Game Playing at Double Speed?
Hello, for two matches I encountered a bizarre glitch, the game was playing at double speed. Like, for everyone, the game was accelerated by like 2x. It is the most bizarre thing I have ever experienced in a video game.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Was this matchmaking? Which game did it happen in? Were you just running and jumping faster or did you shoot faster?

If it was a custom game or one of the Infection modes, player speeds can be set to be extra fast, so what you experienced could have been entirely normal.

Normal social matchmaking. Here is the game in question, sorry about my friend talking in the background in discord

edit: didn't trim the video properly and had some personal info visible, reuploading in a sec

The HD Version is still processing, but this is the video of the game https://youtu.be/Ur2tyHvDbw0
You really are sped up! I played a few matches with someone a long time ago with a similar issue. In campaign the body movements went faster than the voice lines and the music so the cutscenes become more out of sync the longer they went on.

How accurate is the video? Is there lag because of the recording? Other players are moving very strangely, as if there were frame drops. It's like they move along jagged edges instead of smooth lines. Laggy players usually have bigger "gaps" or "jumps" or some kind of randomly happening discrepancy being corrected for, this looks like it's constantly happening on a small scale.

Sometimes you stop in place for split-seconds. I think this stuff is a result of the game trying to stay in sync.

Could be a combination of lag and Discord not playing nicely with MCC. I've noticed that occasionally Discord will freak out when streaming games, causing said games to also freak out.

I would wager it is down to bad or fluctuating bandwidth... I get similar sped up jumps, but they are not constant like this.

you finally experienced 60fps

This recording, aside from any Youtube Encoding stuff, should be incredibly accurate, this was recorded in Shadowplay. I had 2 games like this. I was getting some weird "framedrops"as if the game was unable to keep up with me. But yeah, what you see is what I saw.

lol is it the interpolation breaking or something
I don't know where to start with troubleshooting. Update your drivers? You could send in a bug report to 343i. They will eventually read it and respond, they might even have a suggestion for fixing it.

I have no idea, I'll probably send a report to 343. I deleted the game via going to the folder, deleting it, and verifying game cache. I did this because I had screwed around with some Reshade presets in the past and thought maybe that was the issue. When I got into a game, I thought it was fixed, but over the course of the match it sped back up to 2x speed again. It's completely bizarre. I'm uploading the match where it did that right now.

The strangest thing about it, is how it sped up on it's own. Like, what in my system or internet has changed that it just does that? Not like a one-off bug either, everytime I play.
