    It's still the biggest problem in the game and we are being completely ignored, what are we doing wrong?

    This is the biggest problem of BF2042!!

    When I get this stuttering, which is bad enough on its own, hit reg and movement is out the window as well and the game is totally unplayable

    And it is happening a lot. It seem if I play for multiple hours this issue is mitigated as I don’t experience the stutter and lag so often after a couple of hours, or maybe I just become numb to the fact

    It more or less seems Im for no reason(?), as ping shows approx. 30ms, is way out of sync with server

    Getting shoot behind a corner, a half to a second, after Im behind cover, shooting at enemies but hit boxes are way ahead of the character I see, if I drive a vehicle close to other vehicles, the screen/view bounces rapidly back and forth from my «version» or location of my character in the game and what the server or other clients have as location

    Movement of the character feels like ice skating as the position is slowly sliding towards the server location of your character

    So the in game ping have to be totally wrong and the actual latency is more like 500-1000ms

    so....

    Any news EA on whether this issue is being investigated?

    or even acknowleged?

    The radio silence on this speaks volumes to me..I dont personally think Dice will patch this issue in this iteration of the Frostbite engine now..

    Maybe the next version of the Frostbite engine for the next BF title will have the issue sorted?

    Ive uninstalled 2042, i nip back to check the forums to see if there is any news re this issue, but i cant play it in its current state.

    If a miracle happens and they sort this issue then i would reinstall and play.

    If the next BF game is plagued by anything like all the issues with this version, then i wont be buying in. Once bitten....

    @raverill 

    I also stopped playing this game until this issue will be resolved (doubtful it will ever happen).

    I moved to MW2 and while it's not battlefield it is a game that works on launch (crazy right? battlefield can't get there a year after launch).

    @EA_Atic keeps covering his eyes and ears and pretends we don't exist.

    I think this particular mod already stood out to help out many of us. Do you think he personally will fix it? He can report it and just wait till he gets any update. Do you ever imagine how frustrating his job is as noone ever posts anything postitive here?

    To be honest not everything can be fixed for everyone. It is not only the game as many don't seem to have these findings, it can also be your hardware/software configuration or even your software, network routing issues,,. you can't compare games as they are all demanding on your setup in their own way. BF2042 depends a lot on your memory configuration and storage setup (hardware and BIOS/Software wise)

    What is important is that programmers can reproduce your findings and figure out why... I even tested an old 1700X and a GTX 1070 GPU, no constant stuttering noticeable on 64 player maps, 128 it was as the CPU had a hard time looking at the perfoverlay/drawfps numbers.

    The game runs here like a breeze, even now on 128 player maps, Same on my friend's setups, We initially all complained that we got like a  20-25FPS drop on the revamped renewal map, however it did not influence gameplay at all.

    @ATCleeghoofd you clearly don't even understand the issue we are talking about and you still decided to respond with your irrelevant information...

    This issue happens to everyone including console players.

    Tell me, how hard is it for a moderator to say something like "the team is aware of the issue and are investigating" or any kind of other confirmation that our reports don't fall on deaf hears?

    @ATCleeghoofd The micro stutter issues exists for all...its present on all the gameplay videos released by EA and Youtubers.Some players are more sensitive to it than others , but the issue is there!
    I'll be the first to acknowledge if a game is good etc and do so on forums where this is so.However, this forum exists to log issues, so if they exist then obviously the forum will contain a lot of ' complaints' especially from people who are passionate about the franchise and have spent hard earned cash for a product that isn't working correctly.
    Dice EA really dropped the ball with this title.
    I really hope they can learn and pull something special out with the next BF title.
    We'll see

    @NightHawkk1997 Every update i have hope they have fixed it. Same with season 3. It's so bad right now, when i see TN jump, i can sometimes lift my hand from my keyboard and watch my character execute the commands i gave seconds ago. It never has been this bad before...

    Same here...never had this issue until Season 3 update. Time nudge goes up too 400ms and is literally unplayable. Its definitely not on our end if its happening to multiple people since the update. Classic BF2042.

    In addition to this ongoing issue, after this update,whats with the LOD pop in now on ground foliage as you run forward on the Spearhead map?

    Probably an attempt by Dice to help FPS ?   poor.. poor ...poor.

    This game continues to be a mess..

    Back to MW2,that runs like a dream, will try 2042 again after next patch to see if improved... ☹️ Continued disappointment!

    Same issue, I have over 300 hours of gameplay and since late Monday, I get stuttering and massive frame drops resulting in freezing. I have an I7-9700k and an RTX 2080. I play with DLSS and go from 110-120 FPS to less then 40 FPS resulting is a freeze. Is there a fix or workaround for this? 

  • I have been dealing with Rubber Banding since June/July and I can't find the cause of the problem, the game worked fine before June, I can't find the issue with the game, it's very frustrating at this point

    Since Season 3 time nudge just jumps up and down all the time, rarely its at 5ms, as it was before, now it jumps permantenly between 10 and 300ms. pretty much unplayable, before Season 3 it was not an issue

    The devs are literally just ignoring it. Numerous posts on the forums about time nudge, tons of people having this issue, this 500 reply thread, literally visible in the trailer. Are they literally just going to keep ignoring that it exists? I just want some bloody acknowledgment that they're working on it, that they're trying to solve it. Jesus christ, how hard is it to update the "known issues" page.

    @2lrt8vrybenq Well said but it is falling on deaf ears or the Devs are just burying their heads in the sand on this issue. I don't think we'll see this issue addressed in this iteration of the Frostbite engine...something is definitely borked with how this game runs.
