Even streamers are complaining about the trials population lol

Top players complaining about trials population being low already is the funniest thing I've been seeing. Because now you all see that its not as popular as you all think. You wanted a sweet mode now you have you're exclusive club and us average players are not playing it anymore. Now you're crucible playlist made for you is about to die off and you all said if we're not good enough go play something else. Guess what we have and we're no longer your cannon fodder for easy wins. Suck it up and deal with the fact we're not enjoying players stomping on us anymore every dam game. If trials dies it all on you for the way you all rub it in our faces about going flawless 40+ times in one weekend and the 99% of the playerbase wont ever go once its a hope less situation for us. Im ok with never going flawless and im ok with your playlist going away because it's all toxic anyways. No one wants to play the 1% of those god tear players and no one wants your influence on this game anyway. What we want is fair matchmaking and enjoy the games we play not get stomped every time we step into a crucible match. Trials needs to go away away and stay away or make it fare for everyone to play not just the streamers or elitist players. You all have made your bed without ever considering that maybe the casual player base is the reason this game mode was to stay alive. Now you all are crying that there are not enough casual players in the game mode. We'll were not coming back and nothing you do out side of making a flawless only que matchmaking for those that have already gone flawless that weekend will bring us back. Hope you all enjoy trials now because it wont last if us casual player stay gone and the population stays so low its not worth bungies time to invest in that mode any more.

      [spoiler]*cracks knuckles at 2a to write this[/spoiler] [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: Ok Devs.??? DEVS!!! [b][u]Dev Hydra[/u][/b]: *finishes burning a certain Forbes article* what? Were busy [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: yeah well the forums are on fire... [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: when aren't they? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]:...more than usual...like a lot more. J-just take a seat [b][u]Devs[/u][/b] Fine. *Rolling eyes* what is it [i]this[/i] time? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b] a lot actually. First of all...what the Gjallerhorn is up with these huge bunkers appearing out of nowhere? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: first of all, don't swear in our presence you impudent worm. 2nd, don't question it. They're there now and they'll be gone in 2.5 months [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: and that makes LITERALLY no sense. The Sundial? Sure why not. Corridors? Locked. Fine whatever. But you're trying to sell that these bunkers have just been THERE for {I dunno 3-400yrs?? I didn't get the season pass for... reasons} and even with the tech that is available canotically in-universe, no one knew about them til now?? And they're just gonna not exist in 2 months and No one's gonna question that? [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: yeah that's pretty much the energy here. Whats your point? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: it seems...insulting...like just insulting in general [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: They bought that Mara is away doing something "important" so why not this? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: ok fine whatever...not the biggest deal anyways. *Throws away notecard* ah. Iron Banner. [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: what? It's been the same for months. If it's not broke we won't fix it. [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: survey says *flatly* [u]it's boring.[/u] [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: no it's not! It's been a staple for years! [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: and the weapons haven't changed in what seems like years....they're the EXACT same weapons and it's the EXACT same game mode. People get bored. [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: Fine. What do you suggest? As long as it doesn't require you know... effort that we can't monetize [b][u] Dmg[/u][/b] I mean Siva-themed legendary gear wouldn't hurt. An Iron Lord Title? [b][u] Devs[/u][/b]: but creating content is hard *starts stamping feet on Faction Rug* [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: k fine. *Under breath* what do they [u][b][i]do[/i][/b][/u] in development then?? Then instead of making content. How about re-tweaking your "latest" project? Trials. [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: Look, we copy and pasted it over from D1 where it worked. So obviously it should work. If not, it's the player-base problem. [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: you realize that gaming has changed right? We gotta adapt or else the minimal effort of copy and paste won't mean anything. [u][b]Devs[/b][/u]: Fine...*Picks Faction-locked ornament out of teeth* let's here what you think... [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b] maybe instead of making matching a free-for-all, we could match people at similar progress levels? Like 6w vs 6w and 2w vs 1w. It wouldn't hurt. [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: Not bad...not bad... [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: wait seriously? Ok well what if the differential limit was optional? And if you played with it off, you could get bonuses for the win? Like if your team is on 2w and you win against a 6w...you each get I dunno an ascendant shard? Get to pick a catalyst you're missing? Tr3-Vr gets its weakspot?{Praise be unto Tr3-Vr} [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: and the Flawless Elite? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: I dunno. Throw in a flawless button that lets teams try to beat flawless teams? Make sure Flawless Elites only go against 5w+? Or give them some special "Burden of Osiris" card where they nerf themselves before going against regulars? [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: interesting....but what would Lord Dato say? *Gestures to the Dato sculpture* [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]:...wait is that new? [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: yup. Made of unsold Title Pins and melted down Anthem discs. Oh check out the plaque! [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: "In Dato we trust. Long live Eververse." Wow. Ok... [b][u]Devs[/u][/b]: so your "suggestions" were "nice" but here are the facts. People are still playing the game. Our numbers are still higher than Anthem. We're flush with cash from Eververse. And this whole Social Distancing thing just means more gameplay time. [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: but [b][u] Devs[/u][/b]: so UNLESS one of those aspects starts failing, I suggest you paint on a happy face and continue to humor their "frustrations" about [i][u]our[/u][/i] game. Have we made ourselves clear? [b][u]Dmg[/u][/b]: *sigh* yes... [b][u] Devs[/u][/b]: exactly. Now don't forget to delay Void week on your way out. "wE wAnT LAncE BAcK" adorable... [spoiler]annnnd scene[/spoiler] [spoiler]and since the Community Guidelines changed, I'll say this post was entirely made in satire and [i][u]obviously[/u][/i] not talking bad about Bungie as a gaming company. Because [i]clearly[/i] the Devs aren't an arrogant Hydra that enjoys the frustration of its tired player-base. And of course they don't worship some entity named Dato {I legitimately don't know what a Dato is and I'm literally too lazy to Google it[/spoiler]

