I believe that the best thing they could do is have active software that monitors every player's connection. If a player's connection is consistently weaker/slower than the rest of the lobby or drops multiple times during the match, they're removed from the match with an error code similar to what we normally see. By doing this, there should be a record of the error on the acct that can be tracked, and it will also prevent players from playing PvP if they're unwilling to take the necessary steps to have the proper network services to play PvP legitimately. Obviously the error codes should be different for those that have bad connections versus those that are forcing lag and this would make it easier to figure out who to ban and who to only restrict. Eventually, those that just have poor internet connections will realize that they'll need to improve their setup to play or will not be able to play. The deliberate offenders will otherwise be dealt with.

  • Agreed. They need better thresholds for connection/ping/packet loss and drop players from a match that aren't maintaining those thresholds. They can create different error codes that direct people to better understand what actually happened with resources to fix it. You can have the best Internet and a green bar and still rubber band due to packet loss. People don't get that. And they need a new system for host migration. When the host lands on someone that causes the lobby to lag, it needs to move again immediately, not hang out until the full 120 seconds has passed.

  • So I must move house or be banned permanently? Ridiculous.

  • If you can't put forth the effort or funds to provide the necessary access, then you shouldn't be allowed to ruin everyone else's experience. It's simply putting the needs of many ahead of the few that won't make that decision on their own.

  • I live in a nice house in the countryside, I'm not paying tens/hundreds of thousands of pound to upgrade the network to my house. I don't ruin your experience, the crap way destiny's PvP is set up does. Again, you make another ridiculous remark.

    Regardless of how bad their servers may be, if you have slow internet, you're causing problems for other in PvP. Going into PvP knowing that makes you liable. That's like driving your car when you know its not mechanically sound and then causing an accident because it fails. Stop forcing others to suffer because you're not willing to make the sacrifice. We didn't force you to live in a poor coverage area. If you can't meet the requirements of a clean match, then don't play.

  • I'm not forcing you to suffer. How about you don't play if you don't like it? Idiot.

  • Lol great response. I'm a fool because I don't want to have my gaming experience ruined by inconsiderate people like you. There's a selfish attitude if I ever saw one. Hopefully, I won't get stuck in a match with your weak, country internet then.

  • You're an elitist moron. "I have good internet, so you all must get it or not be allowed to play" What a ridiculous, self righteous, pompous attitude. Sorry buddy, you're in the real world now, shit isn't equal. If bungie set up their PvP properly, everyone could have a decent experience.

  • Lol elitist. You're funny. This isn't about being elitist at all. This about meeting the requirements to properly complete the task. If your hardware can't keep up then you shouldn't be playing. It's amazing how narrow minded you really are.

    You really haven't got a clue have you. Nothing to do with hardware, as I explained. And yes, if you think people should be excluded because they haven't got the best stuff, that is elitism in its purest form. You thick fuk. Muted.

  • Yah. Something that will monitor what is normal for a player and see if it deviates too much? I don't know. Lol. But personally I don't play if my Internet is having a bad day

  • That's the considerate thing to do but apparently many gamers aren't considerate these days. I think geographical location can also affect network connections as I'm in the U.S. and have serious issues when facing players from Latin and South America.

  • I play with players in my fireteam from all over the world so I never expect a perfect lobby but it's always playable unless my Internet or someone else's is just having an off day
