Hit reg issues, TTK vs TTD inconsistency.
Just left another game for the same reason as i left the last 3 games. you can shoot a whole clip on an enemy, well aimed, only getting 2 or 3 hitmarkers, the enemy turns around, 1 or 2 bullets and i...

@EA_AticYo, how do you check other players pings? Or even keep an eye on your own without console commands?
You can see your own in the mess that is the left-hand side of the scoreboard. You can't see other player's pings in BF2042. Yet another missing feature.
@DigitalHype Thanks, completely forgot it's stashed over there. I've got like 10 ping which is neat, but I'm curious how the mod knows other folks ping when...we can't see it in-game?
Clumsy lets you choose a higher ping. Which can be helpful if you have a really low ping and are getting insta-blasted by high ping players due to lag compensation.

Hi @edgecrusherO0, I host FNB games on Fridays so I know I have people all over the world joining in especially from America and middle east joins in and have hosted separated games with just EU folks joining in.
/Atic- @EA_Atic Ah, didn't know hosting Portal games let you see ping, never hosted one. You learn something new every day.
- EA_AticHi @edgecrusherO0, its more that I know the people joining are from EU more then I directly see their pings.
/Atic I find my self regularly talking to American squad members in chat…. While I am on 20ms eu servers lol there’s your problem!
Dice are literally making it playable for triple digit pings whilst my 20ms ping runs like a complete dog!
Back to insurgency and battlebit
- @emerson1975 Imagine living in few hours from Frankfurt.
But tbh lately it feels not that bad. Not sure why. Will keep an eye on it. Played a game = everything normal
Next round = My figure feels like a wooden figure again. It stutters/jitters and my gun doesn't fire consistently. she stutters too.
- @TeiIzeitREKTor I had the same issue yesterday. First few games was great the second two was horrible. The stuttering was awful.
Tonight, has been my worst experience with this so far, couldn't shoot anybody. I think every kill I got was a grenade kill ☹️
- @Ironhead841 Was it stuttering?
Yes stuttering, and lousy hit detection.
- @Ironhead841 Exactly what I experienced!

Thats me in every other game
- @Sc0tch_Whiskey @Ironhead841 Same here...altho the stuttering wasn't that bad
- @emerson1975 yep I have seen players from South America, North America, and Europe on the same server. WTH? There is no way that is going to work for the local player.
Have you ever called Europe from the USA or vice versa? Even calls from Germany to Turkey (only 3000 km) are heavily delayed.
Of course, this delay also occurs in online games.
That can only go wrong. Someone MUST lose (low ping) and win (high ping).
I miss the days when servers still had a reasonable ping limit (~60ms) and low ping was a real advantage.
Today: A player from Germany is playing a game on a German server. But he needs to EXTEND his connection to Asia in order to have a good gaming experience.
The developers of DICE are cordially invited to play their game on my computer. I live right next to Düsseldorf Airport in Germany (~1 km).
Do you sometimes feel like you're nailed when someone shoots at you? Then I can no longer run.

This is not off topic! This is all related to the netcode problem. It was perfectly fine for 6 months until it was broken.
PS: Unfortunately you don't see it like in the game. Maybe because I'm playing at 144FPS but the recording only shows 60 FPS.
@EA_Atic Here is it back again. Sorry one recorded as gif. I thought it will record in better quality. But you still can see:
1. It took me 2/3 a mag to kill one and at least few seconds.
2. I died much much faster.
3. I would say I didn't miss much (from !10 bullets fired) but then 0 damage from my side.
Second one is just a vid how I spend whole mag on close target (despite I spent only half on much further target from gif).
So both TTD and hitreg suffering badly. After that I had few normal rounds withot even closing the game nor leaving the queue.
You asked for vids - you have it now.
Looks more like a BSV-M Accuracy issue then a hit reg issue. When you have 18 or 19 shots left in the mag you can see the bullets landing to the right of the guy you are shooting at.
I think you got Aimpunched, I have noticed on the BSV-M when i get aim punched the bullets goes anywhere but the crosshair and its hard to see because the gun doesn't have any tracers.
This hit reg is absolute trash. There is no fighting, it is just instant death. For some reason, I am literally killed by a console player 99% of the time in a split second. Probably 75% of the time a headshot, which is amazing accuracy.
If I get a kill, it is at least half a mag if not more. I am still having to reload after every kill because it takes so many bullets to kill someone. At this point, my TTK to TTD kill ratio is probably 4 to 1. It is that bad for me. The game is basically unplayable.
It has gotten considerably worse since the last patch. I guess I am down to just completing the weeklies until they fix this crap. STOP putting high-ping players in a server I am playing on. MM is broken.I'm done with the game.
You have to mention that you play on the EU servers. Why? I suspect that these run even worse (netcode) than the NA servers. In America there are 2 servers. In EU only 1.
I've noticed most people posting videos in this thread have really low ping times. @LlamaWithKatana has a 18 ping in the video above.
From my testing, having a low ping in Battlefield is a disadvantage because it reduces your reaction time.
A ping slightly higher than 100ms seems to be the sweet spot for lag compensation in Battlefield. 110ms is about perfect.
110ms ping causes the server to teleport you 92ms into the future due to lag compensation. (110ms - 18ms = 92ms time travel into the future)
Obviously a 92ms advantage in reaction time is massive. It should be noted this high ping advantage only applies while moving. For example, a 110ms high ping player coming around a corner will see a 18ms low ping player first and start shooting before the low ping player even sees them.

Good post, that helps to explain a lot.
- @Pantleon please specify which exactly video do you refer. I'm a little confused. Also with no tracers I have no idea which shenannigans DICE pulling. But mind that in all cases all attachment are exactly the same.
@TeiIzeitREKTor yep. Few hours from Frankfurt actually.
@OskooI_007 usually 18 is high-ish for me. I can have 10-12 really. Guess it is time for VPN now because at this point game just feels inconsistent.
Also, ReLive screwed me and didn't record the moment where I was deleted in a split second. But well, I can't show it so feel free to say it never happened.