      • I used to feel like the pvp people were the most toxic... But everything I see in here now is pve people being toxic because they can't succeed in pvp endgame. I consider myself a pve player who happens to do both BTW.

        • Bingo. I attempted Trials and it was the most toxic experience I've ever had. T-baggers galore, aim bots, etc., all in my first three games. Walking away from being cannon fodder... I used to play D1 Trials and while it was sweaty as -blam!-...at least you could get loot, get 4-5 wins together...this bullshit is awful. Something has to change. The reward structure and...some parameters on matchmaking against teams' elo. Bungie a SUGGESTION: Let ultra sweat elo players get matched based on wi⁹ns, and low/average elo players get matched based on wins. Boom. Give adept weapons for those ultra sweat players for flawless...put back on the old D1 perk that you had on those old adepts.

          • Btw, most , abd I mean 75% of ppl who are sniping you going around the corner in milliseconds are modded PS4 and using wall hacks and aimbot, another 75% are just plain garbage and know how to DDOS, so Trials is the most disgusting toxic garbage it was in destiny 1, and same in trials of the 9. No one even knows yet that there’s a glitch to regain your super after using it. You simply use your super, kill all 3, jump off the map before the timers done, and voila you have a fresh super every round!

            • I actually dont think its trials that is the problem. I think it is how it was implemented. Of course you are going to have people not good in trials. But they should be able to get the basic rewards from it. Putting it behind 3 wins and needing to unlock the gear before you can get it to drop from saint was a dumb move by bungie.

            • This is hilarious how bad pvp players cry about trials vs the top 1%, top 1% cries cuz they have rough games this is like global elite in cs:go would cry they have to play against global elites and supremes not some random silver folks, lulz the bad pvp players are crying cuz they are not as good as the others and to stay with cs:go, they are like silvers who would want to be global without the proper skill both far end is funny

                  Don't kid yourself. Lots of streamers were taken aback by the animosity slung their way in recent posts by members of the community for the way they have been farming casual players for tokens for the trials shotgun. Check out all the streamers now trying to speak on behalf of the community on how Trials is set up to deflect from the way they have earning off others community members misery.

