Why did I bother to GIT GUD in the Crucible if you're going to remove Skill Based Matchmaking

[b][u]EDIT:[/u] After a few other posts and some helpful replies, I understand I did not actually [i]GIT GUD[/i], I was just benefiting from how the SBMM was putting me into matches. [i]RIP[/i] the days when I was 'good' at Crucible. Turns out I wasn't and it was an SBMM illusion. That said, Crucible is now not fun for me I'm really on the fence about whether I want to put in the time to actually [i]GIT GUD[/i], or if I even can if I'm actually this outclassed.[/b] [u][b]ORIGINAL POST:[/b][/u] I put a lot of work in to [b]git gud[/b] in the Crucible. I only ever went positive by accident in Destiny 1. Put in a lot of work and practice to up my game and by Season of the Worthy I had a 1.5 K/D for that season. You removed Skill Based Matchmaking and now it feels exactly the same as 5 years ago. Doesn't matter what I do, I just get ganked every 10 seconds. [b]Thanks for undoing all the hard work and progress I made.[/b] I used to feel happy and proud of myself after a good Crucible match where I'd done really well. I'd worked hard and progressed and had an accomplishment I was proud of. Now I just feel discouraged at the end of [b][u]every[/u][/b] game because I know [u]the only reason I didn't do better is you guys decided to flip a switch[/u]. [i]...And don't even get me started on how much harder it's made getting any Crucible quests done...[/i] [u][/u]

  • Yup! I suspect it's for the streamers and Trials of Osiris. Easier for streamers to stream without tech issues, and they'll dominate more being connected well to people who are worse at the game. And maybe, MAYBE they think that the problems in Trials of Osiris will be solved by prioritizing connection, or maybe just enough that people will shut up for a little while. Meanwhile the rest of us are going to enjoy being in the game and getting trounced by better connections and the lack of a bracket. We're gonna REALLY enjoy the fact that it doesn't matter how well we do, it's about hoping that the people who are on and match with you are terrible. Especially because the console versions really didn't struggle so much with connection issues, but now that we have to make Trials work on PC and lag/ping are such an issue there, the rest of us must suffer. Thanks for looking after the little guy, Bungie. Not even just the casuals, but everyone else who wanted to enjoy the game.
