    That's not lag switching. That's simply lag from a corrupted connection, not a lag switch. You can detect a lag switcher easily. Check the connections in the middle of the match. If everyone on their team is red barred except for one person, then you could say it's lag switching. In this case, the host had a crap connection and Bungie's matchmaking algorithm somehow picked him to be host. Also, when someone lag switches, the opposing team appears still except for the hosted lag switcher. He will run around and kill everyone at will. There's no beating lag switchers. Examples of Lag Switchers: 1. You never see them run, they just randomly appear across the map. This is because they are cancelling their outbound connection for the matter of seconds it takes them to move. When you finally see them appear, it's because their system's cache finally caught up with their movements. 2. They are never where you think they are. Their movements are too unpredictable for you to combat. Shooting them would be like shooting a ghost. But since they never cancel their inbound connection, they can administer as much damage to you as possible. So when their system is restored after the switch, your health renders what actually happened (you die). 3. You never see them when they are administering the switch. They are invincible and invisible as long as the switch is active. 4. Only the host can lag switch. No other combatant can manipulate a connection on a pvp based server. You sir, were caught up in a laggy game. The fact that each party only had one poor connection each proves this. EDIT: "Rubber Banding" is another example of lag switching. In Domination, if you continue in your attempt to capture a point yet you keep going back 10 feet then randomly die, then you've been lag switched. Rubber Banding occurs with poor connections, but if an entire teams dies during the occurrence, then the host is definitely lag switching.

    • Makes you wonder if they really were cheating, or if maybe you guys were lagging really bad on their screens the same way. I love the spinning grenade in the one guys lap though. That was awesome! Nice win! It's always nice to see cheaters lose.

        [quote]We’re committed to protecting Destiny against cheaters. Enjoy your game. Just play it fair. That’s all we ask. Short of your own commitment to honor, we’ll taken action ourselves. It’s not a thing we enjoy doing – and certainly something we’ll never quantify or describe in agonizing detail. The damned shall remain anonymous – their nefarious actions a mystery. We know you want justice. We’ve seen the chatter. We’ve read the reports. Yesterday and today, our Security Response Team has restricted access to the Crucible by the worst offenders among us all. We started with a look at the most notorious cheaters that had been reported by other players. After a cross-reference against our own player-data, we gave the Banhammer a mighty swing. Contained in its blast radius were hundreds of people who have manipulated network traffic. If you don’t know what that means, we love you. Never change. Cheating will not be tolerated, Guardians. The Destiny Community is a part of this process. Your finest weapons in the fight against cheaters are the reporting tools built right into the game. Submit a report when and where you detect shenanigans. Shaming your offenders in a video might feel good, but it doesn’t factor into our process for passing down a guilty verdict – and it might get you in trouble with the moderators of your favorite Guardian clubhouse! Issue a report. We’re watching and monitoring.[/quote] Great job on banning those cheaters bungie, even with video evidence you take extremely poor action. [quote]Shaming your offenders in a video might feel good, but it doesn’t factor into our process for passing down a guilty verdict – and it might get you in trouble with the moderators of your favorite Guardian clubhouse![/quote] So you acknowledge that you see videos of cheaters but still won't ban them... -blam!- you bungie! edit: I just looked at their recent games, and they were definitely cheating. Almost every game they had they won 5-0, no deaths. Some games they won 3-0 because the enemy did not want to play with cheaters or got kicked. And bungie still won't do anything.

          • This thread will probably be deleted by a ninja and the OP will be silenced because in the weekly update they said they don't want people snitching on cheaters because Bungie needs those cheaters to line their pockets with $40 TTK money.

                  Beat some cheaters doing exactly this earlier, however, later on with a different team we versed the same people. This time they just lagswitched whenever we bladedanced (3 hunters) and couldnt even harm them (they walked into walls ect, obvious abuse considering they all had green connection) then got the cap point. what a total joke. Though, I guess scrublords who can't get flawless legit deserve it right? Not like its meant to be earned or anything.
