Yet another complaint

Just another humble Guardian who seems to have the shared problem of A laggy net connection. I don't know what it is but lately it's seem it's worse then ever, to the point where I want to steer clear of the Cruicible because any games result in the same outcome. Other guardians blinking around with lag and resisting any an all efforts I, and my friends have to kill them. Events like Iron Banner are notoriously bad for it. Just today, whilst playing IB not only did we have to put up with fighting off a bullet resisting opposing team (which we've learnt to deal with), but we had the connection cost us three games when we were unable to pick heavy ammo after having our whole team fruitlessly try to pick it, only to then get overwhelmed by the opposing team, have them pick it and gain a massive advantage over the rest of the game. Other game types such as Rift, Skirmish, Salvage and even on occasion Trials of Osris are affected in some way by the connection. It's things like that, that make playing this game so difficult. Me and my friends love cruicible and PvE when the connection is well rounded, and we all do invest a lot of time into this game as we thoroughly enjoy it. But all we're asking is for you to please, invest as much of time to try fix this for community as it invest in enjoying your game. We want to keep playing but we're fighting a losing battle with something out of our hands.

  • Iron Banner attracts more players to the Crucible, along with returning players who've maybe taken a break to play other games. The fact is that it offers the chance of gear up to 320 which would normally only be available in the hard mode Kings Fall raid. Lots of people can't get 5 other people together to raid so this is the answer. I've personally played this IB with 3 friends who would normally not go near the Crucible. All that extra traffic on a P2P server system is bound to cause problems occasionally. Needs dedicated servers.

    • It didn't used to be like this till 2.1. That's when they implemented skilled matchmaking but with that it populates you with players from wherever they may be.
