Thank you for sharing. Reading this just reaffirms my belief that SBMM is working and that people with different skill levels who play together in pvp will not have an enjoyable experience. Bungie mentioned that they try to keep all players at a 50:50 win/loss ratio and an even 1.00 KD. So your friend #2 was doing so well with you guys and on his own that he moved up and he has to do crap and lose A LOT to get back down to you and your female friend's skill level. It's BS. They're segregating players pretty much. If you all play together, no one would have fun.

Yeah that [i]is[/i] what it feels like. We had so much fun the previous two weeks, but the past 3-4 days it has been hell. Friends #1 and #2 were raging, and they proposed quitting mid-match once last night (none of us have ever done that). They asked me if I wanted to quit, and I was of course busy playing (I don't use a mic so couldn't stop and send a text), so we stayed in.

I am an average pvp pIayer above average at best please take my opinion with a grain of salt and respond with a respectful retort if necessary. I dont think they realize their want for a 50:50 win/loss ratio in the destiny pvp community isnt really their decision. To me it seems like their hearts are in the right place in their attempts to balance pvp, but using your power as the games developer to influence player stats to your desired goal rather than letting the nature of destiny pvp itself handle the food chain is in my opinion inherently wrong.

I agree- artificial manipulation of a competitive game's results is cheating. In this case it's not even one player trying to cheat the other- it's the game itself cheating to skew the results. We shouldn't call it PvP- it's now P-v-Code-v-P or something.

Coming from an above average skilled player to another, I have the same sentiments as you. It isn't right and they should bring back CBMM. SBMM wasn't the right decision in my opinion. It just made Destiny worst and even more frustrating. I still win most of my games but for everyone else, including me, everyone is having a hard time. It's not chill anymore. It's just do whatever it takes to win.
