Not true (Destiny)
I always try to capture the relic. I've also never lost a game.
There are elements of Slayer, sure, in that ultimately if you can't shoot good you're going to underperform. But a coordinated group will get plenty of points from captures, and use the relic to bait the enemy into coming at you.
All this "never capture the relic" nonsense comes from people who are bad at playing the objective. If youre bad at playing the objective, yeah, youre gonna have a bad time trying to do so, and you're better served playing Slayer. But it's not the only way.
My post was mainly made in jest because that seems to be the only way to win.
Looking at your Salvage history on Destiny Tracker shows you play this game differently then most people. It looks like you always play in a team of 3 with your clan mates. Plus at least one person on the other team is a fellow clan mate also. Not sure if you only do clan games or what? But your history is different from anyone else I've seen.
As with most 3v3 playlists, if you go in with a team of 3 that you are used to playing with you are more likely to have a better chance at winning. If you join in a match solo for the daily for instance, no team chat + people you don't normally play with then it's essentially just a free-for-all match with no one helping each other out. I can't tell you how often the revives just don't happen when playing with Randos. Also, people just randomly decide to cap the point when no one else is around and then feed the other team kills and a disable.
It's pretty much not worth playing solo if you want to win.
Since there is so little communication when playing with randos then typically the best strategy is to just not play the objective and work on kills and disables.
Edit* There could be something weird with DT that is making it look like you are always playing with a clan.
