We were discussing this in the Boat Drivin' Space Moanas discord, but the 1.1.4 update is looking incredibly lit. Verticality, verticality, verticality, which means PC will be tons'o'fun. The loving Rattler of all guns is showcased as slaughtering people in this video.

@moist or really anyone who likes hand cannons, they specifically talk about using The Old Fashioned in-air with much greater accuracy. Apparently "in-air accuracy" works by means of a %debuff to your accuracy when your boots are not touching ground.

My schedule for March 27:

Change up some weapons
Play a couple public events and say, "These changes feel pretty good, good job Bungie"
Maybe play Nightfall and not get any of the new unique loot
Not play IB because even with sandbox/6v6 the rewards are still cosmetic and/or boring
Go back to playing anything else until the next expansion

lol those huge dumb idiot babies. We really do only get 6v6 once every 3 weeks!

Which is more likely:

- Stubborn fucks won't let us have more than a tiny dribble of what we want

- Their in-house testing has revealed that 6v6 is actually terrible so they don't want to make it much of a thing


WHOA poo poo, uh, remember that whole "March 27 = Iron Banner 6v6" thing? Turns out they meant, March 27 = the patch that will allow for a future 6v6 Iron Banner. God dammit! The first IB 6v6 will be April 10.

But seriously what the gently caress, that's two 6v6 fakeouts in a row. I'm starting to think they're pushing it back for Reasons and making it seem like it was always the plan.

...they're still launching 6v6? I'm not sure I understand your use of, "Fakeout" here.

I'm still expecting 8v8 to drop at some point, just because it doesn't make sense to tease a tank in the storyline without putting it in a later combined arms mode.

It all started with the road map. Iron Banner 6v6 was under a column with a "March 27" header, as shown below



Relevant contents circled, underlined and arrow'd

That's the most recent and grievous of fakeouts. But they got me with their March 1st blog post (https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46670)) which went a little something like this:

Hey kids do ya like.. IRON BANNER SIX VERSUS SIX?!

Well, here's exactly how it works.

Oh, and one more thing... How would you feel about IRON BANNER starting next goddamn week, YEEEAHHH!!!*















*Next week is Iron Banner 4v4. The previously mentioned Iron Banner 6v6 is a part of Patch 1.1.4, which launches before the end of the month

Mar 27: Rumble

Here, let me fix the image I pasted above so you can see what I mean better, since I got it straight from today's update:

https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/46696


More context definitely reveals where you're getting confused tho. They wrote, "Rumble" in the slot where we expect IB to show up (March 27th), even though the graphic clearly shows IB launching then (as well?):

quote:

Starting March 27, the Weekly Crucible Playlist will become available to all. This playlist will contain Rumble, Mayhem, and 6v6 Iron Banner to start. Here’s a calendar for when you can expect these game modes to appear through the week of May 1.

Mar 27: Rumble
Apr 3: Mayhem
Apr 10: Iron Banner
Apr 17: Rumble
Apr 24: Mayhem
May 1: Iron Banner

I'm gonna guess:

1) I don't think that means IB will be Rumble, maybe it'll just be alongside it to get people to try different new PVP poo poo
2) 6v6 IN GENERAL will be referred to as, "Iron Banner" going forward, because it sounds like that's how they've built it. I'm pretty sure they called it a, "Classic game style" in some presser once upon a blue moon ago.
3) If that's the case I may revise my BTB vehicle-enabled 8v8 guess pessimistically to the expansion after this upcoming one. It would be characteristic of Bungie's release schedule and overall demeanor to wait like six months to Datamine 6v6 fully before they drop another bigger something that would be more fun. :v:

Dude, wordswordswords. You're missing the point. Here's the point - They clearly planned on 6v6 on March 27th and then scrapped it/pushed it back for some reason.

That image implied (still implies! Note that "Iron Banner" isn't included in the line item below with "Weekly Crucible Playlist: Rumble/Mayhem"!) that March 27 was Iron Banner 6v6

They obviously had to ditch their plans for 6v6 on March 27th, and now they're including it in Weekly Crucible Playlist (previously defined as Rumble/Mayhem, now defined as Rumble/Mayhem/Iron Banner) and bumping it to the back of the line.

There's absolutely no way you (waffle house) were expecting 6v6 on anything other than March 27th, lmao

So what you're saying here is that you fully expect 6v6 IB to not drop on March 27th?
