    Destiny 2 just released a new PvP mode called Checkmate Control that's actually incredibly fun. It reduces a lot of the ability spam issues in normal PvP and focuses more on gunplay. I spent the day testing it out, and I think it's a huge W for Bungie and gives me some hope for the future of Destiny PvP.

  • @robin.renaissance
    @robin.renaissance 8 місяців тому +13

    My experience with the mode has been underwhelming, i’ll list out why
    1. Matchmaking: For some reason, every match i queued into took forever and got stuck at 8/12 players. This might be a problem only on console
    2. TTK: They adjusted ttk/general health, but it didn’t make a difference for some weapons. For example, bows and hand cannons have the same ttk (especially igneous hammer). It basically makes it so you have to run a hand cannon, or else you can’t duel correctly in higher skill lobbies
    3. Gameplay: By increasing the TTK and by making it a 6 player mode, the general gameplay loop is reminiscent of year 1 of d2. The best and most optimal way to play is to play with your team and teammshot, which is not the same experience as taking individual duels. In all my games I played today, about 9, all the teams played together moving from point to point. You can’t leave the pack, because you’ll get singled out by the enemy team’s pack. Maybe this is just a problem with control through, since its objective based
    4. Heavy ammo: I don’t know the statistics, but it feels like there is way too much heavy ammo in this mode. In a mode where primary duels is the focus, why can the whole team grab heavy ammo that spawns a little too often. It spawns often enough to make playing around heavy ammo the most optimal way to play.

      2.That is a skill issue. Bad players are too used to just pressing left click on their auto rifle and not caring if it s a body or a headshot. 120 are 1.TTK and 140 are 0.87 TTK.
      Even if you need to hit an extra shot with auto or smg, you are still within (for 140) and under (for 120) the TTK of HC. You just dont auto win duels anymore like in normal crucible.

    • @cataclysticseal2225
      @cataclysticseal2225 7 місяців тому

      not true at all. I am a very skilled player and the fact that I have to compete with people using a weapon that instead of receiving a damage nerf like literally every other weapon in the game mode, got a 10% damage buff. a buff. so no, it's not a skill issue like you claims hand cannons still 3 tap when. unfortunately, there isn't a good middle ground for hand cannons, so this is the reality we live with@@jormungandr4690

    @GryphinHusky 8 місяців тому +23

    My personal favorite weapon for this mode, believe it or not, is Warden's Law. Not even my lethal roll, but my consistent roll - Moving Target/Zen Moment - feels PHENOMENAL. Also, having to play objective and get primary elims to earn special ammo is a really refreshing feeling and it makes the game feel less like "let's all use our ohk specials and only use primaries when we're out of special" and more like a real PRIMARY gunplay mode with SECONDARY weapons being...well, secondary. And abilities being things that you need to use wisely instead of just spamming them also feels so good. Overall I feel like I've had more fun in PVP today than I have in years. So much less "oh that was absolute bullshit" and more "oh man, that guy earned that kill, I need to pay better attention" which is making me feel less angry and more dialed in. Bungie knocked it out of the park with this, and I'd be happy if this just became how PVP played across the board.

    Idk, very little diversity in primary weapon. I would guess 60-70% of lobby’s are hand cannons. It’s fun to an extent and I do prefer the gun play over ability spam. But considering most people still want to use a special instead of using double primary, you see less cqc primaries and more hand cannons. Definitely a win for PvP just not going to call it a home run.

    I'm loving Checkmate as well as the attention Bungie has been giving PVP in general in the last couple of weeks. Best thing about Checkmate is that if you're a crazy person and don't actually like Checkmate, it's not a problem because Checkmate is just a modifier. I can see the Checkmate modifier being used in modes like Trials or Comp but Bungie keeping other more casual modes the way they are currently so that everyone can have something to play and enjoy.
    Also, a quick note about the TTK: I've always liked the longer TTK in this game in particular, even during vanilla D2 days. Sure, the teamshotting can be an issue but now that we have more ways to counter teamshotting (such as more abilities and supers and 1KO weapons that weren't around during vanilla D2) I don't think it will be as much of a problem and the trade off is def worth it.

