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...
Forum Discussion
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
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.
@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.
Clumsy works too. Just set it to all sending packets.
Bf2042 also has a tick rate of 45hz, which is equivalent to an update every 22ms. So if you are below a 22ms ping, it is even worse for for you.
- @Adamonic ain't it 60Hz for a long time?
- @LlamaWithKatana yep but only for PC, consoles were 30, but now with so much crossplay, they got lazy and went 45 effectively neutering PCs with low pings.
- @Adamonic oh wow.
Ok google how to clog bandwidth. @LlamaWithKatana
You can try messing around with your Network Throttling Index.
Regedit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile
Change NetworkThrottlingIndex value to a higher value equivalent to the ping you are trying to replicate. It may not impact your actual ping, but it should throttle packets and in and out like you have that ping. I think it defaults to 10. I just tried 20, going to bump mine up to 40, then 60, etc until I find a sweet spot.My ping is constantly 20 or less, but with the tick rate, I don't think I am impacting anything below 22.2.
Friends, the thing is that EA/DICE is just ignoring us here.
If you have the net stats activated (a good idea), with the bar at the top you can see your ping and time nudge (TN). If your time nudge is over 20ms, just quit. Anything at 20 or over is a terrible gaming experience.
I just had a few rounds where the TN was higher than my ping, wtf.Oh. Time Nudge! Thanks. I commented in your other thread, asking what TN was. So it's latency compensation when there is differential delay on server updates between clients. This is exactly why we used to have server ping limits back when DICE gave us real server control.

I would prefer more split tunneling style to not hinder the rest. But thanks for advise.
TN = 8
Ping = 14
Unplayable (like 1-Shot)
I'm fed up with this s**t.
- @TeiIzeitREKTor Damn, so it has to be the low ping. Anything under 22.2ms and you are hosed. The tick rate is 45hz (22.2ms) so any ping under puts you at a disadvantage regardless of the TN.
- @Adamonic I’ve never had a ping lower than 27 to west coast servers, 79 to central US (Chicago), and Sunday night (Jul 10) I had the absolute worst experience over 3 games that I’ve had to date. I’ve experienced bad latency before, but this was a whole new world of BS, I quit out and restarted, cleared cache, still had the same awful lag. Both visual and hit reg related. It felt like I was almost a second behind the action. PC player, fibre connection, 100 mbs on speed test at same time (I checked). If it’s not me, then it’s them and for the first time I thought about walking away. I shut it down with out any more multiplayer. Will try again, but how many more times can I hope for that one good session mixed in with so many garbage ones.
