Unless your a seasoned fps player and think more wire frames, visual frames, line of fire there may be times when it appears someone is cheating or lagging. I ran into my first laggy player last night and only one game. It was obvious he was lagging. I have had no noticeable lag myself, download is 50+, upload is 25, ping is 34ish. If you speedtest.net anything lower than 20 down and 3 up with a ping above 50 your fxcked and any problems you experience comes down to your connection. A couple ways I clearly take advantage of the game - cover is next to useless. I shoot through the edges of doorways, rocks, crates ect. If my red dot is on the edge or even slightly in players who are ducking back thinking they are behind cover just aren't. - glide - I basically just fly around the map. Once your really comfortable on each map it starts to shrink a bit and you learn where you can fly to pretty easily. Press glide the moment you jump for max effect. You can turn glide off in the airb and activate it closeer to the ground in av way that makes you hang in time for a moment. -auto rifle - yup, everyone says it's op because it is. Mine has 51 attack and I've only ran into one person with a better one. Anyone who claims it's balanced is stupid or loves it so much they don't want it to change. Ease of use is a huge factor. I can even shoot it single shot. Registration is tied to your red dot. Distance is no problem and if it is I should have my sniper out anyway. Auto rifle glitch - call it a glitch or poor registration because of Internet but when I die using the auto rifle and my opponent is 1 shot if I pretend my gun is still there and continue holding the trigger that split .00001 of a second where my body is still falling to the ground I still have damage registration on the enemy. Usually I get the kill xD Yay auto rifles When fighting 1.) You have a shield that goes back up. Take your thumb and prevent it from always walking you into bullets. Back off, let your shield go back up if you need 2.) Strafe, above not walking straight at players shooting you, move left or right. In fps you have a huge blinds pot where your gun is. Strafing quick to the right and it immediately left should put your in your enemies blind spot. Vehicles are incredibly op especially when no hijacking ability but a very very easy way to kill any vehicle is the turret. Obviously the more guardians your fighting the more assistance you may need but sniping an interceptor being railed by the turret should blow it up quickly. When in doubt, super. [b][i][u]You can bull true the titan[/u][/i][/b], I did it, thank you auto rifle. map specific - Venus - amazing sniper angles from C, you can see B platform and 10 steps towards A you can see the hallway leading to A from C. If someone lands on that B platform everybody misses and your a warlock it's an easy dusting. That or a grenade but the player has to land on that platform if takes the B shortcut. So make him land on something that hurts xD titans grenade is nice too because it pulses You can get pretty high up on rocks with glide. -The moon- either be on the very outside of the map which I don't recommend because your alone and can't play the objective or be high up towards the middle of the map. The distance connecting a, b and C only becomes large when you move to the outside of their buildings. If you walk a -c it's actually not a long distance and heavy ammo spawns there. There is a pointy tall pointy piece of the moon between a and b that is easy to get on with glide. Weapons - if your heavy is not rockets it's probably because you don't have a great auto rifle. The heavy machine gun is nice but destiny battles are about one shot kills whenever possible. Get rockets and abuse them. With a good auto rifle you don't need a heavy machine gun. Sniper vs shotgun Pick your poison for Venus, shotgun being better for cqc, using the angles I've mentioned and being a good with a sniper though can Trump shotguns as we have seen in previous halos. On the moon you are letting your team down using a shotgun. At distances you can't help the team and cqc is all supers and grenades anyway. The shotgun just makes you travel more which can be annoying and time consuming. Your damage over time is still relevant in pvp and all the walking and running can hurt you when a snipe just blows away their head from miles. For those of you always getting your butt kicked in pvp. While your team may hate you that game, ignore the objective and learn the map, learn where the heavy ammo is and listen to Bill Nye when he tells you to get it. Understanding the map as well as player spawns will get bring your kd miles ahead if it's below 1. anything I missed I'll add later xD
