Subject: Something to think about

Everyone is complaining with bloom and armor abilities which I get, but people like me have an entire other problem. I live in a rural area so my connection is pretty bad. Here are the things I deal with every game.

Shots with no bloom that miss
Always get sword blocked
Shotgun does less damage for me
Bloom is slightly bigger due to the game trying to make everyone flow together
People lag back and forth so it's hard to beat down

I could gone on forever but I just want you to think how lucky you are that your connection is better than mine and you can focus on the game not just your bars.
I played MW3 and GoW3 which have dedicated servers and I get equal footing against most players. Thank you Bungie for being to cheap to put it in even though you are richer and more powerful than some companies who did do it.
PS: I know 343 owns Halo Reach now

I have an awful connection at my grandparents' house, but I can still do well on no bloom settings. It's not that connection-based, so stop making excuses as to why you don't do well.

And MW3 doesn't have dedicated servers. What are you even talking about?

I live in the woods and I have 20 up and 5 down. A few more miles out of town and I'd be on dial up still.




P.S. MW3 doesn't have dedicated servers. ;-)

Your right it's my fault for missing shots due to me lagging I was accurate I could hit them in my black screen.

Bungie has done a lot of good things, And you're complaining about this. Mate, I get tons of lag all the time, I can point blank shoot at someone with the shotgun and they don't lose their shield, I can get lagged into a tree in a banshee and just blow up. I can drop from a safe height, And then teleport back and suicide. And I still play to the best of my ability and am generally a good player. I've played two matches of MW3 On a friend's disc, And it was laggy as hell.

Lag is a thing we all have to deal with on every game, Not just one by Bungie.
