Garden Ops is hosted by players and is very hit-n-miss because of this.

Gardens vs Graveyards (and other MP modes) are hosted by EA, which I believe is Amazon AWS.

As already suggested, and the above is the why of it, if you are not hosting, play the Gardens / Graveyards on EA's servers, and avoid the Garden Ops. 

I am getting lagged back many times in a game and it was not that way a few weeks ago. Something has changed and I am trying to see who else has this problem. I see this thread started about the time when unplayable lagging back started.

Did they change servers to South America or something? It seems like I am trying to connect to a server with such norrible lag and I wish we had a server browser to choose our server to play on. So many problems all at once here.

@SgtRocky1369 If you're playing Garden Ops like the other posters in this thread, you're not connecting to a server at all - just another player and using them as the host. If they're connection is less than great, you will experience latency and connection issues - that's why its better to host your own games.

Garden Ops is heavily dependent on the host's processing power and, more importantly, internet connection. If the latter is prone to latency, you'll get lagged and rubberbanded to hell, randomly booted, or - if you're lucky - told you can't connect to the game to begin with.

If you're confident in your PC and your internet connection, hosting a Garden Ops match is a better bet than joining one; the drawback is that it may take a little before you see others join.

I was playing gardens and graveyards..the rubberbanding has really got out of hand. I thought they moved all the servers to a continent other than where I was connecting from.
