GUARDIANS OF DESTINY 2!!! Do you feel GUARDIANS ARE MOSTLY TOXIC or FRIENDLY?
What has your experience been? There seems to be a split in the community, with some players complaining that there is a very large snobbish “Elitist” group within Destiny (not a specific group but in general) who block the way for other guardians with less than perfect stats or who are “noobs” trying to learn the raids or get into Trials. The claim is that this group is the larger group and that the community of Destiny is overall extremely toxic.
Conversely, there is another group of players who claim their experience within Destiny has been the opposite: mostly positive. They claim although they have run into toxic players on occasion, it is easy enough to avoid or leave them for the most part, and find other much friendlier Guardians for help. They claim there are a lot of friendly Guardian groups out there from all different backgrounds and skill levels willing to help less knowledgeable Guardians acquire the skills, gear, or knowledge they need to participate in endgame activities such as Trials and raids.
My personal 6 year journey within Destiny has been experienced as overall friendly and non-toxic. I love the Guardians of Destiny, and I have met some of the best and most amazingly skilled players ever here. Please let me know what you think!

Eh, it's a half and half. People I find off of lfg are mostly friendly and chill. People in Trials or any form of "competitive game mode" on the other hand are the most toxic players I've ever encountered.

1 ResponderPersonally haven’t had any toxic encounters on lfg. Everyone has one goal in mind and that’s to finish the activity we are currently doing. I’ve lfg’d for all the raids including d1 raids and have not seen someone toxic. I’ve also lfg’d for trials and have had good results, I’ve even made a few friends there. Overall not bad at all.

1 ResponderWhen my clan was active I was invited to raid often, and when I wasn't a high enough light level they helped me get there. This ended after the first raid of d2 with calus, because nobody plays anymore lol.

I take emoting and teabagging as entertainment. I dont take it as offensive. And everyone ive become friends with are always helpful. Its usually when I go into random runs trying to help sherpas and the noobies cant run well is when the toxic comes out. That or just plain cheaters in trials. Thats toxic. But 80% of my time spent has been positive
-
1 ResponderFrom my experience actually playing the game? Mostly friendly. When looking at this absolute cesspool of a forum? Mostly toxic
-
Guardians are fed up with “Bungie” ruining the game and the experience. It’s not “Toxic” it’s “Hate”
-
Almost every single person that in the top 1000 speed rank are toxic. Majority of them are Litterrally 5 year old toddlers that throw temper tantrums.

Editado por Swiftlock: 7/31/2020 1:39:20 AMIt's not a matter of "the community is X". We are all individuals. There will always be jerks. There will always be nice people. If you are primarily toxic, you will get toxicity in return, one way or another. If you are proactively positive, then that positivity will come back to you. That's what we have to remember.

In-game players are generally fine. To be honest, I'm probably one of the toxic ones because I'm normally having a go at an idiot Titan for messing up mechanics after explaining 5 times, or someone running off to speed run a strike and they keep dying because they're not very good. Generally speaking though, the game is fine. I regularly come across people I have a laugh and banter with. A guy earlier on was in the Strike playlist with me for well over an hour and we had a good laugh in chat. On the forum though? Even Chernobyl is less toxic than this place.

in game friendly , and forum well is toxic/troll simulator

1 ResponderDepends really, I’ve met some really cool people on lfg, and I’ve met some pathetic individuals there too, I’ve trolled a few times on salty posts but overall the forums are decent besides the few who are elitist, people who post about adding/removing things from the game to get validation but get salty when someone has a differing opinion etc. I still find the CoD community way more toxic, and the battlefield community way more elitist. [spoiler]some folks just take this game way too seriously[/spoiler]

3 RespostasInternet brings out the best of both or worst depending on how you want to look at it. Game is irrelevant, it's just about people being online. IRL people are generally nice due to our basic survival instincts, but being online seems to break that.
-
1 ResponderMostly friendly. Some people just like to use the term toxic to stereotype a large group of individuals and it makes no sense. There are of course a small minority of individuals who are disruptive, abusive, or exploitive. This happens in every gathering of humans, especially online.

