IS THIS A JOKE?! NOTHING was done to fix the netcode.

I shouldn't have to buy another service for a service I'm already paying for. It's like buying a car and there like ooooo you wanted a whole car, you have to buy the actual engine to use it sorry. It's a horrible analogy but you understand, yes some people's isp is to blame but I for one never had lag issues till this patch. All in all square needs to implement more servers across the play base. Customer service is the utmost importance. Aka stop being cheap. Unless in there company model customers don't come first. And if money comes before custom service is that a company you want to associate with?

I would argue it's more like paying to use a direct toll-road rather than a congested public highway that goes the long way around.

I would never pay extra for VPN/Tunnelling services. I also am EU-based and had terrible lag. There are fixes in place that may help. See my post (#41). Have you tried those? Leatrix's application in particular was very effective.

If you haven't tried those fixes yet, can you try them and respond in thread if they have been effective for you?

Complaining about it may very well cause SE to fix it, but in the meantime, why not see if you can compensate for it a bit yourself?

You're right. So why don't you call your ISP and complain they are giving you a terrible connection to the SE servers? You pay for good service that you clearly aren't getting.
