Did the patch make gameplay worse for anyone else?

I'm not complaining about what the patch did or did not fix, nor am I complaining about the download method. After I successfully installed the patch, my online experience went to crap. Prior to the patch I never had any lag and I rarely ever got booted/disconnected. After I got the patch my screen was skipping all over the place, players were disappearing and reappearing and one round my entire team was invisible, all I could see were their names above their heads bobbing around on the screen. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced thia and was curious if it was just maybe a server by product being that everyone was trying to download and install the patch at the same time.

nope, no problems for me. I just wish I had read the update on the site about how to download the patch --- I repeatedly yelled at my PS2 and zipper for sending a corrupt file, making me delete it, and re-download the file again only to have the same thing happen. I wasted a half hour doing that lol.

But yeah, my gameplay was pretty good --- though I only had about a half hour to play

Hopefully my problems were just because of the number of people trying to install the patch. I did it yesterday around 4pm EST. I'll try again tonight when I get home from work and see if it's any better.

I have cable/broadband connection. No router, the modem is connected directly to my PS2 via ethernet cable. It is the only thing online in my entire home. That's why I'm stumped there shouldn't be any connection issues.

Yea I had a few problems after downloading the patch but as someone already said it could be because of the thousands of people doing the same thing at the same time. My problems were mainly lag and 2 disconnects, one while in the lobby picking a room and another while I was throwing a grenade. I have tested this out and it seems to be my biggest disconnect problem, I run around with a grenade whilst holding the fire buttin in so when I see an enemy I just release and yea you get the idea, everytime I do this I get disconnected so I think I need to stop .

Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah people.

Actually, I did hit some lag that was worse than anything I've had so far. With my cable connection, it's not usually something I run into. I think you hit it on the head with the patch download scenario.