As with every gaming community, everyone looks out for themselves. If it’s outside the game, people are charitable to worthy causes anyways. Bungie and virtually any other company, get tax write offs for simply having their name attached to these big events. Kinda hilarious that the left coast hate the big scary rich dudes, but gleefully help them get richer. Fight the man! ✊🏻

2 RespostasForums: toxic on both the pro and anti Bungo side In game (PvE): not that bad. I think it comes down to “actually KWTD” and not KWTD. That’s how it’s been for me with LFG. If I join a fireteam with KWTD in the title, chances are that they don’t have patience for a blueberry, but will if a mistake happens but you “ACTUALLY KWTD.”

Pvp - a little toxic Pve - friendly

Mostly friendly but when you encounter those being toxic oh boy are they toxic as -blam!- !

1 ResponderMostly friendly. But there's always that one dude...

3 RespostasIts a human thing, not a guardian thing. Some people are good. Some people are not. Some people care about others. Some people dont. Some people give. Some feel entitled to be carried through.

1 ResponderI play with my clan for raids, so I don't do LFG, but for matchmade activities, I see a lot of toxic players. The number one that comes to mind is players rushing through strikes, either ignoring every enemy that they don't have to kill, or killing everything before I get there, just because I started the strike 30 seconds later due to slow spawn in. When those enemies are part of the weekly "kill 150 Fallen" strike bounty, it's really annoying, because either every enemy is dead when I get there, or I get pulled to the next area. Then, there's Gambit and Crucible, where players bail when their team is losing. Yeah, it's no fun to lose, but finish the activity. I had one Control match where my team was down 34 to 6 almost instantly, and we came back to win, because nobody bailed. I had one Survival (Freelance) match where one player was AFK for the first two rounds, and we got slaughtered. I don't know what the issue was, but he came back in the 3rd round, and we won the match, because nobody bailed. As for public events...if you know what to do and see somebody doing the things to make it go heroic, help them. Don't just melt the boss, or kill enemies you shouldn't. Last, if there is a "high-value target nearby", know what bounties Spider is selling that week. If the target isn't on the list, go ahead and melt it...the XP is no big deal, and anybody can open the crate. But, if it's a Wanted bounty, check to see if other players are around...do some damage and wait until you know if somebody else needs the bounty before finishing them off.

1 ResponderThere should really be an in between option.

Editado por Sweet Lew 88: 7/28/2020 4:54:30 PMI find that the people I run into on lfg are mostly helpful and friendly. I find the forum has a lot of trolls. I've beaten all of the raids for the first time in lfg teams

It's a tale of two worlds. In game, friendly. In these forums ... well, get your rabies shot. I remember that mission where I fought the mad bomber, and had to defuse that first mine. Suddenly everyone on the map stopped and ran over to kick the crap out of the Scorn. Later on, I had to go out there for a public event, and saw someone else on that mission -- all of us ran over and kicked the crap out of the Scorn. There's apparently a willingness to help random strangers out. But then, I come here? There are bright spots, but there's at least one major bunghole -- I can't 'shame' someone for doing things that are wrong, of course, so I can't 'name' someone with a screen name much like a famous child star from the old days who later became a US ambassador -- anyway, there's one major bunghole I've seen here who does nothing but the Seagull maneuver: flies in, craps all over everything, flies away. Meanwhile, there was this funny, if somewhat bathroom humor type thread that got censored--all while this little creep is free to turn the entire forum into their personal toilet bowl. So I'm not quite sure where priorities lie. [i]Go ahead and try, buddy, I'm sitting here like a crocodile.[/i]

Toxicity is mostly based on skill level. If you aren’t very good you will encounter more toxic people with lfg because most people are expecting everyone to know their job and do it perfectly. It really depends what side of the skill spectrum you sit on as to whether you will find yourself having positive experiences with lfg, which is something most don’t seem to grasp since they are above the skill threshold where they will run into this. If you want to test this go ahead and join a raid group and start dying and you will prove me right in the vast majority of cases since the majority of toxic players start harassing people over perceived failures whether intentional or otherwise. Raids really bring this out in people since almost all of them are set up where 1 person is all that is needed to repeatedly cause team wipes. A lesser portion of people are toxic for the sake of being toxic and will just harass someone because of the way the speak, their name, something they said, etc.
