Issues since the netcode patch
Since the May 5th update (season 2), the game has suddenly become increasingly frustrating to play. I used to be about a 3 K/D now I'm barely scraping 1K/D. Im nearly rank 360 so I have put time into this game, and I'm telling you the last 10 days or so playing this game has been a completely different experience for me compared to the release of the game.
I no longer have any reaction time, in one one of situations, it's like I'm stuck in mud. I feel slow and clumsy. It doesn't matter if I have the advantage, I shoot before them, it seems like they don't even see me sometimes (on my screen), and all of a sudden all of their bullets register at once and I'm dead. There is some kind of delay I'm getting now.
Last night for example Firestorm I was aiming out of a ground level window.... 2 people were crossing maybe 80-100 meters horizontally by. I have the clear advantage as only my upper body is showing, and that is a pretty good distance. I killed the first person, then the second person seemed to instantly turn, all the bullets hit me instantly and I'm dead. There is NO way from that distance he should be able to register all of those bullets in me, with most of my body behind cover and I literally couldn't even react? Sure maybe he got headshots. but being that i was pre-aimed, aiming right at him, I never even saw him turn or aim at me.....it was like he was running sideways, BOOM im dead.
i think everyone has experience netcode issues, dying behind cover, or some of what i have explained. But its just constant for me now. Its a night and day different how the game played ebfore May 5th and after.
The netcode fix is supposed to give people more reaction time, its given me FAR less. Its like Im playing delayed all the time. I don't know why or how the changes are affecting me like this but its seriously making me not want to play anymore (I usually play nightly)
This update Im talking about was a week before the season 3 update. Now with the new season 3 update with random recoil, thats certainly not making things any better.
I've searched online and Im not seeing anyone else having this big of an issue since that update, so just curious if anyone else out there is in the same boat? because as it stands, its not like EA will be making any changes to this and I feel like thats it for me and BF6, im just getting far to angry playing now!!