                    I understand your frustration, but as I see, the 1st big big problem is hackers: aimbotters (some of them even "hide" it well, like, only toggling it when necessary to win), wallhacks, some of them just don't care to be seen and they just teleport, rush like a cheetah, infinite lives, infinite supers, infinite heavy or special ammo and firing them like 1900 auto rifles etc. Because I know there are a lot of good players out there, but come on dude, suddenly when D2 is free on Steam and ToO is back, a lot of (hundreds if not thousands) players appear out of nowhere and they are way better than ppl like Luminosity, Nferraiu, Sonic, Wallah, SirD, Panduh etc etc etc?! I knew something was wrong specially last weekend in Widow's Court (terrible map choice) and since a lot of players discovered there is a D2 hacking tool or whatever is called for free, makes a lot of sense, now I understand why no matter how hard I try, suddenly some players hit me with godly jump headshots after not hitting once before, or why there were ppl who never missed a single bullet. And Bungo saying "uh... banhammer still smashing here hehehe... keep it clean boys" pfffft. There's proof that a single hacker has been going flawless carrying several times and nothing happens. The "anti-cheat system" that Bungo claims to have is a lie, they remind me these government offices where they do a one day work in a month, all useless and lazy, and out of date. And yes, second "problem" at least for me is account recoveries: Damn, so if by miracle you don't face a hacker, chances are high that you are facing super top tier players using someone else's account because that person is so bad that they paid the top tier player to use his/her account to take him/her to the lighthouse. I am not against carries or help (it's not always a "carry" because there are some decent players that they just don't have the right teammates or clan to play pvp), but account recoveries... last i knew it was against ToS and you are still ruining the experience for some ppl that maybe they want to try by themselves getting their 3rd, 5th or even 7th win and one day flawless. The ironic part is that Bungo said that they were "working" in how to improve the Trials experience, that's why Trials of the Nine was removed and that's why Trials of Osiris wasn't brought back immediately, they said ToO was old, D1 mechanics that couldn't fit with today's pvp experience... yeah right. But after a year or idk how long you bring back ToO exactly the same way, with old armor, no adept weapons, tokens system that doesn't work? Ok maybe that's because you were working so hard in an anti-cheat system and after that you can focus on really NEW content... but NO. None of that, wow. (And don't forget that Iron Banner is still the same, no new weapons, always old armor and same game mode). It's a shame. Oh and forgot to say: those error codes? Cmon dude! You were supposed to work very hard in bringing back Trials and you are full of errors.

                  • Card based matchmaking seems like a great idea, until it's being manipulated to farm tokens for better rolls on weapons. Personally, I think you should have to play your ticket all the way through (no resetting) and when you get 3 losses or hit 7 wins - it breaks and you need to spend another 25k for one.

                  • Token system is the problem. In d1 nobody was farming their first three games so you could at least make it a little bit without facing stacked teams

                  • As i have said before, a tier system is needed, who goes flawless once that week, gets moved to another tier out of the main playlist to a flawless dedicated playlist, to give room to all the others to at least get somewhere on their own, without having to rely on carries or recoveries. 3 tiers would be optimal imo, but 2 would be at least acceptable.

                    • Games rated teen. Must be a good rep bungies got going on to have streamers do transactions and paid carries to minors. Basically taking there money. But of course bungie supports what these streamers do.

                    • It needs to go, but the damage it has seared into the game and its core playerbase over the last 5 years cannot be undone. It just can't. That's why PvP is screwed. That's why balance is screwed, all people do is suck off the meta, get shit nerfed, and move on to leech something else.

                    • Trials of the Nine was better and fine, but Streamers matter more so stfu and take it. They've reverted this game to D1 basically. What a waste. Literally D2 vanilla Trials was better.

                      • No sympathy for streamers a lot think they own game. Only thing is thou they do need to get a grip on rewards pinnacles and fix those bunkers so many problems when running more than one character. If you have more than one certain weapon bounties can’t be picked up do to not doing opening of season pass on that character. Because I play across three characters my bunkers are so messed up I’ve given up on them

                      • lol its actually funny, I am posting my thread I made again and most answers from those who wanted only fireteams said that that the trials was for only the top players. Now that there are only top players its not so fun anymore lol: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/255506120?sort=0&page=0 Well I still say make Trials solo freelance possible. I got screwed this season it feels as I am solo player and couldn't play Trials and the bunker public events has no players. So yea thx bungie for not thinking of the solo players. Imo you need to make focused seasonal events which everyones plays, not add content for the top players cause that is not the majority of players who plays this game. I left the game again unfortunately, shape up I would say....

                        • It sux that there are cheaters and errors happening...I’m a pure casual and don’t have the itch to go into trials. I love watching the highly skilled players though, hopefully Bungie can take the cheating and error soon.

                        • Idiot they are not complaining about a low player population, they are complaining how teams resetting there ticket at 3 wins could impact the casual player base. My team and I went Flawless twice the past weekend, no problem getting into games, no waiting, on ps4. Get your facts straight before you open your mouth and convince everyone here how stupid you really are.

                          • Hm.. they're not upset that the numbers are dwindiling down on casual players, they're upset that they keep encountering cheaters and getting beavered. On top of that the streamers I've watched agree that the casual player should have incentive to play trials via: make the rewards benefit all players, get adept weapons at flawless. Make it so everyone can benefit and not just the most hardcore players. What streamers are you watching that say the game shouldn't be for casual players too? Kackis, Aztec, mtashed, are the ones I've seen that would like it to be for everyone. I haven't watched others. But I'm sure most streamers/YouTubers are for the general public.
