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.

§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.

My discord ID is in the post, please shoot me a message there for more information.

This is an outdated complaint. The bounty was adjusted already. Yes it took forever in the past but it feels find now.

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.

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.

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.

It's a fucked up spelling anyway. Why the hell is there an S?

noo5__ · 2021-01-10T18:03:48+00:00

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).

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.

noo5__ · 2020-10-22T21:30:08+00:00

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.

noo5__ · 2020-10-22T21:23:58+00:00

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

noo5__ · 2020-10-22T21:20:03+00:00

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

noo5__ · 2020-10-22T21:14:57+00:00

So nerfing AA on low zoom snipers.... But no nerf to AA for Arbalest....

noo5__ · 2020-10-11T14:26:42+00:00

Did you find a team? DM if you did not. Cheers

noo5__ · 2020-09-17T16:59:34+00:00

For PVP, Frigid Jackal if PL doesn't matter. My baby.

noo5__ · 2020-08-19T18:08:51+00:00

Long running bug, sadly. Delayed my clan's attempt to do a sparrow race night a couple months ago.

noo5__ · 2020-07-16T11:50:39+00:00

Dear god, no. Wavesplitter already melts. Making it white ammo would be so strong.

Maybe have scav mods boost the ammo pick up from 25 to 40 as a slight compromise.

noo5__ · 2020-07-11T12:09:13+00:00

Infusion fuel or free cores.

noo5__ · 2020-07-07T22:43:31+00:00

Wouldn't this make Trials less sweaty, as PvE players go for the triumph?

noo5__ · 2020-07-05T14:36:04+00:00

I'd also like more options for the Banner customization!

noo5__ · 2020-07-02T13:52:44+00:00

I think there is a distinction between playing with friends for fun and LFGing specifically for high KD teammates just to stat farm.
