Major Server Rubber Banding/Lag
Didn't see a whole lot of talk about this issue (course, I'm getting old so perhaps I'm blind). There are major server rubber banding and lag issues with nearly all servers atm. In-game chat is li...

Same issue. I just left because the lag is so bad it's making the game unplayable. Takes forever to get enough people to start and then you have to deal with lag? Get it together EA before you lose more customers.

Community Admin@harkypoo Thanks for starting the thread. We're seeing that the issues should be resolved now and server performance should be back to normal.
Are you seeing things go back to normal now?
Cheers!
- I played last night and the rubber banding was gone, well done. I was worried about loading up the kashyyyk map but it was actually enjoyable last night.
Good to hear. Fingers crossed.
@EA_David Things are definitely looking better!
Thanks for replying to the thread and I hope you had a great Holiday weekend.
- @EA_David I think others would agree with me in saying that there has been SOME improvement but still not fixed completely. Still alot of room for improvement.
Could you also tell me why everytime I connect to a server it's in London when I live on the east coast of the USA? I have geo pinged every server I connect to and can see its always in London area which makes no sense to me. This is during games but it looks like when I'm in the menu I'm connected to new York.
Im sure everyone is having the same issue but doesn't realize it.

Cheers!This should not be marked as a solution. It's not fixed.
Lag was as bad as ever in starfighter assault late yesterday.
I have to say, it's quite concerning that EA implied the issue should be all-but eradicated when its clearly not. That is a bad sign (and this coming from someone who's been sticking up for EA).
If I were EA, I'd make sure some type of announcement gets published this week as to what's going on to address issues and when people should expect some fixes. Comments in multiple venues (e.g. Amazon) are getting worse and worse. Sales is going to take an even bigger hit, it EA doesn't aggressively address the PR issue.
Worse today. Some maps I can't even move or I just get my position reset every couple seconds.
FFS, give me a server browser or let me set a maximum acceptable latency when matchmaking. I get killed half the time by multiple people I can't see around corners because they rubberband before I can even see them. It's completely unplayable most of the time.This. Can't play it, after paying that much for the game. C'mon now EA.. I've played all of your Battlefield games, been a veteran and stuff, then got to Star Wars series, and now this is what we pay for? To glide over the whole map and get killed out of nowhere because the whole server is rubber banding? Yeah, great rubber banding experience, 10/10 would glide over the whole map again after paying 60€. I can't imagine the disappointment of people who bought the Deluxe edition.

Thanks for getting an announcement out today, @EA_David Can I count on EA doing something within 12 hours of my suggesting it in the future? 😉
By back to normal do you mean two steps forward, one step back every single minute while trying to play a game that some people paid $90 for? If that's the case, then yes. I am seriously done with EA after this.
Everyone on the Australian servers are still seeing this problem when will it be fixed this is getting to be beyond a joke
As everyone else here has mentioned, this is still happening and is getting worse. It used to be the occasional "rubber band" on a few maps, now it's every 10 seconds on every single map.
Literally unplayable.
- I'm still experiencing issues, played last night. South Africa servers, I either get placed in a empty server or im being placed in a different region. Slow connection indicators and my fibre line is perfect. Pls investigate this
- It keeps saying slow internet connection even though I just got my internet upgraded. I am really close to just trading it in
I have been crashing to desktop again 5+ times a day since last patch. Went 2 weeks of no issue. The servers are junk. I am 100% convinced it isn't us, it's them. So sad because I love the game. On a 30+ kill streak as Lando(I'm not that good) and pow! Freeze, crash to desktop. So freaking frustrating!
Sorry, still experiencing. About 1-2 seconds loop, sometimes several time in a row. More severe when flying. Bearable when walking. PS4 Pro. On LAN connection.
