loaded up a match of slayer with 3 other members of my spartan company, the first game we played together. of course party chat isn’t working for me so i’m left to the sound of the game, talking to myself. first thing i notice is the game is lagging. really badly. grenades were not exploding until much later and they would jump from place to place instead of rolling. despite all this lag we’re still winning, but then my fireteam quits the match, leaving me by my lonesome. (i assume it was because they weren’t having fun with all the lag).
i still refuse to quit, and continue playing. lag is still there, then one guy from the enemy team quits, so its a 1v3 now. they don’t stick together so it’s still pretty easy to pick them off. i get assassinated, but the lag cancels the assassination and i kill the guy that tried to assassinate me. he rage quits. 1v2 now. these 2 guys realize it’s time to stick together… made it harder for me. at this point the lag started dying down.
i grabbed camo and a scatter shot and kept killing them. eventually they too quit. i decided to check it out in the theater and most of the clip is played in fast forward. just ridiculous. it couldn’t have been my internet doing it because my internet isn’t crap. the hell was going on??
