Checked locally, everything working fine here,seems everybody in server has high increased latency.Not only that, but on xbox one x, it seems you get killed in one frame alot, by what feels like you only got hit for example, by 3 bullits, when you are at full health, and your audio dips out for a second, because you loose frames, or that one frame dident register properly on your end?Or the more obvious visual, you hit an enemie for over 200% when you should of killed him at 100%.Or Just generally feel like everyone is few seconds ahead of you. at random times.

@EA_Kent I´m playing on PC. Packet loss has happened before, but it was very rare and never on different servers at the same time.

Just started getting this issue again recently the last couple weeks on PC. High (red) packet loss and triple normal ping ONLY in Battlefield. Any server..I tried other games and had no problems.So I reinstalled, no luck.Speed tests are all great looking on every speed test I could find.I even got a new coax splitter from my ISP and replaced my ethernet cable to my PC just in case.I've tried going DMZ through my router with no luck, as well as disabling IPV6 with no luck.You know what DID work? Running a VPN! Looks like there might be an issue connecting between my local ISP and EA servers? I don't know how it all works but it looks like I have to run a VPN to get it to work properly.I was about to try manually forwarding ports on my router, but it looks like running the VPN works wonders using a local server. Same ping in game as normal, no lag, no more packet loss issues, etc. so I'm just gonna use that as my "fix."

@N4v1s I appreciate it! Is everyone else also playing on PC? /Kent

Thanks for the additional info, everyone. The Battlefield team is currently investigating some connection issues, which might be related. I'd recommend keeping out on this thread for updates. Thanks again! /Kent

Hey @Death2375, Is this happening with one specific server, or are you seeing it on any that you're joining? /Kent

Hey @Death2375 The servers are just coming back online after the recent outages so there is bound to be a little lag here and there - I figure everything will be running smoothly again very soon

This just starting happening for me as well, server packet loss I’m also getting the server problem icon in red. My ping to server is 35 east coast and it’s happening on every server I join. This was not an issue before the servers went down over weekend. My side is fine.

@Death2375 Same for me. I´m experiencing unusual packet loss every time I play and the lag you see in the movement with some players is really annoying.
