This meta is skilless and boring.
I am very curious of the pvp player count since shotguns got buffed. Personally I refuse to play crusible until the meta changes, it's nothing but shotguns, and pulse rifles.
What do you think of current meta?

Edited by Smough: 9/26/2018 5:13:18 AMPulse rifles with insane tkk’s and range with shotguns for close range? Yeah, as somebody who prefers precision weapons this meta is terrible and I can hardly play pvp and enjoy it anymore. A sniper against a pulse rifle? Please, I get hit with one burst and I’m half health and aiming at the sky!
-
You see that poll? everyone on the 'love the meta' side is old players who got bored with the hand cannon meta and want something new and fresh and everyone else is the people who play other pvp games and realise how dumb it is
-
sry for you but console meta is all time easy mode meta
-
I use whatever weapon I want and make people feel less about themselves
-
I mean, the bottom tier is skill-less and too tier can counter the meta. Until a clear primary winner is found, I’m having fun.

I can say there are more viable options, although from my experience most people tend to go for what’s mainstream which would be the new pulse rifles and shotguns. I run a very specific set up that’s great against shotgunners, Cerberus+1 melts them extremely fast and with practice can compete at medium range, for secondary it usually depends on the map scout/hand cannon. I’ve seen other loadouts that range into every weapon category but most of the time it’s usually a shotgun. I prefer this meta compared over the graviton lance/ vigilance wing meta, I was only able to ever counter with the Jade rabbit.

I’m sorry you feel this way and I understand why. However, with the current guns or loadout, they fit a certain gameplay. You need to find out what your “play style” is and utilized weapons that best fit that criteria. Before Forsaken, I was utilizing Graviton or Vigilance. Now, I’m using a completely different loadout that consist of hand cannons. Long story, short. You just got to learn to adapt to your opponents play style. They want to use pulse rifles? Then use one. This is were “skill” comes to play. The one with better aim, simply wins. They use shotties, use one. Just outplay them.

4 RepliesSo you don't like the meta where almost every gun is viable to use in crucible? Pulses, autos, smgs, scouts are all viable and have their spots to shine. Shotguns have plenty of counters in side arms and fusion rifles which are all great. Fusions and side arms I'd argue are much better than shotguns as a secondary option. The meta works with whatever play style you want right now just equip the load out based on how you play and pay attention to the radar and where you are on the map to get in engagements that benefit the load out you're using.
-
Yeah, because "Graviton Lance" was so skillful. Smh Oh, btw, I don't use shotguns at all, or bows so.. I just think it's hilarious how people from one meta hate on the other meta. HA HA HA
-
4 RepliesI think my average efficiency has doubled since I started using a sniper instead of a shotgun. The meta honestly feels great. Every weapon type so far feels viable when you adjust your play to suit your loadout.

3 RepliesBetter than pre-forsaken/teamshotting

Edited by Freak: 9/25/2018 6:26:29 PMThis meta is better than the butt hugging that went on in Yr1!

Edited by Apollo_XIX: 9/25/2018 11:58:07 PMHonestly, most options feel powerful within their effective ranges right now. The only things that feel more on the meh side of things are Fusions, Autos, and Swords

1 ReplyOut of curiosity, which meta did people think it took skill? Every new meta people complain it takes no skill, there is always gonna be a meta, this one has the most choices, as there is more than one way to play.
-
Meh. I'm doing alright with a handcannon and bow.

4 RepliesEdited by OLDSCRATCH4: 9/25/2018 11:22:13 PMSo then everybody is on top of the scoreboard, every game? Every person, in every game has a positive kd? So you can stand in the spawn, shooting the wall, and you'll be at the top of the scoreboard? You can just run in a random straight line and randomly mash the fire button and you'll get a "We ran out of medals" and "Seventh column" medal? If it doesn't take skill, then anyone with a grain of skill should be finishing every match with a 40+ and 0 kd. See the complete fallacy in your argument yet?

never actively played crucible.... i endure this hell for the powerfull engrams and some qeusts, thats it.. pve is where its at for me.

2 RepliesThe poll would like to have a word with you

2 RepliesSo you would rather be killed by Graviton over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over?????
-
Yeah not a fan. It's either you have ace of spades and a shotgun, or you die. Also, full fireteam or you get run over by a full hardcore crucible 100+hr a week clan. It needs to be split into solo and group que. Skill caps are whatever, but if I jump in to just have a little fun and shoot some people, I'm not into trying to break the ceiling to try and go balls to the walls in non-competitive stuff.

2 RepliesAll you’ll get from this forum is “git gud” and “Crucible is the best it’s ever been” as this forum is mostly populated by the hardcore, very vocal, very small minority of the overall player base. The vast majority of the player base aren’t here. If you were able to survey the entire player base I think you’d find that most would agree that the Crucible sucks at the moment.

4 RepliesPoll failed. Majority love the changes

Please fix spelling...please.
