The rank up and access of guns and gear shits on Gambit and IB easily. Saladin needs Osiris's vendor yesterday. Crazy too this is how it used to be back in D1 with vendors.
I think I gotta wait for weekly reset though. Or just reset my card again. I dunno, the card thing just wooshes me in general.
Can't stop getting people who just refuse to even consider that they could not just go die in the first 5 seconds of a round.
Just played a hacker again. I dunno dawg, this is bad. Like it just coasts on giving out shit but it's still horrible on the MM.

By Daz Go To PostNot as high as I thought.gonna be the highest its ever been on D2. trails ain't even closed for the week yet either.
I have complicated feelings about it all at this juncture. Like yay loot but it reminds me far too much of other meat grinder shit that I stopped engaging with in the past before.
I actually think for me it's that your time is still being rewarded somewhat.
I can get my butt kicked while trying out different builds.

i don't even remember the last time i used shinobu's vow in pvp
Wish I had those games. Mine were all dudes already geared out, flawless, unbroken stacks from game 1. The times I did win some of my own team mates were side eyes too.

The times I did win some of my own team mates were side eyes too.i mean, it doesn't really matter lol. if you're getting rewarded all the same, why even bother trying to grit teeth solo carry against the sweat stack?
its been cool to try new shit and maybe cheese a round with something you've always thought to try. after the 7 win mark i couldn't give a single fuck against a stompee hunter team. i actually used a witherhoard on purpose for the first time in months
you don't even get to chill like this in the comp playlist
I mean it matters if I can't even flesh out rounds and get completely stomped out. I'd steal one here and there but damn. Might fuck with DMT again. Vigi goes work also especially if I'm last one left. Looked at my W to Ls yesterday and just got mad again.

Looked at my W to Ls yesterday and just got mad again.i think i lost nearly 10 straight matches yesterday at one point. if it was comp, i'd be sick.
instead i got free shit and got to meme it up and hold dance parties while using cheese builds to surprising effect. that's kinda what trials needs to be when playing solo imo
the biggest thing trials has to put next is stuff to discourage solos from quitting so quick similar to what gambit has. also there needs to be an option to vote-in and stick with the other solos on your team if you win.
There's three things that would make solo queueing less shit. Quitting penalties, options to stick with solid team mates and all of the game could use a kind of review system, it could even be positive only to avoid abuse, like I wanna give Locks who put down rifts 5/5 every time because so many don't and I'm just like "why are you here?" I had a guy twice just rolling around with a sweet business and getting merc'd and I was like "can I just not do this again?" Then I had to.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostAren't you on a lock? Do arc buddy.As my main, but I play all 3.
Locks can infuriating - faced up against a warlock 3 stack holding hands, all usubg arc buddies and No time to explain.
5 nil wipe, don't think I got a single kill.
Fuck arc buddies.
Oh also, shatter diving hunters are going to hell.
By Laboured Go To Posti love it lol
Yall got any time to go flawless on Monday? Out of town but might be back Sunday.
Might take a few resets but we'll surely get it done.
Was having a blast with bottom tree arc hunter last weekend with the bouncy grenade gauntlets and a grenade launcher + No Time to Explain pulse. Get one burst on someone and just lob a nade and its a wrap. Was running a lot of grenade boosting mods too.
Two hunters with that would be extremely terrifying. Wondering I should swap my grenade launcher for a Jotuun or something. Just something that can do work against peekers and break up team shooters.

Lol, the Scepter catalyst looks pretty OP
Could see myself using it with Behemoth or top tree void hunter--two of the worst supers in the game

All these upgrades to various things and matchmaking still a sad sack of shit, especially IB. First game in vac ban players outta China lol. Making me play laggy ass macroing 1329s in others. Bungie can fuck off. This is why I'm taking longer breaks. This is only 3 games in mind you. Already over it. Not even getting proper pinnies too, adding insult to injury.
Hunters are such dicks.
If shatterdive were a warlock ability, they would have been nerfed into the fucking ground.

Biggest dicks are Titans with Feedback Fence or Dunemarchers who hit me 30 secs late through walls from fights I have nothing to do with and on spawn.
The story this season is incredible
By Daz Go To PostHunters are such dicks.If Warlocks were actually in tune with their own scumbaggery potential, they'd put up stasis turrets at every opportunity

lol
Unmanned damage and slow that targets opposing players. Luckily warlocks don't even know how good that is or better placement for it in my games.

