So I can’t even play a game without 2-3 blackscreens, sometimes before the match even starts, random deaths/ suicides, half he team being team killers, etc.
I guess 343 is done caring about this game?
Same here, blackscreens, opponents who have invincibility, lag and so on. Soon, someone will say that I have a bad internet connection. No, I don’t have bad connection. I have in my house optical cabel, 100 mb/s download and 100mb/s upload speed. I have all ports open for online gameing. I’ve done all for to the best gaming experience. Honestly, I like Halo very much but I’m tired of laggy gameplay.

If the game chooses a host who has a bad internet connection (By default it should not, but it does happen in Halo 4) or chooses a lagswitcher as a host, all the things described here will happen.
In these instances, players can sometimes fire through walls, players will teleport to points and/or have a faster sprint speed than normal, players may randomly fall over dead from ‘nothing’ (They were killed by a player, but there is so much lag, it is not seen except by host if they are there).
In more extreme cases, players will not be seen at all, so it looks like vehicles are driving themselves and explosions appear to be randomly happening (Seen this happen twice, both times on Ravine), items and forge objects can randomly despawn for the duration of the game, and many things may not even register (Such as shooting a person).
The Peer to Peer host system is what is broken in Halo 4. It sometimes chooses bad hosts for simply… reasons, and with Xbox 360 Halo 4 no longer really making Microsoft and 343i money, there likely will not be a fix to this (which the issue could be fixed with dedicated servers).
