Time Nudge still a thing
Since the other threads keep getting closed (one went 104 pages!), I assure you its still a thing. With a ping of 27m/s, and watching the TN hover around 11, then shoot up to over 200 while my game j...

Which specific thread are you talking about, if I may ask?
We still have quite a few threads about High TN, especially High TN since Season 3(.) Update (which is most likely related to the PC performance/the CPU issue the teams are investigating).
A few examples:
This is one of the current bigger ones: (PC) Severe Packet Loss After Season 3 Update
But we also have:
- Heavy (Mouse-) Input Latency since latest Patch (rare before that patch)
- Hit reg issues, TTK vs TTD inconsistency post 3.1 update
- Time Nudge Spikes on My Own Server
- I'm having really high time nudge and I don't know why
So, take your pick. 🙂
@EA_LeeuwI’ll try to find it and share a link. (EDIT - Found: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Game-Freeze-Crash-since-18-10-22/td-p/11958907/highlight/true/page/104) The number of posts on the issue does seem to be growing. 3.1 did a number on 2042 that much is clear.
@ATFGunr TN issues are mostly caused at client side. Has to do with Bios, Hardware , Software settings/installations !
Post a dxdiag for investigation of your hardware and drivers !
Thanks.I'd love for you to find something I am not. Note this was not an issue prior to 3.1, not to this extent anyways. Other info indicates TN issues are server side, so why do you say its client side? I appreciate your desire to help, my natural suspicions about the interwebs make me have to ask what your background is?

The topic of that thread was not related to a High TN, but game client freezes/crashes etc. The teams found the cause of that specific issue and that specific issue got resolved, hence why we locked the thread. 🙂
TN is indeed client side, it is related to the performance of your PC. If you have a high TN since the Season 3 or 3.1 Update, and you didn't before, I would currently assume that it is related to the CPU issue the teams are investigating.
- @EA_LeeuwOk. I haven’t been experiencing the high CPU spikes, my 5800x runs about 70% at load, 32GB of 3600mhx RAM is at 60%, I don’t track my GPU usage but it’s a ROG 3060ti at the factory OC and it’s running at 60c and not working hard. Settings are all at high, with everything on.
- EA_Leeuw@ATFGunr, gotcha, cheers for the extra info. In that case I also have the feeling it is related to the same potential cause of this topic: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Heavy-Mouse-Input-Latency-since-latest-Patch-rare-before-that/td-p/12072244.
Just to confirm a couple of things; before the Season 3/3.1 Update, you did not have a high TN?
- @EA_Leeuw I posted this in the TTK thread responding to Ray, wanted to put it here too:
Do you have the network bars on? The graph too? I’ve noticed when the latency and average latency is less than 10 difference, and the blue line, and I’m not sure what the blue line at the bottom is but I think it’s time nudge (it’s not identified), but it’s steady and less than 10 then I know it’s a server that likes me. I have no idea why. My usual latency is 28. If average latency is 40 or more, I’m out. It makes that much of a difference to my game. If I can get less than ALAT 38 then I seem to get substantially less TN and I can get some hit reg. ALAT 36 and TN of 4, and I’ve found the Valhalla server. I would play on that server all day if I could mark is a favourite (cough server browser cough). I think it’s all connected
