I don't understand why people are ignoring this or even downvoting this (Reddit/official forums). It really seems like:
1) "I'm not having this problem, so you shut up and just continue playing in lag, I don't care"
2) "Yeah lag is an issue but your solution is bad so I'm gonna say no to fixing it"
It's really sad that this attitude ("it's not my problem so your problem is irrelevant") is plaguing the community right now (we also observed this in the paragon debate). *SadPanda*
+1. Lag has always been an issue, but this season it might be absurd. We see many people switching from hardcore to softcore, and currently 60+ is unplayable (at least on EU, any time of the day, in a 4 man group). It's also really discouraging that people have to do certain measures just to counter the lag (make new games constantly, reduce the game difficulty, turn off damage numbers, remove area damage and life on hit, change to a spec that causes less lag - and away from the spec you really want to play).
In previous seasons the lag was at least only an issue for a few players in the top 100 bracket or so, and it got better and better recently, but this time it might actually affect a much larger playerbase.
