We've identified an issue causing the huge lag spikes on our official servers and are restarting them one-by-one to apply the fix. We're going to leave some servers as 48p, while others will be upgraded to 64p. Our next steps will be to increase the pool of official servers, and start doing improvements to the matchmaker. Thank you for your patience during our rocky launch!

The lag on the matchmaking servers is something to do with the matchmaker trying to connect a heap of players at once as soon as a slot frees up, so the matchmaker essentially DDOS's the servers.Marox says I'm wrong on that one.
Just to be clear, there isn't and never has been any DDOS happening due to matchmaking. The official servers had some issues unrelated to this, and were spiking in waves -- you'd see packet loss and everyone's ping skyrocket. This was what was fixed.
Yeah please, add more south america frontline servers all are full 24/7.
We're on it!
