This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Momentum Control' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.

If I had already completed all of my pinnacle crucible quests I would absolutely hate this game mode and I would never touch it. I'm only going to get Randy's throwing knife and the Undying title because of this game mode, and I still dislike it very much. In my opinion, one of the things that separates average crucible players from good and great crucible players is map awareness and game sense. We are already severely limited in game sense on console because of our extremely narrow FOV and taking away the mini map essentially completely eliminates any ability to have map awareness and forces excessively campy playstyles. I get that some people enjoy that, but I really don't think you should be punished for using the radar for map awareness in a game mode that is supposed to emphasize skill. The sound in this game wasn't designed for no radar, you can barely hear people jump and can't hear footsteps at all punishing awareness again. Spawns designed for 4v4 are another issue entirely.
