Packet Loss Out - BF4 PC
Hello there! Here is a traceroute to a random server that I get under 50ms ping on, but have gotten as high as 38% packet out loss. I am playing the game through the EA desktop app with EA play via...

He must of seen your tracert, he wasn't calling you toxic, just the two routers that were dropping all those packets. BF4 uses UDP so when a router starts dropping packets the game will do all sorts of weird stuff.
I'm glad your ISP helped some with your connection but those routers dropping packets are going to cause you unending headaches. You need to escalate with your ISP and see if they can contact the router owners that are causing all the issues.
Indeed @sk1lld ,
Not sure what triggered @Heret1c121 to think otherwise, as just highlighted the ISP could improve his line quality by simply lowering the line speed just a bit. As the gaming do not need at all all that line speed he had.
But that appear to confuse some players. (even the super experienced ones... 🙂)
The game cannot even utilize higher speeds. But higher speeds compromise the line quality. Hence the reason to lower the speed to enable a consistently high quality line and get rid of the package drops.
Happy that your ISP got it fixed for you @Heret1c121 !
