Many on here may not be a fan of MLG/E-sports, but in the Halo days of old and the trend of CoD through the years, it has been proven that ranked playlists in multiplayer adds a hefty amount of fun to any competitive game.
With the recent news that Titanfall won't have these playlists, there's still a strong market out there for a new next generation competitive shooter to whip up a storm. Destiny should hopefully pick up from where Halo left off. Mark my words, the first console shooter to have a main focus on multiplayer/ranked playlists much like Halo 2/3 did, will be widely successful.
Who agrees, and to what degree? Discuss, but don't troll or complain. (Although this IS the internet)

Hyper-competition + Anonymity + Loss Anxiety = Negative emotional pressure They call it 'sloping the floor' players will want to collaborate and be rewarded for positive interactions in the game. They've also built tools so that jerks won't ruin anyone's experience. We see some of that built into this website. You'll also want to play a ton in public events and general co-op before entering competitive arena which automatically makes it the best new IP of the year.
