Iron Banner is so laggy. Bungie, you really need to look at regional locks on matchmaking. Some argue low population as the motivation for not implementing regional locks. However, for me, I just log out. I just played 2 or 3 matches, and ALL were laggy. Bungie, as a company you should be embarrassed at the state of your game.

Its always been something that I've seen a little bit here and there, just the normal stuff every game gets, then there's this week... The lag is horrible, ever since the update, Tuesday. I've personally never had these connection issues in this game, or at least thry weren't noticeable, and the matches are noticeably different from first IB week this season too. It seems like they tweaked matchmaking, made it worse, and broke something in the process because I can only do a couple of rounds before I just can't deal with it. I hate it. I'd like to enjoy I.B. like the first week but I don't think its going to happen. Either a ton of people discovered some new way trying to exploit lag to try and gain advantage, or Bungie does what they do best and broke something. Seems like players are 2-3 seconds out of sync, some even freezing mid jump in the air for a second. Since reset, every single time I log in I have to go do some random sh*t until the first guaranteed disconnect within 5 minutes happens and takes me to the menu to log back in, then deal with the lag. It takes longer to load, its getting stuck on the after match report or even a black screen for extended periods. There's huge chunks of time between matches where the player number counter won't even load. I've also noticed these load problems on PvE side too.
