The gamemode is hot garbage, we all know it. Going to bank the first motes and MEDIUM BLOCKER INBOUND!!! LARGR BLOCKER INBOUND!!!!!! Then they invade, wipe ur team and BOOM that's game folks. How is that fun to literally anyone
Edit: Btw, that was an example. If you think that's the only reason why others and myself despise the gamemode your crazy.

3 RepliesEdited by MightyJandal: 8/2/2019 3:13:46 AMThats why you always need to keep your eyes on the meter up top and the invade marker...its not rocket science. If they’re building up a large amount of motes and they’ve gone past the glowing marker its a sure bet blockers are gonna be followed by a invader. Drop what you’re doing and either get to the bank to wipe out the blockers as they arrive or get into a high flank position to await the invader. Banking second can be an advantage but not if you lost a ton of motes to invaders and you need to bank more than half the meter. Nothing wrong with sending 5 at a time to get your mote meter up then going ham with the large blockers once the opposing team are in their prime evil phase. Prime is a different story, someone has to be near the bank at all times with a shotty or jotunn.

Yep. And people bought into that trash. SMH

3 RepliesEdited by BetweenMyself: 8/2/2019 4:11:17 PMI dunno, seemed to me this week that a lot of people were playing gambit wearing full Solstice gear (with greatly lowered stats) rather than wearing only the armor that required Gambit to gain progress. Was a good excuse to continue working toward Hush. It’s quite satisfying to lodge a shot from Le Monarque in the forehead of an invader with a greatly reduced resilience and watch them explode in a fine purple mist... two precision kills and... forty two percent medals to go until i get hush. this bow better be as quite ([i]edit: [b]quiet[/b][/i]) as advertised or i shall be royally bummed. / (΄◉◞౪◟◉`)

Simply HORRIBLE! Stop forcing people to play that BS
-
So, you played against a team who knows how to play the game? Man i should be salty more often...
-
Usally, the only one with heavy ammo is the invader and he also has an overshield which makes it practically impossible to kill them or get away. Invasions are still too frequent. "Invader is gone" Ok, let me kill these envo... "INVADER IS HERE!!!" Maybe implement an invasion cooldown? So the same person cant invade twice in quick succession (still with the hammerhead ammo) or maybe remove heavy from invaders? Lock the power weapon when you invade

3 RepliesEdited by Majin_Buu91: 8/2/2019 9:18:19 AMGambit was fun when it first came out and i loved playing it, but ever since Black Armory it got worse and worse! Then they made changes and it got more worse... now i hate the game mode while i realy loved it before... i don’t even want to talk about the turd that is Prime! The invaders spawn should be nerfed by at least 50%! If i see that you have to play it for a quest i realy have to take a moment to make myself go play it while i don’t want to, and that says alot... I’m 1 triumph from Dregden but i just don’t care anymore because it’s the one where you have to bank 100 motes without dying, and winning the match... It’s just not worth it imo...
-
So bank first and invade first? A good invade can make or break the match.
-
That sounds pretty fun for the other team? Try and be more like them.

Ok seeing as the in thing is to quote what one has for the game mode being discussed, I have: The Dredgen title Breakneck 21% Delirium Hush Over all to me the most frustrating part of solo queuing is more often than not my teammates. You know the type? Comes sprinting in at top speed while you have 9 or 14 motes to steal that one more so they have a grand total of 1, the ones who have zero motes and run off leaving you carry motes and fighting a knight and those -blam!-ing annoying (ma se poese) Captains, the ones with zero motes who hide from an invader while not acting as a shield to get your 15 motes through, the ones who only invade and actually don't do much etc. etc. That is what makes it more frustrating than dealing with HMGs (funny how real life advise works) take cover, preferably in tighter spaces making them switch to other weapons, same goes for Truth, they can't hit what they can't get a lock on. You can also bait a Truther, get them to fire the missile and then get some hard cover between you and the incoming missile. Once their shots are up advance in between reloads.

Motor sports suck We turned up on our electric scooters and the F1 cars lapped us a bizzilion times! Worst experience ever , of all time. Football sucks We turned up with one leg each and the world cup team scored a bizzillion goals! Worst experience ever , of all time. Lol, like really

that taken captain blocker is pretty annoying to kill

Anyone else despise 6 shot golden gun in gambit?

[/quote] If you're getting wrecked like this so often that it shaped your entire understanding of Gambit, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you should probably consider getting better. If you want to deposit your motes first, there's a bit of a trick to it. Please keep it between us, as it could be gamebreaking otherwise: [spoiler]Collect and bank motes faster. [/spoiler]

I think a team that gets to the primeval before the other shouldn’t be allowed to invade until the other team reaches their primeval as well.

2 RepliesSo if you are bad at a game mode, then it is suddenly the worst gamemode Bungie has ever made? That’s a great mentality you got there.

So they banked before you and then stomped you with an invader? That seems like a problem of coordination for your team.
-
You're doing pretty good in Gambit on your Warlock and yet you complain? It's just not your cup of tea, no reason to go shouting about.

You just basically explained how your team sucks, not the mode.

2 RepliesI feel like I'm the odd man out. I enjoy Gambit a lot, but a lot of people don't want to play Gambit as a team and it ruins the experience of others. When you're playing with teams that hold all their notes and die against teams that fill your side with blockers and spin up their primeval before you can even kill the blockers, it does suck, I agree. It's the sort of objective based game mode that matchmaking is really bad for.
-
I had this happen yesterday. I had 15 motes. Killed all the blockers, opened vault and before it opened completely another blocker inbound and stopped it midway from opening. Lost motes feom being killed. That's bs....let it complete the animation and fully open before the blocker spawns.

It’s not great, but it’s an ok game mode. Some little things have to be fixed, like spawns, invader shield/resistance to rockets or the likes, but the game mode itself is simple: Gambit prime at least: Never bank first: always wait for the opponent team to bank first so your team focuses the blockers, then banks for several blockers to be sent so that you start draining the opposing team’s notes. Only bank 10 until primeval, then 10s and 5s if you’re the team getting their primeval 2nd. Do not kill the last witch before the invader has come and gone or you will lose the DPS session. That said, a lot of people, I have to admit myself too, have been working towards losses as a means to reduce time wasted completing this stupid green gear quest. Helping the opposing team to win is actually fun sometimes! It requires a lot of strategy! Lmfao!
