Lmfaooooo nice.

ANYYYYYYYYY BF player KNOWS it's not KD.
It's PTFO.
Always.
Doesn't change.

Can't help when No one from the squad plays anymore but me.
Can't help when randoms play like it's COD.

When you're a medic, you takes kills while saving lives.
When you're support, you're the first in and get killed.


I realize this is the first time you've walked your baby nuts up to play a real MP and you're used to run and gun. I get that, arcades are fun man.
This is a different animal.

Sure will post scores from when I get on tonight, I've invited you to play multiple times if I recall. Guess you're too busy looking up empty stats.

I'll be on again tonight though.

@JEWSEEJAY is that you?

I was playing yesterday and was pised. On defense for rush. Got 10 unexperienced snipers. They cut through us easier than a heated knife through butter.

 

[djyoung08]

omg what just happened

 

[mrdeeds]

People that don't have at least a bare minimum of a 1 k/d shouldn't be allowed to post about FPS games.

If you aren't positive it's clear you have no idea what's going on.

Don't doubt him.

 

[djyoung08]

Never really looked at my battlefield stats... here's battlefield 4

I feel like my score per minute is really high even though my KD is bad.

At least i have a stat that shows I play the objective... not just arbitrarily saying KD isnt everything when every other stat is weak too

You're a real savage for posting those stats though.  You could have just ignored all that noise he was making because you actually knew he wasn't a threat but instead you chose to expose him.  Moments like that is why I still love NT.

Nah, it wouldn't be a good idea for them.  They should just stick to calling COD trash.

I'm not saying k/d is everything but the skill floor before someone is allowed to talk any trash is a 1 k/d.  Anything less and people should humble themselves.

Made me curious I was like "man this dude better be wrecking the BF realm talkin like this"

The stats you posted were lulz tho...

I didnt even consider myself to be that good at battlefield... i thought statistically i'd be much worse than anyone who claimed BF savagery

Everything You Need To Know About Destiny’s Private Matches

What are private matches, and how are they different from other PvP content in Destiny?

Until now, playing PvP in Destiny meant that you needed to play matchmade games, and the system selected your opponents. You could choose your own teammates, but not who you were fighting against. In addition, standard Crucible play limits the options of what you can select about your play style. For instance, you could choose to play the Control game mode, but not on which map you’d like to play Control.

That all changes with private matches. You can now have the full roster of both competing teams queuing up in orbit, and the leader can select any number of options, including game type, map, score limit, time limit, light level (enabled or disabled), and time of day.

Private matches are a new option for how players can engage in competitive play. The established matchmaking options are still in place, as are all the special game modes like Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner. Private matches just offer a new playspace for Guardians looking for a more customized experience with friends (or known rivals).

Can I really play Crucible PvP any way I want with my friends?

Based on our conversation with the Bungie team, you can plan to play almost any existing variation of Crucible play with a variety of options, and you can check many of those options out in the video above.

Bungie was up front with us that this first pass at private matches doesn’t allow for tweaking endless options, and there are limits to how much you can veer off established rules that are currently available in existing Crucible play. For instance, there’s no current way to tweak ammo drop rates. In our conversations with Bungie, the PvP developers understood that there are other tweaking options that players will desire in the long term. However, in our experience playing it, this new private match functionality is an excellent step in the right direction, and should allow for a multitude of new ways to play Destiny, not to mention opening up the door to a broader public competitive scene.

Even though I can’t set the rules with crazy tweaks, could my friends and I make our own house rules?

Absolutely. In fact, Bungie told us they were especially excited to see what new informal game types and rules players concoct. For instance, you can’t set the match to “Hand Cannons Only,” but if everyone in the match is on board with that plan, there’s nothing to stop you from playing with that style.

We can also imagine a lot of other more imaginative ways to play. How about 6v1 Hide and Seek where only the person who is “It” can use weapons, but everyone else is allowed to melee? Or Control matches where no one is allowed to take anything but Point B. And that’s just off the top of our heads. There are a multitude of options, and we’re (almost) as excited as the Bungie team to see what the community comes up with.

Do the new private matches support every competitive mode that has shown up in the game?

Most, but not all modes are supported. The limited-time Crimson Doubles event is not included as an option. And technically, SRL could be considered PvP, and that is not included in the new private match functionality.

Does this mean I can run or play in private tournaments now?

We don’t see why not. Bungie Crucible team members told us that they know that some enterprising players were already going to incredible lengths to have their teams match up with one another in matchmade play, and attempting to run private tournaments. This new feature should allow player groups to have invite-only matches. The new private match functionality doesn’t intrinsically support any tournament matching, but any given tournament organizer should be able to figure out their own brackets and match structure.

How many players are supported in private matches?

Up to 12, but you can have any number fewer than that.

Does that mean I can make 12-person fireteams elsewhere in the game?

No. 12-person lobbies/orbits are currently only featured in private competitive matches.

So, can I enter Crucible matches by myself?

Yep, you sure can. Many players find it useful to enter a PvP map prior to competing, in order to find sniping lanes, check out ammo spawns, and track routes between objective points. You can now do that without a problem. Or, you know, you can go have a pleasant sit at Twilight Gap, and enjoy the bounty of nature.

Can I have more than six players on a team?

No. You can have mismatched teams (for instance, 5v2 is allowable) but you can’t have more than six guardians on a single team.

How do I switch teams once I’m in the lobby?

Pressing L1 or R1 changes your team affiliation, but you can’t start the match if you have an illegal time size, as mentioned above.



Can I play any existing game mode on any map?

Yes, and that should be a pretty exciting feature for many players. Experienced Crucible players know that several of the game maps used in matchmade play only show up when playing certain game modes. Want to play Elimination on Skyshock? Have at it.

What about vehicles? Can I use them on any map?

Yes to vehicles, but no to being able to play with them on any map. Only the maps that previously allowed for vehicles support vehicular combat.

Can I set private matches so that my friends can join in progress?

Yes, you can keep your group open to allow latecomers to join when they arrive, or you can close the party after a match starts.

Can I change the appearance of any of the maps?

You can change the time of day to your preference.

What about enabling power and light level to factor in, like it does with Trials and Iron Banner?

Light level defaults to being disabled like it is in most Crucible matches, but you can easily enable light level, so that your Guardian’s power affects the strength of your weapons and armor.

What about clan support?

Bungie is still working toward the comprehensive retrofit of clan support that we all hope to see at some point, but there’s a nod to the importance of clans in the UI of the new private matches. The match creator’s clan affiliation is now prominently set near the top left of the game lobby.

How will playing in private matches affect my character progression? What rewards can I get?

Bungie is aiming to strike a balance between making private matches meaningful, but not overly easy to exploit for progression. As such, you will not receive legendary or exotic rewards after a private match completion. However, you can still gain weapon XP in a private match, and you can complete daily PvP bounties. Private matches also reward glimmer and faction rep, just like a normal Crucible match.

Should we expect that we would start seeing Destiny in competitive eSports?

This move certainly allows for that possibility. Bungie told us they were eager to see if the community embraces a more public competitive scene in the wake of private match introduction.

Do I need to own Rise of Iron to play private matches?

No. Private matches are available to all Destiny players on current gen-consoles, including PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
