Battlefield is so much fun but my game freezes when I go to the custom menu and sometimes in quick match. Single player is fine, but I miss playing online. Any solutions?

My mayor gripes spawn rapers and the inabillity to locate the enemy (even tanks) that are shooting on you, i real live you have a wider view and can hear were the shots are coming from, at least within a certain range make the enemy show up on the rader.

and the lag is killing me, i shoot people they turn around and shoot me

Could we have an option in place for team killers? a team option to boot akin to l4d. e.g. 'Do you want to boot player gamertag? his score (team killing) is: - score'


or have an auto boot amount. If a player gets to -50 -60 the game will automatically boot him out.

yeah i too believe about the lag situation i love this game since its realistic but for gods sake fix the LAG! i don't know how many times i've shot at someone first registering hits then they turn around and kill me its rediculous. i was playing the other night and when i backed up i saw my figure where i had been previously standing. This game would be absolutly perfect if it wasn't for all the lag issues

just got through playing (didn't finsih the match and i know its only been a few since my last post) and can't believe that a good connection (shows green at scoreboard) had so much lag to it. I would advise all the good people who spent money on the game to not buy another battlefield series game until its apparent that the issues are fixed with older versions of battlefield. Why stain a great series through lazyness of not fixing problems for customers who don't want or don't have the money to buy the latest version of battlefield. Thats why people often prefer CoD4 and others of that series is because they can rely on the game still having a great performance without having to worry about having the latest version of it. A great series has fallen among giants in my opinion

Default Underbelly granade launcher problems,

has anyone else had any problems getting kills with the granade launcher.
Been trying to do the challange to get six kills in a match with it but for some strange reason everyone seem to be immune splash damage from it.
I mean you have to directly impact the person your trying to kill with the granade to do any damage, it just seems like a major flaw in the game. If a normal granade lands beside you it will kill you even from a few feet away, but not one from the granade launcher!! I can blow massive hole's in walls with it but not apparently in people. can anyone explain to me why this is?

Default Lag Madness

EA needs to give some indication that they are not going to turn their back on all previous titles during the release of a new game. BF:BC lag is RIDICULOUS! I have never had lag issues on any other online game on my 360. The problem is obviously EA's servers. It really aggravates me that EA can make games that are really well designed, and yet drop the ball completely on the game maintenance and stability. I quit playing WAR because the game lagged horribly on a top of the line cpu, and I start playing BF:BC on the 360 thinking: surely they can't screw this one up too. Well, thank you for showing me that you can maintain your poor quality across all gaming platforms. I was looking forward to BF:BC2, but with the continued aggravation I really doubt I'll be wasting my money on any of your future titles.

I've noticed a lot of this sentiment through out this forum, and very little in the way of a response to any of the complaints or query's. The title should read 'cause your feed back doesnt matter, we only want you to think we care' I read through issues that seem to be affecting the game since it's launch, and countless numbers of people complaining about them but only getting the standard corp fob off.

Saturdays seem to cause a big spike in the numbers of people playing, which means that the "preferred match" results end up on the wrong map. Look EA, I get that some maps are full, but don't go putting me in a map I never asked for in the first place. It's a complete waste of time. How could anyone testing the game not realize that? Baffling.

Speaking of Bad Company and testing, why is it there are still servers that do not perform adequately? Last summer, every other server had the ridiculous lag where you'd go teleporting back five feet after you started walking. Now the lag is more subtle, but is clearly obvious when you're in certain vehicles. It seems self-evident that to remain employed at DICE would require a moderate level of intelligence. But anyone possessing this level of intelligence would recognize which servers are not performing as they should. Taken together, how do we, a year later, still have these server issues, and why are the people in charge still employed at DICE or EA?

Default bull sh--

your server sucks I was just on and couldn't move why don't you fix it or don't you know how and why isn't there a phone number we can call when we can not play? Are you afraid of hearing the truth? I want to know if this is how 2 is going to run if it is I'm not going to buy it.

Our Bad Company developers have been working a lot in the last two years and, we have managed to produce a game that we are very proud of. Even with the game already in stores, we would like to let you know that we are reading and listening to all of your feedback.

Right now the team is working on creating the Conquest game mode for Battlefield: Bad Company together with the conversion of the maps to go with it. The Conquest Pack is currently going through testing and certification.

