Doesn't anyone remember just how much lag there was in Y1? Trying to say lag is somehow a new thing due to SBMM is a flawed argument. Lag was rampant in Y1. Probably worse than it is now. You too tier players wanting an "easy mode" need to realize that you ARE the minority. If you push casuals out of PVP then you are only going to be left with hardcores and try hards.

Y1 wasn't nearly as bad.

It's the damage referee giving people more lag I think.

Everything in Y1 worked flawlessly with a perfectly balanced crucible meta, zero lag, competitive yet relaxing matches, and nobody ever complained about anything. At least that's my conclusion from reading the forums. I'm not sure what game I was playing at the time but apparently it was not actually Destiny.

Lag was rampant in Y1[/quote] Yes i remember, this game has never played consistently well, and that's because the game has always had SBMM, and poor matchmaking as a result as far as connection quality is concerned. They simply revised how they evaluate peoples stats and how we are matched based on those stats, which increased the lag problems, but the game has always had poor matchmaking. The only playlist that had connection based matchmaking was Y1 Trials, and even that was often laggy, at least one red barring enemy team per passage. It was almost as common to get matched with players outside of your region (or with players using a shitty connection) in year one as it is now in my opinion, the difference is now the enemy usually is roughly equally skilled.

SBMM was not introduced until October of last year. Try again.

Please do your research.[/quote] I guess you missed the part on that article where they are talking about reconfiguring the skill based matchmaking, it has always been there (which Bungie stated in one of their other weekly updates but i'm too lazy to find it for you). You cannot really re-adjust something that wasn't there in the first place.

oh snap!

The only time lag happened was in Iron Banner. Year one rarely had any lag, year two is pure lag.

Yes, the Lag is much worse now than Year1. The Fake Green Bars are lies. Green bars skipping around, its ridiculous.
