So, with my friend we were playing peacefully in this ranked gamemode or whatever.
I try to shoot someone, I kill him and I wonder why he kept running towards a wall, I see someone else so I shoot but no damage, my ally also walk straight to a wall, turns out everyone got disconnected.
Pretty sure of what caused this : a DDoS, which is fairly easy if wireshark can get the server address and if it doesn't have any protection. It cannot be just a crash, after that many crashes, if it's really the case you might want to consider having better servers...
But honnestly it's from a DDoS imo, and you might want to do something about it if you don't want to lose many players. And you might also put in place somekind of compensation since the server crashed. It shouldn't make the winning team lose points, does it ?
PS : You might also want to investigate about cheaters, could also be useful in that regard, you don't want to have a reputation of a cheater game and with potential DDoS... And if someone says something about some protection, I might also investigate this and check if it's real, be honnest with your answer, thanks.

It's practically impossible to DDoS when playing on PC, since all players IPs are hidden.

`Bungie takes reports of suspected cheating very seriously. If you suspect someone is cheating, the best course of action is to use the in-game report tool and report the suspected player.
