IPV6 causing massive lag

Hi everyone,

there is a very old and long thread in the german section of this forum. It was started by the german community manager, asking for information about lag and IPV6.
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065670164156781/1/ [battlelog.battlefield.com]

The thread is two month old and 42 pages long (remember - only german users). But the community manger hasn't given as any update or is reacting on twitter/facebook on this matter, while a lot of players give constructive feedback.

I just want to try to get some attention for this kind of problem. I know its not the only problem regarding lags/rubberbanding, but all the users on this thread report the same problem - they have internet provider ("Unitymedia") with IPV6, which can't change it to IPv4.

It seems that people who got a IPV6 internet connection suffer under extreme lags - in my own experience I can say one second lags every 5-7 seconds. The problem here is, that having IPV6 is ONLY affecting Bf4 and causes packet loss. ALL users report no packetloss with other applications/games - only Bf4.

I hope this gets some attention and will get fixed soon, as it affects a lot of players (in germany Unitymedia is one of the biggest providers - I don't know how many players from other countries got IPV6 too)

Btw: I hoped the patch on the 18.02 would fix this - it didn't
