Hello there, so I have some things to say about lag and that bad stuff. Yes, I agree lag is not fun for anyone who takes the game seriously and especially when you are trying to go 9-0 during a Friday. I consider myself a slightly above average player, I do good in every match, positive kd, all that good stuff. I like playing pvp mostly and lately I have been not enjoying playing at all becuase of network issues. I found out what the problem was and its something you would call "McDonalds Internet" or "Walmart Internet". So I tried playing crucible but I am always red baring and its not Bungies fault, (although it is sometimes ;). But it's not that I have bad internet that made me type this, it is how the players I played against responded to it. As I said, I am better than most of my friends at multiplayer and I love 3v3 elimination. So every time I go into a game, the little bar goes red. Now the people, (that I've played against) think that I am cheating and lag switching because I am not good enough. One guy sent me a message saying " awesome" f-ing " lag switch you blight on society". I am not a mean guy or rude so I responded with LOL. Then he crossed the line when he wrote "get cancer". Now I know it's a game and all, but really? Get cancer? And this kid was older than 16. So this kid instantly assumed that I was a lag switcher with no skill. I mean, he was a hunter using evade shotgun while I was using tlw and a sniper. And he does have the reason to get mad because i was lagging during the match, and I was getting like a one second delay where I could shoot his head and one second later it would explode (firefly). So I got all those nasty messages after the salvage match was over and I decided to play something else. Here's the thing, I felt like in a bad mood because of the way that player treated me and you might be like, "it's just a game" and yeah I did think of it like that, but then it occurred to me that maybe that kid might have also attacked a smaller player, maybe your little brother or sister or your son or daughter. If you think that the other guy is cheating by manipulating networks, then just report him in-game, Bungie knows. But there is no need to go talk trash to the other guy if you think they are cheating. Just don't be an a-hole and respect the players. :)
