Ping times to local servers on a broadband connection range from 60-150 but on average are around 100-120. Has this been recognised as an issue or is this the way the game will be played forever?

I only spent $22 on the game but I'm currently over it for the above reason and want to know if this will be rectified in the future.

As far as i know it is currently under investigation. So yes, it is recognised as an issue.

I'm glad someone brought this up because this should be the number one priority, rubber banding issues are getting out of hand

I played the beta for 28 hours over the 2 weeks and didn't experience lag once, even though there were more 64 player servers back then.

Now, practically every server lags, and it's usually 200+ ping lag that makes it unplayable. Something has definitely happened since release.

Rubber banding tanks are an amusement though. Especially when they continue to rubber band after they've been destroyed. Flaming flying Panzer IV anyone? :D

I have noticed that on servers with over 50 or so players my ping is always above 140 despite the server browser saying 50-90. God help me if its a full 64 player server, 250+ ping. When players leave to a total of under 35-40, my ping drops to around 80.
