Is there any MP pvp game that’s tried being smart enough to sense when a team is spawn trapped and just soft reset the match by nuking everyone without penalty to score?

scrim maps are jav endless burnout cliffs

I don't think there's any other great maps outside of that. retribution before they made it a full ring was my favorite

edit: have they clarified what the armor 1.0 stats will be in shadowkeep? will it be tier 3 for all six stats?

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.

Vostok, midtown, and gamblers ruin can all be removed from the game with absolutely zero negative impact

They should absolutely remove that one fuckass map that makes you basically lose the match if you get spawned at the A cap point.

"getting spawn trapped" is seen as an unavoidable random occurrence in the low Elo brackets, but it's a very intentional aspect of the game, same as popping a shutdown super, or using a grenade to deny an area, or winning a 1v1

This proposed idea is not only abusable (allow spawn trap when you're losing to avoid a loss penalty) but mostly misses the point of what map control is.

Probably would be well received in the veggie tier tho

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.

Equinox is a gold medal factory. It's a stupid rear end map though

There's currently like 24 or 25 Destiny 2 PVP maps, off the top of my head:

poo poo and should be removed:
Vostok
Eternity
Midtown
Equinox
Firebase Echo
Citadel
Solitude

Good:
Retribution
Burnout
Javelin
Endless Farm
Dead Cliffs
Meltdown

Should be brought back: Firebase Delphi, Twilight gap, Asylum, Sector 618

The ones that should be removed are always boring, lovely affairs that encourage way too much camping and lameness. The games better when its faster.

Rusted Lands is overrated and should be the last of the "good" maps they bring back.

I just watched a ten minute video of Sector 618 and I'd swear I never once saw that map. Looks cool though.

Also a painful moment in the footage where the player just barely missed a platform jump but couldn't clamber, heeheeee

I'd play some other stuff but most of my pvp at the end was Rift, and for a long while.

I would harass travel lanes and be a bitch as my bae way of living but the beauty of Rift is that it accepted all types of roles as viable options, from bullying spawn or lanes, fighting on the spark, running, defending, pushing forward, staying back... and because I could stop and smoke weed then go hard every other minute and not mess up anything was my favorite. No other game type is so friendly to 420 lone wolves who want to contribute in their own rude ways while giving no darns about wins or losses.

I miss you every day, Rift. Your tits were so big and beautiful and you being gone is like a unicorn being murdered. There was once magic in this place but now there is none, because them big milkies gone bye-bye. I'm mad and I want revenge for your death. Wait for me in Hell.

Game recognise game.

Sector always has a place in my heart because I got a real nice clip of shutting down 3 supers in 3 shots with a thousand yard stare and it was made for using tlw.

Extremely fun map for those stupid games where you end up with like 40 kills but still a 2.0kd.

I have a not at all impressive but very fun Sector 618 match saved that was 32 kills with Khvostov and a Thesan vooper. Such good times.

Remember Thesan FR4, y'all?
