Clash > Momentum Control
Momentum control is unbalanced, I get that's the point but why swap out the only other enjoyable game mode for it.

Now I have to wait god knows how long for it to return.
Back to control I guess; the only other decent mode except without any team play...

Momentum control and team scorched are so overrated. It's like gambit, only a few masochists play it:steambored:

I love Momentum Control, gives everyone quick kills so easy to complete Catalysts.

This. And for grinding things that require guardian kills. Was a life saver getting mountaintop.

You know you can get Mountain Top from the Exotic Kiosk don't you?

Momentum Control puts pvp in a good spot imo, it takes out the ability for people, especially hunters to just p ussy foot away because their shield broke. the only thing is doesnt stop is people who arent very mechanically skilled still use unbalaced BS guns but thats just destiny pvp

Mayhem -> Momentum control -> Every other pvp mode.

Just my 2 cents.

You know that wasn't always a thing don't you? I'm talking about back when you had to grind to get it.

I dunno, all 3 of the classes have some BS to them.

Yeah, it's horrifically unbalanced. That's basically why I hate it. Getting one shot from DMT the moment you peek a corner is not fun. Also everyone uses the same 3 guns... it's so unfun.

Like I get some people are saying it's for catalysts and what not but why switch the only other good gamemode out for it. Seems like a massive step backwards to me.

momentum is the most fun PVP mode by far imo

So a fair TTK is poor skill?
I dunno, I think that argument could be applied the other way around tbh. It's easy to hit one shot, but to actually have to outplay the other person? Nah that's just poor skill amirite...

"fair ttk" = 'I need to be able to tank 500 shots from someone better than me because I can't hit my first one'

your logic is totally broken and excuses bad play, if someone can hit you first accurately before you can, of course they can do it a second time, hit your shots better
That's just silly because with some weapons TTK is basically just reaction time, as long as you hit it's a guaranteed kill within 0.1 seconds. That's not hard to do.

It annoys me that when I turn a corner it's just insta death, just as I am sure that others don't like that either.

Having higher TTKs means it gives both players a chance at the fight. Even if I get the jump on someone I want the player I am up against to feel like they have a fair chance at winning. Sure it's nice being able to hipfire 1-shot my DMT from across the map but it's cheap and requires no skill at all.

It also makes some weapons completely outmatched like SMGs or Assault Rifles.

If you disagree then that's fine but you can't be serious that you think it's unskilled to have fair 1v1 duels. Those are the fairest fights of all. If you can't win those then... I don't really know what to say. get gud I guess?

again just making excuses for your bad aim, hitting a smaller target faster with less shots than someone else takes more skill than hitting a larger one slower with more shots, if you can't do that faster then them it's just your bad aim

if you need to rely on things like auto fire weapons, abilities, the nonsensical jumping around with stompeez or something, and abusing the awful latency problems then you would probably get decimated at almost any other fps outside this one which just exposes you can't aim well
No arguments presented. Just baseless defamation. I don't really care what you think, enjoy the game how you like and keep patting yourself on the back. I just disagree with you and I don't think you have the arguments capable of convincing me otherwise.

Don't get me wrong, being able to hit a shot does require skill, but I think that being able to hit MORE than one shot while putting yourself in an equally challenged fight requires more skill.

i think they really need to nerf or just take out the auto tracking abilities and guns. its legit just a crutch for people.

True, I'd like to see them test with a gamemode where abilities and supers are disabled and everyone is given the same armour stats. I think that would make the gamemode both very competitive and fair.

Not sure if it'd work in the long run or if people would enjoy it but it'd be interesting to find out.
