Anyone else having a sudden case of Lag that is bordering on being simply stupid today?

Played MWO for hours last night.. had no problems.. today... 3 matches, 2 computer restarts.. and Im warping/jerking around in the matches as if im trying to play on a old 14.4k modem....

Anyone else suddenly having issues today?

I cant see how it'd be me when im still showing full speeds on my net......

*edit* my pings in matches are also in the 40-60 range most of the tim as well... only saw it hit 100 once.. I have NO idea what the hell is going on.. but the game is almost completely unplayable suddenly.

*Edit #2* Just played another match and kept the scoreboard up for most of it.... For some, insain reason my ping is starting out at 40's.... ocasionaly hopping ot 100's.. Then for no aparent reason.. mid-match.. it'll start spiking up to the 500-600 range. For no reason what-so-ever...Match ends.. ping goes back down to 40's... try a new match.. again, starts out at 40's... start actually fighting. spikes to 500+.

The hell?

Every once in a while I get a match that apparently just makes a bad connection to the server or where everyone in the game is just out of sync. It's impossible to play that round but it only happens rarely.

I get ping spikes like what you're describing after I've been playing for a couple of hours sometimes. It's the memory leak that causes it for me. Restarting the game fixes it for me. Don't know if that may be what's causing it for you but the next time it happens I'd open task manager and see how much memory it's using. If it's anything over 400k then you probably want to see if a restart fixes it. If that doesn't work I have no idea. Might try the repair tool and/or submitting a support ticket

I see it, I think it's a memory issue in the title. Cause I'll get that then get a memory error and crash out if I play in excess of 3 hours or so.

Yea it's been an issue for quite a while now. This game seems to be very memory and cpu intensive as opposed to gpu.
