Hey, Please remove the video link and profile link in your post, that is Naming and Shaming, which is against the Code of Conduct. The forums is not the place to report cheaters, you can however report them using the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13967]Player Report Form[/url].

If you're on Xbox report them to live. If you're on PS report them to PSN. They are doing something about it. Unfortunately the punishments for first offense are lite but continued reporting can get them banned for life.

Hello there, so I have some things to say about lag and that bad stuff. Yes, I agree lag is not fun for anyone who takes the game seriously and especially when you are trying to go 9-0 during a Friday. I consider myself a slightly above average player, I do good in every match, positive kd, all that good stuff. I like playing pvp mostly and lately I have been not enjoying playing at all becuase of network issues. I found out what the problem was and its something you would call "McDonalds Internet" or "Walmart Internet". So I tried playing crucible but I am always red baring and its not Bungies fault, (although it is sometimes ;). But it's not that I have bad internet that made me type this, it is how the players I played against responded to it. As I said, I am better than most of my friends at multiplayer and I love 3v3 elimination. So every time I go into a game, the little bar goes red. Now the people, (that I've played against) think that I am cheating and lag switching because I am not good enough. One guy sent me a message saying " awesome" f-ing " lag switch you blight on society". I am not a mean guy or rude so I responded with LOL. Then he crossed the line when he wrote "get cancer". Now I know it's a game and all, but really? Get cancer? And this kid was older than 16. So this kid instantly assumed that I was a lag switcher with no skill. I mean, he was a hunter using evade shotgun while I was using tlw and a sniper. And he does have the reason to get mad because i was lagging during the match, and I was getting like a one second delay where I could shoot his head and one second later it would explode (firefly). So I got all those nasty messages after the salvage match was over and I decided to play something else. Here's the thing, I felt like in a bad mood because of the way that player treated me and you might be like, "it's just a game" and yeah I did think of it like that, but then it occurred to me that maybe that kid might have also attacked a smaller player, maybe your little brother or sister or your son or daughter. If you think that the other guy is cheating by manipulating networks, then just report him in-game, Bungie knows. But there is no need to go talk trash to the other guy if you think they are cheating. Just don't be an a-hole and respect the players. :)

[quote]I have noticed more and more people Lag Switching in the Crucible and especially Trials of Osiris. Because the only way they can win is by cheating.. But the problem is that nothing is being done to these people. You report them, report the issue and nothing. Next weekend you meet up with those people again, and nothing. Please can something be done to lag switchers. This is cheating and it makes the game unenjoyable for others. [REDACTED][/quote] Unfortunately some will always find a way to cheat the system. All they care about is winning and the people who do it (sadly) don't have a problem with it. Yes Bungie takes cheating seriously make no mistake about that but finding a solution to fix it takes time and money. You see it's all about managing your resources because nobody has unlimited resources. You need to ask yourself is it cost-effective and realistic to do it now? Before you say (Yes) consider this, their has to be a larger number of people doing it. Remember It's all based on statistics, if only a small amount of the PvP population are doing it it's to small and not considered a big enough issue to fix right away. Unfortunately it will be put on hold because they have bigger issues to fix or address first.. And yes you may have to consider the possibility of Bungie never getting around to fixing the issue if the total percentage of players who do it stays very low or if they can't find a cost effective way of fixing it.

Lag switchers are the reason I don't play pvp! Only did ib cause I heard you could get 320 drops.

That's insane. I do feel the need to point out, however, that you are really good at predicting where he's going to be! Excellent work negating is tricky revives and countering most of his teleports. Even if you didn't win, you made it as difficult for him as you could. :) I find it very interesting in the second video that he has a good connection, up until the round actually begins.... Definitely supports the evidence of the LS.

Evidence, a confession, AND an apology! If he's true to his word, and won't do it again... well at this point, to be banned is rather moot. His punishment will be the constant scorn from every victim of the blight on the gaming community that is Lag-switching.
