I mostly agree. Connection based matchmaking allows randomization and it's the best way to do things for regular pvp modes (skill based should remain for IB, Trials and other special pvp events). Connection based allows you to sometimes be matched vs better players and sometimes vs weaker players. Making it random is fair for everyone.


Agreed. Just playing all of three games today, all of them felt like I was trying to win a freaking tournament or something.

Don't get me wrong, I love competitive play, but when I am playing every single game, needing to be on the top of my game to even succeed, it gets exhausting.

e/ Especially when I am already mentally exhausted from other things.. I go on a game to unwind -- can't do that with Destiny anymore.

These are my exact sentiments when it comes to skill based matchmaking.

Plenty of other things I wish the would implement to make the experience more fun.

If I had a top three other than connection based matchmaking it would be, faster ttk on primary weapons, permanent no fireteam playlists (not only once per month, if that, which it currently has been), no heavy ammo in pvp

Agree x3, especially about the faster ttk primaries

Yeah, seriously.. The weapons in Destiny are pretty much in a "every is bad and nothing is good" state right now. :(

That's what I've read on the DTG reddit, not sure, though. Rumors saying it will be released after the MLG tourny, some rumors say we'll get it at reset. Who knows.. Would definitely love to get them tomorrow, though. Very eager to partake in some scrim matches. :P

How about no HUD Hide & Seek on First Light? :D Read that idea on Reddit haha, I think it's brilliant.

More-so excited for a wider area for deliberate practice. Every day before I jump into PvP, I like to mess around in Patrol and practice my chain slides, Warlock skate, shotty-shadestep combos, etc. With private matches, I'd just be able to go onto a map I am familiar with and do all the same things but actually in the environment I'll be in for PvP. Very excited. :)
