This is the new community man, players like him who only can say things like horrid, blame EA, check your connection blabla. its people like him who dont know what netcode, lag, latency, packetloss ping et etc etc is so they think everything is fine. He probably already pre ordered BFH šŸ˜‰ ---

He has friends that are in Japan and I am sure he wants them to be able to connect to US servers. Wonderful. I have no issue but 1. Paid for servers should be able to decided that and 2. LAG comp should not allow one player 6500 miles away to become invincible. ---

And still DICE remains silentā€¦Do they feel that if they ignore us long enough well all go away? If they just keep ignoring the issue then all the lag and ping complaints will just dissapear ---

I agree,consoles need a ping lock.the problem is that we have been shouting for it since battlefield 3 and still not had a decent response from dice so I wouldnā€™t hold your breath. Like others have suggested It could be that thereā€™s a Sony/Microsoft policy in place that may limit what exactly dice can and canā€™t do when players are connecting to their servers through the psn,and due to contractual reasons and red tape dice are unable to say this so simply donā€™t respond on the subject. ---

Am the Pope or Madre Teresa of Calcuta? Nope I am a consumer that want a product that it was sold as they advertiseā€¦in any of the gameplay they made it IN e3 OR SOME OTHER sHOWCASE was this hell on serverā€¦ SO THEY DEAL WITH IT FIND A WAY TO REMOVE LAGGERS COMPENSATION WHATEVER WE ARE ASKING FOR THE MOST OBVIOUS SOLUTION IF NOT THIS ONE THEY FIND ANOTHER BUT FFS FIND ONE BEFORE ALL THERE IS IS THE LAGTURDS ---

Ok letā€™s be clear: Ping lock canā€™t be release and iā€™m 95% sure about that. So beside asking for the impossible, letā€™s ask for the ONE they can easily give us: Show the ping of every players on the scoreboard! That way every Admin can clear his own server ! End of Story ---

Or they could just simply adjust the latency based lag compensation to the point were it brings balance (as intended) and not advantage/disadvantage. The latest patch touched on that with the reduction of the history frame rate by 1/2 second. It was not enough or, not directly related to high ping abuse. Ping limits are best but if not feasible, simply adjust the compensation to deal with ping abuse. Players will, by their own accord, stop region jumping once they realize they actually no longer have a great advantage. I suppose this suggestion makes to much sense. I will speak with my wallet. All the unbalance and unfairness this game brings and yet the forum is filled with knuckleheads (respectfully lol) waiting to purchase the next DLC. You think the lag is bad now - wait until you go CQC! lol ---
