Hows Iron Banner for everyone so far?
I haven't played it for myself yet. How is it?

IB is a horrible excuse for a event. Sad part is, IB could be a normal PVP mode. But the devs would rather make you think they are actually doing something when they are just recycling the same piss poor event for the simpletons that PVP attracts. To think that people actually are hyped for the same trash as last time. Gotta love all the premades and "no suck" groups that populate the playlists. It's almost like bungie doesn't understand how their game works. 3 more years!!!

15 RepliesBiggest pile of dog shit ive ever seen. Not even gonna continue wasting my time grinding. You need 200 coins to hit 10 packages. Every game is solo vs an entire squad. Gear is shit and armor doesnt even drop. Waste of time and completely lacking fun. At least D1 had gnarly IB weapons AND armor. The DLC needs to be fcking fire or they are fcked. No one will be playing by christmas

2 Replieslets put it this way. I spent £350 on a PS4 pro. £42 on a new 2nd V2 controller £90 on 7.1 surround sound headset. Tonight I'm playing warframe on a PC that I rescued from a dumpster.

Played 1 game and went back to doing public events.

8 RepliesIs the gear dropping @ or below power lvl? Anyone?

it feels like D1 pvp. even if you're playing a fireteam, they're hardly working together.

Its like trials, cant get a single win.

6 RepliesEdited by hexedcoder: 10/10/2017 7:26:15 PMIt's the same as Crucible Quickplay with one or two differences which make it a bit sweatier. 1) Winning matters you get 5 tokens a win 2 a loss. 2) The challanges are a bit harder and will require competence. 3) Fixed gametype - control today I don't know if it will rotate every day this week.

It is awful.

2 RepliesGot hit offline twice out of 3 matches, stopped playing.... Good community we have

2 RepliesPlays just like cruicible, which means that if you are a lone wolf you are going to lose more than you win. Its ok when you first start, as you will probably get the reputation package after a while whether you win or lose which gives 10 tokens, but other than that, progress toward levels is slow. I managed to have a positive Kd in all but 2 matches, over 2 in several, but because most folks you are matched with as a random don't seem to understand how to play control, you will probably lose a lot of matches by fairly close scores even if you "get good" unless you are randomly matched with at least one other skilled player. Having even one fireteam member to work with can make all the difference, so yeah, randoms will find it hard and boring, teams will find it easy...what else is new? I've always played for the entire week even when I didn't like the context, but I probably won't this time...just seems like too much of a grind. I'll try later again and see if it seems the same to me.

1 ReplyToo much MIDA, not enough skill.

2 RepliesIts full of incompetent teammates.. People who dont know how to play the objective. Iv been on a team where no one caps zones, get triple capped, and people just run by the zone. Or people who take one zone and then dont push from spawn to take another..

I don't play crucible but I enjoyed playing with my clan this morning. I got the HC, it's pretty cool. Really the system doesn't bother me. I think the gear should require some grind (with or without any added perks). I say this because I've noticed that rewards are handed out like candy and I've seen many people complain (rightfully so) but then when the rewards that should take time to acquire aren't given at the end of every match, raid, event people complain they didn't get it. I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong, I'm saying we all enjoy (or don't) the game for different reasons. That being said, it is something to do that if you enjoy crucible can be rewarding and if you don't really enjoy crucible (like myself) you can still have fun with your clan (fireteam). Maybe get some loot you otherwise wouldn't. I don't suggest for anyone like myself (bad at PvP) to go into matchmaking, it should be very team based (IMO) so solo casuals might have a hard time. Probably similar to competitive mode.

It's year 3 and players still don't understand how to capture points. Just like destiny in year 1, people would just run around and shotgun everyone and then wonder "how did we lose?" As they looked at their 1.5 k/d with 0 captures. Honestly, when the matches are good, Iron Banner is fun and enjoyable. When the matches are filled with people who missed the memo and think it's clash, it's dreadful. I'm running around, getting kills, capturing points, and clearing points from enemies. What is my team doing? 2 of them are fighting over power ammo that has :45 seconds, and one of them just tried soloing the whole team with his fists for the umpteenth time. It's just horrible to see the end game results. People with 0.4 k/d's and 3 captures and here I'm getting 1.5-2.0 and up to 15 captures. I'm pretty sure i have gotten so many objectively correct badges, I could build a team with them, and they would do better.

