I disagree that it's unfun or lopsided; I usually enjoy it, win or lose.

This might also provide some insight into why we don't have CTF. A fast sprinting blinking hunter flag carrier might just be too much.

Why not just make it so the flag carrier can't double jump? ... Admittedly I think there are more balance issues to be resolved. Also, I wonder if Bungie has just decided these other game modes are more fun than CTF, or that the effort vs reward isn't worth it for CTF. <shrugs>

All I know is that there are no pure objective gametypes in Destiny. I blame defender Titans.

Damn bruh. 3 inactives?

What do these people do? Just go into match making then on their 'sneakers' and go for a nice walk outside?

Jeez people.

I believe they are hunting for pokemon these days.

Spoof your GPS coordinates and save yourself the grind.

The scoring says you should only capture with all your team present, which also makes it easier to defend since you are all together watching the point. Otherwise, if one of the other team is capturing it, don't rush, group up and take him out plus decap.

This gets around the big problem in other location capture game types (like COD headquarters mode), where one team gets wiped, the capture point moves, and the winning team is closer due to the nature of the spawn points to the new hq and can get to it first.

it is less important to get to the capture point first, then it is to move with your group and take control of the area AS A GROUP.

Because of this you really can't play it with rando calrisan and his buddy the lone ranger.

Either play by the "broken" rules (at which point it basically turns into Clash), or get a team together who understand how to play salvage AS A TEAM.

The vast majority of Salvage complaints I see come from people who've been unlucky enough to have bad teammates. And that's unfortunate, but the same thing happens in Clash, or control, or any other gametype.

The problem with Salvage is that Joe Random doesn't seem to understand it's a team game. You get more points by capturing together. So either play with a friend (just one should be enough. Always has been for me) or stick with your random.

I know, why would you do that? He's dumb. He's running around on his own instead of sticking with you. He probably thinks the same thing about you.

Even if he's terrible, the worst that can happen is you've got an extra gun in the fight, or an extra distraction for them to be aiming at. Plus those bonus cpature points.

I'm trying really hard not to be all "get gud", but I literally don't understand the near-universal Salvage hate. I've never played a game of Salvage where I didn't try to capture every single relic. Even with randoms.
