Not my video, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=b13vuS7xrlo its being posted everywhere. As if this is cheating.
It's not. This is exactly what a potential battle against 2 very good teams would like like. Nova bombs and golden guns popping bubbles while strikers and blade dancers get in to some cqc and all the whole defender titans spawning bubbles.
Is this match 1 sided? Absolutely but because thier opponents are completely unprepared, not working together, not feeding each other orbs, they just can't hang.
So mad props to the guys that figured this out. Maybe, just maybe there will be some teamwork going on now in pvp a bit. When I see an enemy super I always super if I can use mine to shut theirs down.
If you think this is cheating or an exploit you are everything that is wrong with this community and probably suck or have no friends to do this with.
I cant wait to do this and to hopefully run into it so I can record some epic super battles.
Edit**
Deej is "looking into this" and if you agree that this should at least ride out to see how it's used in the future, at least for a short time, bump this thread.
Edit 2**
If you think this is cheating all I can say is listen to the first 20 seconds of this video https://m.youtube.com/?#/watch?v=urq9Lef_3T4
Edit 3**
Literally more than a dozen counters to this strat are listed below by random forumers. This is not hard to beat and takes 2 coordinated supers. Keeping it down takes more teamwork and without the lead this strat is useless. Get gud kids.
Edit 4**
Only way to nerf this is to nerf the titan in pvp. Let's not go there.
Edit5**
Apparently sunsingers feel left out of this strategy. If it helps create balance and define job roles simply let the sunsinger be the orb spawner and change the titan perk to generate orbs from kills inside the bubble vs just taking damage from the bubble.
Credit to whoever gave me that idea I'll find your name in a bit or pvt message me my bad
Edit**6
I heard they found a change, can anyone confirm ?

Enjoy

Of course deej wouldn't bother commenting on any of my threads after the first one he commented it on lol Deej, what do you think about 2 teams of equal skill trying to gain this setup? We've listed ways to counter it. Why not give us time to actually try them ?
-
Striker Titan + Death From Above + Unstoppable = A Shit Storm on Their Parade
-
DeeJ already said in another thread that this being looked at by the devs. Exact same video he saw as well. Sorry but Bungie is looking into this and could quite possibly Nerf this. They used alpha lupi
-
Its a cheese end of story
-
You're an absolute moron. I'd say less than 5% of people can form teams capable of doing this "infinte super" thing. Therefore, in what fantasy matchmaking land do you expect there to ever be an epic battle of TWO teams that do this? UNBALANCED is the only word that pops in my head. I can't begin to wrap my head around how dumb you are.
-
[b]People who don't think this is broken = morons[/b] That is all.
-
I want to try! but I dont play crucible much...
-
Two teams like this would be entertaining as hell to watch.
-
Personally if on the other team I would have just left lol. Not because it's cheating but I think the specials should be an enhancement not a gameplay style as this video shows. Constant supers is not what the devs intended, not hating but not the way I like my pvp either. I love the specials in pve but honestly wish there existed a lobby for guns only aka no specials
-
If those Warlocks synced up their nova bombs, these guys would have been gone. I love seeing teamwork in games its how they are supposed to be played. Now I want to see a team take out their strategy.
-
Teamwork............... four titans doing nothing while the hunters just sit in the bubbles with golden guns. Meanwhile the idiots on the other team keep walking into it. I dare them to actually roam the map.
-
Welp, guess I won't be playing crucible for a while, mostly cause I can't be bothered to coordinate a team nor do i want to be on the receiving end of this. Have fun tho, no seriously, I still think it's jolly that someone took the time to plan and coordinate this strategy. If you're gonna try this I recommend Crest of Alpha Lupi for max orbs, or Helm of St 14 for Titans in case someone actually decides to charge you.

Edited by Harket16: 2/3/2015 7:29:33 PMTo all people who think this is a fair/legit strategy, I guess you agree that spawn trapping is a legit strategy because muh teamwork.
-
Edited by Adanite: 2/3/2015 8:21:43 PMThat guy is awful at aiming....and he is running a Suros with maxed stability and still missing??? Second link
-
I'm surprised it took someone this long to post a video. We've been doing this for vog, Crota, and even used it in the crucible for laughs before. I've said many times before, you don't know the meaning of destiny op until get a bunch of defenders together
-
Haha yeah this awesome. It's most certainly not cheating, and most certainly not a problem with the whole thing. It's teamwork and a strategy! It's funny now a days that when someone thinks of a good strategy, it's considered cheating. Like how stupid can you be? Anyhow, if there were two teams like that clashing, both having good teamwork and a Strategy, God...that would be an amazing match.
-
the problem is with how the game sets up matches, if you want to use this strategy against another 6 man fireteam with mics....fine go right ahead. However, you never get battles like that and you're going to be running this strategy against a random 6 man team with no mics and piss the hell out of them. If this catches on, it will force people out of PvP which is bad for the game.
-
That was great ya it was a little one sided but still its not a glitch or anything bad its a legit strategy and with every strategy it has a weakness you just need to find it. In all honesty if this gets patched nerfed or removed in anyway bungie will have pissed me off for the first time. Im sure other people have done this but no one has posted it till now
-
Edited by ShadowSpear: 2/3/2015 7:55:01 PMThat was pretty awesome.. I think another firestorm working together could stop that. Would be a very interesting game to watch against an equal team. A couple blade dancers with invisibility could probably do some dmg once the titans are targeted the rest of the team comes in to help clean up. Off the top of my head could work.
-
A Voidwalker with the DoT perk on his super would at least force them all out of the bubbles
-
The other team had two flags while these guys didn't even bother recapturing their flag. So the other team could have won if they had sat back instead of feeding these guys kills.
-
Yes this is teamwork, but that fact that this is even possible was clearly an oversight by Bungie. This would not even be fun and would make many players rage quit and never play again. It should not be possible to keep your super up 100% of the time, that is why they are supers and they are all incredibly powerful. Anyone with the slightest amount of common sense would be able to figure this out.
-
Exactly. It's like watching a professional basketball team showing up to a pick up game and destroying people. It's not cheating or anything idiots are saying, it's just a team of 6 really good players who clearly play together all the time against 6 random players who aren't anywhere near their level either individually or as a team.
-
Anyone thinking that it would still be good if you could do this when the oasis or whatever the next pvp thing is called is coming out is just plain stupid. To the OPs edit 3. Their is no reliable way to counter this without taking a golden gun to the face before you get pretty much any of the so called "counters" off.
-
Nice.
