Everytime I play online CTF, the bungie servers (including EU) have a lot of lag. I am not the only one who has lag in the match, everyone does. I've seen people with 300+ ping, which pisses me off. I have a good computer, it has never lagged before, and I know it's not me because everyone has it. What is bungie going to do about it?

Bungie is not going to do anything about. The Bungie server's have been like this for over a month now. Many have complained on this forum and e-mail.
My suggestion is go to a dedicated server or play cusom edition.
Trust me, this is a dead issue with Bungie and posting about it is simply a waste of time.

Peace.

They won't do anything. They didn't port Halo, Gearbox did, and they -blam!- it up a bit. The netcode isn't great so lag will always be there. Try to find a server with low-ping people. I know that there's 1500+ on right now. Yesterday I got on one where everyone had lower than 80 ping.

Bungie servers seem to attract slow-connection players more than others, mainly because they can't get kicked from it.

It's not really about the lag lately. I think we all have got accustomed to the typical lag. It's the connection symbol on the lower right and along with that you get warping. It don't matter if the overall ping is low, because you still get this problem with Bungie and only Bungie.
I have had the Bungie server's close down several times while me and a friend where playin due to this current issue, (not lag.)
It's lame that nothing is done about it, or even an acknowledgement of the problem. It's just part of the Halo pc experience.
