Netcode

I only noticed a couple times it felt like I was being killed behind cover but still mostly having issue with Console players being a couple steps ahead of me 

Its soooOo bad now.

Engagement optimized matchmaking 

Its me or the laszt patch make experience worst ? Reinstalled the game for see if s3 make changes and see this crap are more awefull than before now, cuz weapons are now vibrating much more and bullets spread with AR are like if you hipsfire with M60 Oo

I get there are moments where camping is justified. in obvious circumstances it would be defending a point or objective. However, when people are making a career out of it, and I do believe taking advantage of the cover system and the suppression system, I think it's gotten out of hand, I have friends who do this type of gameplay and consistently get over 100 kills a match, and they think they're the Bees knees, until I destroy them. they're not noobs but that's literally all they're good at, and they're terrible at everything else.

I've noticed this, I can 360 spin with half my mouse mat, and too many times I've hit my tower and still couldn't aim on the target, or the times my sensitivity goes through the roof, or your cursor flies off to the left or the right while aiming on target.

this game is absolute hot **bleep** garbage and on the steam forums it's clear they're using a bunch of bots to try and combat the dumb console issues or they just ban you for calling their childish bots out.

the game has backwards in a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR way since last patch.

there's more instances of super bullets, the bots are dumber than ever before and deaths make even less sense and, on top of having to deal with rollers it's pretty clear there's a fair few pc players using controllers now too to get the various controller assist and/or using hardware spoofers to unlock the assist on mouse and keyboard.

Also,

It is BLATANTLY obvious this game randomizes mouse in put and reg to help other players get an edge over you and ruin the experience.

For example how i can have the corsshairs dead center point blank and NOTHING regges and the other player just gets ALL THE **bleep** REGISTRATION!

You shoot someone first and they just stop running and you die in2 bullets.

it's clear they are randomizing mouse input from game to game, you can have one game that feels good, leave for a break, come back and all of a sudden NOTHING hits despite having the same settings.

With all the AI they used to build the game and updates that dont really fix anything, I am starting to doubt if they even know how to fix all the janky matchmaking things🤔

PC players who bother with the config edit and finally get PC-only and in most cases end up in almost empty lobbies, report the same netcode garbage.

Catch up, this was patched LONG ago and is no longer viable option to force crossplay off. PC players were receiving bans for editing these files so they could improve their experience. Players were being punished for something that was at the root of BF games. I will say again... editing the config file to bypass crossplay on PC is IGNORED when launching the game and finding a match. Even if the file saves your edits, you will see Crossplay OFF on the matchmaking screen but you will still be pared with players on PS5 and XBOX platforms. This is widely known and isn't hard to find on Steam and EA forums. I'd be happy to send a screenshot or record a clip for anyone who doubts the claims here.

Additionally, the experience feels much more different when lobbies are stacked with more or less platform majority. I experience way less anomalies when the majority of players are PC players.

They need to give PC a crossplay toggle like consoles have.

💯 There no need to force players to play on crossplay. If we wait longer, we wait longer or we get bots till it fills up. Implement Crossplay OFF for PC and let the problems manifest after the change, just like DICE's current model of patches and live-testing.

Would be good to see some actual stats published by DICE / EA on all this.

I'd recommend community based statistic collection and analysis before I trust the publisher who would benefit from nudging sentiment to support their investments. Let Reddit users do their thing.

The sheer amount of feedback on crossplay is exactly that, feedback that should not be ignored. Good, bad, critical, or indifferent, EA/DICE has an obligation to consider feedback when the problem continues to manifest time and again.

Its EOMM. I have indenitcal experience vs noobs. Xplay off on xbox or ps5. Doesn't matter. If you play often and drop high kds and win rate you will be placed in unwinnable games with bad team mates, thats sbmm, now if you are able to carry the noobs and win anyways you will then suffer eomm, where you no longer deal damage and every streak you go on will be ended by a low kd player who's kill on you just so happens to put them at even ratio or +1. Or blocks there footsteps audio. Point is you get served up to noobs the more you play. Its eomm. When you quit for a week all of a sudden game works great. Continue to play a week,  bam back to crap. Its eomm. And if it's not removed when server browser and persistent servers drop im permanently done with battlefield.

Sbmm and eomm are artifical and I won't participate in a rigged system 

Every single BF game launched after BF2142 has been a disaster, fixing one thing and breaking another, a cycle of patch fixing patches. Yes, one of the main issues is the netcode!  From 2006 to the present, 2026... 20 years later, the same issue continues to plague BF!

Now, here's the real problem... Think about it. We, the Consumers, continue to purchase the Corporation's broken game.
