Severe Hit Reg, Netcode, and Ping Problems Since Latest Patch
Hit Registration Issues
Since the November 18 update, hit registration has felt significantly worse. I’m frequently landing multiple confirmed headshots—two headshots dealing 62 damage each (124 total)—yet the enemy survives and turns to kill me almost instantly. Overall, gameplay feels off: I’m seeing plenty of hitmarkers, but it seems like only around 40% are actually registering as damage.
Netcode Problems
Post-update, I’ve been dying behind cover or through walls far more often than before. These deaths feel instantaneous, even from weapons that should deal relatively low close-quarters damage (e.g., the MP7 at 16 damage).
Ping / Latency Degradation
Since the same update, my ping has noticeably worsened. I’m on a high-speed fibre connection (1Gb down / 600Mb up), hard-wired via CAT6 to an ASUS TUF-AX6000. My ping has gone from a stable 20ms to fluctuating between 38–60ms.
Matchmaking Times
Matchmaking has also taken a huge hit. During peak hours, Conquest queues are taking 2–4 minutes, which is extremely unusual.
DICE, please fix
Additional Concern: Cheating
Please also look into the companies openly selling cheats on platforms like YouTube and TikTok. Cheating is becoming increasingly blatant and is having a noticeable impact on gameplay.
