Bad connections giving people an advantage in crucible
So I just played a game of control where 4 out of the 6 enemy team members had red bars for connection/ping indicators and my team was all green. We got destroyed and the top player on their team was one of the most laggy of them all. People with bad connections should not be able to go on a 10 kill streak imo. Anyone else seen this? Is it just bad net code or something else? I would like to hear your input. Also has Bungie even addressed the issue?
EDIT: so now im seeing this in 2/3 of my games, dont think this is hacking. Just the net code being bad.

Sh!t me crucible will never be fixed.

We played a group of kids who very obviously had lag switches yesterday. Green bars whenever they were winning and then borderline disconnecting the second they started losing. And the best part is despite them all using either suros or thorn coupled with a one shot sniper or shotgun they still almost lost. Its sad that people do crap like that to get a win in destiny of all games.

1 ReplyI have never played a PvP game where this happens constantly every match. Laggy kills, postmortem melee kills, inconsistent damage. I do mean every match. It's not my Internet and I don't believe that 12 people in every match has bad connections from their end. I could never take the crucible or the iron banner seriously as a truly competitive online PvP game. I have learned not to get to frustrated when I have to play it for weapon bounties and things. Iron banner was fun but once again inconsistent damage and some players with lower gear seemed harder to kill than lvl32 guys.

I like how this tread keeps going after months. To think they would try and fix the problem already
-
it somehow is more complicated than just red barring. I know that if i am red barring due to people with terrible internet messing it up for many, sometimes i die when on my screen i haven't turned the corner yet. I think you have to be lagging extremely bad in order to have the type of lag you're talking about. I have seen the type you're talking about. I have shotgunned guys point blank several times, meleed etc. It pisses me off more than ever when my super just autolocks onto those retards. I think that type might be intentional. But when i am red barring I get destroyed
-
all i have to say is ping lock servers. match people by ping and this won't be as much an issue. problem solved.

1 ReplyYes. They can eat bullets all day but kill you like it was nothing.

Crucible along with iron banner mostly shit laggy players. either not knowing there connection sucks or taking advantage from there shit connection. That's why I only visit it for one or two matches until they fix there shit.
-
I once meleed a guy at the beginning of the match but he ran away and started going ham and around halfway through the match the melee finally registered and I got a postmortem kill while I was changing some of my subclass perks. I had a green bar throughout the whole match btw and his was red most of the time. This is really stupid and needs to be fixed.

1 ReplyHappens all the time. A guy who runs into a wall and doesn't move you hit him with a shotgun five times he kills you. Then ten secs later you get a postmortem kill on him after he kills three more people. Gotta love that
-
3 RepliesI'm ashamed to admit this to be true.... I have cheep basically walmart internet. In my experiences in playing online PvP I have an amazing quantity of postmortem metals because of my shots not actually shooting till 2 seconds later. My melees don't kill anyone until I'm actually dead myself so i will be the one to confirm this to be true. [spoiler]I'm getting better internet soon so please do not hate[/spoiler]

Some people use their mobile phones as a connection to the internet if their on an unlimited plan Meaning they don't die when shot or they die after they've killed you
-
Thats the lag compensation at work if you have good internet you may as well just bend over. Third world internet is ruining shooters look no further than advanced warfares lagfests or battlefield 4 where you can't win a gunfight against Brazilians 90% of the time.
-
Yeah it's funny how that happens EVERY game....be nice if the ban hammer would drop on those that abuse it...probably stealing their internet off someone that doesn't know how to put a password on their wifi to begin with.
-
On those type of games I just try to take control and run and hide. I don't try to kill and try as hard as possible to not get killed.
-
I think part of the problem is they were too aggressive in trying to match players with different pings. But I did run into what you mentioned a few times. Fortunately it was only with indvidual players...and not whole teams. One guy was so laggy that he basically "blinked" around the entire map. You could only shoot him if you mannaged to keep him in one spot long enough. Of course, he wound up with the most kills on his team as a lvl 27.
-
My favorites are the ones who are so laggy that tagging them with sticky grenades (Flux, Magnet, Fusion, Tripmine) won't one-shot them at any point.
-
Too many times, they just never want to be in my crosshairs or they inhale bullets.
-
Idk what happened, but my team was having this happen to them early this morning. We were all red barring. It was driving me nuts, and we couldn't figure out why. Finally we said screw it.
