Lag when playing on NA servers from europe

Hello everyone.

So i've been suffering from this issue for a while now,I live in Europe but am part of a BFV clan (United brotherhood) and they are located in America,so whenever we play together I have to join american servers,sadly am experiencing high ping .I used to get 110-115 ms but recently am getting 168 ms and stable.I tried a few things like trying BF1 or BF4 but I get the same ping (168ms) when I search for american located servers.next thing I tried was port-forwarding but to no avail ,all of this I tried whilst my one drive syncing was paused cuz I had issues with connectivity before while it was on.I did contact EA twice but they just did the same procedures and didnt work.

  • @Heavens-Keeper Can be many reasons to why your are getting higher MS from server joining from east to west coast of US for example.

  • @EA_AticHey

    I am speaking only about east coast server,the ping on them jumped from 102-110ms to 160 ms, west coast on the other hand from 160 ms to 200 ms ,i forgot to mention that if i use vpn in community games and search for east coast US servers I get the normal 110 but cuz of vpn I have packet loss and fear to get banned if I use it on normal servers

    @Heavens-Keeper that sounds like the ISP you have are having some issues connecting to the US based server or some of the routers/Servers sending on your data are having issues. If VPN works.

    Don't play with 100+ latency on NA servers, when you have regional servers closer to you.

    That is no excuse to mess up the servers of local players with your high latency, when you have perfectly fine local servers available to you.
