In the last update they have a better server, located in South America. In fact, it is located in Brazil so they will get faster connection and less of this problem.
That very well may be so
zuperman however they play this game
KNOWING that they are bullet proof because they are lagging so much and brag about it too. (which you can view a post below from a well-respected & known player on the blacklist thread)
Others when asked in Portuguese about their apparent invulnerability either don't reply or quickly leave the mission.

Each one bragging about having a "bullet shield" and laughing when we complained they where lagging. Im sry, but im TICKED! these guys know something, because they are vertually unkillable. They wont die, yet they fight back. What kind of bull sh! T is this!! They are all using a lag switch or something. All 7, (note, none flew together, they where all dif in a dif game) ruined all 7 dif games. Killing me countless times in each game while they refused to die.
And
YES zuperman, I know I don't even have a fraction of the knowledge you possess about the game & lagging, etc... however when I first ran into Predador FAB (now Predador N.W.O.) I started researching lag & the causes & uses of it.
What I found out was that yes, natural lag exists in many, if not most online multi-player games. Yet what I also found out is there are both physical & software versions of 'lag switches' & 'flooding programs'
After reading many, many forum posts in various other games online I found that some developers/moderators got to the point of issuing stern warnings that use of any such devices or software would lead to permanent banning &/or deleting of the accounts of any players discovered using them.
Also I found out there are low-speed connection kickers. So that anyone lagging too bad is bumped from the game.
If purposely lagging was as you put it - like burning down your house to take care of termites - then why would anyone use such a device if it was useless.. and why would gaming moderators in other games issue such a warning? Perhaps just to appease the 'conspiracy theorists' ???
I honestly don't know.. that's why I am asking.
And if a player continues playing knowing he is bulletproof & invulnerable to other players attempts to kill him regardless if he in a plane or a tank.. then isn't that player in effect 'cheating'?
