I'm not sure if you've tried this, but could you do a network test from your console or a computer (if your console won't allow it) while playing Destiny in a match making activity (preferably the Crucible)? This would help us figure out how much your latency changes, if at all, when playing Destiny. As others have pointed out, having multiple people on your network can also be an issue.

Yepp, it's the stupid P2P hybrid like netcode they use. Massive games like that should use dedicated servers. You can't just put all that on the client side, to save money, and expect that everything runs fine. A reason why I avoid Crucible as much as I can. Games like Overwatch run soo damn smooth online, has 60fps (which is a massive job for any netcode/server to handle) and is a 6on6 game. Playing it since release and to my surprise I NEVER experienced a latency/lag problem not even at launch. Same with games like Battlefront, which is a large scale shooter running at 60fps. All of them using dedicated servers and the problems are soooo little. And I never hear someone complain about massive problems.. And now look at Destinys PvP. Constant boots for no reasons, red/yelllow bars everyhwere, even when nothing is going on, and a netcode which allows P2P cheating methods (IP booting, host bridging) abused by all the Trials cheaters. Also, what I noticed quite some time ago is, that the network code has massive problems compensating lag/issues (which are always present in online games no matter to which degree) between more than 6 players. It's absolutely rdicolous that any 3on3 mode runs almost perfectly fine and any 6on6 crucible mode has terrible problems keeping players connections in a state for an acceptable experience. Prime example is Iron Banner, people always play when it is online and we all hear people joke about..."Iron Lag". That should be a sign for Bungie. When you check other players connections you see that nearly every 6on6 mode has at least 2 or 3 yellow/red bar players... It's just another sign of that Destiny was never meant to be a +6 player per session game (and why Destiny was originally planned to have no versus multiplayer at all AFAIK) and why it doesn't even support basic Versus features like private matches. Even in the tower, with 16 players, where nothing actually happens, people can yellow and red bar like crazy. I never ever experienced such a weird behavior in other games during my +20 years of gaming history. Sure, the more player the bigger the problems can be, but why is PvE running relatively smooth in a Raid with all the stuff going on and suddenly you g into crucible and the game can't even handle a single map with 12 players...are you kidding me? Battlefield has like, what, 64 players per match and runs ok in comparison to Destiny? Why? How can this be. From a consumer perspective this is absolutely unacceptable. It's beyond ridiculous that a 2014 game still uses a P2P like system. Why this is even a thing in the year 2016 is beyond me. Players here did their work, have everything set up and yet they experience problems when other games just run absolutely smooth and fine on their side. That's clearly a sign of bad networking from Bungies side. And people here constantly telling others that it MUST be a problem on their side are pathetic. Yes, Bungie started to to develop this game during Halo Reach times where P2P was still a thing and relatively common, but c'mon you just can't come up with a game like Destiny and then use this excuse of an netcode to make it somehow run for everyone 3 years later at launch. Dedicated servers existed back then for a long time and the game should have been optimized for that technology. I really hope Destiny 2 improves here. That should be Bungie's first thing to work on IMO.

How did you receive this notification, just curious?

It's your latency

It's not a bandwidth issue, it's latency. 4mb adsl will work, but nothing will work well if there is latency. You may have the bandwidth to allow multiple people to use the internet connection in your home, but that still creates more latency as the router decides which packets to send where. You've been upgrading bandwidth for years but still use the same cables (oxidized connectors). Doing your research means investigating latency too.

Get better connection

Maybe you should stop paying for that shitty Internet

Am I the only one who never gets any connection problems or high ping?

thank you bungie for banning another red bar cheater

Maybe get off the Gaystation?

Download speed is good, but your upload speed is dreadful. 20 is very low, and your end does have to upload your consoles data to the Servers. However, neither of these numbers really matter a prospect called 'latency' is what matters. Basically, the further away and the more modules that your ethernet has to go through can cause issues and increased milliseconds when connecting to servers. For example, if you have a Modem hooked in to your wall jack, and then have a Router hooked to your Modem, and then have your One/PS4 wirelessly hooked to your Router, there are a lot of buffers your packets have to pass through in order to reach the server, which will increase your latency(ms). As an example, while playing Destiny (Crucible), my One has an average latency of 72ms(Ping). This is about the average for most players based on distance and modules. Average latency for most online games is usually between 40-70, anything under 40 is good, but generally anything over 80 is a problem, especially if it starts reaching the 100+ area. Edit: If this is the only online shooter you've played with connectivity issues, regardless of P2P or Dedicated, then you must have only played Destiny.

You should've put a comma in the title. Between "Bungie" and "I've". Please use correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling when making serious posts.

I think it is a latency issue, there is no way the game sends enough data to affect speeds like yours. It is a broken peer to peer model that amplifies many small latency issues in each node. Dedicated servers would minimize that. PvP is currently implemented in many games without these issues. I hear Overwatch is pretty much entirely problem free. But expect a parade of idiots that are about to blame you for your shitty internet connection and rant about keeping red bars (i.e. everybody) out of the crucible.

I think you have just been spammed with reports. It could be a problem with other people's Internet, an error or someone who just doesn't like you and sent loads of reports.

[spoiler][/spoiler]your wasteing your time bungie dosent give a shit [spoiler][/spoiler]

Same here but how did you know you was banned from Trials of Osiris for a month?all mine said is that I'm banned from crucible for a week but 3 weeks later I'm still banned from Trials of Osiris it's sooooo irritating I'm getting annoyed with this now and feel like putting my destiny disk through a paper shredder or Frisby it out of my top window and watch it CRACK. SORT IT OUT BUNGIE NOWWW. check how my many hours I played and they treat true legit players like this it's like a kick in the teeth.

Well I mean obviously you cheated. It couldn't possibly have been a team of crybabies that got upset and reported you. Or some random issue that caused your internet to crap out for a game or two. No. It has to be cheating. Because there is no way that Bungie's servers are anything but the best. They never lag or cause any issues for anyone. If you're red bar then you're obviously cheating. [spoiler]Really though reading your post has aggravated me to the fullest extent. How the hell can they do this to you without providing any evidence of the offense? Do they even have any? Or did a bunch of whiners just report you because they were butthurt and now you're banned? And restricting access to your gear? -blam!- that. If this ever happens to me this game will be done. I have worked too long and too hard to lose all of my stuff because of Bungie's shitty servers.[/spoiler] #Satire [spoiler]SATIRE[/spoiler] [quote]SATIRE[/quote] [b]SATIRE[/b] [u]SATIRE[/u] [b]SATIRE[/b]
