Iron Banner Issue/Complaint

Normally I like Iron Banner...pretty much the only PvP event I bother to participate in. But when crap like this happens, it gets super frustrating. I start in a match hoping to score a win and hit Rank 4 in Iron Banner. But low and behold...I get put on a team with two other people against an entire full team of 6. And with most of the enemy team running around shotgunning constantly; one guy even had two shotguns (Universal Remote and one in his special weapons slot) soon, the two people I were matched with pretty much gave up. About 4-5 minutes in, they both proceed to simply just stand there and become free kills to the other team. At around the half way point, a 4th person joined out team but quickly left...I guess because he seen how stomped we were getting. In the end, I managed to net 18 kills but it was nowhere near enough to get our score close to the enemy team's. To top it all off, for at least attempting to hold my own against an entire team alone, I get 0 rewards while the other two on my team both got two rewards each. I am trying to give PvP more attention but when stuff like this happens more and more where I get put on the shorted team with players that just give up in the middle of the match...it starts to drive me away from the PvP aspect more and more when I really want to try and keep at it. I can't be the only person who has had this happen to them before...and not just in an important event like Iron Banner but in regular PvP as well.

  • If your matching up to tougher players try lowering your light level. I noticed when I bumped up from 334 to 335 there was a difference in the level of players skill I was playing against. I also noticed that I had the same senerio as you did getting in a game that was already started and getting matched with a team that was rather weak compared to the other team. My initial urge was to go to orbit and rematch another game but I held off. After a game or two things got really balanced out and we had some very close games with each team winning a few. This happened a few times when I got online to play IB Don't jump the gun, give matchmaking a game or two to balance the teams before going to orbit.
