Deej looking dapper as hell in stream haha

 

[brianjones]

interesting.. looks like survival mode from the last of us

there's rounds and when you die thats it for that round

 

[willow ve]

Been spending most our lives living in a campers paradise.

Elimination style is going to expose some of the maps for being extremely lopsided toward one spawn.

 

[Darryl M R]

Just tuned into the twitch chat now, what info did I miss in the first 10 minutes

 

[Mindlog]

It's Elimination with heavy ammo. Why wouldn't you switch to Truth?

"Across the board, Bungie is laser focused on making Crucible matches more rewarding. You’ll earn double the engrams and marks in Crucible matches, as well as guaranteed rewards for participating in the daily featured game. "

This is good news I guess. The current drop rates for engrams in Crucible is terrible.

 

[nOoblet16]

Spawns should switch and Supers make this game mode less interesting.

This is basically Execution from Gears of War if you ask me with no power weapon gameplay of course..

More PS exclusives map.

 

[brianjones]

he got gear from just 1 match.. wow

no matchmaking.. need a team of 3

 

[xplicitone]

Looks interesting

 

[Forerunner]

Gear drops too, so you can suck and still get items!

No MM is stupid though.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Armor drops as random crucible drop.

No matchmaking, can't play solo.

 

[Deku Tree]

No MM for ToO.
Bungie wont find your friends for you lolz.

 

[Unstable]

he got gear from just 1 match.. wow

Don't get too excited. That's never going to happen to any of us.

 

[Darryl M R]

DGAF ToO teams? Sign me up for being down for pick up games.

 

[noomi]

No MM for ToO.
Bungie wont find your friends for you lolz.

Well.... alright then...

 

[Twilight Gap]

trials of osiris

NO RANDIES

 

[Orochinagis]

wait, so it will be 3vs3? but we are a team of 5

 

[xplicitone]

trials of osiris

NO RANDIES

Haha this has you written all over it!

 

[nOoblet16]

Bungie you are not the first developer to have an elimination type game mode, we know match making with randoms is not an issue with this game mode and it could work. (If you think it is then those apply to every other crucible game mode too then)

WHY NOT GIVE US OPTIONS !!

 

[Namikaze1]

You all step back! I'm first in line to play with Zoba once ToO is up!

Get in the back of the line!

 

[Messiek]

This will be fun to try.
HoW is looking good so far : )

 

[Mengetsu]

I'm liking this. Team work needed.

 

[LifEndz]

Bungie you are not the first developer to have an elimination type game mode, we know match making with randoms is not an issue with this game mode and it could work. (If you think it is then those apply to every other crucible game mode too then)

WHY NOT GIVE US OPTIONS !!

Agreed. Yet another mode where I'm relegated to lfg sites or begging on DGAF. Probably won't play ToO all that much.

 

[robertlebrone]

I don't understand why there is no matchmaking for this?

 

[LiK]

You all step back! I'm first in line to play with Zoba once ToO is up!

who's the 3rd?

It's supposed to be competitive, with very attractive rewards. Sending randos out to die against teams which communicate would dilute the challenging nature of the event.

 

[Namikaze1]

Fuck Felwinter! Fuck Thorn!

Spoiler

Need to max out Felwinter soon...

who's the 3rd?

Fig and Math will have to duke it out.

Spoiler

just join in when they're not looking.

 

[Doomshroom]

No way i will play trails of Osiris. IB is already way to stressful and with smaller teams its going to be more people depending on you. Im out.

Give me raids and horde mode.

 

[LiK]

Fuck Felwinter! Fuck Thorn!

Spoiler

Need to max out Felwinter soon...

Fig and Math will have to duke it out.

not even me? hate

 

[BreezyLimbo]

No matchmaking!

ALRIGHT GAF LINE UP WHO WANTS TO MM WITH ME AND MY DULCE TONES!

 

[Darryl M R]

Fuck Felwinter! Fuck Thorn!

Spoiler

Need to max out Felwinter soon...

Fig and Math will have to duke it out.

Is it possible to get a Felwinter to drop this IB?

 

[Deku Tree]

I'll sign up to play with Unstable and Zoba.

 

[Ambitious]

Skirmish without respawns, locked to a single map per week. How exciting.

 

[LTWood12]

My guess is there's no matchmaking to keep it from being so easy for the coordinated teams to get all the gear super fast. Coordinated team constantly playing randos would burn through the content faster than they want.

i don't think i can take a super sweaty pvp mode on burning shrine >.>

 

[BiGBoSSMk23]

DGAF how many shots does the Juggernaut shield take on PvP before it breaks? Is it more viable than unstoppable?

Also, does having an IB emblem affect daily bounties if you have a Faction class item equipped?

 

[Flying Toaster]

Hell yes D-GAF. Just Hunter and Titan trophies left...

Then I too will be awesome well almost as awesome as the rest of the Guardian Lords.

Salvage was annoying.

 

[Namikaze1]

not even me? hate

Hey, while they're busy duking it out, just slide in and take the spot.

Is it possible to get a Felwinter to drop this IB?

Don't know. You may need to ask one of the guys who been playing IB.

 

[Mindlog]

Am I the only one that switches weapons when heavy ammo drops?

I don't understand why there is no matchmaking for this?

Probably a little bit of everything.
The high stakes and cost involved vs Bungie's inability to provide decent PvP matchmaking. Most teams probably win more than 90% of their games and this mode seems like a direct response to that. Now only a few teams will continue winning 90% of their games.

 

[Messiek]

Who is carrying me through ToO ? hehe

 

[nOoblet16]

It's supposed to be competitive, with very attractive rewards. Sending randos out to die against teams which communicate would dilute the challenging nature of the event.

My point being, Gears is one of the most competitive games I've played (where the skill level required to be good is very high, higher than Destiny) and if an elimination type mode can work in that game with randoms then it could work in any game.

And again, why not give me options?
It's a 3vs3 mode, exactly like Skirmish but with no respawns.


EDIT: The drop rate in this stream is obviously ridiculously high and I doubt we'll see it in final game.

Ok so when do they announce the exclusive PS strike? And the exclusive PS exotic GHorn killer? Next Wed? May 8?

 

[Impala26]

My guess is there's no matchmaking to keep it from being so easy for the coordinated teams to get all the gear super fast. Coordinated team constantly playing randos would burn through the content faster than they want.

This is the reason for no matchmaking most definitely.

 

[SockyJohnson]

Not much into PvP but if The Fate of All Fools bounty is still tied to ToO then I guess I'm gonna have to give it a try one day.

 

[Darryl M R]

Anyone know if Feltwinter's Lie is a drop this IB? I missed out on it last time since I was on Spring Break.
