Wouldn't count on it unfortunately. EA doesn't seem to want to deal with it or even admit it's their problem.
Hey, @McChodeGuy Based on the last files you uploaded, your first 2 hops, both show 13% packet loss. These locations would be the path your network is taking to reach our servers.
We would not be able to adjust the packet loss here from our side, which is why we attempt to go through the troubleshooting provided above, to see if we can help remove this loss. If you have gone through troubleshooting with your ISP and are still seeing this, perhaps there is a physical connection issue happening to cause this.
If everything (cables) are secure to your internet equipment and to your wall, I would recommend showing them this specifically to see if they can further investigate this.

I will try to contact them about this. However, what insight can you give to the MASSIVE packet loss on the EA servers? Doesn't seem right and surely affects my experience.
- 5 years ago@EA_Illium Another update. Played in 2 different locations with 2 different ISPs and still experienced identical prediction errors.

@McChodeGuy Thank you for the update check have tried going through the above troubleshooting for the network you used? Also, would you be able to share a UoTrace, or pathping/trace from the new network?

@EA_IlliumImpossible as the places I was playing are a few hundred miles away. But I can say with 100% certainty that these prediction errors felt exactly like the ones I experience at my home.
I really don't want to be rude here but it's amazing to me how little responsibility is being taken on EA's side. I have read 10+ articles and 100s of blogs about people experiencing prediction errors with 0 solutions. It is clearly a big problem amongst your player base and am very surprised about how little action is being taken on EA's side.
