Need to have a serious talk about server lag

Just taking a moment to note that this one sympathizes with the core concern, but has found the rebuttal exchange highly informative.

It is impossible to play due to the amount of lag, especially in pvp.
A shame and lack of consideration with the players.
After I’ve played another 500 hours, I’m about to give up.
I realized it’s much worse after the last major update.

Yeah but that was unavoidable since it ran smooth as butter on TestLive all up until launch.

No, wait, it was an ungodly lag fest for weeks.
