It’s funny how changing match making on ONE mode has made some unhinged.
PVP streamers were making videos about the curb stomping stacks 2 years ago. They said it wasn’t healthy for PVP and if it continued there would be changes.
Here we are and that’s what’s happened. Lol like they had crystal balls to see the future.

Well that one mode they changed was the only main node mode left with cbmm. I'm not a PvP player anymore but I can see why some people are upset that not a single main mode even one deemed quickplay is cbmm.

Rumble, Rift, IB and Trials are CBMM. That’s 4 modes of PVP out of 7 that are CBMM.

Aren't those all rotating? And isn't Trials and IB SBMM?

Edited by gabezilla101: 9/4/2022 2:13:51 AMLol they’re up all week, IB is an all week thing as an event multiple times per season it’s CBMM. Trials is the sweats end game PVP it’s up 4 days a week. The other two modes are set for a weekly rotation. The majority of modes are still CBMM. The only thing you’re referring to is Control. That’s the only mode that changed. If stacks of high kd players didn’t curb stomp low level players for years it would if stayed the way it was. It was abused to the point streamers were putting up videos warning what would happen. So it continued and was hurting PvP numbers so Bungie made the change. Do you play pvp? Trials and IB are CBMM not SBMM.

Edited by gabezilla101: 9/4/2022 2:18:05 AMOk but understand that the combination of high level stacks farming low level players created issues. Also the toxic behavior with messaging and mocking newbs was over the top. That’s why they changed it. Lol it’s great now. Not one vile message in weeks. Competitive matches are way up and they get to play the mode but against players closer to their own level. The players that hate are the ones quitting matches because their inflated KDs are sinking fast. They changed one mode and it has numbers up not down.

I see

Yeah, it’s all gone a bit loopy in the forums (even more so than usual) 😂

Edited by gabezilla101: 9/3/2022 7:25:07 PMI understand that high level players are having the worst experience in Control seeing it’s a 6v6 mode. Those guys are the actual high level players. Maybe there’s a way to have another 6v6 mode that’s CBMM. Honestly I’d like that to try out what I’m improving on in SBMM. There’s a lot of inflated KDs and egos getting burst lol and those guys are struggling and quitting matches. It’s like seeing the guy in solo Trials with every guided PVP seal and every adept weapon get outplayed by guys that have half his KD and no seals. Carries don’t make someone elite and neither is being in a stack of average guys beating on bad players trying to learn.

I’d like to see a ‘safe’ playlist (loose SBMM Control) and an ‘advanced’ playlist (CBMM Clash). Maybe take the stats out of the safe playlist, to prevent any stat farmers. Maybe add extra rewards into the CBMM playlist to encourage players to step out of the ‘safe’ playlist.
