No, this Iron Banner did not attract a record PvP population

I rarely post here and was just checking in because of repeated weasel errors on PS4. Anyway, I see a bunch of people repeating the line that PvP numbers are at record highs for this last Iron Banner. I’m here to tell you that isn’t true. In fact the numbers were lower than in the first Iron Banner of Warmind, I’m sure probably others have been even higher, that was just the first one I checked, thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/hl1ebi/contrary_to_that_post_you_all_liked_pvp/ Basically, Crucible tryhards who are desperate to keep matchmaking changes because it gives them easier games are willing to make up any old bullshit to argue in its favour. I think says a lot, like they know that probably most people will hate this and they’re trying to negate that with a totally made up “fact”. The posts I saw this morning were people basically apologising for their opinion like “I know this was the most popular Iron Banner ever but I found it totally unenjoyable”. Edit: crucible population yesterday was back around 350k and 11% of active players, but yes definitely everyone loves crucible now because CBMM, that’s just facts and logic.

  • ok I have no idea where the line is for considering someone a tryhard but in my case sbmm means I have to sweat all day everyday for every crucible match I ever play. And its just constant meta spam. Look I can't play that hard that often. Its literally not a possibility for me. And what I see when most people say they want sbmm is the fact that they have to fight meta spamming tryhards. with cbmm I still find myself fighting a tun of meta spamming tryhards but its not nearly as bad as it was with sbmm where I can't even catch a break in quickplay. I see what people mean when they say their tired of fighting tryhards. But i'n my case I already have to fight a tun of tryhards but with cbmm it's not all day everyday like it was with sbmm. not to mention the fact that I can actually play with my friends without them having to deal with the people I always have to fight in sbmm. Also the long load times and constant lag that came with sbmm. But thats pretty much It I don't feel like writing an entire essay so I'll end it by saying cbmm gives everyone a chance to either get sweats or non sweats equally. While sbmm makes it so that one side gets sweats and only sweats while the other does not. Ever. I don't really consider it fair to say bring sbmm back so that lower skilled players dont have to fight tryhards when even with cbmm half way decent people still have to fight them even with cbmm.
