This Iron Banner Has Got to be.........

Pretty good! Not unbearable lag. There is some, but it's not unbearable. Pretty even match ups. Sure there are better teams, but for the most part my team and I have had very even match ups which results in some close games. Pretty good drop rate on stuff post match. Gg on this one Bungie Video for fun: https://youtu.be/k2pLlwmf6UQ **I will say that for the solo players it probably sucks.. ***It seems the majority have lots of lad since Wednesday. I can confirm it for worse, but still is better than the last two. For me anyway.

  • It's not the drop rates or lag or anything that concerns me. It's really reeeally frustrating when I need to complete a bounty which requires a victory but keep joining a losing match every fricking time. I back out afterwards, reenter, and fricking rejoin another losing match. Jeez....

  • I have had one of the worst Iron Banana's in terms of lag. But I still enjoy the heck out of it. I just yell and say "what" alot at the TV and it makes it all better.

  • Solo'd all three tunes to rank 5. Not so bad. Many round 3k+ and still lost, but it's all good.

  • Personally myself and Destiny friends alike have all been having hell when trying to run IB this week. We get red barred to the point the game either throws us out or we're basically invisible the whole match where none of our kills count, and yet the other team can kill us just fine. Before anyone says check your internet connection, we all have and there is a drastic difference between destiny and non-destiny speed. They could have at least put the class items available from Saladin again to compensate for the connection difficulty causing problems with completing bounty requirements.

      There's terrible lag. I mean it's so bad at times that I'll tag a player 3-5 times and it won't register till he's ran off. What's worse is spawning in a group of enemies or the enemy that you just killed gets a chance at redemption by being spawned directly behind you.

    • This is one of the worst I've experienced. Multiple red bars every game, error codes and getting kicked midway through matches. Bad drops. I wish Bungie would work on fixing these issues before everything else.

        Boring, suckish, crap rewards, and played out. Only did 1 character to 5. First time in 2 years. Bring back rift.

      • A huge pain in the ass. I'm at nearly 70 matches played and I have only gotten two mediocre hand cannons, last one was around match 30, I thought bungie buffed the drop rates :/

        • This IB remains ho-hum. Lots of lag especially when playing in a full fireteam of 6 or when matched up against a full fireteam. The maps are stale. Some ole same ole. The rewards are good. Or should I say the drop rates are good. That's a positive. Rank 5 packages remain underwhelming. Inconsistent gaming experience because of the intermittent connection BS. Use the meta guns to be competitive as the nerfs to the other weapons make them utter garbage. This leads to boredom. Just another mediocre playing experience thanks to our good friends at Bunghole.

            For me, as a solo player. it has been the worst IB yet. I actually took notes of my first 30 matches - just to realize that all of them included one or several of the following; "against big premade", "Bungie decided to put the two 3-mans on the same team against 6 solo players", red bars everywhere" , "green bar lag worse than red bar" and backfill......and another backfill. I think i got to play a maximum of 5 out of those 30 games from start - and that's in a playlist where wins are crucial. Now, before you go on some "it's a social game" - rant take into account: * There are no in-game tools to find players. Zero. Additionally, a lot of people choose to play solo, for whatever reason. * Games with far less people playing have the tools to separate solo players and teams. There's no excuse to not do this. * This lopsided team VS solo player matches lead to more quitting, resulting in more backfills and people getting fed up with the BS. As a direct outcome, less people playing. * Based on my matches I'd say that atleast 40 % of the population play solo. That's a big chunk of players. Do you really want to alienate those players? Even those who are "team" - sayers should realize that once those 40 %, if not more, can't take it anymore and quit you'll see even less updates to the game.

            • I feel like there's just as much latency issues as there always is in IB. A few red bars every lobby one of them top scores. I will say my drop rates the last 4 Banners has been consistently around 23%, this time just 15% with no HC and 1 Shotty which is a bit stingy.

            • It's time to buff the drop rates of the ships. I've played every iron banner since launch, and they just won't drop.

                Returning player, and I've been having a blast with IB. Everyone's had their issues with lag, but as far as I can tell, it's happening to everyone, so it doesn't really end up affecting me all that much. Hate occasionally getting matched up against a pro fireteam, but thankfully, it hasn't been all that bad, and Im glad there's no penalty for leaving when it IS that bad lol Balance with weapons and classes seem the best I've ever seen in Destiny - actually can't complain one bit about it. Only seen one idiot teabagger, so for the most part, everyone's been super fun to play with. Easily hit rank 5 this go 'round despite having relatively little time to play this week. But yeah, had lots of fun. Keep up the good work :)

              • I'm a solo player. I'm really enjoying this iron banner. It's my first one with hard light, so I'm doing really well and I'm getting great drops.

              • This iron banner is really not that bad.had some good close and interesting matches.just a few red bars but they were most likely teleporting so bad you couldnt kill them :(. Only thing that happens a bit to often and really made me angry is respawn into a group of enemy player ready to kill you again or get kill by a super to respawn right in front of that super again.

              • I play solo and it doesn't suck. Good drop rates for gear this time around and I rarely see any lag at any time.

                • I agree. Been a pretty bearable run so far. No overused shoulder charging, there's a variety of weaponry being used, and the team balancing is near-decent

                • ib has been good to me this week maybe 1-2 matches of fake greenbar teams but other than that every match has felt smooth and non stressful (due to how matchmaking works and my clan mates not being so great I been able to play with the casual community more than the sweaty community)
