: I think that could be quite close to the truth - if game moves you very fast : between teleporters instead of actually teleporting (or maybe it : interpolates between frames) then I guess sometimes it'll decide that you : hit the overshield on the way over. If it's host-related, then maybe it : only happens at certain pings, where the conditions are just right or : something. : [/wild speculation] Obviously Bungie has programmed the teleporters to break your spartan into his component molecules, wisked away in a swirling invisible cloud across the map, to be reassembled at the other teleporter, instead of simply spawning your character at the teleporter coords. If 50% of your mass comes in contact with the OS, it counts as having grabbed it.
