Supremacy & gambit nearly pushed me to uninstall 2 weeks ago, 20 min mm times n then a mix of elites & clueless new players. I've never experienced anything like it in 10 years.
I knew mm times would improve after GG ended bcoz whatever they implemented for that affect the entire game (it always does even going back to SRL) & they did, I played 9-10 mayhem last n mm was fast, connections where ok.
It's getting to the stage of struggling games where if you play outside peak hours you're gonna struggle to have a good time.
I'd guess your issues where bcoz of low population, bungie forgot what fun is, & mayhem is the best we have (if you ignore the constant stasis storms & turrets), sparrow control is a joke, it's PvP & you can use your sparrow like wtf, it doesn't even make sense. Also people seem to hate the new sandbox & it's month 7 of the season, no real reason to even touch PvP.
I'm genuinely concerned about the future, so many things returning, 2 whole streams & 1 to come & everything is returning stuff, I can't believe they're this limited & people just arent excited, I guess more & more players just aren't coming back, & this is a part of the problem.

I think that sparrow control probably has a really low player count because many players are in Mayhem this week. Its a breath of fresh air after a few weeks of MM issues due to the event. I played nothing but Mayhem yesterday, and very few connection issues, and had fast queue times. Some games launched with maybe 1 minute sitting in orbit.

I got it done bcoz I needed witherhoard catalyst n you get 2 anmo every respawn :) I did ticcus too, now just Lorentz driver. You're right, like I said earlier, people enjoy the mindless fun n there's not much in this game anymore.
