I always wanted to hear it from someone at DICE before I would believe it as gospel truth, rather than the opinion of salty feckers that use this forum.

But please note these changes are related to the CTE on PC and might never make it on to console let alone 360/PS3

i played in a west coast server earlier and had a ping of about 160 but i didn’t notice any advantage of being able to kill quicker and still was able to be shot around corners

Depends on EA too I would think. They want the money, which means they will most likely not have a lock on the game, but rather try to find ways to appease both sides.

so every BR player should be banned for exploiting the game by playing OOR. from now on, report every OOR scrub you find on a local server.

you can always rent your own server and ban OORs. just make sure not to put “Europe Only, US only, Asia Only” etc. we tried that and the server was shut down due to “Racism”.

its only a split second difference the OOR gets but that split second means a kill or a death most of the time. ill turn a corner and pull the trigger of my F2000/AEK/L85 while the other guy turning the corner guns me down with a P226 no headshot. i check the gamer card and bam… brasil, UK, Japan. thats where these scrubs playing out of their region gain the advantage.

i also love joining Ranked servers so i dont have to play against the quickmatch OORs just to find half a server full of OORs that choose U.S. servers because they know they get the advantage… all scrubs.

@calebdarkblade. EA market and sell their game in regions that they don’t provide servers for, so how are responsible for their customers ‘exploiting’ game mechanics. The root of the problem lies with EA,DICE.

Actually I find it is the exact opposite for me. I tend to lag 1-2 seconds behind.

lol you forgot to add an apology for all the times you insulted us when trying to get you to see the light! Oh well, welcome to reality, Johnny 🙂 Anyway, who is tiggr?

ps. Rabid67. Our server said: BATTLEFIELD NORTH AMERICA: USA ONLY … never had issue. I see servers all the time trying this and they don’t get banned. The real issue is that it doesnt work. Players love to jump in and spoil. BAN THEM ALL!! 🙂 We let the server go because you could not kick/ban in game if the player had a tag. They say that has been fixed now.

Since I can’t think of any response to this that isn’t likely to get me banned, I’ll just take my chances, it’ll be worth it.

In the opinion of this salty fecker you can go fuck yourself.

But they never really denied it…  
And what I want is not a confirmation of what they said…because it wont change anything

WE NEED PING DISPLAY IN CONSOLES AND PING CAP\LIMIT FOR PRIVATE SERVERS

this is what will make the game run smoother, nothing else bet my PS4 on this

Wow so in the end you are just a smug jerk? 10-4. We don’t need a comment from them to know what we have known. We have eyes!

Don’t even bother. He is too blinded by his own hate to behave in a constructive manor.

To be honest I hope that they lock the game. This will make all the whiners be quiet, and when they still get reked they will only have themselves to blame finally. I miss the days of Vex, since he would have shut the guy down.

U misread me sry about that  
I am not mad, and yes this is proof…  
But what I said was they had admited it before which brings us to the core of the matter once again

What will they do about it?

We all saw the results of the tickrate upgrade, yes it works _ **when we are not playing against laggers which is rare** _

at this point they can not turn their heads away to see if it goes away, there are too many threads about ping limit or region lock

One thing is for sure, this will be my last battlefield game if they wont release this feature

64 players in destructive maps with 30 laggers is too much for someone maintain some level of education and patience…

I will ditch this game as soon Destiny arrives, If they dont implement the right tools for admins…  
It is a joke for a game that is 120 (full game features) being at this state 8 1/2 months on the road…only now they are making the BEta TEst  
ppl can call it what ever they want, but old school will call it by its real name which is BETA TEST  
Still it is better now than nothing but IMO consoles will never have a good gameplay while laggers cramp up servers

I have had all the proof I’ve needed all along, since BF3.  
What turned me into a “whining baby” was people like you being ignorant trolls about it.  
But that was always your intent, wasn’t it?

Troll.

You truly are a gem aren’t you?. The squeaky wheel gets the oil and if not for honest players voicing concern…
