...i played FFXI from PS2 launch until about 2 years ago (Abyssal.. no thanks). and Besieged lagged my ps2, PC, and xbox360 equally. Also.. i had SBCglobal high speed DSL at the time so.. idk.. SE just kinda dropped the ball. i only had lag during 1 arkfall (there were about 25 ppl.. and about 18 were using rockets or that laser SMG thing) . idk
The only problems I've had with Ark Falls are the sound effects just straight up stopping after a while apart from the sfx from my sub machine gun.
I haven't had any lag really apart from the odd hiccup where the game has dropped to single figure framerate!
Fibre Optic is the way to go!

just to be safe i bought a RROD repair kit for my xbox and will reflow it this weekend! Hopefully sledge is correct in saying that it wont freeze during launch! the beta was literally not playable for me! (the majority of the things in the world were invisible or i would constantly fall through the map)
i take it your using the OP Vot smg? if so this is why your sound cuts out, this is why you lag, and this is why you will freeze. that gun fries the xbox's ability to process to much brightness, to much speed, to much everything not to mention there are usually 2-4 people using it, this is why there is so much lag is because of people using this gun and just holding the trigger, next time fire it slow and notice the difference.
I've had plenty of the falling through the floor thing or the ground just disappearing and reappearing, group members characters not being there in front of me and just their green squares above their heads etc etc. It's old code in the beta. Should be fine for the retail version.
