Hello, My name is ROTT I do NOT work for BUNGIE but will address your situation accordingly.. Although it is not a given at this point, it should be.. Any time there is a patch given to a system of mechanics before the actual reset of those mechanics there will be severe lag issues.. It is not intended as it is expected that these mechanics should run smoothly.. it is not always the case.. From reading what you have stated it is quite clear that what you and your fireteam of whoop ass have encountered was legit lag and or system confusion.. As patches are released I feel that they are not actually set in motion until a "reset" date.. this patch is one of those rare incidents where certain guidelines are set in the system but in effect are indeed NOT full until reset.. so you either had a mix of lag and system confusion OR it was legit lag.. do NOT expect awesome gameplay from ACTIVISION just after a patch is released.. we all should know this by now.. Im sorry it is this way.. but is indeed reality.. We make Activision's struggle look like a visit to Mt. Rushmore but your face is involved.. :) Have a Nice Day
