Just wanted to drop a line to air the [increasingly frustrating] problem I've been having with growing regularity.
First, the Vanguard class, during MP matches this issue only seems to come into play while using the vanguard class. Can be anywhere from Wave 3 to wave 6, 7 or 9, but over the course of the game, my asari, human, drell, krogan warlord, etc will eventually start running at an incredibly slow pace, as if running on ice and only getting so far oh so slowly, then it'll sometimes start falling through the floor.. and keep falling.... and fall some more. In some cases I'll still be on the ground according to other people in my squad's accountings, other times I'll disappear entirely through the floor and be little more than a lil blue dot under the ground.
Even enemies sometimes sense my presence, coming over to my location with the likes of get pyro's and torching the ground... to no effect.. because I'm.. not exactly there. Other times I'll fall through the floor.. then re-appear in the sky, over the starting area.. then fall through the floor again.. and repeat.. helplessly, the only consolation to be gained is that come extraction time, I'm right where I need to be, but the fact I'm unable to do anything besides watch my character display a fall animation for the average 15 minutes of a game [not including the time in the game 'before' this happened] is incredibly, as you can imagine... annoying!
Had considered the possibility that it was a connection issue, having supposedly the best internetz in town can only achieve so much, but the fact that this only seems to happen to me when playing someone from the vanguard class has me convinced it's a bug and not something that stemmed from my internet connection, not to say that ISN'T the case... just that my going theory is that since it doesn't happen any other time to me unless playing that class, connection issue doesn't sound correct to me.

Second issue, though I heard there may be something in the pipeline from Chris Priestly that the next patch may correct this in some form [or may have misread it]. But it seems only when I utilize high-end equipment of the Mark II or III variety, I'll forcibly lose connection to the EA servers, even if just for a minute.... to be ejected from a game that is already at wave 6 or higher, to net no credits or xp and be 3 items down and all for naught, that is incredibly frustrating.

All that said, not expecting or demanding a fix [certainly not an immediate one] anytime soon, but first part of fixing a problem is knowing about it, well... now it is known. :]
