Heyo,
Long time halo player turned destiny lover. I'm a big fan of the PvP aspect of this game and had a few questions in regards to what a majority of competitive players and myself discuss on the reg.
First off, will there be ranks? I'm pretty excited for a more competitive gametype such as inferno and I think an additional ranking system would further enhance player enjoyment. I mean more competitive players are going to be drawn to the inferno gametype right? I would imagine so. So why not add a ranking system for players to match equally skilled players, provide incentive for the more competitive players, and you could reward shaders / ships / emblems for reaching different levels of rank.
In addition to this, and what I think really needs to be implemented, are parties matching parties of equal size. The amount of games I've played with a group of 6 against another group of 6 is quite dismal, but when it does happen it's exhilarating and honestly the most fun I have in PvP given each team is working together and implementing strategy. Full parties matching a group of single players is neither fun for the party of 6 or the 6 parties of 1. The games becomes a landslide, players quit, new players join when the game is 15,000 to 5,000, etc. No one enjoys that.
Custom games would be great as well. Any who, keep up the good work and I hope these changes can be implemented in the near future.
Cheers,
Matt
