A few weeks ago I started noticing a bit more spikes.... but, I still don't DC or crash but once every few weeks. But, i'm only like 600 miles from the server.... soo.... yeah; but, no in the past week or so I've noticed no difference, other than that people who consistently teleport around the map actually DC. That being said, I've noticed significantly more people (all of which have at least 150-200ms ping) doing the moonwalk in battle when I'm chasing them.
