So after the new patch rolled out, I tried to play some crucible, and all I can say is: "wow, this is the worst connection-based experience I've ever had in a shooter".
I played 5 matches, and in every match, there was [i]not a single[/i] person with a green bar connection--everyone was yellow or worse.
I assume this has to do with the new damage referee, and I figure that it must also mean I've been chosen to be among the people who are forced to suffer having a bad connection by being placed with similar players.
Only here's the catch: I have really good internet. I'm wired into my router and get down/up speeds of 110/12. So why am I being put in these horrific matches? Is that really not a good enough connection for this new 'damage referee'??
I guess I'm stuck playing stale PvE content since the crucible is now unplayable for me...
EDIT: To all the lovlies calling me a liar and a hater because I only have one game in crucible recorded yesterday, I remind you aht I have more than one account, and I went on both to see if the problem was limited to one...

Because crucible is still SBMM. Now at 25 hours total of testing. I can see no difference in CBMM and skill is still the determining factor. So far it seems damage referee may, in fact, be working opposite of how its intended.
