Battlefield 2042 micro stuttering when running. This does not happen all of the time but at least 80%. This does not seem to be a performance or network issue on my end as i am getting 90-120fps with...

@NightHawkk1997 thats quite close indeed. but its adsl , so its probarly cable that ish years old, lot of noise at it, I did work for TELE2 many years ago, just when they get startup with thewir company. In that time it was adsl . adsl2 , adsl2+ , and if ya got a distance from cabinet was 1km or more, and cable was old , real old , then connection was bad. Lot of angry people when i worked at their callcenter hahahha

If fiber is active, you get 500 down , 500 up, stable, no dips, nothing less , nothing more.
In advantge from your new fiber, WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD OF INTERNET , hahahhahaha CHEERS !!!!

@Rokebo73 Ye I am really looking forward to getting it to be honest. But my signal now is not bad! Even the engineers said it was good but maybe it can’t handles 128player?

    @NightHawkk1997 adsl line could get packets lost send/revieve and will be filled/corrected <-- stutter. They boost adsl, but if adsl is already not that ok , you only boost a not that ok connection.
    No real advantage with boosting a "bad" signal !

    @NightHawkk1997 cat7 , why ? z690 got network ports from 2.5gb and 10gb ports , depends on z690 board. for a connection at home (homenetwork) you want to push (send/recieve) the max!!!!!!!

    @EA_Leeuw hey man , got an little update for your troubleshooting script with micro stutters.

    Some people are still connected with an ADSL connection, and thats not that stable and good,fast signal !
    Also distance from cabinet to peoples property could be a issue with ADSL !!
    ADSL is known for signal loses/noise and correction issues with packets that got lost ect ect ect.

    I think ' some' stutter victims can get an answer for their issue !

    Cheers. Hoop dat er mensen mee geholpen worden en een beter gevoel er van krijgen als probleem duidelijker is !

    @Rokebo73I got 1Gb fiber connection with 0 packet loss.
    I'm sorry to tell you but this issue in not on our end it's with the game/servers.
    I bet you have the same problem too and you just dont notice it.
    I see it happening on many youtubers videos as well (levelcap, jackfrags)

    Its harder to notice in videos, but I immediately feel it when it happens to me, it affects everything from moving to shooting to jumping just EVERYTHING feels like glue.

    @Rokebo73 I can confirm it’s not my network. I just attempted to connect this to full GB fibre as a friends 1000/1000 and I still have exactly the same issue. This has to be game related 

    thanks

    Do those connection icons appear for you when said micro stutter happens?

  • NightHawkk1997's avatar

    @Krispy_AssassinxNope this is the issue. We get no connection issue icons whenever this happens. The only thing we have all noticed is when the microstutter happens if you look
    In graph settings the time nudge is fluctuating

    @NightHawkk1997 Interesting. I also have some micro stuttering here and there, but I also get the big ping spikes. I just deleted the cache folder, played 1 full game without very minimal to no stuttering or ping issues.

    @Krispy_Assassinx Mine is usually about half way through the game the stutter begins then it goes then it comes back! Sometimes it’s really bad sometimes it’s not!

    I can almost 100% confirm its the game now as I have reduced all my setting to a mix of medium-high on rtx 3080 and I am getting a stable 120fps at 4k with no dips and I still get the micro stutters. I will probably continue to play at these settings even though it can play on higher settings but this just reduces any dips in game play. but the micro stutter is for sure the game or the servers. I plan to get a 4090 at some point so if it still stutters on that then...

    @NightHawkk1997 Hey Nighthawk…
    It’s definitely the game, I think you’d find that you would still get these stutters even on a behemoth 4090😉

    @raverill I am meant to be getting full fibre next week or so and that will also be a good test to see if it’s the game or not as well I think as it will be a totally new network! Just want them to fix it really now! It could maybe be specific internet providers and the link between the EA servers I don’t know!

    @NightHawkk1997Wise words, this is an idea to investigate who got stutter / lag / rubberbanding and what connection they use/got ! Enter type of connection you use:

    What typ of connection do you got?

    ADSL , What upload and download speed do you got?. What is distance from your connection/property to cabinet, 

    BROADBAND , What upload and download speed do you got?

    FIBER , What upload and download speed do you got?.

    Who is your ISP
    What country are you in ?

    What windows version do you run ?

    What CPU and GPU is installed ?

    What brand memory,  ammount and MHZ installed ?
    Got an VPN running ?
    Any virusscanner / firewall installed ?

    @NightHawkk1997 Hi, fibre is not going to help you.
    I got 1000/100 fibre connection and i'm still getting TN rubber banding.
    It's an issue with the game/servers

    @Max1boy Unfortunately, you're right there. This game is going to need a good patch to sort this issue out. Full fibre connection will help Nighthawk download those patches super speedy though

    @raverill Clearly it’s not internet speed related but maybe it’s specific service provider related I don’t know… clutching at straws here! For example the service providers servers to the EA servers. Not a clue. All I know is that no other online game has any form of stuttering and the fact the ps5 is doing it as well makes me wonder. But then I have been on some of my friends consoles and pc’s and ye have almost no stutter. It’s specific to something though within our networks/computers that’s the game is not coping with…

    @NightHawkk1997yes thats is possible indeed, maybe some ISP got a terrible hop some where !  Question? got memory in dual channel mode set ?

    @Rokebo73 Yep using 32GB ddr5 ram Kingston fury beast in slots 2 and 4 so it’s using dual channel. This should do this automatically correct? I do not have to manually confirm it to do this I don’t think. Once in correct slots it will work
