funny how bungie said it would be better for lower skilled players but its loaded with top tier players regular is so much better even with stacks. Just an observation not complaining
-
without sbmm all the top tier players are going to go where is an easy win.
-
Because it’s so full of low skill players because they asked for it top tier players can stomp without effort. Freelance was always a mistake.

For me, on xbox, population feels dead. The ones who renain are all sweats, using scufs n meta. Freelance has really long mm times n often started 4v4, standard is better but still full of scuf 120 unbroken guys who do 3-4 things at once. Connections are horrific, mercies are nonstop n its gotten that bad i turned off last night when my team got mercied with just 6 kills, broke up teans, 10 min mm wait, same teams again (all solo) and we where 0-65, my tesm cudnt get a single kill. Ive held a 1.70 kdr across all shooters for over 15 yrs, n to get 0 kills, not be able to damage people, often not even be able to track or see people, n play in teams who get 0 kills total, is mindblowing. I turned off, not sure ill be back honestly.

Funny. I noticed this too. Went back to regular. 🤷♂️

A game mode considered endgame PvP is filled with endgame level players? [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/726685171604258838/807867898034782229/image0.png]Mind blown.[/url]

Because people can pick wherever they wanna play? How disgusting
-
Because it’s got the sweatiest of the sweaties. The matchmaking in banner has always been this way. Most people call it after finishing bounties, the rest continue on saturating it with higher skilled players.
-
4 RepliesBecause its not skill based like standard IB.

Edited by distractedFreek: 3/29/2021 6:24:14 AMI had no problems with it for the few games I've played in it. If anything I actually had a fun time with almost no mercies.

I ain’t touching it

14 RepliesBecause they go where they can get easy kills because they can’t stand losing and as they refuse to say so they farm kills. It’s one of those that it can’t be controlled because developers refuse to do something about it cause it gives them free advertisement.

7 RepliesThere is not a way to fix that except with SBMM. Streamers and the top % want easy games to boost their K/D. They will tell you PVP is supposed to be hard and you just need to get better but they fight and scratch to keep SBMM out of the game so they don't face equal competition. It is really pathetic. They want easy games to get the best loot to make killing you easier. Bungie has created a snowball effect with the loot in Trials by making it more powerful. It should just be cool cosmetic items that they can brag about. Not an OP weapon. Any who...it has all been said before.

Well, it isn't. You're exaggerating. But, it does have a lower population than a good IB playlist would have, so your matches are gonna suck and the skill discrepancies between the teams are gonna be very big more often than not. That is the penalty of spitting the playerbase. This is the pie people wanted. Now they get to eat it.
-
Because with 12 players and just bare connection, no intelligent matching we're guaranteed a number of meta-cheesing higher players. And they just farm the rest in every game. Which is why the game is trash.
-
KD boosting, and it's easier to complete bounties in Freelance than in steamrolls that end quickly.
-
They would rather individually and feel “special”
-
The new system will try to make both team equal ....problem is how bungie calculate skill...is it last match based? Elo? Overall Kd? Comp currently is broken a 300 glory can fight a 3k + if did decent the previous game..... Honestly I wish they would make PvP a more fun environments and not this "competitive mess" they been failing at for years
-
because top players want to farm lower skill players. they go where the fish are in the barrel.
-
last ib i only played solo que this ib I'm only playing normal que normals been a much more enjoyable experience
-
2 RepliesI’ve noticed this too. Watched some PVP YouTubers and their opponents have no thumbs. When I play my opponents don’t miss. I drop dead if they even gaze at me.
-
Freelance has been way sweatier for some reason. Going up against a full clan in regular IB seems less sweaty. Way less.
-
16 RepliesActually Freelance is SBMM. They just haven't figured it out yet......
-
Because CBMM.
-
It needs to change to a Team Only Based Playlist instead of Freelance.

1 ReplyEdited by Hal Jordan: 3/28/2021 1:49:23 AMBecause like us, we don't want to go against stacked teams and that would ruin their precious KD ratio 😢
-
Freelance banner should be SBMM right now. Might be why.
