Battlefield 2042 lags while playing 128 players match

Hello,

I have been playing BF 2042 since beta and sometimes updates while improving general performence they sometimes bring new issues to my desktop. I have had very strange lag spike in early days of this game which now is mostly gone however ever since new season dropped i am experiencing a lag which makes it very uncomfortable to play - players are teleporting, rubberbanding most of the time. This issue occurs only in 128 players games, 64 players and other modes work like a charm. I have been playing with network graph but i will be honest, i don't know how to fully read it and what should i pay attention to other than standard latency which doesn't change. I would appreciate any help and advice.

I'm playing on pc with specs:

AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X 12-Core Processor (24 CPUs), ~3.5GHz

Gigabybte Geforece 2080TI

32GB RAM

I am also using direct cable connection to my router and it's fiber high speed internet connection which has never caused any issues like this before.

I'm also posting an example of how does it look in game, as you can see my teammate just teleports next to me but my movement is never interupted:

Thank you again for any help and best regards

  • Looks like the cpu is maxing out. Client Frame Time (CFT) is showing 20ms which is (1,000ms ÷ 20ms = 50fps). So the game is running at 50fps.

    Time Nudge (TN) is spiking up to 600ms when it usually runs around 20ms or less. Time Nudge interpolates player movement so that would explain why players are teleporting.

    128 player servers is stressing the CPU beyond it's limits. Try lowering CPU heavy settings like 'high fidelity objects amount' and 'lighting quality'.

    Sorry for disturbing. But I don't think it's the case. I have i7 with rtx4060, 16gb ram. And tried to low graphics to minimum, but it didn't help. And my friend that has lower specs says that he haven't those problems. Do you know other possible solutions?
