This… ^^^^^^ I average around 10 latency but get random lag spikes like clockwork where is will hit 200+ for a few seconds. I wont be able to move at all. It’s gotten me killed a lot. Never happened before the spring update.

@ShelteredWalrus: What does the server browser show you? Are there any low ping servers around you? I would try to ping the server IP (if you have a PC) or check with your ISP why that is. You cannot blame EA for a poor ISP routing within the US. Thats rather abnormal.

There are good videos from Mr. Battlenonsense out there explaining the basics of ISPs and routing.

@mischkag , please answer my prior question regarding server availability.

This morning as an example, I have filter set to numerous slots (but not empty or full), overy half the maps, and all regions. All I get are US East and Japan…but I’m in California. It’s a poor experience in other regions.

It’s normal to find 30 US East servers come up for every US West, and I can only assume there’s a limited number?!?!

I live in Texas & use west coast servers and was getting bad lags/rubberbanding for 3 hrs until I got pissed off enough to quit playing. I was getting killed more than normal so I switched servers at least 4 times and no difference.  
Hit reg was non existent and I couldn’t even jump over a small wall- it kept rubberbanding me back.  
If they don’t fix this crap soon, I’ll play another game until they do fix the problem.

Having this issue again. I’m using Speedtest during the game, everything comes back normal, but ingame I have a constant 90 ping with 470+ spikes. I normally get around 20.

I know a lot about networking and I’ve made VERY sure that I shouldn’t have any issues in that regard.

Yep, definitely DICE’s fault but every time they try to fix it they just make it worse. Played this morning with every game in the 100+ range and I’m typically a 20.

Indeed it is. A bit too harsh.

Like other are saying everything was fine before the last update. Please read above comments from others and look at the other servers posts issues for they all seem similar after update. Seems like it could be something with location in middle USA with servers to east and west. Are there any servers in the Mid US?

Im in Milwaukee, smack in the middle of America, & I always get between 19-34 no matter which coast Im on. I’ve never seen East/West coast in the browser fiter though. BF4 had them, I figured BF1 would too.

Back to the drawing board with server stuff. Enough said. It’s broken now time to fix this mess.

Agreed…and no answer to my question. Would be nice to find a US West sever without spamming the refresh button for five minutes.

@Halcyon_Creed_N7: Plz provide footage with the Netgraph enabled.  
@diagoro: Well did u reset your server browser filter? You should see all servers depending on your settings and sorted by ping.  
@metaldad62: This rubberbanding indicates massive issues on your end for both: upstream and downstream. I am a netcode engineer, i cannot tell you why your ISP routing and connection results in packet loss and most likely high ping. The support should be able to tell you the IP of given servers and you can run some routing analysis.

@mischkag , this has been a problem for months, with several browser resets. Either US West servers are mostly full/empty, or there are seriously fewer US West servers.

Can anyone answer this? I’ve been having problems with latency exceeding 600+ more times recently than I would like. I’ve checked my connections and hardware. And everything is in perfect working order! What the hell is happening to my game and what can I do about it?!

Yesterday, my friends played with me in operation and my ping I saw was not the same as my friends saw and vice versa, before last week, the ping I saw from the other players, my friends saw the same Number than me? I do not know if this can cause lag problems in game?

Example: My ping i saw = 20 And my ping that my friends told me they saw = 45  
Ping of my friends # 1 that I saw = 40 And his ping he saw = 20 etc…

Before last week: My ping i saw = 35 The ping that my friends told me they saw = 35 (SAME) etc… :\*
