Why do players in a group always have a lag advantage in pvp?
Ever since Destiny 1, if I'm up against a party...doesn't matter if it's 2 to 6... they always have lag, and it's to their advantage.
Frustrating.

2 RespuestasI got a better one for you. Why when I play with my 6 stack we will face a 4 or 5 stack maybe every 15 games...but when I play solo all I get matches vs is stacks of 5 and 6 while my entire team is solos. That is some bullshit to me.

1 RespuestaEditado por GMDeece7: 12/23/2020 9:08:22 PMLook on the bright side. Since their lagging, there’s nothing stopping you from reporting their entire stack for bad connections. I find it funny that in a p2p game, where stacking is allowed, that you can actually take advantage of a fatal flaw against stacking teams and actually give them a humiliating suspension just because of a unstable online system. Pretty much, if you stack in this game at all in pvp, you risk getting reported for bad connections, and there’s virtually no defense you can say to protect your accounts, especially if there is a video used against them. You hate stacks, just report of for bad connections. It’s not your fault they failed to realize that crippling oversight within the boundaries of the game. Take advantage of them.

It messes them up to GiT GuD

How do you know when you aren’t having lag advantage? It’s easy to point out when someone else is lagging and they get an easy kill off of you, but can you really tell when you are lagging and got an easy kill off of them? Just some food for thought.

All info goes thru the party host, so your damage to them goes through 2 players and their damage goes direct to you.

The bigger the fireteams the more lag for sure. I live in the DMV area and fiber covers 98% of the area. I literally have 1,000 up and down with a ping of 7ms and still get paired against laggy fire teams. To me regional matchmaking makes sense to help curb it. I get matched against Germans, French, Chinese etc.... which is BS.

In my American friend group, I’m the only one from the Land Down Under, I apologise for my Maccas wifi lmao

p2p is kinda old and not fitting for a fps game.

This is the biggest drawback to Peer to Peer. Fireteams have signal advantage over solo players. Eight out of ten times the top player on the winning team is in a fireteam. Why? Players know this. Combine it with meta weapons and skill and suddenly PvP is much less fun.
-
I think if the host lags, it can cause the fireteam to lag. Also if you’re playing someone overseas and they’re in a team, they’re probably all overseas.

Working as intended for a cheap peer 2 peer architecture based game. I am not calling the game cheap (cost perspective). It's just the lazy architecture design to wash their hands off the need for a server. No wonder, destiny pvp is considered a joke in elite gaming circles. A lag advantaged player can kill you with a blue hand gun from across the map when you on a solid network connection can miss them with a nova bomb at point blank range. Nothing short of a network architecture joke.

[quote]Ever since Destiny 1, if I'm up against a party...doesn't matter if it's 2 to 6... they always have lag, and it's to their advantage. Frustrating.[/quote] They're using lag switches. The technique has been upgraded. That's why I don't play PVP anymore, unless it's part of quest.

Ah good ol causation vs correlation. I highly doubt every single time you play against groups they have lag advantage. It's way more likely that you just encounter laggy players cause this games net code isn't that great.

1 RespuestaBuingie doesn't region restrict. So teams can be made up of people from various parts of the world.

Because making a fireteam has to bypass any cbmm algorithm. Games with no teams on either side run waaaaaaayyyyy smoother. Like playing a different game.

There’s no question about this. There’s a distinct advantage and it’s neither the communication nor team shot....
