Bungie You are still Painting Red Bars to Green.

Its bullshit. There are many games that appear as everyone Green Bar and right in the last minute you notice half the people are yellow and someone is red. I call BS. Nothing changed and Bungie is laughing at us all for saying how much of a change we notice when really all they did was make a post saying they changed things. If you have any significant amount of hours in this game it is super easy to tell when there is connection issues. Its frustrating as hell to try and play a full game thinking you're having an off game because every time you pull out your ghost you see full green bars, but you end up losing battles and exchanges that you know you should be winning. It is very noticeable. I UNDERSTAND THAT RED BARS HAPPEN. That's not at all what this is about. We have a shrinking (thinking that could change for a bit) player base right now and some playlists will have people playing each other from all over because that's all there is. The point is Bungie very obviously shows Green Bars when that is not the case. Let me see that before I spend 10 minutes losing exchanges that should be won. I don't care about the loot enough to play through a red bar match. Player: "is there connection issues right now?" Game: "Nope, every player is connected great!" Player: *starts to accept they are a scrub. Shaxx: "30 Seconds Guardians!" Game: "Oh yeah, there was connection issues that game btw." Player: "........" Game: *Rewards Player Mote of Light Just show the true connection that is all I ask. It feels like Green Bars get slapped over Red Bars to keep people in the games because they would then have the issue of way too many people dropping out of games early. I still love Destiny because I play mostly PvE. Lets face it though most the community is PvP and it would be cool to see my friends list filled with Destiny again instead of 2 players.

    I have seen some very strange things happen during the last week or so; Iron banner match; everything started normally, but I could not kill or even damage anyone. At one point I was in the middle of three or four players on the other team and they did not even know I was there! I was meleeing and shooting, with them right on top of me and they did not react at all. I checked connections and everyone was full green. Another match, started normally. I run to the spark, but there is no spark, and no other players around, not even on radar. Meanwhile I can hear the sounds of combat and hear the normal commentary ('the enemy has the spark', etc.) I run around a bit more, but it is clear I am the only player in this instance. Again, I check my connection and have a full green bar. Also, a lot of times as I am flying into a match, there were no ships flying with me, so I figure I am joining a match in process. Then an image, that looks like a maze of walls, seen from above, flashes very briefly on the screen, and then I am 'removed from the game world'. Again, I have a full green bar. This happened enough times so that as soon as I saw that brief image of walls (which was a different image each time this happened) I knew I would then be removed from the game world. Each time, I would check my connection; you guessed it, full green.
