Agreed @cornybbq2 ,
This is a massive problem for most of the players still and needs urgent fix for the game to be worthwhile coming back to and play it more...
One of the reasons for the bullet sponging we are many to observe may be to the fact that EA actually have not set up sufficient servers in proximity of the players geographic locations. Ake for what we have heard feedback on so far: No servers for South America, no servers for South Africa, no servers for the Middle East, no servers for ANZ, no servers to cover the Asia Pacific region Singapore, India... (think though we have servers in Japan?).
But as EA/DICE have very conveniently removed the function for us to have any server browser in the game, we dont know with absolute certainty our own latency to the server we may be thrown onto and we have zero visibility either to the latency on the players also on the same server...
We do however have some insights into the current state, as aka in the Portal we can see the latency to the various Portal servers that we have ability to join for our gaming experience. And here I have aka many servers in the 120-180ms range, and some even much much higher than that, namely above 180-200ms (I am based in CET region). With such poor connectivity quality, then bullet sponging is a consequence.
@CyberDymeI’m in belgium, normally i get around 20-30ms ping in previous battlefield games. So server distance shouldn’t be a problem.
Just now i uploaded some gameplay of myself on youtube. A whole clip on an enemy and i got 1 hitmarker… its been like this the whole day. Its broken.
Check it out if you like

4 Rounds on 64 Conquest.
First round went perfect.
Second round nothing in my scope or hipshot seem to hit.
Third round was awful
Fourth round I hit my wall and played something else.
Man I don't get how its so perfect sometimes then the next round you can empty a clip into a sniper and it shows hit markers but only did 20 damage

Yeah I feel your pain, sadly I had to quit a few times yesterday for the same reasons, there is no fun when it gets that bad. ☹️

The sad part about it is that you know that the next day will bring the same mess again with non good prospects for the near future.- GrizzGolf3 years agoSeasoned Ace

@cornybbq2what you are experiencing is just battlefield to me. I was before in France now in Belgium and so far hit registration is a huge issue in Battlefield games in thos countries. My friend from UK do not have these issues.
Im currently playing BF3 i got to drop 30 bullet on a guy cheast/head with aek to kill him. Clear shots with shotgun denied on people with ping over 60.
My ping ping also is arround 30. But hear me out on BF5 there are some servers where my ping is arround 160 and there i play in god mode somehow.
My advice use a VPN and connnect to favorite servers from far location this will make your TTD less consistant than arround 30. No chnages on TTK.
