Weird Lag

So I was in a Team Arena match earlier this week and experienced some lag in a way that I have never experienced in H5. I hardly ever have a problem with lag. I have good internet. If I do like it’s only when I try to stream and it’s teleporting type of lag. The most common type is someone from the other team is laggy and/or teleporting. This particular game was CTF Truth and the lag only occurred in the game in pivotal moments. It literally only happened in big fights in base while trying to defend our flag or cap the flag. All other gunfights in the game was lag free. Moving around the map was seamless. It was literally just laggy when we were trying to get the return in their base. It was really weird and almost made me think someone on the other team was making it happen like a standby or something in the old days. Anyone experienced anything like this? I did notice the other team had 3 people with the same clan name. So they were together I’m sure.

This lag is unfortunately vary common in any gunfights, especially if your internet is bad or slow.

I have good connection but this always happen to me and my friends in Halo 5… Because of that I prefer to play another game instead of H5… Usually this happen when I fight against smurf accounts but I don’t know if that is related.

I wouldn’t doubt or put it past people using lag switches so who knows. I find myself lagging anytime I play with people outside of U.S.

i get bad lags when i updated a game while playing halo, and i mean really bad lags!

Lag tends to hit at the worst time for me in every game
Halo 5 example: I was surrounded by zombies I could have easily mowed them down with my AR but then…I lagged into 15 different places on the map
Worst example in all of gaming: being number 4 in fortnite with a purple scar and rocket and lose connection to the game
I think some people have lag switches sometimes too it can get annoying when it only lags in game deciding moments

screen freeze is annoying af

I was playing Warzone, and we had all the bases captured. I tried sneaking into the other team’s base and I lagged to the other side of the map, just back and forth until the other team recaptured a base. And that has happened several times. I can’t go a single Warzone game without lag.

I’ve only had this issue with GB; usually when the other team farms for kills instead of playing the objective.

I’ll see random “teleportating” and I die at twice the distance than normal.

To be safe; just unplug your everything and let it go for a few mins, plug everything back in and test your connection.

I’m getting late grenade throws. The arm movement happens, but no grenade. I have had two games straight out freeze and then say I lost connection. My internet works fine on others games, PC, mobile, etc. Is something up with the HALO servers? This started yesterday.

Weird. Like I said, I hardly ever experience lag. I have the occasional sluggish server but nothing like what I experienced in my OP. For the record, I haven’t experienced anything like it since. I’m honestly thinking it was some sort of lag manipulation by the other team because it was so random and hasn’t happened since and my internet is really good. And no one was even in the house with me at the time.

I have actually experienced this. Though, I attribute the issue more to poor internet from others in-gamw

screen freezes also occur when a player leaves a match, its super frustrating.

I was just gonna say that. Sometimes after I finish a map, the game crashes. Its especially bad when you just purchased a REQ pack and the game crashes. Doesn’t happen as often as the other lag, but still super frustrating.
