Coming back after about 8 months off… iron banner is the worst it’s ever been.
-
It's about the same as it was before. I do wish they would tie eruption to the smaller maps, though.
-
Lol seems fine to me.

Edited by ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ: 10/10/2023 10:19:33 PMBeat it the first intro, this season. Ain’t about to hop in, now. The weapons aren’t worth the grind, anyway. Garbage.
-
It’s because of the game mode. If you don’t get kills (likely because you’re rusty) then you don’t get buffs. If someone else gets a certain number of kills then they get buffs and eventually get supercharged. Caiatl ruined iron banner. 😭

Yes yes it is

Definitely looked forward to iron banner in the past. But I think most of you are right, Eruption is trash. I think to make it slightly better, radars need to be disabled. Maybe that would help against the team of 6 basement dwellers that hold hands in their spawn.
-
The main problem with eruption is that it greatly benefits players with bad connections.They are literally unkillable.

3 RepliesIt’s the eruption game mode and fortress game mode that I find unpleasant. Why can’t we just have regular old control banner.

2 RepliesFireteam based and sbmm at the same time has ruined my fun for 4 seasons now I think so I feel the pain.

Edited by ManatuBear: 10/11/2023 6:16:18 AMGot the 2 weapons I wanted, with (most of) the perks I wanted, after 7 engrams so I'm not setting foot there again this season. Hated every second of of it. The only fun in pvp is Mayhem now, everything else is so sweaty. Mayhem can be fun because people don't take it as seriously as the other modes, it's just super spam.

1 ReplyIt is terrible your not wrong there worst mode in the game and awful rewards too 🤮
-
It's rough. Long queue times, unbalanced matches, lag etc.
-
3 RepliesWdym you don't love Bungie blowing you up after 5 kills/assits and 6 people having wall hacks on you??? This is the Bungie preferred game mode.

4 RepliesEruption is one of the worst modes ever conceived
-
Agreed: 1. Game mode needs work, if you get your 5 kills then the team is respawning on the other side of the map, by the time you get there you have 3 seconds tops to get a kill. 2. SBMM, makes the game a slow team fire long range snore fest. 3. It's a laggy mess getting killed through cover and around corners.

Ive had my fill of Iron Banner. Too many laggy players teleporting. Its legit unplayable.

1 ReplyEdited by NotCreative123: 10/12/2023 2:48:05 PMInstead of making 1 game mode active for the entire Iron Banner, I wish they assigned a random game mode every game, like Comp does. [u][b]IB has:[/b][/u] Rift Control Eruption Fortress Zone Control Clash (Also wish they added 6v6 Countdown) It might be fun to play a wide assortment of modes every IB.

1 ReplyJust be thankful it’s not Fortress mode

You’ve been off for 8 months and you’re complaining that iron banner is bad?
-
Just be thankful it’s not Fortress mode
-
Yes, annoyed at having to do Eruption again. It takes way too long to get the 25 wins needed to complete Glorious Howl for the Seal.

Edited by Grizzled-Wolf: 10/12/2023 1:12:58 PMI agree with the guys below as well, rewards are crap, if you already have the armor it’s kind of meaningless and on top of that you can’t get bounties any more, which I hate, and well PvP in general is not new player friendly the skill required to do well and the pay to win meta is overwhelming, iron banner does get more player involvement but over all it’s basically all the trials guys coming in to mop the floor with every one who didn’t buy the dlc. So it’s always going to feel bad. Even if you did buy the dlc and your playing with the best your still going to run into sweaty players. PVP player population isn’t great and since Destiny 2 isn’t a PvP focused game I guess we all just have to deal with the crap or play something else.

26 RepliesOddly enough, as bad as I am at PvP I actually look forward to when Iron Banner rolls around.

2 RepliesPlayed six games last night with my buddy. I was at the top of my team every time at the end. We lost every game. Also I think the eruption game mode is the worst. Everybody just sits back and camps to get their kills. Not to mention the game is slow moving and times out nearly every time. It absolutely sucks.

It is awful and the weapons are not good. Give us a reason to farm IB and PVP.
