  • Question:? How do you tell the difference between a Lag Switch and just a Bad Connection? Spacemagic is Real man

    • There’s nothing you can do. Network manipulation takes place on their end.

        • Report then block on your console reporting and blocking tools for your network (PSN or XBox Live). Will never play with/against again! Bungie will do nothing, period. Footnote: make sure you don’t state a gamer tag, Bungie will be all over you like white on rice!

          • For one, you can leave matchmaking after a match you notice anybody in whos connection you dont trust. Then re-enter matchmaking. You wont have to play that person the next game. I never see the stutter gang at the top in Destiny. Lagging players in Destiny aren't like lagging players in CoD where 8 out of 10 highlight reels will be someone with serious lag.

          • The same way you combat leprechauns.... by realizing they don’t exist. Or you can continue to explain your inadequacy by blaming it on a fairy tale.

            • It's PEER-TO-PEER......LAG = Destiny bad design. Too many people thinking it's lagswitching, but it's simply peer-to-peer problem. People getting kicked from competitive matches = also peer-to-peer problem.

                You can invest in router or some service that can filter out high lag people from your playlist. I have one and it works most of the time. However lag switching is manipulation also. People can downgrade their connection after joining the lobby which is what smart cheaters will do. I am not a PvP player but I know how networks work in great depth. I know how people DDoS or use lag for their advantage. Bungie design of P2P is cost cutting and that's why it will never be taken seriously in eSports. It's just a bragging arena.

                • You can leave the match, Bungie doesn't have any way of stopping it and they don't seem to care.

                • 1. This is naming & shaming, which is against the ToS & CoC. 2. What game are you talking about? Destiny? If so, please edit your post and change the hashtag from #Gaming to #Destiny, or #Destiny2 respectively, as you’ll likely receive a better response over there. For future reference, the Gaming subforum is for topics that relate to games other than Destiny and/or Destiny 2. Threads that do relate to Destiny, and/or Destiny 2 belong in the Help, Feedback, Recruitment, Destiny & Destiny 2 subforums respectfully. I am sorry for this redirection, I will add a quart of lutefusk so we have good feelings. :)
