They did it. They ruined Iron Banner
They truly did it. They removed the one thing that made Iron Banner unique. Our power level no longer matters.
I enjoyed it when i was out leveled in D1 by 20+ Light. THAT is what makes skill matter. Outplaying a team that out ranks you in power.
Now the playing field is leveled like the rest of crucible. Atleast the gear looks nice. To bad it will be -10 of your power.
I guess there is one other brightside. For one week we can choose a playlist that doesnt change game modes. Guess its to bad its Control and not Clash.
Come on bungie.. What players are you even trying to cater to anymore. I want the thrill back. The grind. The excitment that comes when Salad Hands doesnt have the gun for sale you want and three days in the gun drops for you after a match.. Bungie. What have you done.
Needless to say, i will still play a few matches a day because if this game ever does become what it was Destined to be i dont want to come back in with catch up to do.

Why does it matter so much? Anyone can now play and even if you are using white level weapons on new characters you can join. Destiny 2 killed light level leveling anyway. The 240 nightfall is the same as the 300 with more time added. Enemies are just as tough and light level isn't like year one as a 29 vs 30 character.

Agreed and Disagreed at the same time. We will see how worse it will be.

How the -blam!- is the entire thing ruined just because it's balanced? 😂 You say it's ruined and that Bungie doesn't know wtf they're doing, then say you'll still be playing anyway. Not really that bad if you're still hanging around eh? True, power level was what made Iron Banner unique, but now it's basically an excuse for people to grind Crucible and.. I dunno.. [i]play the game?[/i] Isn't that like the entire argument people make when they ragepost on these forums?

Edited by BaconRiot: 10/6/2017 9:10:23 PMI never liked IB anyway. Power levels are also meaningless. Even in D1, hitting max light was easy enough.
-
Bump because this is as true as true can get. I'm so disappointed.
-
3 RepliesYou forgot to mention that they gave it the quick play playlist as well. Worst of the worst. Gonna grab my white weapons and hang around for the same loot that everyone gets regardless of skill or power level. Yippee. I can't wait.
-
You...You like when he doesn't sell the gun you want? You like grinding? You'd prefer that over actual gameplay? I'm so confused.
-
3 RepliesEven Bungie said in Destiny 1 that if you were within 30 light levels of max there would be no difference. Having power level turned off or on doesn’t make a difference.
-
Thank God
-
I'd play really under leveled I'm D1 and destroy. 30 levels under usually. The average levels now seems to be over 280 and under 305. That's only 25 levels. It won't make much of a difference anyway. Just don't get triggered when a level 160 wrecks your 305 looking ass.
-
2 RepliesI honestly think they have the level advantages disabled right now because the game has only been out a month. I'm sure soon they will bring the level advantages back. It's still early in the game and not everyone has had a bunch of time to level up their characters high enough to even stand a chance against others
-
How good is the loot? (quantity over quality) I’m not sure if it’s worth the time. (1 hour 30 Min to 2 hours.)
-
3 RepliesEhh. There really isn't that much that's different to me. I was close to max level (which everyone pretty much was to begin with) so level advantage didn't matter that much to begin with. The token system is just the same thing as the old rewards; just kind of split the old bounties up into tokens and challenges during the event. Game mode is the same as last time as well (hopefully Control 24/7). I really don't understand why everyone is so up in flames about everything. It isn't that much different than in D1. P.S. I personally like that it's 4v4; feels more Halo-like to me.
-
Light level doesn't matter for anything anyways.
-
4 RepliesDid u forget d2 was made specifically for the casuals who play 1hour a day?
-
Because the armor looks legit they can take the light level advantage away. Besides the way to play iron banner is with a full fireteam; may God be with you when you solo guardians.
-
5 RepliesWhere are the F...ing Iron Banner weapons, Bungie only show armor. Iron Banner - Light Level do not matter any more - 4 vs 4 - Without Iron Banner Weapons What are you thinking BUNGIE, this is not Iron Banner any more.
-
Personally, yeah it sucks they took away the one thing that made Iron Banner stand out from the rest of the Crucible. However, I don't care, because the armor sets aren't reskins, and they look badass!
-
6 RepliesIt's just a generic control playlist now. With a seperate lootpool. #worthless.
-
Level advantage in PvP quit meaning anything when they changed the light level system, so the last half of D1 it was pointless.
-
Is the crucible about, why bother with light levels at all if never actually matters in gameplay?!?
-
They made light level a joke in D1 too. It really didnt matter.
-
Yeah this game sucks
-
2 RepliesI was interested in what weapons they might have for IB as well, but I guess nothing is on the menu. I miss my Lingering Song :(
-
3 Repliesi'm curious about how it's gonna play. i'm not a great PvP player but i always did better in IB because the PvE players would think their high leveled gear made them better than me. [spoiler]i didn't.[/spoiler]
-
Are there IB specific weapons? I didn’t see any in the Bungie post.
