[BF6] Share Your Experience: Hitreg, Rubberbanding, and Connection Icons

Hey everyone 👋

We’re taking a closer look at reports related to hit registration issues, rubberbanding, and how the current connection warning icons behave during matches. Some players have mentioned that these issues occur consistently for them, and we’d love to gather more real-world in-game examples to help us understand what’s happening in different situations.

If you experience these issues regularly and are willing to share screenshots or short videos, your contribution would be extremely helpful.

What We’re Looking For

1. Rubberbanding or connection-feeling issues

If you see warning icons frequently or experience movement stutters/teleporting:

Please share:

  • A screenshot or short video
    • If you’re sharing screenshots, make sure to attach them to your post -- do not embed them. This helps ensure they display correctly for everyone.

  • With the Simple Performance Overview enabled
  • With the Full Network Overlay enabled

These help us understand whether the in-game icons match what’s actually happening with your performance or connection at that moment.

2. Consistent hit registration problems

If hitreg regularly feels off for you:

Please share:

  • A short video showing the moment(s) where it happens
  • With both overlays enabled (Simple Performance + Network Overlay)

This allows us to distinguish between true network issues and client-side performance issues that can sometimes appear similar.

How to Enable the Overlays

Below are the steps for both PC and console players.

🎮 Console (PS5 / Xbox Series)

Simple Performance Overview

  1. Open Settings in the game menu.
  2. Go to Graphics.
  3. Scroll to Performance Overlay (sometimes under “Advanced”).
  4. Turn it On, choosing either:
    • Simple, or
    • Advanced/Extended (if available)

Network Overlay

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Go to Network, or Gameplay → Advanced, depending on your layout.
  3. Enable Network Performance Overlay or Network Graph.

Once enabled, you’ll see indicators like latency, packet loss, and connection stability.

🖥️ PC

Simple Performance Overview

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Go to Graphics.
  3. Scroll to Advanced.
  4. Enable Performance Overlay.
  5. Choose Simple or Advanced/Extended.

Full Network Overlay

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Go to Network or Gameplay → Advanced.
  3. Enable Network Performance Overlay or Network Graph.

Optional PC console command method

(Only if you’ve enabled the console in settings.)

  1. Go to Settings → System, enable Command Console.
  2. Press ~ (tilde) in-game.
  3. Use the command: PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1
  4. To turn it off: PerfOverlay.DrawFps 0

How to Share Your Screenshots/Videos

Please upload your clips using:

  • Google Drive
  • OneDrive
  • Dropbox
  • Imgur
  • Streamable
  • YouTube (unlisted is fine)

Important:
Ensure your link is set to public or “Anyone with the link can view.” Private links cannot be opened.

If you’re sharing screenshots, make sure to attach them to your post -- do not embed them. This helps ensure they display correctly for everyone.

What Happens After You Share

We may reply with follow-up questions or ask if you are open to trying a couple of small tests (like adjusting FPS caps or checking CPU usage). This is completely optional and intended only to help narrow down the causes.

We’re not making promises about outcomes -- the goal here is simply to gather clear, consistent examples so we can better understand what players are experiencing.

How to Participate

When posting your report, please include:

  1. A public link to your screenshot/video
  2. A short description of what happened
  3. Your platform (PC, PS5, Xbox Series)
  4. Whether the issue is consistent/reproducible for you

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to share examples -- it genuinely helps move these investigations forward and improves the experience for all players.
