life_source posted:Does anything in this game have SBMM? I am under the assumption that Survival is based on your rank and not SBMM. Survival and elimination are the SBMM playlists. Glory rank is not a factor per Bungie since many seasons ago. How they calculate skill and how strict/loose it is in favoring quick matchmaking is another issue that no one knows the answer to besides Bungie. Trials is card-based and does no lobby balancing. However it’s not strictly card based which is why sometimes you’ll lose your first match on a card (or less commonly on another random mid-card match) and the other team will go to the lighthouse. I think they try to prioritize quick matchmaking so you aren’t going to be at 3 wins playing another team also at 3 wins necessarily, and solo queue players also complicate things. In my experience there are “buckets” to trials where 1-3 are harder on average, 4-6 easier, 7 is a toss up. If you get to 3 wins on a mercy card it’s usually not worth resetting past that point. I can say after doing solo freelance to Legend rank in Survival this season, SBMM was not noticeable at all. They might have done a stronger reset of their internal skill measurement between seasons but pretty much every match involved one team being heavily favored. Anyways Survival is a bad game mode and they are redoing the whole competitive playlist after next season so maybe they will shed more light on their methods as we get closer. heated game moment fucked around with this message at 17:11 on Jul 6, 2022 |

I am super excited for this. Survival is boring and campy and brings out the worst of the Destiny sandbox. Showdown would be a great replacement for the mode itself, but there also needs to be more of a reason for people to enter the Glory Playlist, too, so I hope they're working on something on the reward side as well.

Put king of the hill and oddball into a competitive playlist. This makes no sense for the style of play that destiny has but they should do it anyways.

It’s in a pretty miserable spot right now and the Survival mode in particular is mega punishing to the team with the worst player. The other day one of my teammates died 17 times in a match (intentionally throwing). I’m only doing it to make my legend number go up on DTR and to stay fresh in 3s before Trials starts each season. Showdown + actual loot would own

I always thought an effortless carrot each season would have been letting you grab a Chain of Command (Adept) or Null Composure (Adept) etc etc as a reward for hitting 5,500 Glory There were so many easy or easy-seeming fixes they could toss at the Glory playlist that I assumed it was just going to be deleted one day

GoGoGadgetChris posted:I'm already a Disciple-Slayer so I don't think the final act of Bungie's Destiny is going to be hunting down and killing the Three Koopa Kids or whatnot. We'll probably hear about Disciples in the Lore but the final big baddies to be killed are Xivu Arath, The Witness, and Some No-Name Mook in Year 6's new raid  fellow Disciple-Slayer what was your experience with the triumphs? I got mine last season before the game went ez mode with restoration 🤣 jkjk congrats on the title!I found them all more annoying then difficult with the exception of the first master one. Coordinating juggling or murdering the Champs was very annoying until we swapped to a 1 runner strat. We had more than enough time to acquire the symbols and had the other 2 runners rotate to help whoever had Champs. We did the 2-2 strat. Cleared it second attempt and then 2x more for the adept weapons in 2 goes but oh my god was it rough trying it straight. Master Caretaker was actually surprisingly difficult. Running was by far the easiest role, add clear is hell and matador was just a constant above average level of action and I was very smooth brained at the end doing my stun, shoot beans, clear surronding ads, check champ, stun a million times till we got through. Very much felt like add clear make or break this and I leaned into void 3.0 invisible real heavy for it. Add clear looked.....easier when you have stasis warlocks but still v annoying. Master Exhibition took about 4ish continuous hours with a random LFG group since I didn't really want to ask the short list of goons that 1. I am friends enough with to ask for help and 2. Good enough to actually help, is very short and i didnt wanna frustrate those peoples. It was....not bad once we figured out some pathing stuff that I posted about here. I also organized the lfg fire team and didn't send invites to anyone with less than 10 VoW clears and 100+ various other raid clears. I figured the encounter and challege would be difficult enough and wanted to ensure a high floor in the group. We actually got all the way to the door on our like third try but didn't down the knight and than spent about 3.5 hours getting back. Master Rhulk.....lmao

Almost any emissive texture will become color cycling using Photo Finish. The Titan mark from VoG is great with it because the entire towel part is emissive.

The one-and-done Triumphs weren't too bad, although it's annoying that they don't give you a heads up if you failed them until the encounter is complete. We got the 1st encounter triumph done on our first try, luckily, which I hear is usually the most painful one and can even be kinda buddy on what it considers to be "Attacking the obelisk". Whew... Like you said, the weekly Challenges were definitely all over the place. I probably should've pursued a different strategy for 1st encounter because we did it with 3 runners and 3 defenders and it just required flawless, perfect execution by all fireteam members for every second of the whole encounter. Your way sounds a LOT m ore forgiving Caretaker is hilarious how different it is this season than last. Now that we know how to control the waves of adds, and now that soloing Overloads is a walk in the park, it's basically Free Adepts now. Last season?? Secant Filaments and Osteo Striga were the only loadout I could find that worked for add/champ control Exhibition definitely took me some time, but it's a pretty fun encounter so I didn't mind having to repeat it over and over compared to something like Caretaker or Acquisition which is just tedious to grind. I haven't tried Master Exhibition this season but I bet it's absolutely trivial with solar and void being as powerful as they are. Rhulk... ha ha ha... oh Rhulk. I don't mind that they made him the Free Parking space, and getting 3 adepts every time it comes around isn't bad! We've had a couple random bugs where we suddenly got Challenge Failed at the start of a new cycle, or just before running up to the DPS room. It's odd.. I actually really like the Adept weapons, even considering that the normal guns are craftable and get enhanced perks. Insidious - really shines with a Handling mod Deliverance - with Adept charge time is a crazy good counter to both rapid or precision fusions Submission - with a Range mod is super competitive Cataclysmic - who doesn't love Adept Biguns! ^burtle posted:are you guys gonna kiss It's considered unsafe to keep two Disciple-Slayers in the same room.

I’m fairly confident we’re sticking with this model until whatever comes after The Final Shape. You could say that Destiny has reached its final shape.
