Current state of the Crucible is absolutely ridiculous (The one about the lag).

I have no idea how many things have gone wrong with this patch, but the lag in the Crucible is worse than ever before. Iron Banner can be described as lag free, in comparison. The matchmaking seems to be fundamentally broken, as every lobby I am in either has at least 3 red bars, 6 yellow bars or everyone is yellow bar. Shots take forever to register, melee charges are getting consumed, yet no damage is being dealt. Bullets simply disappear (some call them phantom bullets). I am getting sniped, yet no lense flare shows up (or the last 40 people are apparently the best quickscopers in Destiny). People do not appear on the Radar, even though they aren't invisible. Getting killed through walls is also a new favourite pastime of mine. PvP is currently pretty broken, in terms of connection quality. Edit: Thanks for all the replies, up votes and agreement. It's very reassuring when a lot of people experience similar things. Something went horribly wrong with this patch, concerning the connection quality and hit detection of melee attacks.

  • The worst is when you play trials and the last guy alive is a red bar, he hits you and then you kill him only to die right at the beginning of the next round

      • Very true. I'm doing a lag montage next week. Could've been a trilogy the length of LOTR.

        • lost count how many games I've played usually 6v6 is the worst culprit but the players that are usually on top score wise are red bar. A stormcaller during super with red bar is disgusting theres jack shit you can do about them.

        • My biggest peeve is when I punch a guy once in the back and bring him to low health then punch him again but it doesn't register and he turns around and kills me with a shotgun

            • Everyone who whines about lag needs to first examine their own setup. DONT GIVE ME THAT. I know you have an awesome deal through your ISP, netting you hundreds of Mb/s. What about your router? Is that on the same channel as all your neighbors? Is your computer on and downloading updates? Your phone? Your sisters phone? Wifes phone? How many people in your neighborhood have internet through the same company? How many of them are watching netflix? Playing games? Downloading updates? All these things can muck with your connection, so before you whine about bungie, Check your own setup.

              • do not describe even on Xbox 360 in recent weeks what has become for me the crucible, activision wants to kill this game to increase sales of cod, which just happens to have done me up for the lag of destiny after its release, I open parenentesi also if an event of fun as racing goshawks scripted, where the game already allows choosing potential winners even before departure, where my goshawk is subject to the slightest touch makes me end up in the walls, while my sportellate not move nobody.

              • Its worse when people are lagging even though everyone in the lobby is showing green connections. And melees not doing damage or lagging people away from you.

                • ***Sidenote: Before I jump into this, I want to point out I'm a pretty sick PVP player (mainly FPS) and I'm THAT GUY that'll dominate lobby after lobby, most likely making you find excuses as to why you died at my hands ([b]no e-brag, srs[/b]). I'm only saying this as to provide reliability of whatever I have to say. Now onto my point. When I read threads like this and see ppl complaining about lag/connection in PVP, I take a quick glance at how long they've been playing the game and their KD. That [i]usually[/i] serves as an indicator if the person is accredited in making a legit case or if they suck balls and just won't admit it. Normally, it's the latter that stands correct. [b]HOWEVER[/b], this is probably one of the few times where I have to reside with the "majority" on this issue, and DEFINITELY reside w/ OP. Almost everything I read from OP has happened to me. Not 1, 2, or 3 things; almost EVERYTHING. And it's happened ever since update 2.1.0 dropped. I just wanna note that It's eerily weird to have read that list of problems bc I honestly thought I wrote that and just didn't know it lol. I have never really complained about PVP in Destiny ever since I started this game a while ago. Sure, there were a few problems in isolated matches, but it sure as hell wasn't as frequent and consistent as it is NOW. Before update 2.1.0, I was hitting so many streaks of 30+ kills per game, 10-15 games straight. I did it during the era of handcannons, I did it during the previous patch as well. But now for the past week, the only sense of accomplishment I would get is getting a 5 kill streak in a single match and hoping to hit close to a 2.0. Oh how I missed Shaxx's voice when he bellows out, "I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I'M SEEING", or "THIS IS AMAZING". Hell, I miss my favorite caption when it pops up on the bottom of the screen: "Someone should do something about Why U Mirin...". [b]BUNGIE[/b], I really hope you read this. This is a bold statement, and this is a very very seldom thing I'm about to say. I normally don't do this, but I [b]110% VOUCH [/b] for what people had to say in this thread. I love Destiny's PVP. I mainly play PVP, only doing PVE to farm good stuff for PVP lol. But recently, this update screwed up something and PVP players, no matter trash or awesome, have become highly discouraged and distraught. How do I know this? Because if I have become discouraged and distraught, match after match, then the casual player probably had their fist thru their tv screen. I have a feeling that if yall can correct the lag/connection stuff and either augment it OR return it before the 2.1.0 update, most of these reoccurring problems will go away and the bad and good players can resume their roles. Please, Bungie, allocate more time into correcting it. As aforementioned, I don't really agree w/ mostly "not good" players when it comes to the PVP experience, but they have a point. And this point should be highly prioritized and addressed.

                    • Dude, jt is completely broken. Im not very good at crucible but ive always enjoyed it anyway. I can't enjoy it now, like at all. Im getting some kills where i can be standing right in front of somebody and they dont even see me. And likewise, i can be killed by someone then they appear after im dead. Its just a crap shoot now, whoever has the better connection at that very second wins. Its ridiculous. Im trying to the 7 kill spree for the first curse bounty at the moment. Its juat -blam!-ing impossible. Ill get to 4 by killing red bars on the other team, then the scales tip and its all my team is barred.

                      • Bro, Bungie tweeted out that the player population is so low in crucible right now that matchmaking isn't working right. There was no change to the algorithm, people just aren't playing anymore. Low playlist population means the game is finally dying. Good news though, halo 5 is working great and the free updates just keep coming!

                        • Sadly, Bungie does not care. It is their ridiculous matchmaking that brings the worst possible connections together. Combined with the extremely bad net code, it makes for nothing but a bad experience. And the funny thing is, it is the one thing they have not even attempted to fix since day one.

                          • Hit registration is unbelievably bad. It's infuriating. If they were trying to forge a more competitive landscape with their matchmaking changes, they failed miserably.

                          • I don't know what system you play on, but the lag on PS3 is out of this world. So ridiculous. Either everyone on there has Walmart Internet or PS plus is just terrible for that console.

                              • I have encounter the same problems but since TTK came out. I have been playing Destiny since alpha with same ISP and same internet speed and it wasn't after TTK that i started getting red bar/lag issues. They have made me believe that it is my internet connection but after reading this post and all its replies, i feel way better. Not touching PvP anymore anyway.

                              • This has been the case for me since TTK dropped, other than iron banner I refuse to play PvP, some games I have amazing bullet reg (almost too much) and other games nothing registers and I often get killed through walls. I'd rather not play if whether I win or not comes down to whether the server is on my side or not, never played a game as bad.
