The server lag can't be helped otherwise Bungie would need to completely remodel the net code. We have to wait until Destiny 2.

  • that will be one of the key selling points for me for destiny 2. i've played bungie games since LAN competitions in halo 1 because i like the physics and gameplay bungie creates but even back to halo 2 they always have had lag. back then we can chock it up to primitive internet but now there's just no reason for it. they could have at least implemented regional matchmaking so we arent playing apes from 3rd world countries. i got destiny because i was excited bungie was coming out with this massive title, open world, all fancy things, it is still an amazing game but certainly smaller than it was made out to be. i have hopes for destiny 2 since it wont be on old consoles but i most likely wont be pre-ordering it or getting it if they cant get a handle on connectivity because it ruins the ability to truly enjoy pvp for myself and many others

It's why I'm not going to preorder the dlc. Hell I might never buy it or I might buy in February-May because that is usually when there is a lull in video games. It all really depends on if BUNGIE decides to get dedicated servers. I got the taste of dedicated servers on StarWars BattleFront and The Division haven't looked back to Destiny. Dedicated servers have a huge difference in play. It's so smooth connection wise. To many games have done this P2P2S/P2P setup and I hate it every time. I'm never playing with anyone that is every remotely close to me so someone usually suffers connection issues and it is usually hurts everyone in the group. I'm done with online games unless they use dedicated servers now.

  • [quote]i've had several friends leave to star wars and say the connection is so much better they wont even play pvp on this game now[/quote] It is vastly improved over Destiny P2P2S setup. They do use servers don't get me wrong on that. But everyone in the lobby of up to 12 people have to send and receive information through one guys upload connection. Thus lag is incredibly increased and what you do has to register to the guy who is hosting then information is sent to the server and back through the guy to whoever you're trying to kill. This is also why Destiny is capped at 30 FPS. That way less information is sent and received faster. At 60FPS the game would be completely unplayable 90% of the time.
