Surprised this thread is still kicking - between server lag and client ping (maybe other factors) I’ve mostly given up on sniper and 5 shot medic weapons and use the ‘spray and pray’ spam weapons. It’s nearly impossible to find a US East server with a grid of low ping players (under 100) and good consistent lag free server on xbone. Use the spray and pray with good soldier tactics and you should win a decent portion of 1 v 1 combats even if some of the bullets go poof into void or the soldier flies several meters across the screen, etc. Side note - ping is under 25 consistent and have a difficult time believing Incursions will be good without optimized servers. ---

Seems there is a quickmatch bug, placing US players in Euro servers and vice versa. Aside from that, would be nice to see a ping cap of at least 400… ---

It doesn’t have hundreds of ms’s in fluctuation like I see other people. Seriously though unless your ISP absolutely sucks, there is no reason anyone should be playing with anything over 100ms latency (honestly even over 50ms is too much in my opinion). If you are, you need to seriously evaluate and reconsider your network setup and equipment or have someone who knows what they’re doing do it for you. All you’re doing is putting unnecessary strain on the servers with your crappy latency. And if you’re playing over wifi, you shouldn’t even bother playing at all. For those in regions that have no servers, sorry you were sold a game that doesn’t support you. I still don’t want you playing in my region. ---

Yeah it’s kinda frustrating getting killed alot … even hiding in bushes at the back of the map …one shot kill … no kill cam … or by a pistol shot from the moon…my bullits seem to be made from peas .. at least my mortar works ..sometimes doesn’t deploy, sometimes it works … I spam the spot button …I can’t see who’s who so I save more peas (bullits) but those few seconds trying to distinguish which side it is , I’m useally dead.. ---

The tone and delivery of your post doesn’t exactly scream maturity or constructive. So, because I don’t agree with your position that the game is “broken on purpose” that somehow makes me pathetic? That statement doesn’t even make logical sense to me. Does the game have bugs? Sure. However, for a game this complex requiring the amount of coding that it does, I would expect that. There is absolutely nothing game-breaking about the current state of the game. I’m actually extremely pleased with where the game is to date and I continue to thoroughly enjoy playing it. My only complaint is the same as it’s always been. The fact that higher ping players have an advantage over low ping players. I consistently lose gun fights to players with 100+ ping while mine stays right at 25ms. If I hop on a euro server where I’m now the one with 100+ ping I almost become untouchable. I win gun fights that even I know I should have lost. ---
