies I’m in. I’m not going to say I’m a phenomenal player by any means, but I’m definitely within the “above average” brackets. To me, getting matched with new lights and people who were obviously less experienced with the game felt grimy and not fun. First off, I wasn’t getting better and neither were they. Playing people that far below my experience level wasn’t fun at all and wasn’t helping me improve at the game. Sure, throwing up crazy high kill games can be nice, I don’t like the feeling of demolishing a team when there’s such a massive disparity of skill. It’s not satisfying So now, I’m in lobbies with other players that are very good, and in a lot of cases better than me. My matches have been challenging in a good way. Aside from the games where everyone starts leaving and one team snowballs because of that, it feels competitive! Games are close, and I have to think a lot more about the game at a higher level. Generally, I just find it a lot more engaging to play with other people at my skill level than having blow outs game after game. I really like the changes so far and hope they look towards solidifying the system in the future.
