I never thought an activity would make me want to [b]cut the webbings of my toes with copier paper[/b], and yet, here is [i]Rift on [b]Cathedral of Dusk[/b][/i] proving me wrong.
I...I even played it solo. [i]Once.[/i] Because that's all it took to turn my frown [b][i]further[/i][/b] down, then put it through the [b]SRL[/b] fans, deform its spire and gift it to the Architects.
Months ago, when [b]Clash[/b] was the IB activity, I thought to myself: [quote]Cool! I hope they never have Rift as Iron Banner, though. Pshh, why would they even, that wouldn't make sense. I've seen Icebreaker nerfs that make more sense than that.[/quote]Well, cover me in honey and call me Sally, [b][i]IT'S RIFT!![/i][/b] Which isn't a [b][i]bad[/i][/b] thing, unless winning is your objective. To further rub salt into my oriface, [b][i]Cathedral of Dusk.[/i][/b] <--- That sentence doesn't even finish properly, nor does it need to. Simply; [i]because Cathedral of Dusk.[/i]
With the cherry on the -!wecantevencensorthisword-! cake, I now have to [b]LFG[/b] for Iron Banner. [b][i]FOR IRON BANNER.[/i][/b] I have 10 pages of friends I've acquired over Y1 of Destiny. Guess how many were online?
[spoiler]2.[/spoiler][spoiler]2 people, not two pages.[/spoiler]
[b][i]So,[/i][/b] LFG it is. LFG isn't ready for me.
My witty overly-suggestive banter mixed with my [b][i]very[/i][/b] inconsistent [b]1.0 K/D[/b] mixed with the sporadic loud shrieking that living with a cat and a woman entails tends to put people off. Or, at least confuse them.
So, [b][i]*raises glass*[/i][/b] this one's to you, [i]Cathedral of Dusk.[/i] May your match timers run out, and your participants have John Cena legs.

This map actually has respawn points that Bungie can't get wrong. All the other maps seem to spawn you in a dumb spot.

It takes a few seconds to get from either spawn to the Spark. It's not hard.
-
I call it the 5K map, since you have to run a 5K just to get back to the middle after respawning.
-
Yeah, I don't care for that map, either, or many of the maps in y2. I'm pretty sure it's because y2 maps are glorified straight lines from spawn points to the middle of the map, so every spawn is just, "I'ma run forward and shoot!"
-
Had this garbage map 5 out my first 15 IB Rift matches. I cant believe Bungie is so lazy that they are using the exact same map rotation as last IB... [spoiler]actually, i can believe it.[/spoiler]
-
I -blam!-ing hate cathedral of dusk, it rolls way to many times, remove it from rift completely!!!
-
Well, hi Sally!
-
-blam!- that map. Every time I get that map I am against a team of 5 or 6 and they are all hunters and one titan.. Know how awesome their nades are? They throw a nade, you kill them, their nade sticks around for 20 seconds, you die. I throw a nade, I die, the piece of shit fizzles out. Thanks bungie for -blam!-ing over warlocks in year two. Those classes have evade, I am stuck floating like princess peach. If I switch to blink, I get shot by the amazingly quick 1k aim assist mid blink..

What about this https://youtu.be/XZ1iBKr85qs
-
I get this map all the time
-
I only have 4 pages, but it still freaked me out a little when I looked and only saw 2 people on.
-
Git gud
-
It's just awful
-
If you were on ps4 I would play with you :(
-
am pretty good on rift, but 1) there's not enough maps 2) playing solo is a nightmare 3) snipers sit back and hardscope the spark, then only attack when they have heavy machine gun best way to fix it, 3 special and 1 heavy per game. and kick anyone redbarring...... TRYING TO KILL A LAGGY SPARK RUNNER IS IMPOSSIBLE.. But honestly with 2 friend's on we usually dominate rift, you just need distractions when trying to slam dunk. But going solo means unless someone is clued up and a good shooter you have no chance, even against ramdoms.. amen

ive seen a lot of people saying on here they don't like this map. I think its pretty fun. also the sniper/ camping spots are all the same and predictable, kind of makes it easy when you have tripmines
-
I made a sandwich and beat off in the time it took me to get from spawn to the rift
-
There could not be a worse map for rift.
-
Yeah I usually have full fireteams of 6 for IB. Now, I'm lucky to have one page of friends on. And half of those "friends" I've played with like once. Played 5 matches of this sadness that is IB and thank the high heavens I never got Cathedral of Dusk. But oh I got Sector 618 or whatever the frick it is 3 times. I absolutely cannot stand that map. In the end, playing with myself and one other person, we got put into 3 games in progress, got mercy ruled and didn't win a single match. Those 5 medallions will sit in my inventory until next IB. Friggin scout rifle isn't even worth it at this point.
-
Actually I like it a lot as a runner....when I have the spark there's so many corners and turns I can use to juke the enemy team pursuing me
-
-
I used to hate this map, but now having experienced so much torturous rift gameplay, I now realize this is the only rift map where I feel reasonably confident that I can re-spawn and not get immediately gunned down by a terminus MG.
-
I went 23-5 in zone control once, 5 captures, not too bad of a map, especially considering I was using a shotgun and not a sniper
-
I like this map... I must be the only one. Played it three times yesterday (in 19 games) and I ignited the rift 4 or 5 times and won each game. Just saying like. Great post though. Cheers Sally
