I believe TDM is screwing up Season 16 by overloading the servers now with to many players, because a lot of people on PC and Console are getting massive lag in just about every game.
It is true however, if you live in a good location, right next to the servers, you might not ever see anything.
But do some research and Google around and this forum, it's been really a big problem too on the Xbox.
If EA isn't going to upgrade the servers, TDM needs to be removed, there's already way top much congestion/traffic for these servers to handle properly.
I've been playing since Day 1, I now see every other game all the red network symbols appear in the upper right and extreme bad lagging, worse than any other season in the history of this game.
There is major foulup a foot that needs fixing.
