GAMEAHOLICBD This has just been my experience, which is why I don’t believe that the continuous lag is actually the issue here. It seems more like the game is spamming inaccurate info rather than reflecting true network conditions, with periods of random lag mostly when you are not playing PVP (go figure). That’s not to dismiss the well-known connectivity issues—whether it’s on the user’s end, the opponent’s, or the network providers—that’s a whole other Pandora’s box.
But in this case, it feels more like the game more often than not is spamming out misleading information that's just making players unnecessarily anxious, mixed with the tell-tale symptoms of the typical server's congestion/load.
Either way, this needs to be looked at, and EA should comment on it.
