This LAG is UNPLAYABLE
Seriously 2 nights in a row now. Teleporting backwards and forwards. Time travel. Stuck on spot. And when that ain't happening you're getting downed before you been shot or any vast array of weird c...

Community ManagerHi there, @1ronKeys.
I'm really sorry for all the frustration. I'd like to try to help find out why you're lagging. What system are you playing on and are you on a wired or wireless connection? Thanks!
@1ronKeys I feel like we've been here before bud....several times. 😛
You sure its not an issue at your end? I was on last night with absolutely no rubber banding issues.
- @MandatoryIDtag I haven't had rubberbanding in a very long time. That too on 90 ping.
What about Sony throttling y'all speed? I am on PC, so thank god.@BaldWraithSimp It's been noticeable for me but not game breaking.
- @MandatoryIDtag People play on other servers as well, you know. Your experience is not everyone's experience. EA has trash servers
- @EA_Aljo Hi there thanks for your reply.
Respectfully I'm used to some of the default EA replies, which often look to merely blame the user or such or anyone else.
My internet has been having zero problems with anything else. My router has been restarted when facing these issues etc etc.
I'm on PS4 my ports are forwarded etc.
The game tells me at the moment usually highest of 20-58ping closests server has been saying 2% PL frequently for past week.
I had to move to server much further that was 60ping highest and 0% loss, but lag was still noticeable and I'd assume it's more desirable to play on closer data centres.- EA_Aljo
We aren't just blaming the player for no reason. We have to rule out those issues first when there are no known connection problems on our end. If you'd like to go through those steps, let me know. One quick question I have for you is, do you play on a wired or wireless connection?
- @EA_Aljo Any known issues when the connection isn't the issue? ie sub optimal servers by different providers and something that can't be fixed our end other than changing to different region with higher ping or playing lottery?
I have similar issues every few nights. Game is virtually unplayable. Here's what I've trouble shooted.
Xbox
Local server runs in SLC
Latency: 32ms
Packet loss: 2-4
NAT TYPE Checked and found open
Speed test ran and 100-180mbps
Playing on hardline cat5 ethernet
On one occasion I did discover that my ISP may have been throttling my speed but even testing results since that was resolved verifies infrequent severe prediction errors. Seems like its gotta be on server side.
Yes sometimes is closer to high traffic times like on patch days or LTE updates and weekends. But it still also happens frequently when none of those things are a factor.
@TheTrafficKing Hey man.
So just to confirm your Prediction error issues are sporadic right?
When it occurs have you tried the basic trouble shooting steps, such as a cold reset of your xbox, resetting your router etc?
If not its likely just an external issue, packets are inevitably lost on route to your router, all we can do is minimise the issue at our end, with ethernet cables etc. x.x
- @MandatoryIDtag Think I played enough for this split or even this season. Now my game is laggy AF since yesterday. It's a PowerPoint presentation now. Changed my DNS, did some resetting but to no avail.
It could be the server or my WiFi. The point is no one exactly knows the real culprit here. Might as well return after a week and see how it goes.
@ Moderators
Responds to posts and asks for clarification. Never follows up.
This is why I mentioned pingplotter. If the community starts running this then we will all have logs of it not being on our end. Not really sure that it will make the devs acknowledge their trash servers and attempt to fix, but at least gives more than anecdotal evidence that it is not our end.
Good call

I think you can look at my profile and see that I'm pretty good at following up. Not so much on the weekends when I'm not working though. I respond when I return as I am now. As far as your issue goes, can you run a UO Trace and screenshot me the results? Instructions are here.

@EA_AljoThe link takes me to an unreachable website.
Hi dear. At least don't lie. Because you (means ea or respawn) don't care. The game is really unplayable from turkey, for example. Because nearest server on frankfurt and it says "server is full" sometimes. In the conclusion please don't lie you have no skill to care about gameplay.
