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.

  • ***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.
