I cannot fathom why Orbital Strike lag is still in the game. Multiple patches have come and gone so there can only be three reasons why it hasn't been fixed:
1) The issue is so extremely technically complex that even after months and months of trying to fix it, Crytek/EA have been unsuccessful.
2) Fixing it is not even on their list of priorities.
3) They are completely unaware this massive bug even exists.

1) Very likely
2) Very unlikely
3) Wrong, They are aware of this issue.

Its like there never was any quality control team for this game ever. There just couldn't have been for it to have released with as many problems as it did.

It's the only bug I've wanted gone since release, other bugs were not so impacting on the gameplay. :/
