Inexperienced players stuck for hours in Nightfall activities.
Hello, today I went to do a Nightfall in the easiest difficulty because it was helping a new light and then the seeker put us in a game already underway, but what surprised me was that when I entered the game, the only player there was a new light and he was more than 1hour and 40 minutes in the match.(I recorded the gameplay to check the total time of the match)
So I decided to do a test, lowered my power below 2000, equip parts with power 1900, which I have in my safe and I went to do the same Nightfall, then the search engine put me with players of equivalent power between 1930 and 1960
I tested 3 matches and in all 3, the players were below the required power, alone and in two of these matches, these players in it for about 1 to 2 hours in the match, without any stronger player enter.
Don’t know if it’s intentional, but it seems to me that the searchers are only pairing players with equivalent power, leaving "New Light" players stuck for hours in these activities, just like it happened in Xur’s activity from the birthday pack.

1 ReplyThis was insane to try out, I did 10 Nightfalls at 1994 power as that was as low as I could go since I have been upgrading all my vault every time I get a Pinnacle drop, and almost every game I was with other 199X players, but I did see a handful of higher level players. I did another 6 at my normal level and sure enough, every game was around my same level. Not even a single 199X which I was playing with over the past few hours. It is absolutely criminal how poorly this works. Bungie should be ashamed of themselves with how badly their code is. Between this, flawed Events, broken Tonics, Weightgate, and who knows what else we haven't confirmed yet, they just need to drop everything they are doing and have everyone go through this game to fix the game rather than adding anything new to try and "win" us back.
