haveblue posted:Kill enemies to earn an orb, invade to take it to the other side, and dunk it in the bank to earn a point? Sure why not That sounds loving cool tbh. Orb gives you extra overshield, successful dunk spawns additional taken around enemy bank. If you're killed with the orb, enemy can pick it up and dunk it to poo poo extra taken to your side instead before orb despawns

I don't mind the changes. I'll spend half an.hour in the skill based match making and the next 12 month's in connection but yeah. Thanks bungie. Called that heavy change from a mile away and it's a good one. I don't mind solo playlist for comp but unless they've changed their recipe for match making (they havent). That just means carrying two thumbless players against 3 decent ones after the first few games. Splitting off control and making it sbmm is kind of bad but at least they're not removing all connection match making like they used to.

I think all the changes overall are going to be extremely positive. Supers and heavy are the two biggest problems in PVP and those are hopefully being addressed. 4v4 can go gently caress off forever, I'd prefer 3v3 Clash for the glory mode but with heavy and supers being toned down, Survival might be better. Heavy will either need to spawn really late into a round (like 30 seconds before time) in order to discourage the whole "get a couple kills and then bunker", or just need to be reserved to one round like Trials.

The fact that they went from limited communal heavy events to perpetual single person pulls was quite possibly the dumbest and most obviously loving bad decision in pvp history What competent team in D1 3v3 didn’t guard a single person pulling heavy and then protect him as he ran loving (30-50 feral) hog wild for the next 3-5 minutes?

Gloary based MM is loving dogshit. poo poo takes forever. On the plus side it does mean i can jump on Jobeys account, win 18 games of comp in a row making GBS threads on kids with wavesplitter and get him recluse in half an afternoon. Make games connection based only. Let the pieces fall as they may, because anyone could be playing on anyones account. And there is nothing they can do to stop it. Edit: Too many play lists. Cut down one or two. I like Comp being survival only. Countdown was rear end. 3v3 is.... meh. 4v4 survival was generally a good time, the only bad thing was super snowballs and they are addressing that separately. And yeah. Probably see a season built around Trails of Osiris coming back, like House of Wolves was. CheeseFactory fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Aug 17, 2019 |

Paracelsus posted:WIll be interesting to see what the Mountaintop quest looks like after the changes. Knowing their level of creativity, they're going to cut the number of double kills and calculated trajectory medals by 50% and call it good. Sounds like they're going to make the losses in comp less of a penalty too, but overall i wonder if they're ever going back to "Reach Fabled" vs "Accumulate 3500 glory" for their pinnacles.

They need more incentive to play competitive than just 1 gun. Matches should reward more material or reputation or something There has to be a trade off uf your sitting in orbit for 5 minutes looking to find a sweat match.

Im curious if they are gonna touch recluse. Dude made a dig about pvp pinnacles showing up in pve in his state of the game. Do New Light players get a shot at Recluse or is that tied to annual pass?

Recluse is like 49% of PvE kills or something?? Even with the 2100 Glory barrier. It needs a tweak! I hope it doesn't get one on account of it's fun, but it seems likely to happen.

They will almost certainly give recluce a trim down to something like killclip levels of power but with the added benifit of procing from primary wepons kills to keep it unique

Just drop the range to 20.  I guess that doesn't nerf it in pve at all but I don't give a gently caress who kills with what in pve.

That was what I was expecting before today, but with the changes they're making to comp and heavy drops, getting double kills and calculated trajectories is going to get way harder because of fewer targets and less heavy ammo.

xzzy posted:Just drop the range to 20. Most of the playerbase is in pve at any given moment so they are probably (and should be) concerned with a lack of weapon diversity there. Rumor is it’s also very prevalent in gambit where its pve goodness is essentially pvp goodness.

Yeah story missions as strikes is actually good because it means they can put effort into a story mission (which you usually see once to 3x ever) without it going to waste And more strikes in the Playlist means more nightfall exclusives and less chance of getting Corrupted

Does accumulating glory mean it’s just tracking how much you earn until you earn a specific amount, not having the amounts you lose from loses count against you? That seems much more doable than reaching fabled.

Yeah but if you remove them all you're only left with a few maps and the repetition is bad enough already. Not gonna complain about the likes of Midtown and Equinox getting scrapped but still.

Equinox good for reasons stated. Equinox also bad for how tiny it is and how one team can keep the other hosed into the spawns with incredible ease. I'd rather play on merely two great, full-sized D1 maps for an entire year than not. Remove all D2 maps, please.

Equinox is definitely the one that killers have the easiest time manipulating spawns in, in my experience. It's also the only place I've gotten a Ghost In The Night medal, so it's a tradeoff for me.
