Some conditions that occur on live just cannot be tested on the PTR's, such as what happens when instance servers are loaded down with as many raids and 5 mans as are seen on a typical night or how Wintergrasp affects the hosts of players filling every nook and cranny of Northrend.
Anyway, at least the lag issues are fairly workable. We managed to clear 13/15 Naxx25 last night despite a number of wipes caused by 30 second lag spikes. Basically, where we'd normally clear 15/15 in about 3.5 hours, it took a full 4 to clear 13/15.
Reminiscent of the old ZG/MC days when lag spikes would render the raid impossible for 15-30 minutes at a time, but not nearly as bad (thank goodness).
They just need to fix it before Sunday when we put in more work on Heroic Sarth+3...
