If you can't beat them...
... join them.
I accepted a fate last night, about our hate to love love to hate crackcocaine of a game. During some IB matches where I was having fun and wrecking house I found myself doing the one thing that gets a lot of complaints-
Team shooting.
I accepted that it was the whole point.
I spent eight years of my life drilling and training in the US Army Infantry. Any infantryman, whether Army, Marine, or SF of any branch, will tell you that deliberate and well executed small team tactics can dominate the battlefield.
With the guardians being in the Vanguard, and the Vanguard being the military arm of the City, and Shaxx being the trainer of said military, it makes absolute frustrating sense that team shoot is the way to go.
With that rationale, I guess I have no choice but to fall in.
Although still seeing and being able to wipe 3 or 4 of the team on your own is still awesome and satisfying.
You guys know if there is a Destiny Rehab?

7 RepliesWhy does getting shot by multiple guns (killing you faster) anger so many players? Should getting hit by more bullets kill you slower than less bullets? It's a team based game mode. Walk into a hail of bullets, expect to die faster. Teamshot is just an excuse similar to crying for a nerf on any gun that kills you 1v1.

Thought it was going to be about hunters going invis. I was wrong

In all honesty, teamshooting discourages individuality. Can’t tell who has thumbs and who doesn’t when every encounter involves one poor bastard against 3-4 Uriel’s Gift firing down one lane But if people like getting clean ups, that’s them... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Idk I don’t feel like I have to many problems on a 1v2 engagement. This whole meta has for sure forced us to be crafty to get the hero plays but every time you still have to work with your team

Team shooting is fine...problem is you can’t reliably kill 2 guardians even if you have the drop on them bc the ttk is so slow (yes, you get lucky every once in a while and someone loses their thumbs so it becomes possible)

Well the Vanguard and Shaxx are absolutely not anything like the military. I mean Ghosts and Guardians are finite. So what does the Vanguard do with weak newborn Guardians? Well they don’t give them good gear to stay alive, that’s for certain. After the defeat on the Moon Guardian numbers dwindled to the point where the City and Vanguard doubted their survival. Why don’t they help new Guardians? An excerpt from grimoire card Glimmer: Newborn Guardians often complain that they should be issued high-quality gear for free - are they not, after all, fighting for the future of the City? Unfortunately, this gear requires resources to manufacture. Guardians must bring in enough Glimmer and other staples, like spinmetal and relic iron, to keep the engine of the City's economy turning. If good times lead to a resource boom, that surplus may help mass-produce advanced gear. Oddly that mirrors the Sword Logic when you think about it.

IB has helped me adjust to this meta I feel. I am not a hard core D2 PvP player, wasn't in D1 either. Like you once I started moving with the team or flanking still with team shooting in mind, things improved. To be fair that's how I played Battlefield so it shouldn't have been to hard to adjust in D2.

if you can't beat em.... go back to destiny 1 crucible and realize how superior it is

1 ReplyI looove to flank with my Titan and arc smash team shotters. So many triples and team wipes. NOT recommended without a super ready.
