As someone who frequently plays with EU players in other games, I've noticed huge issues, as well. Either I host and they are subject to lagging like crazy, or they host (which is, of course, preferable) and I can't manage to actually play. It becomes a chore, really. I'm just trudging along, tailing everyone and occassionally getting a hit or two in. That's not fun, and DA:I (as amazing as it is) has been the only game to cause such issues for me. Maybe it's because it goes on a P2P system, rather than one with dedicated servers? I can't say for certain.
I'm also experiencing those problems :/
Funny thing is, this is only happening for THIS game, even on ME3 MP i was able to play without many issues, but on DAI the rubberbanding really takes away from the experience.
I'd like to but i don't even have the will to log and play because i know i'll experience those gamebreaking(For me) issues
go to your start menu
and in the serch window type services.msc
in the new window, scroll down to where windows media player is,
right click and select properties,
set to either manual or disabled
I have noticed many, many times that rubberbanding was due to window media player sharing servies running in the back ground...
I NEVER USE IT... so I disabled it, and it did help a little.

Latency and FPS are totally unrelated. This is a latency issue and nothing to do with the 60 FPS non-sense. DA:I multiplayer is P2P, meaning someone in your part is the host. You might remember this type of multiplayer from games 10+ years ago. There is absolutely nothing you can do except find a good host, preferably physically near you (same state / region).
I would agree , but I'm playing with a friend of mine who lives less than sixty miles from me, is in the same state, and has extremely fast internet. But I'm still getting the exact same issues with him as host as I'm getting in a quick match with four random people from across the world. It doesn't matter what we do, multiplayer is laggy to the point of breaking. I very much enjoy MP, especially co-op MP, but not like this.
