I disagree with those that say we've won nothing. Red bars don't lie, so if we see less of them and therefore less laggy gameplay, then surely the most logical conclusion that can be made is a more weighted connection based system over skill based. I'd also argue that there are players who play the crucible to such an extent that they could easily identify skill based connections immeditely. So lets wait and see, I don't think Bungie could take another misinformation scandal so I believe they'll be true to their word.
