I don’t remember them mentioning the changes to rift but now we have a first to 4 mercy rule? Maybe even first to 3? Regardless, the change is welcomed.
I still think kills should count for something but overall I think I really love rift. I’m not a fan of 6v6 modes much but Rift is excellent. Feels more like sport.
Good job!
I’m hoping we get a crucible overhaul soon tho. Scrap, team scorched, momentum control. Bring back some of the larger Mars maps from both D1 and D2 (since the destination is sorta unvaulted).
And honestly … bring back that bigger map with the vehicles from D1. What was that called? Domination? I know it had its issues then and they scrapped it a few times but with D2 movement being faster and covering greater distances generally, I think it’ll be fine.
Lump all 6v6 modes into a single playlist. Control, rift and Clash. Control is way too sweaty for casuals itself. Especially when stacks enter the game to ruin it for everyone.
Have a map and mode vote. See Splitgate for example I’m thinking of. This will keep variety. Also, create vote mechanic to make sure players don’t always vote for control 5 matches in a row.
Then have a more hardcore playlist comprised of Elimination, Survival, and Rumble. Maybe even that older trials of the nine mods with the planting the bomb.
Bungie, hire me now. I can fix this
Speaking of Splitgate… I might return to it for a week or two. I love D2 pvp. That’s my greatest hobby for years now. However, it’s too goddamn sweaty. It’s like street fighter online… casuals get wrecked because of raw knowledge of meta and builds.
Splitgate is a nice alternative once in awhile. Way less stressful and easier to play. Just needs a next gen port at this point.
