We have all experienced it. Sometimes it's tolerable. Other times it makes you want to unplug your machine. Please, share some of your most egregious examples of lag.

[Sailears]

 

Ok not lag in game, but inconvenient...

 

Recently I had an experience of being magnetised by an atlas on ghost LZ - was well clear of it (up the ramp into the first room, atlas was on the lower ramp), but several seconds after it's melee I get sucked back in and crushed.

[BurningLiquor]

I had the mother of all lag spikes today.

 

Enemies and players teleporting all over the place. No matter how much I shoot at the enemies, I just don't seem to do any damage whatsoever, the shots simply didn't register. I just kept dying, ended up burning 3 medigels and 2 ops packs just to get through that wave.

 

As soon as the wave ended the lag was completely gone and didn't reoccur for the rest of that game.

 

EDIT: I also forgot to mention I got magnet-nommed by a Praetorian twice today. Those claws can pull me in from quite an amazing distance.

Last time I tried the juggernaut. Terrible, just terrible. Imagine a lag oscillating from 2 to 4 seconds, and siege pulse almost never firing and, when they did, took dozens of tries to charge again. It was Vancouver, to make things even more ugly. However, the Juggernaut endured and barely went down. It's an OP piece of sh*t!

 

Also, was thrown off the servers during my two real attempts at platinum solos. First was wave 10, just after delivering the second pizza; the second was during extraction wave, some 30 before extraction. My controller hasn't recovered yet. Never tried again.

Just had an odd one earlier - ammo boxes completely stopped working on wave 3, even using ops packs wouldn't reload the gun so I spent 7 waves with nothing but powers basically ... we still got full extraction.

Running a duo, striving for 5 waves survived requirement. Sprinted safely past a banshee, only to find myself frozen in place. The screen jumps and suddenly I've been teleported back to said banshee, getting "clawed" into a death thus ruining the attempt. 

 

I'm not even going to begin to talk about disconnects

[didacuscarr]

They and in rage quits.

In my sig is some weird, but sort of cool sheet. It has Drell and Claymoar.

[78stonewobble]

Maybe not the worst moment... but still pretty darn infuriating.

 

Sniping with the black widow and ending up with the whole teleporting back and forth lag thing.

 

1. Aims for head of enemy...

2. Teleports and misses shot 1.

3. Scrambles to aim at head again because... you know the guy's getting closer... Puts it right on the head and...

4. Teleports and misses shot 2.

5. Repeat...

6. Ditto...

7. Incapped

8. *silent FU moment because of push to talk*

9. Ragegel?

10. ???

[Argent Xero]

Wave 3 was pretty interesting.

[Shampoohorn]

Not the worst, but definitely the one that left me the most disgusted: a dragoon roll dodged, so I lined up the perfect claymore headshot, except he blinked out of existence only to appear right next to me Smashing and Hornetting my health down to zero. Poorly made meta-game enemy p.o.s.

I was once in a hack on Dagger, got the message that I'd been downed, heard myself being revived + the corresponding message all while remaining upright, shooting at stuff. That was my cue to leave.

[N7BlackDahlia]

Gold/Rio/Cerberus sync killed by phantom, fall through the floor to get sync killed again and then not sync killed. I was so confused but very happy I wasn't dead or had to use med-gel. This sort of thing always happens to me on Rio...

Lol.. I had it once and my pretentious self thought that some other noob was downed. I even cursed "him" because I thought why the hell was "he" not with us in the escort. Only when I saw the killfeed......

 

 

Another time, me and my buddy were duoing as DAI carnifex against collector plat when on wave 10 devices I saw a praetorian advancing towards me as I was disabling the device. I whipped out my cobra and fired, nothing happened. He picked me up and as he was about to impale me, my rocket broke every dimension and killed him... I stood there for like 2 seconds.. My buddy was giggling.. Of course I've had worse lag experience but this one stands out as most memorable ...

[Catastrophy]

Playing with an American I got real bad lag and thought I was done for in a Gold match. Turned out it went like a bronze match for me, I was unkillable because the enemy didn't seem to notice me at all. I think I was invisible to the AI.

 

The others had more trouble, since the AI completely focussed on them. Can you imagine a Batarian with cloak features? That was quite funny.

[KalilKareem]

I lagged out in ghost once while running. My charater kept running right out of the map. Looking back I could see the entire structure. Interestingly it is huge, like 20 times the size of the actual firebase and at least 10 stories high. I wonder what plans they had for the rest?

I had one like that yesterday.
Destroyer.
Nothing worked.
Ops packs. Ammo crates.
Not even missiles or grenades.
Ended up getting kicked.

Two matches instantly spring to mind as memorable for me.

 

1. Playing with Dida and Knocking, I was an off-host Batarian Brawler Vanguard. We got Reapers/Glacier. I charged and hate-surfed a Marauder and all seemed well until I finished the punch and suddenly got sucked backwards across the entire upper lab and into the waiting arms of a Banshee. I'm talking I was at the area of waist-high cover near the little closest spawn point and got sucked all the way back across the lab to a Banshee that was standing in the corner stairs where the old "panic room" used to be.   I don't even... wat...

 

2. First game ever on PC. Quick Matched into a lobby that seemed normal. Game comes up Cerberus/Jade. And all the enemies are running around the map... roughly at about 6 or 7 feet above the ground. I was doing almost no damage to them at all. And by the time we did finally manage to get through the game, we all stood waiting in the LZ looooong after the timer hit 0:00 and eventually the game just lagged out entirely with no money given to anybody. I was dreadfully afraid this all meant my laptop couldn't support the game or had tragic framerates or something... you know, since that was my first time trying to PC game... but fortunately turns out that was just the Laggiest Lag That Ever Lagged and I was just so lucky to experience it. LOL

^My host should be infamous.

[DragonRacer]

^My host should be infamous.

 

Yeah, we can always tell when a host migration has picked you (or xain) as the lucky winner.

 

"OMG WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS????"

 

"Oh, Dida must be host now."

 

[ALTBOULI]

Had a game a few days back with around 10 second lag. The rest of my team had already reached the LZ and had extracted, while I was stuck at the back of Rio running in one spot with 10 seconds left on my timer

[Garrus1138]

I once got sync killed without even knowing what killed me. I stood near the ammo box on the opposite side of the LZ on FB Reactor when I just died. The only enemy who stood nearby was an Assault Trooper.

I think that your worst lag experience(in this case your best!) was when you kill stole that atlas from me on vancouver from the top of the ramp near the office using warlord and here i was about to land the killing blow with my krentinel to that atlas at the bottom ofthe ramp, and i see your name in the killfeed! Even my heavy melee made contact!!

   Oh man... That nemesis on the top of the map suddenly changed into a big atlas down below!! Yeah, that was fun but I was expecting that sort BS in that game tbh. What made that praetorian thing more memorable was that it was a very sudden high lag spike! Frankly when he picked me up, I had removed my hands from the keyboard and mouse in anticipation of the incoming spectator mode!
