Bad Network & Game Lag Post Winter Update

Hey folks!

I'm getting some pretty horrendous lag starting immediately with the Winter Offensive update. I haven't tested other game modes, but all the W.O. game modes the lag is just miserable. 

I have a fiber internet connection 1GBPS, CAT6 to my PC, normally running about 20-30 ping on BF6. I am not seeing ping below  60 in the new game modes, and the ping feels more like 150-200 to me; comparable to when I lived in a different country. The lag is bad enough I am getting killed around corners, having some minor visual glitches like weapon-swap or grenade throwing animations being partially to fully skipped, bad hit registration etc. 

Not sure what's up with it. Ran into a DICE dev in a match and several of us were talking about the lag. The dev suggested setting my Steam friends status to OFFLINE, and then relaunching BF6. That seems to have helped very mildly (5 ping??) but did not resolve the issue.

    I had same issue and when using overlay you could see the "sim" spike, but turning the steam friends to offline solved it for me.
