Crucible connection, how the hell does it work?
This is roughly my experience in the crucible and trials right now bungie, please anyone take a look and spread this around, hell comment your experiences if you have any of these problems too everyone, I'm curious to know if others feel as I do and if anyone else wants this to change in D2.
I don't know if I'm green bar or red bar. Game says I'm green and someone else is red, and I ask them about that and they say they are green as well as me. What do I trust? Do I trust that I'm not lagging? If one person on the enemy team is lagging, is it me lagging to them or them lagging to me?
I have to connect to 11 other people every game, then the only info the game gives on my connection is that I'm green, yellow or red bar. But which is it? Am I green for one person but red for someone else? Am I laggy or not? The game doesn't know or if it does it won't tell me so how can I know whether to stop playing or not until I get messages telling me to leave PvP in manners worse than that? Can I see my ping? No. Can I tell if my "green bar connection" is merely my connection to the servers or if it's my connection to the lobby as a whole? No. See the problem here? Bungie seem too scared to give us any information on how our connection status is. It's no wonder we get kicked without knowing why, the game doesn't really tell us and now I wonder if the game even know why we get kicked.
If we can get this type of discussion and these questions trending, then maybe we'll get a response from someone that hopefully isn't just the average, "I'm sorry you're having these problems with our game, but unfortunately we can't really help"

This in theory would be if everyone is playing relatively close. Your connections and speed matter but if you are not the host then your connection is simply just part of the connection equation. When we did some different private match 3v3 tests if my friend in Alaska whom has at the time 1.5mbps up and 5mbps down was hosting it would show myself and another on the east coast as red bars and fluctuate to show yellow at points. Then when I would host with 10mbps up and 60mps down we would all be green and he would fluctuate between yellow and red. The thing with none private matches is it's hard to tell whom is hosting and also it will switch hosts once the hosts connection drops below a certain speed. The questions that need to be asked in my opinion is whom takes priority as being host in the p2p equation is it location, connection, or random next you will need to find out at what point or speed/ping does the game force a host migration. With these answers I can probably tell you what your problem is.
