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.

    I will be honest, normally I jump on IB and then come to the forums to see if I am the only one not enjoying it... But this time, I actually enjoyed it, games were fun, even when playing against full party teams I didnt feel I was getting destroyed and even if I was loosing by a lot or getting mercy i kind of enjoy the game. but most importantly, I dont remember a single game being laggy, maybe 1 player was laggy but thats about it. And I think thats one of the reason why I enjoyed it so much more. This have been the only PvP I have played since the changes, so I can't really say how this is working on normal crucible but I did like it. now this is my experienced, I have not really played much PvP in the last few weeks/month and I am not a hardcore PvP player but it was nice, came across very good players and tried to learn from them as much as I could, good to come up against them, helped me realize how much I still need to learn. This is my opinion, you would have yours and it will probably be different, and thats ok
