My observation

Game just came out I realize that. Played the hell out of the demo, really enjoyed it. I have no issues with game play, its very entertaining and a breath of fresh air.
Was playing with my boss, the two of us work for a major ISP doing highest echelon trouble shooting for internet/pc connectivity and VOIP soft switch errors etc. This puts me in a unique situation. I work on my own account. I pinged the local UBR, and my individual node. No loss. Just ran a 500x ping test from behind my own router on a FQDN. Zero loss. The lag in this game is very noticeable. The two of us got booted 7 times in a row and separated. Ran a speed test on speedtest.net. 33 mbps down 3.7 mbps up on the closest server. Ran a second test out in San Diego about as far as I can get from my location. Around 19 mbps down and 2.5 up consistently. Lots of host migration issues, and in game lag for me. I have had issues with other EA titles before and server side client issues that went unresolved for a looooong time. This is not on my end. Anyone else experiencing similar issues?