    Lumina/Boots of Assembler build for Warlocks is really strong in Checkmate, especially if you run Ember of Benevolence to get your abilities back faster.
    Boots of Assembler offer huge bursts of healing at range AND extend the duration of your rift. Each heal triggers Ember of Benevolence.
    They also fixed the tracking the Assembler orbs, meaning each teammate will get a healing orb instead of all five flying to the closest target
    Lumina itself benefits from the handcannon privilege of Checkmate. The 15% damage boost (plus instant heal, which also triggers Benevolence) makes it really easy to land your optimal TTKs.
    The combat Medic build is probably OP for this mode, but we'll see if PvPers actually want to play support

    I haven’t tried it. I might try it someday. I heard mixed reviews. Some people like it. Others say the team shooting meta has returned. And when I say team shooting I know that team based modes will have that but in year one it was so bad that none of our teammates separated to flank different sides. It was mostly passive pushing of that made sense. Teams would push but to a point where they could just melt the other team. Nobody made risky yet rewarding pushes because there weren’t any special weapons. It was autos and scouts specifically mida and Uriel’s gift. If we’re back to that meta I’ll pass. But I’ll try it first.

    Checkmate with the TTKs left alone could be a nice middleground between the stupid ability spam of the post 3.0 sandbox, and Y1 of D2

    My first impressions on the new Checkmate modifier in Crucible Labs:
    - The Special Ammo generation bar is really cool. It takes alot of kills, objectives, damage given and taken, but it gives you 3-4 special ammo shots when it fills, and you keep them through death. They feel very special indeed, and I don't want to waste them. It also means more jousting gunfights with primaries instead of special ammo spam. This also has the side effect of making people clump up, so grenades are pretty powerful when used to break up groups, even if the regen for them is halved.
    -The slowed ability sandbox actually feels pretty OK. Its nice to have much less grenade spam, less Barricade spam, etc etc etc. They're all more valuable now, don't waste them. Though its hard to get a Super some games. I'm also not sure about the melee damage right now, but that may just be my muscle memory messing me up. Healing Grenades and Overshields are incredibly powerful.
    - I kinda hated the weapon sandbox damage tweaks at first, because I didn't understand them yet. I think I like them a bit more after about 10 games. What I think happens in Checkmate is we get more HP (I'd guess somewhere around 220-230). Crit damage goes up, so we can still optimal TTK people in about the same-ish time as before (slightly slower in some instances), but body shot damage is way less impactful. This means that most meta guns kill in the same amount of time, but all the emphasis is put on landing your crits, and bodyshots are more punishing.
    - This, together with less special ammo, turns it into a mode that is a little bit slower. Gunfights can take longer, and people are holding hands more. But really punishes people who miss their crits. I think I like that... It felt really weird for Sidearms to feel so low in damage, but then I remembered there's much less shotgun and fusion rifle ammo to counter them! I think Traveler's Chosen could be powerful in this slow ability economy. However I think 120 handcannons are a bit OP in this mode. They seem to be just as forgiving and high-range as normal with basically no drawbacks... Or maybe its just Igneous Hammer (Adept) being such a stat monster in a dueling-focused mode? Eh. Also I think Fighting Lion might be a problem. It feels like it chunks harder than an infinite ammo GL should.
    I'll play lots more to gather better feedback. There's lots of testing to be done, and other weird things to check out (Does Sunshot need 3C 1B to kill now, or was that just Titan Resil talking???) but so far, first impressions are good!

      Healing and overshields OP
      120 handcannons GG EZ OP
      Fighting Lion sorta OP
      Melees feel really weak
      People starting to clump up, feels bad

      @blufferoniandcheese3628 they nerfed body shot dmg from primaries cool. HCs have High AA with what they already do since they are burst weapons. Its way easier to kill ppl because of that. You're Lightweight pulse hits 1 bullet on the body your ttk is shifted and you lost

    • @Daytimeprophet3
      @Daytimeprophet3 8 місяців тому +1

      @VAVORiAL they nerfed the forgiveness on other primaries. In alot of cases if you can aim you're better off using a HC because it's better to miss a bullet vs a a bullet from a burst of stream hitting the body and not a crit

    • @nirifer7275
      @nirifer7275 8 місяців тому +3

      ​@Daytimeprophet3 I disagree, missing a bullet with a hc is the difference between you winning and losing the gun fight. Especially with a 120. A hc is supposed to reward the players with good aim and percision. Idk what you expect them to do. Making it a 4 shot kill instead of 3 would make them literally unusable.

    I love the special ammo stuff and slower ability regen ALOT. But the longer TTK is a miss for, its already turned into teamshoot or lose and the body shot damage reduction kinda kills any full auto weapon from being effective. Would love to see this with normal HP and damage scaling. Also fighting lion is for degenerates.

      Its about making a conscious choice to build into it. There are many autos better than Monte Carlo that don't need the exotic slot, but in a slow ability regen mode like this, its very meaningful. It becomes a genuine build and playstyle choice instead of a cherry on top that might not normally be useful or necessary.
