Time Nudge (TN) issue Megathread
Hello! I've been dealing with issues relating to Time Nudge spikes (can manifest either as high lag or "slow-motion") and high consistent Time Nudge since about Battlefield 2042 update #3.0.0, ...

Same issue here. Tried all the usual stuff to improve CPU performance. Everything works fine until I get into a close quarter gun fight, FPS (CPU side) drops, resulting in larger TN, resulting in things sliding, rubber banding.
Also often happens when in vehicles, but likely similar problem: high CPU load -> can not keep up with server.
I play on a 7840U laptop CPU, 32 GB ram at 6400 and an eGPU 3060 TI. Not the most ideal setup but I would think I should still be able to have a playable game at 45 FPS. The standard should not be that if I can not run a game at 60FPS, I can not play online.
Note that I have tried lowering everything to bare minimum, even rendering. Same issue. The base CPU usage of the game is enough to cause this issue.
it sounds like the CPU might be thermal throttling and lowering the CPU speed. For example, the CPU speed drops from 4GHz down to 3GHz.
You can verify if this happening or not with the following steps.
- Run the game in windowed mode (alt + enter)
- Open Task Manager (alt + ctrl + del)
- Open the Performance tab, then right-click on the CPU graph and choose "Change graph to > Logical processors".
- Set Task Manager to 'always on top' by clicking option
Now you can play the game and monitor CPU speed.
It is most definitely throttling my CPU, but that does not change the fact that even on the base clock or lower it should manage a stable game.
Note, I have also tried underclocking and watching the thermals of my CPU as part of my journey to make things work. At that point there was no longer any throttling on the system, but the result was still high TN and issues.
I fully expect my system to underperform. But not being able to even sync with the server seems like a clear case of something being unoptimized 🤔
LetalisLatro you could try lowering the RAM speed to 6,000MHz so the memory clock and the Infinity Fabric clock runs at a 1:1 ratio.
I don't know if it will make a difference or not.
