I'm just curious here. I came from the Xbox 360 version to the PC so I really don't know what I should be expecting here. Whenever I get a game that has a ping around or under 100 the framerate is spectacular for me. If there are a bunch of chumps in the game with 400+ pings, or my ping is too high lag the performance goes down the drain. I really don't know how to describe this, but it just feels like the lag spikes are acting just like Crysis 1 when you overdid your graphics settings. Is this the status quo for the game on PC? If so I guess its time to really hunt for a good clan with a solid server that I can connect to while pinging under 100.

Yes......all that happened after patch 1.9

Before patch 1.9 when ever there was lag in a map it meant that the players
where freezing while you could move around the map.(for others you are freezing too of course)

Now...after patch 1.9 whenever there is lag there is a major fps drop....

Something is really wrong with latest patch...
Either CRYTEK has to fix that with a next patch...or it has to be fixed by GPU driver updates.

MAXIMUM LAG!!
