Battlefield 4 – DICE ‘Unhappy With Server Performance,’ “Rubber-Banding” Fix Incoming

MP1st - Battlefield 4 Naval Strike has officially launched for all Battlefield 4 Premium member across all platforms. But for many, the experience is being marred by a recent bout of severe server lag, or what many refer to as “rubber-banding”.

Wow.. how many months has this been going on? Never will I be a DICE game at launch

ZodTheRipper3667d ago

At least 5 months, this has to be a f****ing joke.
Now they are suddenly unhappy with the server performance? How many times have EA execs defended the performance of BF4? They were even sued for it back in december

This is simply ridiculous, it's about time some eyes are opened at EA. This is NOT how you treat paying customer.

JetsFool35003667d ago

If they really care they'd give us premium members a free map pack instead of sum bullshit player appreciation month that costs them nothing

Glad I skipped this one. I've played BF since it launched with 1942. After BF3 I already knew the direction it was headed and I'm glad I ended it there.

I would have hated to see one of my favorite fps franchises go to crap like this.

Yes!! Nobody can tell you what to be man!

Who knows how long it'll take them to implement the new servers. My guess is 2 months from now. Which is great, 7 months after release you're game actually may work as intended.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot749d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250748d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface748d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop748d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno748d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel749d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps748d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888748d ago (Edited 748d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33748d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888748d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH748d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
