EA/DICE can you at least respond to our request. The OOR “Out OF Region” issue creates community confusion as to what is going on with the game. Some blame their internet, rage quit, when it has more to do with US servers being hampered and inundated by the advantageous way out of region Japanese, Germans, BR on and on. These OOR is a known issue they all know it we know it and they are taking full advantage of it at our expense. Is this FAIR.
The worst are the brazilian players. At least the japanese players just lag up the place and is annoying but brazilians go out of their way to cheat or break the game. I’ve never seen a group of players actively try to sabotage matches before these people. Like they will split up in the beginning, take all the vehicles and hand it off to their friends on the other team. Then switch teams.
I’ve witnessed this first hand numerous of times. It can’t be a coincidence. I wish all US servers kicked non US players by default.
how do they go out of their way to cheat and break the game?
they have no servers in south America to play on, they are forced by the will of DICE to play OOR.
plus its not only them that do crappy vehicle drops, seen many US/EU players do it too.
Japan is the main issue. As they have their own servers. And they come in their droves. It’s not just one or two of them. And I don’t even care if they get a slight advantage. It’s the fact that the server turns to mush when there is a good few of them. Like taking 5 attempts to jump out of the water on lumphini gardens. Or trying to shoot one of them jumping out of the water on lumphini, and they teleport 6 feet away from the edge.
OFFICIAL COMMENT please EA?
Does anyone have Twitter and could send a link for this post to tigge (Dave Sirland). He seems to reply to most questions from gamers, regarding bf 4 issues.
The bottom line is guy’s that they don’t care I have had this game since it launched and this has been a issue since day one and they have been told about it over and over again and they still do nothing and say nothing the best way to make them hear you is to not buy there next game hurt them in there pocket and then they will take notice. But that being said we should continue to bitch at them because we do deserve a straight answer.
I think the problem with the Japanese has become a lot worse over the last 4 possibly 5 months. Game was broken at launch, but never ever noticed the Japanese on eu / us servers much.
Its bad enough most people won’t use their mics but when your team is full of Japanese you simply can’t communicate.
Looking at their scores is frustrating too. I used to think every Japanese player was extremely good at this game but they are just getting oor advantage ?
This game is not changing the game is just designed to work this way due to cheaping out on server’s. Take away oor advantage and watch the servers improve its that simple.
While I would like an official update from DICE on this topic (acceptance, rejection, etc.), I am encouraged and happy to see DICE’s CTE changes on other aspects of BF4 (e.g. jets, attack helicopters).
It shows that DICE wants to continue its great efforts to capture the casual gamer demographic.
It shows that DICE really cares about catering BF4 to us casual gamers.
