Hey Bungie, bring back gambit

Why not? It'd take minimal work for you to bring gambit up to speed with tiered loot and everything. Might bring back a few old players. You never know.

  • Please no because then theyd force everyone into it. Im actually still playing but bringing gambit back might make me leave.

      They've lowered the bar so much that we're asking for gambit now. It truely is the darkest timeline. I could see a world where they bring it back but ruin it with modifiers though. And we all know that the majority of people in MM won't check modifiers so you'll be stuck in matches where your team mates cant break shields or some other crap. Or revives, wouldnt that be crazy?

      • When Gambit first released and I saw that Dredgen title, I played nonstop til I got it. Gambit was still my go to through everything. Bungie didn't care enough to maintain or nurture that mode. Make Gambit Great Again!!

      • Bring back Gambit Prime. With all the armor intrinsically selectable on gambit armor only. The current system lends for it perfectly.

      • They keep hinting they are, can't wait. Best mode in the game, not named raids and dungeons. Side note: Since they told us they weren't doing any more buffs/nerfs to gambit and to go in at your own risk, I've had great matches. Better teammates and opponents cause the main people in the queue, just like the mode, like me.

      • Gambit’s the main thing I miss about D2. Would love to see it get refreshed. Some people got bored of the repetition and others disagreed with how invaders work, but the activity has huge potential. Different modes (including regular, Prime and a more limited invader mode) would help. It really needs more maps, more enemy wave variation, different boss fights, etc. I don’t see Bungie investing that much into it. Not yet anyway. Let’s see what the future holds. 🤞

      • Nah. It died for a reason. And they never balanced invaders until it was too late and nobody cared anymore. This game is never getting its population back. So these pvp modes will always just have a high chance of playing against tryhard toyboys. Its why Trials sets a new low for player count every single week now.

      • Nope, that game mode is terrible, it should just be deleted at this point. Use the resources for something else.

      • Loot won't save any game mode in the current system. The looter aspect of this game is gone.

        • Nah they should of killed gambit months ago ! Gambit was amazing when it first dropped not now ….a lousy sad one round one mode now …zero rewards now. Bungie need to pump some new life into PvP …more players and easy to do .

        • A year ago everyone complained Gambit was neglected etc etc etc. Along with the storyline I think we can let this one go. It had a run way longer than it really needed IMO. The best I think they could do is just put it in rotation like Iron Banner and such so it doesn't stay too stale and monotonous like it was.

          As far as I've seen they're bringing back gambit and srl, i know it's a survey but they're talking about new gambit mode.

        • Minimal work? You are aware the primary reason old activities haven't been brought up to speed with new gear, is because of how many resources it would take. Thanks for telling everyone that you have literally no clue how any of this -blam!- works lol. On top of that you're asking for a dead mode to be resurrected so 10, maybe 15 people can play it. Literally nobody cares about gambit, they aren't going to revive it with brand new gear.

          • Check out the new Renegades activity coming up. It's not technically gambit, but it is similar.

            • The survey I did yesterday kept asking me about new gambit modes.

            • Wonder which “Gambit” version? The OG with the “Armor” specific Gambit Perk tied or the Re:Vamp when they remove that one Bridged where your team have to survive the checkpoints :/ I been through it & sadden they remove Gambit armor perks.

            • I agree with you. I'd like to see Gambit back to relevance. I don't agree with you that it would be easy in any way. I believe it would require a lot of resources. And I don't think anything but a complete rework would motivate most players to spend much time on it. The Gambit meme is real.

              Gambit had so many fundamental flaws that destroyed the gamemode. But the culprit, as always, was Bungie neglecting the bare minimum adjustments to make the gamemode palatable. The absolute randomization of the health locks on the Primeval was the greatest detriment to the gamemode. Removed any form of a skill ceiling and made it a casino. The easiest fix would have been killing the envoy drops a buff that grants a timed DPS window. When the buff runs out, the health closes. Would've made that gamemode 1,000 times better than the roulette it dragged on as. Obviously dying removes that buff, so you'd just time invasions with Envoy kills like people already do. Doesn't change any of the gamemode's fundamentals or strategies, just makes it fair and not randomized health gates. Which is how PVP should be. Also lets those PVE DPS gods drop insane combos to nuke Primevals without fear of their skill getting hit by some random BS healthgate. Such an EZ solution that could've built on existing programming, but NOPE. Bungie has been determined to tank this franchise cuz they can't divorce it.
