Netcode is just so enfurating
Doesn't matter if I get first in a round the netcode makes it a horrible experience nonetheless, constant one shot, no chance to return fire ever the netcode makes everyone seem to be a e-sports pro ...

The net code has always been suspect as Dice created a game that requires connecting 128 high and low ping non-regional players across 3 different hardware platforms via a MM (Match Making) system that has an outdated 45Hz server side tick rate.
Yet Dice seems to have broken the net code way worse with Season 1 patch changes...and I'd guess the net code changes became necessary due to the lower player counts available to fill the MM system.
Basically players complained about "Waiting for X Players", hoping to get a server browser in AOW. Instead Dice found it easier to twist the net code into oblivion, which only exponentially increased the player count death spiral...🤔
Welcome to 45Hz Land where everyone has a crappy online experience. Select 1 for Insta-death, 2 to get killed around a corner, 3 for one shot, 4 for an invincible player, 5 for an invisible player, 6 to view every other frame, 7 to play with players with bad pings, 8 to wait for players again, 9 to join the same map, and 0 for quit.
Same here this past week on X Series.
'Missing' so many mid range shots with the NTW 50 that I literally have to stop playing due to the frustration.
Another thing I'm noticing is how jerky the enemies are when trying to line them up using the 4 zoom default scope.
Not sure if its the animation but so often they almost appear to be teleporting one foot away from where they are just as I am about to shoot. So I move the sight to the new position and they jump back the other way!
Incredibly frustrating.
And of course as soon as an enemy sees me I'm pretty much insta dead in shorter ranges.

I usually never quit any game, but I hit "0 for quit" so many times in AOW 128 mode after Season 1 launch and the net code disaster changes, it became it's own mini-game...
I'll be back if they reverse the net code carnage...I keep checking for updates, yet the EA/Dice silence on the matter is deafening...Today is especially bad, I get hit by 1 bullet I even just see 1 bullet coming from the enemy and the damage list shows I got hit 5 times basically instantly..... Something needs to happen honestly because this is the worst I ever seen in a Battlefield game.
