ok, so i live in Australia but i have been playing the game for some time now and never have i experienced so much lag. Before you ask, This Probelm Has Absolutley Nothing To Do With My INTERNET Speed, Or my ISP.
but i'm interested in hearing if other people are experiencing lag as well and any help would be much appreciated. but i have already rung my ISP and asked them and they say its not them.

    Not to be the bearer of bad news, but your data packets have to travel from Australia to the US. Sometimes your ISP routes them around the globe in non-logical, or straight line ways. Network issues for online gaming aren't always fun to deal with.

    Please run several traceroutes and let us know what is shown.

    Please also review the networking info in our FAQ. Let us know what you have tried and what errors you have gotten.

    not that it will help resolve any issues for you, but for what it's worth, I've been experiencing much higher than normal lag ever since the last patch. It seems to come and go throughout the day, but way more lag than I have ever had before. I've also been told by others in game that they too have had bad lag over the last few days. I could be wrong, but seeing how I do live in the U.S., I'm not so sure this is a problem associated with location.
