Bungie needs to put their money where their mouth is. They always speak of "we'retaking reports seriously", "we are bringing down the ban hammer", etc. Yet NOTHING indicates that this is the case. If this were true, events like Iron Banner and Trials would be getting better, not worse. Even Bungie's twitch personality LacedUpLauren is calling this Red Bar Banner because of how out of control this IB is.
This is without question the worse Iron Banner with Lag Switchers I have ever seen. I've played them all to rank 5 and none have ever been this bad. Yeah you might see the occasional lagger here and their. So what? It happens. BUT ENTIRE FIRETEAMS OF 6 PEOPLE WHO GO FROM GREEN TO RED WHEN THEY FALL BEHIND IS BLATANTLY OBVIOUS CHEATING AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE.
Bungie has this "oh we don't want to shame the player" mentality. BS. Those players lost their right to not be exposed when they cheated. I want to see a list of every single player banned or suspended. Other games I've played have lists for offenders. Actual criminal records of a person can easily be looked up. Why the hell are we protecting the ONLINE IDENTITY of someone who has been caught cheating and manipulating the game? It's not like we actually know who you are in real life. How else is Bungie going to prove they have actually done anything?
If something was being done, why have I run into the same person, both in Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner, reported him for his blood red connection that magically only happens when his team falls behind? Two weeks ago or so my team was 8-0 in Trials and play against this douche and his team falls behind 0-2 and then all the connections go red and they sweep up the next 5 games. Then last night I run into his team AGAIN in Iron Banner on Twilight Gap and it's the same thing. Green connection until his team falls behind by 3000 points, then they lag to victory. I made a very strong point to report every single player, but will anything be done? I doubt it because he has already been reported and is still playing.
The cheaters of this game have figured this out. That regardless of what they do, they will probably get away with it because of Bungie's inability to act.
Bungie, for me, and every other player who is pissed off by this awful Iron.... Excuse me Red Bar Banner event, PUT UP OR SHUT UP. WE ARE CALLING YOU OUT. PROVE YOUR DOING SOMETHING.

I agree

Never had a problem with lag or switchers in IB. Just one warlock that would vanish every time you try to shoot him only to appear at your back and kill you. I used a shotgun on him and every shot I took he vanished. Very odd.
-
Is it really such a problem? I've encountered cheaters once in Trials, never in IB. This whole IB I probably only saw 4 people lagging bad enough to teleport.
-
The only way to force Bungie to act is for everyone to lag switch. That is the one thing Bungie reacts to. Everyone using the same "OP" weapon.
-
The premades are IMO 100 % responsible for the lag. Now, if Bungie actually had a working netcode this wouldnt be the case but sadly it is. The second you team up with someone who isnt close by you're causing the lag. You may not be affected by it but it seems to complicate matching, to the point that someone in the game will lag. So again, allow those who don't want to play laggy matches to have that choice by going in solo and not get matched with/against premades.

It's always been like this

-
Dude you can't tell the legit accidental laggers from cheaters I could just be a coincidence
-
Good arguments
-
Iron banner in general has always been laggy but I rarely see lag switchers in there. If a lobby turns from green to red chances are, you're lagging not them
-
Who's "We" homeboy?
-
TL;DR
-
I come back to play IB after 2 months off on this game and it's horrible. Think I'll stay gone

[i]Conductor has called you out Bungie, in the ways of old. ... Post, Nerf.....Liiiiiive[/i]
-
Lag switching in this game is pointless so I highly doubt people do it. [spoiler]Not saying that there's never been a lag switcher in this game, just saying that its rarely ever seen.[/spoiler]
-
You got a mouse in your pocket?
-
It's the best lagfest yet! Lol
-
You dont even need a lagswitch to have this event be a shitstorm, the lack of servers is what makes me flaccid.
-
Oh shizzle! We about to have a rap battle!!!
-
How do you still play this game? So boring.
-
They have been challenged... In the ways of old [spoiler]I'm certain I'm not the first to post this, but whatever[/spoiler]

I'm not calling bungie out. Soeak for yourself u blammin idiot
-
I hate the lag and shit as much as the next guy. But who's this 'we' you speak of? I don't wana be included in that .-.

Bump bump bump bump!
