Destiny-specific lag in all 6v6 Crucible game modes

In that video, I melee the guy five times to absolutely zero effect. This was just the most egregious example I've had recently, other things that've happened to me involve people taking no damage from fusion rifle bursts that should've killed them, damage being delayed from my pulse rifle fire long enough for them to kill me (and the die a half second after I die, if I'm lucky) or, my favorite, Hammers of Sol doing absolutely no damage whatsoever. An issue that didn't crop up in that video in Supremacy, as well, is that Crests just straight up won't get picked up half the time. I've stood on a crest for a good 10 seconds before, until a teammate shoved me out of the way and picked it up instantly. No, this isn't just my internet, awful as it tends to be. Immediately after this game, I went and played some of the Infinite Warfare beta, what do you know? It went perfect. I played maybe ~20 games in total, and I only experienced lag once, and that was at the very beginning of the match where I just sorta slid around in a circle for a few seconds before everything stabilized. After that, I was free to go on a rampage with that lovely little burst fire rifle you start with, I forget its name. And as another example, I can play Overwatch on my PC and average 50 ping with the American servers, when I suspect I must be getting somewhere between 200-300 in Destiny (obviously I can't tell precisely, this is just a guess from prior experience with shooters and high latency.) Seriously, what the hell? I already don't enjoy Crucible, considering the dumb, overpowered shotguns and obnoxious combos like smoke + voidwall grenades, but I'd at least like a fair fight. I can smoke a guy rushing me with his god roll Matador 64 with my own god roll The Waiting. That is, if the server gods are paying attention and notice that I hit him at 5 meters with every single bolt, well within my effective one shot kill range. I'm not the only one with experiences this awful, right?

      • 6v6 game modes for me 90% of the time are so unfair that it's hard to understand why and what improvements are paying off. Postmortem Melees drive me insane . As per 3v3 game types offer something like 50% less lag , deaths do happen exactly the same, its less but why would it still appear to with same latency happen but less often also for me .PvP (raids) seems to be little of a notice or I feel it's fair to same as everyone else's experience

      • If you lag in 6v6 all the time, but no lag on 3v3 or less then 6 players, your internet might not be fast enough. Destiny uses point-to-point (p2p) that needs all players to have a fast connection in games that has with lots of players. Other games may work fine with a slower connection as they use servers or one-host-for-all so less internet speed needed for all players except for a host/server. What is your download speed and upload speed? Try testing your internet speed using speedtest or something.

        • Rule your internet and your friends' internet out first. Then it's the other team ping flooding, lag switching, and taking you guys offline or lagging you out. [quote]I got u. Go through the PSN messenger and send me your email address. I have an easy to understand article I give to MY raid loop crew. It works. Upload isn't a huge deal. I play on 3.7 (boosted) down and <1 up and I'm as stable as can be. It will help everything you and your friends do on PSN from now on. Hit me up.[/quote]
