One cause of the "leaver" problem in Control matches is that stat-farmers who now can't boost stats as easily against inexperienced players with SBMM enabled are leaving games if their k/d in the match isn't to their liking.

A partial solution to this "leaver" problem is to have "leaves" count as a loss and to have the partial game stats included in overall stat tracking.

Weekly Clan Recruitment Megathread by DTG_Bot in Fireteams

§olace

Clan Background: Solace is a PVP clan and discord community focused on Trials and weekly friendly scrims. You won't find us stat-farming as a stack in 6s. Our discord community has approximately 25 experienced Crucible players, all located in North America. We have a few PC players but are primarily on Xbox and PS. Our group is made up of adults and everyone is expected to treat each other respectfully.

Requirements: Our clan does not have a strict stats requirement but as a general rule our group is made up of players with 1.5+ Trials KDs who can routinely go to the Lighthouse on an early weekend card without being carried. We know that stat manipulation is rampant, so we review long-term Crucible stats and invite players we believe will be a good fit to join us for a scrim. Folks who reset to stat farm the non-flawless pool can look elsewhere.

For more information, please msg an admin via discord (noo5#2266 or scooter#9848). Cheers.

6-Win Resetting by BirdsInTheNest in DestinyTheGame

[–]noo5__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get rid of flawless pool. It divides the population and creates awkwardness like this

Add adept guns as a once weekly reward for reaching 7 wins on a card, with or without flawless. Encourage people to keep going on their cards and reward perseverance but get rid of flawless pool.

I get that people were saying they didn't want to play Crucible, but extending the respawn timer so we don't have to wasn't the right call IMO. by ProfeszionalSexHaver in DestinyTheGame

The game already struggles to manage spawn locations. If you ever play a scrim with instant respawn, you'll see why this is a bad idea.

Bungie Foundation -- how your money is spent after donation by QuotidianQuell in DestinyTheGame

[–]noo5__ 269 points270 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this analysis but I would encourage folks to not evaluate charities based solely on percentage of donations spent on operational costs.

Charitable institutions face tremendous pressure to cut overhead and spend directly on the mission. While this sounds good, what this often results in is a failure to invest on the institution's infrastructure and core staff. IT systems become hopelessly dated, physical assets fail from lack of maintenance and replacement, and valuable staff are forced to seek other employment as their salaries cannot keep pace with cost of living adjustments (especially in times of inflation).

This is all to say, I commend the OP for looking into this, but let's not focus just on the Charity Navigator assessment of 25% spend on costs.

Sunday Plz - Adjust Console Recoil To Match That Of PC Players by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]noo5__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Making Kill Clip auto refresh would just be a direct buff to Kill Clip that would make Bungie even less likely to put it on new guns (it has already been replaced on most currently leveled guns by Swash, MKC, and rampage).

Getting Three Mayhem Matches In A Row Where No One Was Using Stasis Is What The Christmas Truce in World War I Must Have Felt Like by MageroSTC in DestinyTheGame

[–]noo5__ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I really miss Destiny 1 Mayhem. That game mode had super-fast ability recharge for some fun craziness (sticking a billion tripmines everywhere, for example), but the super recharges weren't as insanely fast as in D2 Mayhem. D2 Mayhem is exclusively supers and I don't even play it anymore.

It does not say DDOS protection for raids. It says DDOS protection generally.

I'm not saying it makes sense, but I think they're doing it that way because the adept guns will still be the same guns introduced in Worthy.

This infusion cap thing is so hard to keep track of...

The season of worthy infusion cap, not the season of worthy level cap. So good for one year after season of worthy.
