Well I've been on the beta for a week and a bit and I'm sitting the launch out I'm afraid.
Reason - big battles on Emerald at 10pm = OK (not great but playable). Big battles on Emerald at midnight = stupendous lag (we're talking 2-3 seconds here). Looking at the router console I can see it takes longer and longer for the server to respond - client is still sending plenty of data. The server is overloaded once the Eastern US starts playing - simple as that.
Now you could say "this is beta" and yes it is but this happens every night at around the same time. I don't believe that this game (or the server setup) is ready for pay-to-play.
Therefore I'm keeping my cash in my pocket until I see how this pans out. I don't trust ubisoft to do a decent job anyway....
