@Tobonaut Not an issue that I'm encountering or have encountered recently for a while at least. Although I'm in the UK and running with a reported speed of 515Mbps with Google's project stream speedtest https://projectstream.google.com/speedtest I might also suggest checking gcping.com and see what kind of latency you are getting to the Google's regional hubs. I usually get around the 20-25ms to the nearest London hub, That doesn't mean to say that everything should be good for all users. Some things I've seen since launch happen are: 1. Sometimes Google is doing stuff on their network and that has an impact on performance for users, sometimes it is associated with a few titles but not all titles, I guess it depends on where in the n/w changes are taking place. 2. In cases such as above, the issue typically is resolved after a few hours or a day at most. If the issue still isn't resolved after a day then escalate it to support and provide them with whatever information that they require. Also make sure to complete any survey that you get prompted with after finishing a game. 3. If lag has been an issue from day one and has never been resolved, chances are that it is more likely to be an issue local to the user rather than a Google issue (although of course it could be an issue on the Google side, just less likely imho). Things to look at with regards to crappy Chrome performance are: Do you get the same issue with Chromecast Ultra performance. If you get good performance on CCU and bad on Chrome then probably more reason to think that Chrome is the area to look at. Reset Chrome flags - go to the URL chrome://flags , select "Reset all to default", restart Chrome and try again. Run Chrome and use an Incognito window and see if that helps, disable any extensions that might have been added. Reduce refresh rate on mouse pointer (usually a feature on some mouse drivers). Access Chrome flags and enable the feature "Enables pointer lock options". On Windows 8 run Chrome in Windows 7 compatibility mode. Black screen on Chrome, try: Chrome flags and set Hardware accelerated video decode to Disabled. Try using Chrome Canary instead and see if that resolves any issues
