I actually had a game recently with an average of no less than 550-600ms ping! The friend I was playing with was having only 30ms, while the third experienced sluggishness on his side as well. But, surprisingly, the game felt decently smooth and playable. There was a very high amount of no regs, the most frustrating moment being a full purple mag of Wingman rounds hitting the target (8 consecutive hits is an achievement in itself) but not getting confirmed / registered by the server. We ended up 4th, I managed to do almost 900 damage despite the no regs and scored a kill (frustratingly got eliminated 2 seconds before the other 3 enemies that I've downed got wiped out by the closing ring.
This game felt better than many others at normal ping (40-70ms) and came as a confirmation to my belief that network instability weighs much more than high lag when it comes to bad experiences.
