i don't know if this has been mentioned before.
about half the maches i'm playing sometimes for entire matches only certain things are delayed by several minutes including:
kill and death notifications and accompanying scores
health and armor amounts
chat messages
death blackout
phase gate flash from teleporting
it's very annoying and makes it very diffucult to play because i don't know how badly damaged i am and if i need to get health and armor or to keep fighting and sometimes my weapons will not even be selectable so i can't even use them.
has anyone else seen this problem?

1) Very few people can respond to threads in the bug-report forum
2) It'll get better visibility there
Probably it won't work, but its still always worth a try when nobody has got a clue what to do.
So type "record <the name of the demo>" in your console after joining a game. I recommend you record your game into the same filename so that it overwrites the previous recorded games. Otherwise you end up having a massive filesized ns folder.
If it doesn't work, try reinstalling ns and maybe temporary changing your video mode.
