Lag Issue Since Last Patch

Hey guys. I searched for lag and of course got tons of results, but not about this specific issue I want to ask about. Has anyone else dealt with this lag issue since the last patch? I'm not talking about general lag comp, normal connection lag, etc. I'm talking about the issue where 1 or 2 times in a few hour span the entire game starts to lag out to where you and no one else can even move. It does this for maybe 30 seconds to over a minute before it goes to the screen acting like it's migrating hosts. Then it returns and sometimes the game works OK, but other times it continues to lag for a bit longer. Some guys I play with that also play on XBox said this is not an issue on that console.
I've personally only seen this specific type of lag since the last update.
YEs, a couple of people have reported this. I have personally had it happen to me a few time last week... but not over the weekend. It usually ends with a host migration.
It happens to me and my friends or randoms at least twice a night. Maybe the game just really picked a very bad host, haha. I've always seen host migrations, but never started lagging out so bad where you couldn't even move. Usually you just start skipping all over the place when it's about to lag out.
Lag: Its happening, has been happening, and will continue to happen. Last patch has made it worse, along with the ammount of people throttleing their internet connection. Game is S.N.A.F.U.
1) It's all in your mind.
2) It's your connection.
3) We are not aware of any issues.
Pick one of the three choices and you can save your time discussing it here and/or contacting Activision. They will never accept responsibility or even admit that there is a problem.
It's not going to get fixed.
You forgot one: Submit a support ticket.
It's funny how I see so many complaints about the same thing and yet they can still tell me it's because of my console/internet/router settings. It's like we all got together and set our connections the exact same way then started to complain when none of them worked.
Yeah, I've had this problem. And many others. BUT ONLY WITH MW3.
It will ultimately catch up with them.

Once the money stops flowing like milk and honey they will address the problems.
