Another thing I forgot to mention in my previous post was this..
Ever since patch 14.4 I get random screen freezes. My screen just hangs there for about 5-10 seconds, looks like I'm about to LD, then suddenly snaps back to life. Anyone else getting this? Happens only in missions. ALL the lag issues happen only in missions for me. Even in the center of trade during peak hours, the worst I get is reduced frame-rate, but throw me in a mission and the game goes nuts.
Still no official reply about this..