By Daz Go To PostTurrets are more of a PVE clutch ability, no?the stasis turret is problematic af. arc souls never make you choose what to shoot at or fuck up your ability to shoot/move.
honestly, the community as a whole only seems to buck at the most ezpz braindead strats being strong. a stasis turret will fuck up an entire area. one of the most underutilized strong neutral options in the game
By i can get you a toe Go To Postloli don't even think it shows up on radar now that i think about it. and yeah, it forces you to choose between shooting the turret or the player - and its a trick question because the right answer is to fucking leave and find a better place to fight lol.

its not a hard counter to shotguns or grouping up like shatterdive so its barely discussed anywhere. and it actually requires solid placement and forethought. but a stasis turret can shutdown an entire portion of a map better than your average revenant super if played right....
That plus that the range, duration and aim on that super and I'm shocked I still see as many flame locks as I do compared to the stasis class.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostThat plus that the range, duration and aim on that super and I'm shocked I still see as many flame locks as I do compared to the stasis class.even bottom tree dawn is bitch to fight. they go behind a corner and phoenix dive between each others rifts and live forever lol
and your teammate is burning? gg rip everyone within 10 ft
no exotic needed btw. but its obvious why so many crutched off chaos reach. most have no idea what to do between supers and special ammo in pvp
I haven't seen so much blatant hacking in some time outside of Trials I have to wonder why I even had to install a program that just makes my game crash and freeze.
there's more and more talk about the shadow nerfs to slide and some other movement options and i'm kinda like...... good?
i dunno. i like the movement skill gap and all that, but the scrim pc crowd has definitely turned this shit into Gunz online in a lot of ways. high end cod will always look like cod, high end halo = halo. high end apex? it flirted with various forms of fukkery and they always get patted down a bit not long afterwards.
kinda anticipating a stompee nerf along with the other obvious things in the december patch. feel kinda mixed about it

By Daz Go To PostSliding should have never been as effective as it is.sliding by itself is fine, but the amount of things that occur when just doing it is kinda absurd at this point. im not mad at slide as a movement option and honestly hitting the perfect angle on people should get you every advantage that it does. if someone slides onto a corner, shoots, then dodges immediately after, that's cool in my book. there's plenty of skill to it. its everything else that's been stacked on top of that that creates issues
It's got no skill, no drawbacks.
i think there's plenty of value in the action by itself - but you shouldn't be able to reload weapons, turn your rapid fire weapon into a laser, deflect shots and supers, buffer melee abilities during it, flick and turn your character model into an animorphs cover, shatter crystals (and get all the fukkery from rime overshields wtf is that still in the game), slide 180 using essentially zero start up momentum, get a damage buff for picking up random shit on the ground, etc while doing it imo
if someone cuts an angle on you and your pants are down, i think its fair you hold that. if you catch someone in the open and they move backwards, shrink their profile, and literally two tap you with bullets from where there ass should be - that's a problem.
my biggest annoyance has been offensive sliding that ain't close range shotgun, there's no way someone sliding from 50 yards away should be dome tapping me that hard
You instantly shrink your hitbox,
reduce the distance between you and your opponent massively
somehow dont have to aim - if using shotgun.
no penalty all with 2 button presses.

By Daz Go To PostYou instantly shrink your hitbox,standard shotguns are kinda okay rn imo. by far the biggest reason so much melee space has opened up this season. pellet shotguns are pretty reeled in... (slugs tho lmao)

they're no longer the one size fits all, good with everything, solution to anything that can happen within 10m.
im cool with someone running straight and sliding. everyone should be. its when you *don't* move straight and slide that's the problem. going from a near standstill to sliding in any direction with less than a second of start up, and getting all of the bonuses that come with that through your build, is what is under the microscope more or less.
if someone cuts a corner on you, slides in underneath where you're pre-aiming, tests your TTK and sends you to a respawn screen then ggs he earned that shit tbh. being a shotgun warrior with a positive k/da is harder than it looks and positioning still dominates just about everything in destiny despite all the abilities and shenanigans.
By i can get you a toe Go To Postmy biggest annoyance has been offensive sliding that ain't close range shotgun, there's no way someone sliding from 50 yards away should be dome tapping me that hardi'd love to see a better indicator of who has damage perks up. there's a way to tell if someone has a super available or overshield, but with weapons you're just left to eyeball the shimmer of their weapon's frame. nothing on the nameplate really
way too often i find out that someone has rampage/kill clip/CWL after I've been sawed in half
Yeah the way I play if I let someone in close that's my fuck up but someone who has a long range pulse with rampage up or No Time to Explain's portal just sliding in and wrecking me from some peakboo shit all the way across the map, ugh. Also range on handcannons on PC is still ridiculous imo but there's bigger issues so it doesn't get brought up.
