Pvp Lag has gotten out of hand...

PVP lag continues to dominate nearly every match. Always getting the laggiest players man. I pay for 1gb internet. I want no lag, only even matches. Maybe find some people whom can perform servers maintenance or solve the lag issue. Current staff are failing. Time for new talent. #I only lost to lag

  • [quote]#I only lost to lag[/quote] Many people confuse "losing to lag" with "I lost to someone more skilled than myself" As a self-described low-skilled player, I used to make that mistake all the time. You may not be aware, but recently, Bungie switched to SBMM (that's an abbreviation for Skilled Based Match Making) so now you are being matched with players of similar skill to yourself instead of easy targets, like myself. In addition, you will occasionally be paired against players who are much better than you at PvP (I know, it's almost unimaginable they even exist, but they do) and lose to them. A common coping technique that almost all humans use when they are defeated is to scapegoat and blame anything other than themselves for their personal failure. Since it is impossible for them to admit inferiority, they will often times blame the environment instead (eg uneven playing field, glass ceiling, rigged system, server lag, etc) to shift the blame away from themselves. So, your reaction is normal from a psychological perspective even though the core complaint of server issues and lag completely misses the mark.
