Commendations are Sandbagging Solo Players

I play mostly solo. I'm the only player in my clan that hasn't left the game. I don't have a regular fireteam and I dislike LFG. Grouping up with random people usually means dealing with toxic players. I've literally had a guy tell me I should quit the game because he was pissed off about me dying in Duality. If I can do something solo then that's how I play. But now my "guardian ranks" progress is tied to commendations which I only get when playing matchmade content. If they're going to tie progress in G-ranks to commendations then there should be one for players that run solo content. Make it a category unto it's own. Call it "Lone Wolf" or some -blam!-. One commendation for every solo completed activity. It wouldn't be broken or exploitable, and actually be slower in progress than every source of commendations. It would provide feedback to other players about someone's playstyle (which is what I thought these were supposed to be for in the first place). I've been playing lightfall consistently since launch. I've got a commendations score of about 220. At this rate it's gonna be another month before I hit rank 7 and I've finished every other task. Even solo flawlessed a lost sector before they moved it to rank 8. I've got more than a half a million career kills. I just want to see some progress.

  • Hate to tell ya this but....game is near death. All of this bs, from woke ranks to crucible dropping modes when others are active are because NO ONE is playing this game anymore. Most log in the 1st 4 to 6 weeks if a season the bail but this bs they sold everyone has that same mass expdux plus some leaving FIRST WEEK. Its why they opened all strand early and why they kill game modes as there arent eniugh players anymore. The woke ranks was to force solos into content to lower matching times and get thier pretty bs charts to for thier lie. Ranks are a woke parade..why??? No negatives. Cant say nothing bad to anyone even when they are trash which is why its all just a useless time sink and one i would say avoid. Why do it..? For a number beside your name until end of season because oh yeah guess what?? It resets so you cant to do it all over again just so new players done feel left out and get their fake participation trophy. The devs here were the people who couldnt ever make the team, last picked in dodgeball, never got the hot girlfriend and but instead git the leftovers and were picked on and most likely were all the jocks fan club ....now they want thier perfect little world...to bad the world doesnt work that way.
