on some servers there is much lagg and on other nearly no lagg.
its just weird because the server browser doesnt show it properly.
i can join to a server with a ping of 60 (yeah my internet isnt very good)
and you can have extreme lagg or no lagg.

i think this will be fixed soon.
but on some servers its really playable.

I have never lagged ingame till this and out of my 30 online matches only 2 didnt lag to the point of being unplayable. i personally put the game up untill its fixed. save your money buy it later when its cheaper and working properly.

i wouldnt buy this game till its actually patched. i have yet to play an online game that wasnt completely unplayable because of lag. even if it is patched to 'fix' lag, it will probably just reduce it. i cant say i have a lot of faith in splash damage for releasing their game in the current 100% unplayable state. if you cant make a game even mildly playable at release, you probably cant fix it either.

i phoned bethesda about the lag, they said there are no dedicated servers, the first console to start a game is the host instead, so lag dependent on who is hosting and what they're doing with their internet line at the time. it needs the net code to include some ping checks to shift the hosting to the console with the best upload speeds... then the lag will be less.
