Cheaters and Lag- Is ANYTHING being done?

Like the title says. Really just sick of raging by the end of most games because at least 1 person on the other team was redbarring and was an unstoppable beast because of it. Halo never had this problem. Yes there were times where lag could be bad, but it feels like the netcode just gets worse and worse with each patch for this game. I'm running around 18~20 megabits per second which should be more than sufficient, and I can clearly tell when *I* am the one lagging (I certainly don't get the beastmode advantages I see other players enjoy). For the love of God Bungie do something about it. I've been insta-killed inside my own bubble, seen people spong rockets and golden gun and nova bombs etc. you name it I've probably seen it happen at least once. I could just put down playing Crucible entirely, but then I'd have no reason to play Destiny at all outside of raiding and that's rather boring at this point. I enjoy competitive gaming but it's still supposed to be a game and fair competition - it shouldn't be so enraging.

  • No matter how good your connection is until p2p isn't a thing in this game the lag will never stop.

  • Ill interpret this for everyone. "Wahhhh, everyones better than me. They must be cheating. Nurf them, ban them. Its unfair that i dont own when i lag and everyone else does" Little idiot needs to go cry to mommy next time

      • At one point i was playing control with a 6 man team and 1 guy on the enemy team was Lag incarnate. he would just teleport around the map. My team just avoided him the whole game like he had the plague. That is until he melee's me from 30 meters away.

      • Here's how Bungie will probably (most likely) fix* this issue, A more radiant purple ball in the tower. Maybe this time they'll give it fruity pink flames :-) Oh and expect more vault space and/or something else just horrifically STUPID.

        • I feel your pain bro, I'm having same experience in PvP. It's seem broken beyond repair. They need to clamp down on blatant cheaters and lag switchers. But the noobs will just reply get gud etc etc.

        • As for the multiplayer only character stats/ endgame results are stored on a server but for the gameplay this is all peer to peer. Bungie was dumb enough to use this method in a time where the united states has declared war on internet piracy. People may have a great upload and download speed but there internet service providers are limiting traffic with ports most commonly used for p2p clients. The only way anyone will be able to experience the multiplayer as was intended is if bungie switches to dedicated servers which will not happen till the release of destiny 2 because they would have to redesign the entire foundation of the game.

        • I know this post is about me and I already told you I had no idea I even got a last second kill off of you, or whatever. Whenever I have really shitty lagspikes like in that match (which was only in that match for some reason) I have no idea what's going on and can't even tell if I got a kill on someone or not until 5 or 6 seconds afterwards. It's not some sort of Matrix thing where I can bend the fabric of space-time at a whim, it's me having no clue if a melee actually connected or not and having no idea where a person's gonna be when they unfreeze.

          • I haven't read the comments so not sure if someone else has said it - when the 3 man event in HoW drops will they look into then? If it is horde mode and survival time counts, then laggers will have a definite advantage. I saw a YouTube video the other day of a guy running the lamps untouched with a lag switch.

          • Tonight once the game ended and you couldn't move anymore I dropped dead because a guy who was questionably unicorning the whole match shot me dead while nobody else could move, they move seconds behind you yet their shots still register and even if you kill them they still kill you, that's a big if because you can unload every bullet from every gun into them and still just randomly drop dead while they run off and kill your whole team.

          • DMZ your playstation. It isn't about lag, the game is host based so the closet locationally you are to the host, the less lag you will have.

            A good players will find a way to counter these laggy bros ;) Trust me the lag only disturb the bad or average crucible players ..... with experience you learn how to counter.... just be patient and open minded....... sometime those laggy bro are so annoying that i would crush my controller on the floor..... but instead i use my brain and figure out a way to counter these guy.... Unfortunately (bragging about the fact that i have skills) only the experienced players will understand what i mean .... others will find an excuse..... i got plenty of connections issues and i keep a constant gameplay..... sometimes im the laggy bro and sometimes i play versus some others laggy bros..... adapt yourself or stay average crucible player

              P2P at its finest lets not have a dedicated server lets just have the consumer connect to people who have a dial up like connection. For people who don't know what dial up is because dial up is i am shur almost dead by know its 56k If you dont understand that 56 kilobits a second = 7 kilobytes a second 1001 KB = 1 MB Most games ask for (I believe but i could be wrong) atleast 3 MB download and 1 MB upload So 3003 KB download is 53.625 times faster 1001 upload is 17.875 times faster Just FWI to the new generation Also dial up would cut you off any time to "redial"

                • The devs, and especially deej actually work amazingly hard on this problem. Play the podcasts, or ride alongs, they work extremely diligently to absolutely avoid Any mention of it at all. It's like they think No mention=no problem.

                • Bottom line: Destiny works with p2p connectivity. Doesn't matter how good your connection is if the opponents or even teammates have potato connections. Hundreds of millions but not enough for dedicated servers? Greed at it's best.
