I have no idea how many things have gone wrong with this patch, but the lag in the Crucible is worse than ever before.
Iron Banner can be described as lag free, in comparison.
The matchmaking seems to be fundamentally broken, as every lobby I am in either has at least 3 red bars, 6 yellow bars or everyone is yellow bar.
Shots take forever to register, melee charges are getting consumed, yet no damage is being dealt.
Bullets simply disappear (some call them phantom bullets).
I am getting sniped, yet no lense flare shows up (or the last 40 people are apparently the best quickscopers in Destiny).
People do not appear on the Radar, even though they aren't invisible.
Getting killed through walls is also a new favourite pastime of mine.
PvP is currently pretty broken, in terms of connection quality.
Edit:
Thanks for all the replies, up votes and agreement.
It's very reassuring when a lot of people experience similar things.
Something went horribly wrong with this patch, concerning the connection quality and hit detection of melee attacks.

While I might not share your full experiences with this lag since I don't pvp, I can at least speak on the behalf with the sparrow racing. I, too, have noticed a ridiculous amount of lag. I had a race the other night, was in first on the mars track, then all of a sudden, I was in third with two people who just appeared in front of me. My internet is not that bad that it was on my end. Don;t know what happened. There. And those stupid twitching fans. I think those things have claimed more lives than the black plague from the lag sometimes.
