Rubberbanding is driving me insane. (Battlefield 4)

[Seegee911]

Am I the only one who is having severe rubberbanding in game? I'm trying to figure out if it's me, my router, my isp or the servers. This is a persistent problem that makes aircraft unplayable, vehicles difficult, and foot soldier annoying. It's really starting to detract from my enjoyment of the game. I run speedtest.net and I get 90+ Mbit with a ping of 23. PS4 Internet test gives 25Mbit+, using cat5e straight into the router. Grrr!

Yeah,agree.
It doesnt always happen to me but yesterday it was also pissing me off.
Started a game and was OK for a minute then soon after it was crap.

I also dunno if was my connection (cant be as Ghosts worked fine) the time of day with internet congestion etc or just the damn game.

I tell ya what,BF4 can be awesome,but with issues like this it makes it damn near unplayable.

I get it much more on the naval strike maps than any other. I'm not sure what the cause is... Could it be server related?

I'm assuming you're talking about BF4? Yeah, the rubberbanding REALLY needs to be fixed. The game's been out for a long time and they barely acknowledged the problem last week. I've also noticed that it's more annoying on NS maps like OP said. It gets really obnoxious on Operation Mortar for me.

Yeah,we are talking about BF4. This topic was in the BF4 game game sub forum before so you coud easily see its for BF4.But now we only have PS4 games forum.
However Im pretty sure that you will see certain PS4 game specific sub forums back soon and this topic will be moved there.

Sucks when EA advertised that Battlefield 4 will have 64 players on Ps4, we do get 64 players... And rubberbanding. They showed us footage wherein the game ran smoothly on 64 players, not surprised that it was all staged. Can't even have fun, especially on Metro 2014!

I hope DICE and EA sort their crap out first before releasing another DLC. :/

Right now I'm just playing Domination and TDM, seems to be lag free.

Certain maps are known to have lag issues. Also, if you are experiencing lag and no one else on the server is, it might be on your end.

It is most likely the servers.

They are still fairly new, and they are sure to have their set of issues. Has this always been a problem? Or did this just start? Your internet speed is amazing, so i know that is not the issue here. Did you check on the PlayStation official site? They usually acknowledge these type of issues.

Especially with a game as popular as Battlefield 4, nut like i said It is most likely the servers, i am sure it will be fixed a few days.

Conquest- 64 Players

^^^^ those maps are mostly the ones that cause this bad rubberband issue. I personally stick with smaller maps nowadays until EA/DICE sort this issue out which in my opinion, is not going to happen as they are busy swimming in their pool of money thinking about releasing their next DLC.

Same here. My internet connection is not a problem. I can run all my games just fine but BF4. Netcode is killing me! I can't even run for 45 seconds straight without experiencing rubberbanding. If you play on less crowded servers, it is less often experienced.
