The PVP Community Has A Problem
"I'm fairly new to D2, and never played enough crucible in D1 to even learn the maps. Reading these replies is the reason I haven't even attempted pvp or anything of the sort yet. Not looking forward to just getting bug squashed but skilled teams over and over before I can even figure out what I'm doing, let alone the map layout itself, especially with so much to do to keep me busy playing solo already. What incentive as a beginner with random party matching, do I have to attempt this absurdity? From what I can tell... there's a problem here."

I pulled that quote from a reply by a New Light player from a post complaining about the matchmaking nightmare that is Trials right now. When this is how we make New Lights feel, we don't deserve Trials revamps or new maps or modes or anything like that. This is -blam!- disgraceful. I feel the pain of pvp being neglected just the same as you, but this is not okay. I'll repeat, terrorizing new players is not okay.

I’ve been known to play cod pvp a little bit. Not really my thing but some mods are really fun but destiny pvp is a nightmare as a new player (accept mayhem which is top -blam!- tier). The massive skill gap killed my desire to learn but the chad git gud noob stompers plus Bungie forcing it with catalyst objectives and yes I said FORCED! Galvanized my hate for the mode. I’m not one to be told what to do even more so when someone tries to act like I just need to take it no sir not this guy. But it’s really not reasonable to force it in the state it’s in and how it caters to players who’ve been here since day one. I get that they can’t be left behind but that just makes the barrier to entry thicker and the forced matter to be more frustrating. There’s been a reasonable way to alleviate this but it remains to be seen.
