    @NightHawkk1997 a dxdiag will always help but recommend using a normal YouTube video instead of YouTube short so we can see the data.

    @EA_Atic We have done this on other forums though and I can’t do more than a short because it’s a short video. It’s when the TN fluctuates and when it’s also over 21. Other people have posted in forums on this and we have tagged you in them. It’s the same situation everyone is having

    Also this does not occur for the entire game. It’s happening for about 30-40 percent of the game regardless of what’s going on. @EA_Atic

    @DrDeath26B It’s not just you but it’s so frustrating! I am using RTX4090 and I get these lags! So there is no way it’s my hardware! We need dice/EA to look into it but they tend to just not reply! It’s been months we have about 5 others threads haha!

    @DrDeath26B I still highly doubt they will fix the rubber banding if they resolve this though! Unless this is related to the same issue that’s got worse over time?…

    Yes... i had this freezing issue initially when i tried the game after updating to the latest patch.

    Don't think this is related to the micro stutter / hitching / frame time spikes / TN issues that we are getting though.

    Similar issue, game plays in slow motion. I've caught a screenshoot of the ingame network graph, it shows that TIME NUDGE is over 1000ms, this is while i had the slow motion bug.

    I can actually vouch for this as well. For the last week, every day when I try to play 2042 I have massive packet loss issues and rubberbanding. I simply switch over to BF4 or any other title in the franchise and have zero issues. I'm on Gigabit fiber and have <2ms ping to the nearest datacenter, and even on a VPN only see like 20ms max usually. It's not an internet issue on my end if it only occurs on this one game. 

    I've run tracert and ping in CMD and have zero packet loss to any website I could dream up. It's literally JUST BF2042.

    Same thing here. Game is unplayable. 12 months later and they still can't fix basic things. 

    STOP RELEASING ANY CONTENT AND FIX THE STUTTER FFS.

    I wish I really listened to people and refunded the game.

    @EA_Atic Have you looked into this case we are all commenting on please and had any update from the DEV team. we have been waiting a very long time and can see active responses to other posts other than ours...

    @MassiveFnChungus The strange issue with ours is there is no packet loss and no internet issues. it's only when TN count fluctuates or goes above 21 to like 23-24 it rubber bands. these are not exactly high numbers either but its defo related to the stability I think.

    @NightHawkk1997 Just jumped into a Conquest game to test..Had freeze while loading on first attempt ( current issue since latest patch) and then when in game, getting the usual stutter / hitching coming and going.. Noticed that some of it occured while TN was in the 20's ( as we have already noted) but was also occurring while the TN was quite low.
    This game is just borked!
    p.s .. isnt COD MW2 just lovely?.. im loving it

    @raverill yes I have been playing the campaign - not a single freeze so far!

    and yes I have noticed the stutter when the TN is low however its usually when its low but fluctuating between numbers like 5-10ms I get it.

    its very irritating as I just want it sorting but no one is even responding!
