LOL you can’t put RNG in a competitive scoring system

First time developing a game, Bungie? Please tell me someone quality tested this before— Nevermind. Obviously, QA doesn’t exist.

  • PvP should’ve been a quick rank based thing kinda like comp. Pve activities should have all RNG enemies ALWAYS spawning and it should be an average score not just a high one. That way it’s how well you play and not just one run where the stats aligned.

    • This is what happens when you use content for something other than what it was intentionally made for. And this shouldn't have come off as a surprise. Bungie has been doing this for years with how they've been using Battlegrounds as substitutes for Strike GMs.

        • That's like saying you can't put a fork in a live electric socket. Turns out, you can and I'm sure people on Bungie's staff have. I'm also sure they'll do it again.

        • [quote]Obviously, QA doesn’t exist.[/quote] actually, this is true. from what i've heard the entire QA team was fired in the last round of layoffs. it's upsetting to say the least also yeah i don't think a leaderboard situation is good for d2's identity or player base, personally. this isn't that kind of game.

        • This is the same company that at one point tried to do SBMM, altered their matchmaking algorithm to try and force a ≈50% win rate for everyone, level advantages, and one or two other things I can't remember that all contradict each other in Iron Banner and Trials.

          • Apparently RNG even in scoring system is "content" now

          • The scoring system wasn't competitive to begin with. Max score on salt mines is easy. The point of the event was to boost sales of a rewards pass without making seasonal content to go with it.

              • They exists. Just not in house. They outsource it and it shows by said lack of assured quality.