We are very aware of the different issues you have told us you find most important. Therefore as soon as we’re done with the above there are several other points of your feedback which we’ll continue to investigate, without currently being able to say with certainty whether or not we will be able to include them. These include, but are not limited to:
  • Clan support/private rooms/team chat
  • Auto balancing on servers
  • Continued support against stats exploits
  • VOIP issue on PS3 (working with Sony on this)
  • Squads might be split up when joining a server as a squad. This is due to team balancing in the games that are being joined, and usually resolves itself in round 2.

Maybe it's because you just have a really bad Internet connection. People don't seem to understand that typical servers are usually not laggy at all, and that it's just their own bad connection.

Default the guns...

nice to know you guys from DICE care...
well I would like to have way better guns and selections.
ready?
- realistic clips or hard hitting bullets.
- more guns
- make the MG36K into a assulat version (G36) but keep it in support.
-better shotguns. I like the selections now but put some more in... hence the Nova shotgun from Italy.
- Keep the UZI but make the stock extended.
-Make MEC use Aribic military weapons such as Sig 552, MP5, and a Jericho.
- Take the AEK-971 out, it is sceintific weapon of Russia (but then again tbe AN-94 is to...) instead put the AK-107 in as the infentary.
-i liked how you put the M416 in! seems like you guys did some checking up on the guns history and why its made GOOD JOB! but can you put the M417 in as a sniper.
- XM5000 as a sniper also.
- Cheytech Intervention and SR-25 Kings armorment.
- XM8 SNIPER!
-PP-19-A2 "Vityaz"
- Love the game but what about the transport helo, like the Hind, BlackHawk, and one of your choice.
I know i can't change the game because i am just a normal person but if you can put some of the the things i would like that alot.
P.S: better looking soldiers (like the engineer and support.) and jeeps.

I would like for it to be a lot easier for tanks to just drive through buildings. It's annoying and even masochistic to try driving through a building because the tank is probably going to get stuck on a tiny little object. It's safer to just bailout of the tank than to try to get it unstuck.

Default The tank.

I agree. You can drive trucks through with ease but you can't drive tanks through, the tanks are hunks of metal and should be able to crash a house. Also people have been wanting a realistic tank exit, such as coming out on top of the tank.
I am just spit balling this, but what if we could use the Anti material rifle (M95 or what ever type of AM gun you will put in.) to destroy the HMG on top of the tank and/or shot the driver area.
It would be nice if you brought back the mobile artillery so when some body tags something we can aim and shoot it.

Default Frecking shotguns

I love the Riot NS2000 shotgun but you got to be kidding Dice! I pumped 5 shells from the SPAS 12G. which it stands for Sporting Propuse Auto Shotgun or Speacil Purpose Assualt Shotgun.
Nope its none of that in the game, please fix this and can you bring or if you must make some up shotguns that have there own special charaitics.

been playing this game for two days now, and my stats are NOT updating on the web site. I linked my PS3 account a LONG time ago on EA's site.

Shows linked, but no stats...

Not really interested in stats, or rankings...however....I AM very interested in when the "I Am Bad Company" achievement/award will be fixed for the xbox 360/ps3 users.

Is this a coder issue? Can we get a coder to resolve this?
Is it possible that we can start a sticky thread for players missing said achievement/award to sign in with their gamer tag, and have their issue looked into?

I have tried messaging Supernewby, but he hasn't been active in quite awhile, and I've messaged EA_Isledyr as well, but have YET to hear back from them either.

Since there are 2 forum pages for this game, and BadCompany.EA.com send players to this UK forum...can we consolidate, and get this issue resolved?

I have messaged, and entered forum entries, and haven't heard anything positive, nor helpful from anyone in charge. I KNOW that I am not the only one with this issue.
Just the other night, I was playing with my usual group, and while marching across the map, 2 players recieved their final awards as well. 1 recieved their final achievement, and the second did not.

PLEASE consider starting a sticky thread for this final achievement/award issue for the Xbox 360/ps3 issues.

Fantastic Game!! Just need help with this 1 problem, and it would be almost perfect. I say almost, because I'm looking forward to Bad Company 2. I'd just like to show that I've completed the first game to 100% before starting the next.

Thanks for your time, and any help would be appreciated.

I agree that it is entirely possible @gravy666, but in my case..when TF2, COD(any) work like clockwork and BFBC lags like a geriatric in molasses with perpetual whiplalalalalas their servers.

EA...buck up and get this fixed...I will not be buying BF2 until this is resolved... and you have taught me something which I thank you for... "buyer beware" right..well any new game that I drop $60 on will be fully researched via user forum before I commit... playing with lag is just very unprofessional on the part of EA.

Thanks for listening.

Do any of the DICE staff actually read these posts, or do they just hope that we will all go away if they don't make eye contact??
