The toxicity of lfg VoG teams
It’s bad enough the changes they made with the oracles but the toxicity and elitism of people in these lfg groups is unbelievable. My clan was short 2 guys so we ended up using lfg and found some people to fill the spots. These 2 guys said they had an Atheon checkpoint and ask if we could start there and they’d help us with the beginning parts after so we agreed.
Now this was our very first time in the raid learning everything and these guys had already played and made it to Atheon. So we start and their we a few mistakes but after a while we were getting the hang of stuff. All of a sudden these guys say um I don’t think we will get this done the damage isn’t enough. Now these guys were putting out similar to less damage than everyone else and were making mistakes as well. They just continued to be negative and no longer wanted to help anymore. It’s just ridiculous how people just don’t have the patience anymore to figure out where the mistakes lie, correct it and keep pushing. They rather be negative, create tension and anxiety. People want to beat the raid just as badly as these elitist pricks. Thus why raid should’ve stayed the same as it was in D1 and challenge mode should’ve had the changes.

Most were pretty civil about things but when the wipes got too many you could tell people were getting pissed with each other. Instead of helping people we just start getting critical and harsh with each other. There’s the know-it all’s - who are great at telling you what to do and commenting how easy things are only to try it themselves and be just as bad or worse. Really annoying. Then you’ve got the encyclopedia- who thinks they know everything about everything and is not afraid to correct you or give an earful as to why you suck. This game promotes an elitism that is very discouraging. Day one raids should actually be the easiest and most accessible so that ANYONE can do it. Then after everyone has some loot THEN turn on the contest mode and have your race. Make it stupid hard. Have some fun with it. Bungie is terrible at actually maintaining a player base. In gambit we fight each other for motes, fight the adds and fight invaders. Not fun. In strikes we fight for kills. And in day one raids we fight against each other for failing something we just attempted. This game could do so much to promote unity and a sense of community but continue to just make it elitist and exclusive.
