Trials-Matchmaking is the worst thing ever.

Im fully aware of the people that will come after me for posting this. I dont have a problem with general balancing. Destiny will alaways be a game that is unbalanced to some degree and thats part of what seperates it from your "generic competitive shooter". My problem is, that I want to get better, while playing with my friends. But if 9/10 trials matches are against people with flawless and/or Unbroken and several adept weapons, theres just no "experience" to be had to grow my skill off of. Why cant we matchmake people to a similar skill level. SKill Based matchmaking exists and if its currently active, I dont see it working the way it should. I dont want free loot, I dont want easy adept weapons. Adept gear should be a flawless thing with bragging rights. But to me, only playing it for the endgame bounty just isnt fun. I want to have a chance to earn that cool armor and weapons. Just make it accessible. Please.

  • But then players who can actually go flawless then hit a decline where they reverse boost just to get easier lobbies, so in turn the game would remain roughly the same. I get it, in a way why lower skilled players kinda think skill based matchmaking in trials would make it better but it wouldn’t. Because trials isn’t that kind of game mode. So to put it into perspective, let’s say just now I’m a 0.5 0 flawless all that, now sbmm is in place, so as I get kinda better my lobbies do, now it’s actually harder to go flawless. And as my stats and me play better, it’s less and less likely I’ll win 7 games. So I turn to a recov, a 2.5 now playing in 0.8 lobbies, it’s asking for recovs to run even more than they are. Alternatively, let’s say I’m a 2.6. I don’t wanna match 2.0s all the way to flawless no way, so I reverse boost to a 0.5, and straight away I go flawless. I think more players playing the game mode would help, it always does. And I think cbmm would also help because then, you don’t get that steep hill after 4/5 wins. You could have the sweatiest games at 1/2, 5, or none. Every player has a chance then to get lucky on a card and go flawless. But with card based like we have, each win the player pool is smaller, and there’s far more chance you’re getting a stacked team. Don’t get me wrong, sbmm has its place. It should be in comp because not everyone is cuewed as equal in there, some have higher glory some have lower some have great kds and whatever. But trials is where everyone is on the same block. So if it’s a chance to getting loot you want, I hope you can understand why it’s cbmm thag would actually help. Not sbmm.
