So I haven't been experiencing the massive lag/disconnects people have been touting. While there are occasional drops or re-syncing it happens about maybe 1/10 times. There was even a recent poll asking how many games people manage to complete and the majority was 90% which is a 10% drop rate. Definitely no where near the "I drop every freaking game" people have been saying.
Does that make those people lying? definitely not, does that mean the 10% drop is acceptable? definitely not for a competitive game. Some of these issues I don't even think is Ubisoft's fault. Recently there was a PS4 update which screwed a lot of peoples connection up.

So I'm hoping we the community can try to help narrow a solution to help Ubisoft. If you have good connection or bad please post your specs/platform.

I didn't have issues pre latest patch. I was on an hour ago and for the first time I actually saw piles of what appears to be lag, and users skipping around. I got disconnect 3 times out of 7 or so games (including those 3 times).
Last night I was playing with same group of people I normally play with and the whole (recovering network) message game up every few seconds in 1 match until basically it crashed.

i have days where i get no connection errors whatsoever.
-then i have days where i get disconnected 4 times for ever successful match completion. the disconnects are never the same either... sometimes, the match will start, and there will be a "reconnecting to server" or whatever it says, and blammo, i'm gone.
-other times, it'll be a cascade of disconnects. a player will d/c, then one on my team, then another from the other team, and i know it's coming for me next... blammo, i'm gone.
-the worst are when i get ALMOST to the end of the match. either my team or the other team is breaking with 2 guys left, and nobody has disconnected the whole match. BLAMMMO OUTTA NOWHERE!!! i'm gone.

It's easy to believe there are no issues if you dont have them yourself, and it's a given that a lot of people exaggerate the scale of their issue. Forum 101. But For Honor does have serious network / P2P / Error issues, that have hit most people to greater or less degrees. I have had more issues in this game than anything else I have played in the last 30 years. I also belong to several other forums, and while forums are always a negative place and skewed towards the unhappy people, those other forums are full of posts about gameplay issues, balance, items, OP classes and weapons. These forums are predominantly about connection problems. This tells you something is very wrong in For Honor land. There is no smoke without fire.

I had my issues with disconnection but in the end I figured out my problem... and it was a bad problem.
My ISP couldn't allow acces in some of the port For Honor uses, I called them day and night but in the end I had to change ISP... all problem solved and I don't get disconnected anymore.
The same problem was having a friend of mine with the same ISP and he solved it at the same way.
So I think we got a problem but it is not entyrely UBi fault....I think our ISP are lieing to us.

I wouldn't say it's exaggerated at all.
