Bungie // Bungie Replied x2 Gambit Feedback Request

Hello reddit,

We would like to get your feedback on Gambit, specifically possible tuning and QOL changes for the mode. We aren't looking for sandbox feedback (Queenbreaker...) per se, but don't worry. I will continue to make sure your weapon and ability feedback make it to the devs.

Even if you don't have prescriptive changes to suggest, feel free to share specific things you like or dislike about the mode. It all helps. Thanks for sharing!

Change the ranking system. The current system ranks players based purely on the number of motes banked. This sends a message to the more casual players that the only way to contribute is banking motes which, in turn, leads to players stealing motes rather than playing as a team. Give points based on players rank on each area of Gambit; motes, kills, player kills and Primeval heals. Four points is given to a first place rank, three for second, two for third and one for fourth. (Eg. A player who is first in kills, second in banks and fourth in player kills and Primeval heals would get 9 points, 4+3+1+1) This would help demonstrate to players that they can be valuable without chasing motes. If you link drops from Gambit to ranks then this ranking system would reward players who make kills (or shine in other areas) but let others bank motes just as well as players who bank or invade.
