Battlefield 2042 bad stutter rubber-banding issue

I am Battlefield 2042 Gold Edition Buyer

the vehicle I'm driving in the game seems to stutter back at intervals while it's going forward

While the tank is moving forward, it is pulled back at intervals. like the tank slides on the screen.

You should watch the gameplay video to understand my problem. gameplay video that cannot be understood with words must be seen.

error gameplay video: [cm - removed link]

I've been playing the game for 1 week, the problem started for 1 day (nvidia driver and BF 2042 game update was done 1 day ago)

EA please help me.

 
  • @taybek93 Are you getting any warning icons on the left hand side of your screen. I had exactly the same problem. I was getting an orange icon which related to latency variation.
    Latency variation :
    In-game latency variation warning symbol.
    This measures the jitter on your connection to our servers, and it’s a real flag for an unstable connection.
    You’ll see an orange warning here if there is an 8-19ms difference in your latency over time, and a red one once that difference hits 20ms or above. High jitter means a frustratingly inconsistent game experience, you may see rubberbanding, input lag spikes, and related problems that feel all the more frustrating for their apparent randomness.

    What fixed it for me was changing my connection speed. I was connecting via 5G and changed it to 2.4G and it is smooth as butter now.
    If you can have a look for the icons when the stutter issue happens it will guide you on how to fix it, In my case it was my connection.
    Hope this helps.

  • From the start the game is UNPLAYABLE by this rubber banding. FPS i good PING is good. Only in ALL-OUT WARFARE is this problem.

  • The game is completely unplayable for me since patch 2 as well. I enabled the console command to check fps and it's not reporting the same thing other fps overlays are reporting and frame times are all over the play with cpu fps dropping to 5. My overall average FPS dropped considerably. Game was completely smooth for me prior to the patch, now It feels so bad I can't stand it for more than 5 minutes.