1 ReplySame garbage it was in D1. And when you get to play Distant Shores (of Time) it's like D1 all over again!

Got 2 exotics back to back so it's a better grind that way than doing public events.

2 RepliesAm I to understand that the light level of loot is [b]LOWER[/b] than your current light level? Is Iron Banner a infusion-fuel-farm or not?

3 RepliesPost match rewards are 100% of the time not IB gear. Rank up engram = 70% of the time not IB gear.

Edited by puppyk1sses: 10/10/2017 8:10:55 PMYou get 3 packages each day assuming you have 3 chars. The daily challenges give you 21 tokens each and they are DAILY. If you did nothing but the daily challenges each day on all 3 chars you would have: (21x3x7) = 441 tokens. 22 packages. If you add in the post-match tokens... let’s say it takes you 3 matches to complete the challenges, you win 1 and lose 2. You would have an extra (9x3x7) = 189 tokens. 441 + 189 = 630 tokens for the week. This is for playing 3 7 min matches on all 3 chars. (3x7x3) = 63 mins per day time spent. Just doing the bare minimum (challenges only) you will spend 1 hr per day (~7hrs total) and get (630/20) = 31.5 packages AND complete your Seasonal Reward quest on all 3 chars. The tokens are account-based so you can use them for whichever char you want. That’s not a bad haul in my book. Bonus points if you throw in some music and a Fireteam Emblem and just chill. You will end up with extra exotics / tons of crucible tokens on top of that. Tl;dr do your dailies. It’s far and away the most efficient way to get tokens. Best news is all of us can do it and you don’t need OPAF fireteam a to do it.

It was okay. Played 11 matches earlier today, which came around to...uh...2 rank ups? Nothing interesting in the loot, just the titan armor and the sidearm. Gameplay-wise, it's okay. A welcome break from nonstop Supremacy, at least. I've won more than I've lost, but there were an oddly low number of clan teams, so that probably made it a little less pub-stompy. It's D2 crucible, for whatever it's worth.

23 RepliesEdited by Mr Fats: 10/10/2017 6:34:12 PMI took a break after 3-4 hours of playing. You might not want to hear this but is as usual, if you like the current crucible you will be ok, lots of sweats but nothing too horrible. If you dont like the current crucible then you are heading for a nightmare. I am one of the latter. The worst part is that the rewards that drop are not IB rewards but crucible, which means you can only get rewards by exchanging tokens. You get 5 tokens per victory and 2 per defeat, which means that, since the average game is around 7 minutes, you will need almost 6 hours to reach the milestone if you win EVERY game (not counting the time you spend looking for a lobby) or, wait for it, 15-16 hours if you loose. That's on average 11.5 hours (assuming a 50% win/loss ratio), in 1 week... per character.. the only words that come to my mind are ... go f... y...elf lol So for me, its bad, and the fact that I hypothetically will have to play so much for so long (basically 8 times the amount of crucible I have played so far) makes it bad... really bad Note: Actually I just reliazed one thing, I change to my titan I couldnt take playing with my warlock anymore and realized that the milestone is shared among all characters, this is actually not that bad... still a pain to level up but if you do the daily challenges on all your 3 characters you will complete the milestone much quicker, so sorry for the confusion

I hate it especially the challenges!. Now getting 5 kills in one life would be a breeze in the crucible not on IB my average kill streak is 5 or 6 and my best is 11 in IB i can't even get above a 2 kill, They have literally sucked the fun out of it as Bungie always manages to do! the only people that are going to get any enjoyment out of it are the cheaters and those players that take it way to seriously.. I personally can't wait for FAR CRY 5 to be released.
