What platform do you play on?
PC

What mission / challenge / NPC / or in-game items does this affects?
- Manning National Zoo
- Summit
- DARPA
- Pentagon
- Countdown (possibly related but it's always been a laggy/buggy zone so not sure)
- Camp White Oak


What is the issue you encountered?
Severe lag causes following issues based on my many tries, at this point I just don't go to these zones.

General behavior
 - enemies teleport around
 - outcast exploding guys blowup out of nowhere, next to you, sometimes they run into a corner stand there a few second and explode
 - shots take 1-2 seconds to show up in scrolling combat text and health bars
 - status effects take 2-3 seconds to show up after shots
 - shooting enemies can result in taking no damage, then teleporting away and dying
 - changing skills takes 1-2 second to register
 - activating skills can sometimes cause them to activate and de-activate and go on cooldown
 - throwing turret will let you place it but left button no longer registers so you can't actually drop the skill just move it around, retry fixes it
 - starting to throw a turret will just drop it at your feet instead of letting you place it on the map (same for mines)
 - skills can go gray and never come back, reset via death or fast travel
 - enemies get stuck in spawn rooms after door closes; chem launcher, fire launcher, emp+vile can eventually kill them 
 - can get shot and killed after being in cover for a second
 - 1-shot kill from explosions which show up after you die

Manning National Zoo
 - Monorail does not work, unable to finish

Manning National Zoo (invaded)
 - Mortar explosions, this is already a mess since the explosion happens a second after the red circle, now explosion happens first then shows red circle
 - EMP station just happens with blue circle having no relation to when the EMP/damage effect occurs
 - Final fight, some stations will come open up and close within a second, finished by standing next to each one and waiting for it to become vulnerable, took a few tries to complete
  
Summit
 - General lag behavior from above

Darpa
 - Final boss fight, he calls down mortars which can kill you then show the circles before you can dodge them, insta-kill, could not complete after a few tries
  
Pentagon
 - Final fight quad-copter gets stuck behind the outer wall and unhittable, no way to finish mission, dying and retrying worked but hard with copter teleporting around

Camp White Oak
 - The double glass door inside the cabin never became active and unable to open, no way to finish mission
  

What steps did you take in-game before the issue occurred?
 - Just playing the game, nothing special

Please try to upload a few screenshots or a short under 2-minute video clip, that clearly demonstrates the issue
 - Screencaps don't do justice to lag 🙂
