- A few of us have been chatting on the SKY forums and a SKY rep finally confirmed the problem is with Level 3 in Montreal.
- Left posting until now as I was getting by using WTFast but now even with a GPN, today in particular; I was getting horrible lag all over the world map. Didn't matter if I had the GPN running or not it was exactly the same.

2 of my friends on Plusnet who also route via Level3 and they have no problem. Glad I switch over from sky to Virgin yesterday.

Edit: also the problem should of been fix for sky user on 22th jan posted and confirmed by a few sky user on their forum who play this game.

- Lag issues occuring since roughly 2.1 patch, constant problems to the point where the game is almost unplayable. 1-2 minute waits when talking to NPC's, major lag for 10 seconds at a time, and disconnected roughly every ten minutes. I really hope these issues are resolved soon it's getting quite upsetting

- basically since 2.1 I've been rubber banding constantly it appears worse during prime time but I also think it may just be anecdotal.

S-E, what the hell. It's been more than a month. Get with it and get this fixed.
