A message to all crucible players
If you get beat in a gun battle from time to time, or if you miss shots that you thought you hit and proceed to die..it does not mean the opposition is lagging or cheating. You got beaten in a gun battle, suck it up, and resume your game. Thank you
Edit: I understand lag happens and is quite frequent in the game. I'm not saying that lag is non-existent, nor am I saying that it doesn't play a part in the game. But simply saying that someone is a cheater or lagging because they defeat you in a game is a completely false assumption of who you are facing, unless you have proper proof of them lagging or using some kind of exploit.

LOL But but but, what if I dump a full clip into them, then ask my teamate if he saw that, we both laugh. Then my target drops dead and I get the kill not firing any more shots. LOL That was last night. We laughed pretty hard!

2 Replies[quote] is a completely false assumption of who you are facing, unless you have proper proof of them lagging or using some kind of exploit.[/quote] That's not really a logical thought. Most assumptions are based on experience or belief. If it was based on "proof" it wouldn't be an assumption. Would it? It also begs the question; what is proper proof of lag? Or, of "using an exploit?" Would observing an opponent teleporting be proof? Would being shot repeatedly after rounding a corner be proof? Would the guy you dumped 4 shotgun blasts into dying 20 seconds later -after he kills you and you're still dead checking his connection - be proof? I don't know if these are "proof" but, if I experience it you can bet your ass I'm reporting you to XBOX and Bungie for cheating by means of lag. I don't care if it's intentional or not.

1 ReplyI killed someone on pvp on iron banner yesterday and his dead corpse was still shooting at me. That killed me. Is that not lag?
-
1 ReplySome shots I can see the person flinch from my bullet but take no damage

It happens in alot of games not just destiny I would say call of duty is the worst for it thank god I don't play it anymore though. Gun battles seem inconsistent in most games now shoot first die first.
-
Suspicious encounters I record and review later. Most of them I was beat, fairly. But there are a few where the player moved faster than the video could capture-> lag switch. They were reported to both Bungie and XBox, although I guarantee nothing came of it... As for Red Bars, there is little point reporting them as most greens are only recolored reds anyway!
-
I report ALL RED BAR WARRIORS.
-
No I am certain I hit this guy. Honest.
-
Nah blame P2P
-
I just say it cause I like to lie to myself. I am perfectly able to tell when I get outgunned and when I died because of lag. I don't really get upset anymore. I only rage when I'm doing a carry and we lose because people are teleporting all over the map because they have a crispy red bar.
-
If I see the persons body flinch from my shot but no damage registered, you're damn right I'm gonna say that should have hit
-
1 ReplyLol so the guy walking into the wall and shooting me just beat me in a gun battle fair and square righttttttttt don't be oblivious to the issues there are, yes often you are beaten fair and square but way too often I get killed by people simply lagging or because my shots don't even register.
-
As you lose to laggy players your kd will drop and you will not be matched against so many laggy players. Thanks sbmm. Your the best.
-
That's why so many want dedicated servers, Custom Games and Private Matches. It would reduce Lag and help newer guardians to learn the maps and weapons before real battles. Then IF players got a better understanding of their shotguns reach or reload times, map awareness and etc in a less tense private match they wouldn't complain as much and blame it on lag instead of their skill level.

2 RepliesEvery game you play has at least 2 people who have a connection advantage over you. It's not tainted lies to cover up for failure; it's what happens in Destiny. When you play/played extensively, you can feel if a kill is legit or not, same with your deaths.

TRUTH. SAVAGE.

4 RepliesMessage to you: -blam!- YOU AND ALL THAT LIKE DESTINY'S PVP

What? No! If I get killed it's obviously DDOS or something! I'm MLG, but the stupid hacks! *Looks up DDOS*
-
I refuse to accept that I miss shots. Just because the reticle is nowhere near there head or that I'm trying to no scope drop shot 360 a kid doesn't mean the bullets shouldn't curve towards the target. I mean if a weapon like truth gets a perk that helps why can't my doctrine get it?

11 RepliesI generally assume I've been outplayed, unless something really odd happens. Like the time I apparently got one-shotted by a handcannon. I've been killed by enough handcannons to know they don't waste you THAT fast.

4 RepliesI got hit, not killed, by a lightning grenade through a wall today.

I agree with you. Sometimes, they other shooter wins. Unless you have some other reason, they may simply be better, or you are having an off day. It happens. In IB today I had a Hunter that would run in front of me, then as I begin to shoot, he'd disappear and end up behind me. Shotgunning me in the back. He'd then disappear and re-appear way up in front of me again. He had to be lagging or something. Happened repeatedly. But it's a game. I don't need to plaster his/her name on here, or insult them. If you need to do that kind of stuff to play a video game, that says it all. Move on.

I usually assume my opponents play fair and beat me because of their skills or me just playing stupidly, except for some really weird ones; Yesterday I met a player with a red bar connection who got minimal damage from my Lord of Wolves in like 6 encounters on point-blank range, my teammates were having the same issue it seems, because that player ended the match with 27 kills and a 9.0 KD. One of his 3 deaths was a melee from me after which he first killed me and another teammate with his melee still before suddenly dropping dead. In these kind of situations I see 3 options; 1. He's lagging really bad. 2. He's cheating. 3. I'm drunk, standing upside down with my eyes closed while trying to use my feet to play the game.

Most people just blame lag and cheating when they're angry, but they aren't actually causing anyone of anything . It isn't a big deal

1 ReplyIdk I have had a red bar since Bungie implemented sbmm
