At this point there is no reason to play pvp. The fact that we are at this stage on the crucible where the flow of the game has stopped with the sitting in the back Meta and the bad sandbox/maps. For a game that wants to keep player count steady it simply fails. I love this game and I wish it was better but we know at this point there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Is been down hill since the 2.0 subclass changes, no identity. I take breaks from this game but i get punish from it. This game punishes players for taking a break and it doesn't reward players for staying on it either.
Back to the crucible and the terrible experience that has become. Smoke and ice spears. Clones and pulses. Heavy pulses should get their intrinsic perk removed. Clearly the previous nerfs have not hit the mark.
in comp heavy needs to be removed completely. Comp should be barebones and all about positioning, cool-down management and gun skill. Heavy is cheesy and destroys all of those aspects. Since comp relaunch we have been asking for heavy to not be part of comp. The point system in comp sucks and needs to be looked at.
Even if they commit and start changing things now in pvp, its already to late.

Edited by ADONAI WARRIOR: 11/21/2024 12:34:49 AMI get what you are saying and agree with most of it. I think a big contributing factor is the toxicity of the community. I have found that individuals in Comp don’t want to work together…they want to be the star of the team regardless of whether or not they have the skills to be such. They do not get the Res…they cheat their teammates out of the heavy ammo, and they consistently use their teammates as bait for the opposing team in order to get clean up kills. Another issue is console crossplay in PvP. This should be eliminated. Xbox has a speed advantage over PS. I consistently loose 1v1 duels due to this. And before our lovey keyboard warriors chime in with the tired “get guud”, it isn’t a skill thing…it’s a hardware thing. And the matchmaking is off balanced in trying to rank up in the Gold and higher levels of Comp. Going up against ridiculous to impossible odds is not fun. It is anything else but. All in all, PvP isn’t fun anymore. It feels like a job now.

Disagree with most of this… space magic is the games identity… think you may need to play a non space magic game

Player count is low. Prismatic has ruined PvP. Double pulse meta was the icing on the cake. Been playing cod recently, haven't touched destiny in almost 2 weeks and I don't miss it.

Best meta was Not Forgotten Dust Rock without mouse and keyboard Xbox players and Xim/Cronus users

You people are a joke. What you really want is to strap on a shotgun and run around the map with nobody to stop you. Or you want to rush into every engagement and come out victorious without ever trying to change anything up. "Hey, hand cannons are my favorite weapon! Make them the best, please!" Why all you snowflakes want every game to play the same is beyond me. You left those other games because you got bored, but now you're mad you have to learn a new way to play. I may not be good in pvp, but at least I change with the game.

Heavy spawns too often. It's wicked annoying

Every time the player pop gets a little blip it starts to feel like they give it all away.

Bungie turned into a Gatcha developer around 2019

I'd just like to walk round a corner without being smoked and frozen by a dodge.

The system was absolutely perfect. Opening weekend of Trials with cross play. Burnout with Messanger, card based matchmaking, no flawless pool, no solo duo trio queue, getting close to a million players in a weekend. Brilliant. And then Bungie -blam!- around. Then -blam!- around some more. Carried on and on and on. Until finally we have barely 70K players a weekend. I cannot stress enough how badly Bungie performed here. From a simple metric of player numbers. It is a disaster. And as usual when you try to please the casual player your game becomes less attractive to the engaged players. And the engaged players leave. Genuine game killer. This game is nothing without PvP. And sadly PvP has been mis managed into nearly a million people a weekend wanting to play Trials of Osiris to barely 70 thousand. Hate to see it.

Destiny as a whole is on life support anyway. When Marathon flops they'll make Destiny 3.
-
I just hit an opponent directly in the face with squall and the just walked away. This game is an absolute price a -blam!-

But…but….but we have a destiny strike team!!! Hahahablahaha

So what you’re saying is. Something keeps killing me and I can’t adjust my play. Need it or I’m unhappy. Gotcha.

Edited by nonchalantone: 11/19/2024 5:02:12 AMSo, because it's unpleasant for YOU, it's unplayable? I agree, it sucks. But this seems more about you than PvP. Your entire 3rd paragraph talks about things YOU want implemented. And this deems it unplayable? This is no slight against you at all guardian.

So.. literally stop playing it then 🤯
-
Yaddayadda I call bs
-
The people that need to get better at the game are the ones that have to cheat to win. Not the other way around
-
So you went into PVP and other players shot you and used abilities against you then? I can’t imagine.

I with the grandeur of a celestial being, descend upon the arena, not merely to partake in what lesser beings might call 'PvP,' but to unfurl the banners of my greatness and exhibit my unparalleled skills before the eyes of the unsuspecting, the unwashed, the random casuals who, through sheer luck or folly, find themselves on the same battlefield as a colossus like myself.

This is literally false

Play COD for PVP. There’s a reason it’s the all-time best FPS. It’s just more rewarding unless you are trying for specific loot.
-
What are people expecting? Bungie are not doing anything with PvP . Trials and comp are done , control now is the only mode left and everyone is in there . PvP really is a hat it is now and is fading out slowly like Destiny one . Make the most of it 🤷🏼♂️

Fun if played in 1-5 matches per dosage
