Checkmate Shouldn’t Ever Be Quickplay
To start - I like checkmate as its own playlist (my friends don’t). I think CM could work for comp/trials. Quickplay? Nope. You’ve essentially taken all the fun things about Destiny PvP and erased them. Ability builds are useless now, which means builds are shifting to neutral game perks/exotics.
Were abilities a little strong before? Sure, but it’s Quickplay. It’s fun. It’s a space magic shooter game, but you’ve taken away the magic part. Now it’s just a space team-shot simulator (yawn) overrun by Thorn noises.
Sadly, my friends and I (all PvP mains) are gonna sit D2 out for a while, specifically due to this new Checkmate Quickplay. Our biggest dilemma is finding another game to play. D2 was THE GAME for us - years and years of D2. Hundreds of dollars, thousands of hours. Not sure where to go now, but we’re awaiting the return of fun PvP.
PS - Video games should be fun. Please bring back some other fun game modes, like CTF, King of the Hill, etc. Scorched and Mayhem are k/d destroying dumpster fires.
PSS - Please start including useful stats at the end of crucible games. Kills, assists, precision, supers, melee kills, grenade kills, kd, kad, etc. Show us who won big medals and how many. You have the data, just show it on the screen. An easy suggestion, but people would appreciate it.

I have near 400,000 pvp kills in destiny 2. Joe blackburn said in a video 2 days ago that they want to deliver for pvp players. Then the season launches and they remove a staple from the series, a core mode dude- 10 years old. A decade. None of my clan or friend list like it either. Further to this they removed rift in comp and added an abomination of a mode that spawns heavy every 60 seconds and is like a worse version of what we had almost 5 years ago. Countdown rush is as far from competitive as you can be. It should have zero heavy ammo. It shouldnt have respawns. It shouldnt even be in the game if im being real. Talk about an identity crisis. They take a mode that is akin to csgo and search and destroy. It was fairly sweaty with no rez and an obj. They make heavy ammo spawn more, introduce respawns…. IN COMP. Meanwhile in QP you have 2 nades a match. The pvp team are lost. Its simple: QP: 6v6 control with outlier matchmaking. Comp: survival 3v3 Take your sparrow control and meme modes and throw them into a 60 minute rotator like other games have done for years. And dont get me started on the lacklustre pve content we have been force fed since shadowkeep. If they dont change things massively, destiny is going to die sooner than later, honestly. What worries me is the people who took out control 6v6 for checkmate are still making decisions for the short future this game has left
