I don't know what you did, but the lag is gone for me after two weeks of server hell--thank you.

The lag is the only big issue i have with this game. Fix that for me and I will be happy. The other niggly thing is that the mic wont work for me and I normally cant hear other players voices. So its not really a proper team game. More, every-man for himself as its not possible to plan attacks or defense.

Lag seems to worse in North America, playing EST from 08H30 to 15H00. Very noticable whn trying to knife, shoot moving enemies etc. Goes without saying moon walking and freeze framing still a major issue. My game freezes at least once a day requiring me to restart my system.

First of all I'll apologise if this has already been mentioned but It's late and I'm lazy and not going to read through 22 pages...

so...

Sometimes when I re-spawn I'm suddenly playing as assault with the M416 without changing my kit....

Only a small niggle, but one that sometimes annoys. Especially when I'm tank whoring and don't realise until I jump out of the tank to repair only to find a syringe in my hand instead of the power tool... ARRGGHHH!!!

A small annoyance, but an annoyance none the less...

So are you going to be fixing the glitched wildcard for top squad so that we can get all the achievements which we paid for? It's been out a while and I'd like to have my 1000 gamerscore please. If you are planning on making some more new maps, could you please fix this glitch beforehand?

Default Game lag

Hi i am new to this forum yet have been playing Battlefield for some time now. i am rank 25 and play daily. The only problem i have is, during the day i can never play online the game lags all the time and it switches my weapons for me and does not let me join my squad, this is annoying and is really making me have a bad experience with the game yet at 3 am the game suddenly works fine. PLEASE fix this bug as i rate bad company better then call of duty

cheers

Default To EA technical support

In PS3 why do we not have voice chat during multiplayer game, this will make game so much better, cause then we all can coordinate our actions and do not run like an idiots just to kill somebody... I just start playing, and I think this game hase a massive future, cause it is way better than any of idiotic Call of Duty... And it is very close to the internet king like Ghost Recon Advanced Fighter 2... But in GRAW2 everybody can speak with the team mates and that is why it is so special... and also why we can't create our own rooms and ivite people I wont to play... Sorry lads if I am to demanding, but i seen this feature in many other games...

Anyway I think you are greate... But please at least think about it... and the net will be totally yours...!!!

Default bug on 'Par for the Course'

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right thread to post this on, but I need to report a bug.

On 'Par for the Course,' sometimes when I fly the chopper, my xbox freezes and I have to do a cold-boot. This has happened about 5 times now, and it never happens under any other circumstances. I don't remember if each time it's happened it happened with the same chopper / kit, but I can tell you that the last time it did, I was in the russian chopper with an MG3 Support Kit.

It also only seems to happen when I take the chopper from the base without the big concrete landing pad... forget what the name is.

Thanks,
RAMB0

I don't know if this was said already, but please offer a zoom in feature for sniper rifles. Other games feature why shouldn't you guys do it also? Depending on the the gun it should be 1x. 2x. 3x, up to 5x zoom. Another feature would be nice is being able to customize your kit depending on the condition of the map you're playing on. It would be to mix and match kits.

Also you guys should definitely put in some sort of Stinger Missile. I mean common its freaking hard to shoot down an enemy helicopter with a rpg or bazooka launcher and the freaking machine guns takes forever to deal damage. I think a heat seeking fire and forget anti aircraft launcher would be nice, to get rid of those skill pilots.

We need more weapons and vehicles. The vehicles should be equal as to how many players on each team. Give us more helicopters to fly. I'm sick of fighting with my teammates for 1 heli or get shot and killed just for running towards the heli by my own teammates. We need more Apaches for the American side and stop giving us bunk caddillac flying boat Russian made junk helicopters. They're pitifull and are no match agianst the Apache AH64. Point is more helicopters.

1 more thing I enjoyed Battlefield Vietnam and 1 thing i would take from that game is being able to respawn from a heli and parachute down into your enemy base. That would be a awesome feature.

Default bbc2 parachute to come back to the game!

Are they gonna bring back the parachute as that was brilliant as you had no limits to where your soldier could go to jumping out of the helicopter.
They really need to put that back in the game aswell as going prone.

so the stat padders might have been a little surprised and i hope whatever you done has worked although i know of a way to stat padd i dont do it but i dont know where to report this or even if you guys are already aware of the bug or what the code of conduct says about making everything explode?? can someone tell me where i report something that could damage an otherwise perfectly stable game? i have more than one issue that still lets players cheat to the point where they would probably get kills and points without kills i thought they would have been fixed hence the long delay on my feedback.

its because of suicidalist maniacs like you that people dont get a parachute why not try getting a friend thats good enough to fly over a building really fast so that you can jump out with no chance of death from the fall thats entertainment friend

This is off topic a little but have you noticed that when exiting a vehicle it randomly places you on one side or the other, and naturally in the direction of incoming fire?
Shouldn't you exit the same side you entered? That stupid lalalalalala has gotten me killed many times since i have no idea what to expect when i randomly end up on the left or right side of a vehicle.

there still a problem with the in-game ranks? My rank badge is different in-game than it is on the website. How long has this been going on for?

The aiming is really terrible in this game. I am a Call of Duty 4 owner and I play each of these games equally. COD4's aiming is far superior to this game. When I shoot from the hip and my guns reticle in COD4 is on the enemy he dies like he should. In BFBC I can have the reticle locked on a guy and use a full clip and still not kill him. What gives? COD4 is much more fluid in the handling. You should really spend a lot of time tuning these FPS before you release them. I really like the concept of all the vehicles, but the control is frustrating. This could be my favorite FPS if I could just jump in and kill somebody like in COD4. Please fix in an update. Ugh!

bad company 2 coming out next year. that's what dice is busy doing right now. no more fixes or maps for this game. the lag should go down now that people are playing other games. hopefully bad company 2 will be much improved.

you have to realize this game is more strategy based then walking in and get an instant kill, cod is so popular because kid's attention spans are lowering and they cant handle taking their time in FPSs anymore. I personally dislike cod in several ways because of the high spawn kill rate and the small size of the maps meant for way to fast action

I guess if you like claustrophobic maps, where you spawn on top of each other and are lucky to live a minute before being taken out then, COD4 is your game. I do hear some complaints, from mostly younger players, about not liking the larger maps. They keep playing anyway. I love the big maps and fluid playability of BC. BC is addicting. With all the vehicles, aircraft, kits and variety of maps to choose from, it's got way better dynamics and replay value then COD4 or WAW.

Compared to any of the battlefield games, COD sucks!

bad company is getting way too hard during the day. I thought it was supposed to be a ranked game but i am continuously getting killed as soon as i see someone no matter the gun there's is more affective. My m16 ought to murder some guys pistol its like they made everyone's weapons but mine stronger. I cant play for a whole round anymore its ridiculous to die 15 times and get one kill in a round.the battlefield needs to be leveled out and all these teams that all they do is play bad company you know they all have the same name those people need to create their own game.Some of us don't have time to sit and play 24/7. i hate to say it but doubt i play this game anymore way too pointless i like to be challenged not killed every time i spawn.

If you play a ranked match, you should be matched with players of your similar rank automatically. However, there may not be enough noobs to go around these days so, you're going to end up playing more experienced players as the pool of players mature. I hear more of the noobs play un-ranked matches these days until they get the hang of things. Try it. Otherwise, try a different kit and/or weapon for a while and step up your game, dude. That's what I do if I'm having a bad game. Suck it up, soldier!
