I played the beta and everything went smoothly, very little lag and even fewer drops. Now that the official release is out I've had nothing but problems. I can't seem to get through a session without the server disconnecting or lagging horribly. Sometimes at character select screen connection is good then suddenly drops down to poor and then back up to good. When the match starts all is well for a few minutes then suddenly drops. Some drops are accompanied with bad lag, but most are very sudden. It has become tedious and annoying.
Everything on my end seems fine: good internet connection/speed, good ping, no mods, everything up-to-date.
I've really enjoyed The Forge and hope I can play more of it, but if this continues I won't be able to.
Thanks for any and all help.
Normal play.
