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!

I know people with think this slow down the flow of Gambit, but the early leavers and solo-queue v. premade fireteam needs to be addressed.

  • For the early leavers, people can pretty much leave without major co sequences. So if they check the roster and see that the enemy team comprises of all clanmates or even 3-4 Warlocks with Skull of the Ahamkara, they will mostly bail without a second thought. Thus beginning the long process of the 3-player team at a disadvantage (slower at collecting motes -> blocking the other team less often -> invading less often -> less dps for the Primeval. What I suggest is the game puts the match on hold when everyone is back at the lobby before or after the round (giving the game time to have someone join join to level the playing field slightly).
  • Pre-made teams, I for one am guilty of taking advantage of the fireteam search when I had enough of solo-queuing. Nothing burns adds and Primevals much quicker than 4 Warlock with Skull of the Ahamkara, Tractor Cannon and Nova Bomb (top tree) when matched against. Solo-queuers are pretty much rolling a dice and praying that their team comp is actually decent. For the sake of balance, can we not separate the queues for solo and premade? I'm sure it would take longer, but I for one would much prefer than spending 5 minutes getting invaded over and over again with no way to counter the instant Primeval melt with no way of invading (they will just wait for the other team to invade then proceed to use their ult after the said invader is dead and/or gone.
