I talked about this long back. I noticed as soon as I paired up with a buddy who was of twice the KD I was drug into matches just as described. These things are being totally ignored which is exactly what Bungie always does when they have totally screwed up. So now you don't just need friends in the game you have to have friends of exactly the same skill or someone will have an awful experience all the time. This damn participation trophy society we are building is dumb as it gets.
