Were the pvp servers affected by the 3.0.0

I've noticed that since beyond light that consistency in damage registration has been fairly low. I've NEVER had bullets full on not register or players lagging on this level. My internet upload speed isn't great being 1.5mb, but I am getting 18 mb down and I have not had issues as bad as what I've noticed after beyond light dropped. To quote the TWAB: [quote]You may remember a TWAB from last September where we mentioned some under-the-hood changes we would be making in the 3.0.0 update and how we expected there might be bugs and side effects. One of the big changes we made is that previously we had two “streams” of network traffic: One for gameplay simulation stuff like AI, and another for handling activity stuff like playing music, showing mission objectives, playing dialogue, etc. With update 3.0.0 we combined this traffic into a single stream. Another thing adding to the traffic are the tons of Cabal enemies wielding flamethrowers in Season of the Chosen – especially in Battlegrounds. Continuing with the highway analogy, flamethrowers are like tanker trucks. They’re notoriously taxing and in this case are creating a lot of network usage. We have some improvements to their efficiency that should help, in an update scheduled for later this month. [/quote] Although I'm not experienced with networking...I feel like this has some correlation to the increase in overall lag I've been experiencing since beyond light. With 12 player matches, there can be some real chaos going on and to close one of the "roads" as they explained it, it would cause an uptick in latency wouldn't it? I don't know if they did do this for pvp, but if so I hope they look into it because it's really hard to enjoy quickplay with auto rifle bullets full on not registering or players teleporting around the map. Those teleporting players existed beforehand, but this feels worse than it was before by a LOT.
