I just spent quite a bit of time playing in the Iron Banner today, and I'd like to add my voice to those many people in the forums right now complaining about the fact that anyone that lags, wins. My entire team had green bar connections, and we kept going up against teams with red bar connections, and without fail, the lag made the game unplayable for those of us with good connections. Those with bad connections, win every time.
[b]What is Bungie doing to address the lag problem that is making the Crucible / Iron Banner so unplayable for those of us with good connections?[/b]
Sometimes this seems intentional on the part of the laggers. Lag switching, etc. Can this problem be fixed?
There are many times too, when the entire team cannot respawn. Can that be fixed as well?
Can we please have an official response from Bungie on the plan to improve the Crucible experience without lag? Thanks!

It is bad, but there is nothing they can do about it. Dedicated servers may alleviate some of the issues, but they would need to be worldwide. No point in connecting from NZ or Aussie to some Nth American server with a 200 plus ping. Would make the situation worse, not better for some players. If they applied ToO matchmaking to all crucible, that may improve things? World wide dedicated servers would be awesome, but a pipe dream.
