I never played a more boring, frustrating, grindy, and more bullshit destiny event than this iron banner.
1. Cheating huntards spanning bows
2. Rank five with one shitty sidearm drop
3. Horrible shit lag
4. Forced to grind, and get dropped mid match on losing teams to get the pulse rifle
5. Lost 8 matches in a row, absolutely shit. Finally when we were winning a match my game froze for the first time ever.
6. It was so depressing I just started to leave matches midgame when we were down a few thousand points as I already had five medallions.
Never again!!

Edited by NEONateZERO: 1/1/2016 7:51:59 PMHonestly for me, the most wank part about IB now is that it's no longer about level, but light. I need the most -blam!-ing top notch gear that isn't even accessible through ways that aren't out of luck to be able to fight. Edit: Oh and everyone is on third world connections. Edit 2: DUNGEON IS ALSO A VERY SHIT MAP WHEN RUNNING SOLO.

Iron Banner was like an awful, horrible, second job. Bungie has thousands of poor players, slumped over there desk with drool pooling down there chin, whimpering "I can't take this anymore, but I need the rifle that they will probably nerf next week". I wonder how many innocent iron banner players died in real life from the torture it was trying to get to R5. #wewillneverforget

If you're rank 5, why do you care if you lose? You get drops if you're on the losing team and you no longer need the rep.
-
I just gate gating joined into 3 losing games....in a row.
-
It doesnt even matter if you are a good pvper or not. No one can win against lag. And lag is the only thing you are fighting against really.

I am done with IB. If I don't get any help next week with Alal-Hul exotic sword quest. mission I am done with Destiny

I found this one much less annoying than before in terms of ranking up, although very little incentive for doing so. Etheric light in the previous IBs meant it was worthwhile for non PoE regulars, but all I got this time was the class armour and the pulse rifle, both of which I bought.

I loved how they said buying the gear from Salad Bar was only a last resort. What do they consider a last resort? You'd have to play hundreds of shit games with cheating huntards and laggy servers. What a broken mess.

Edited by RAcast: 10/18/2015 8:31:18 PMI didn't even bother this time. Literally nothing that made it worth doing IMO. As for the pulse rifles? I'll stick w/ hacksaw, red death and Juju. Why play shit you don't even like if the rewards are meager at best?
-
Sounds like a personal problem.

9 losses in a row for me... just about cracked my controller in my hands when I saw another message between games stating that it was gonna change up the teams for better matchmaking. No your not you crappy coding. Not with that loss streak stating otherwise. As well as just about reaching rank 5 and in all my games I've only seen about 4 IB reward items. One of them being my Titan Mark which was under level and all I've gotten. Just a few more days till Halo 5... just a few more days...

Yeah it's pretty bad. People are teleporting with green bar

Iron banner 2.0. #NEVER FORGET

Free bump for you m8.

This months IB was a crapfest. The pulse was worth it.

Bump! I can't be the only one who thought this was awful.
