On the issues of network connectivity, you see complaints about this for every single game and the answer is never as easy as ''the servers can't handle the current load.''

Many more knowledgable people than me investigated issues like this and found that many of the issues come from the ISP himself. In terms of routing a lot of things can go awry and especially for videogames this can hurt a lot. You never notice any of this when browsing Reddit or FB simply because it does not require your connection to be stable at all times and to find the required resources in a whiff. It does not matter if you take 100 or 2 million hops to find that one post on Reddit (probably not exactly how it works but you get the point) because tons of stuff will be cached and you'll probably not even notice.

So just saying there is a lot of things that can be improved, but some issues just do not have the simple answers people would like them to have. In an ideal case you should set a meeting with Konami and your ISP in order to work all of their shit out and get some high end routers and network cards (not mobile ones) in order to ensure 100% you won't get connection issues.

They already have resume, though.
