Enemies invisible and worse lag than normal

I will try to get my vid up later of at least the invisible enemies. I had it happen to me in strikes and gambit and my brother had it happen to him only in strikes along with a couple of friends also having the same issues. At first I thought it was my net giving me an issue which is abnormal so I tested it and I had better than I should which is normal. I am supposed to have a 200mbps connection and it usually runs right around 230mbps with a 18ms ping and 3ms jitter. My router also showed only kbps of data being used which is normal when it is only the game running which it was. I guess the good part is when they were invisible they did no damage to me but at the same time motes would just drop out of nowhere and I could pick them up. There are getting to be far too many issues in this game.

  • I seriously thought I was hallucinating because I swear enemies would be behind cover and then all of a sudden they’re in front of me shooting. Happened too many times to just be a visual mistake but I couldn’t explain it.

  • Happens all the time in PvP, one of the reasons I don’t play it anymore. I think it’s why we have Taken enemies still in the game (only enemy that uses lag as a designed-in feature) likewise Gambit Invaders. You die before the enemy is even in your instance let alone see you, target you, and then shoot you. Seems to happen quite frequently in strikes if you go on a spree - game says ‘nope!’ from full health to spinning orb before there’s any evidence of enemy combatants near you. Architects anyone?

  • PvP has been laggy for me lately. Numbers not popping up and people teleporting.

    • Thankfully pve can’t damage you when you lag but pvp can.

    • Interesting. This happens in Crucible as well, but I'm convinced it's an exploit, because it comes at the most convenient times for the opposing team (like when they're losing and staging a comeback). Occasionally I've had myself become invisible in PvP (and i don't mean from mass invis) or even more interestingly, am visible to myself but clearly invisible to the opposing team, but I also can't hurt them with anything except rally barricades and grenades (and likewise only take damage from enemy grenades). I'd chase enemies around and repeatedly melee them in the back of the head and they wouldn't die or take any damage, but they couldn't see me, they'd only react to when I dropped a rally barricade, so clearly they can see that, and take damage from it. Interesting stuff: I suspect it happens when the lag switch hits just right. :P And for whatever reason makes me like an in-game version of a dimension phase shift, poltergeist if you will.
