Issue with Ping limit after recent Firestorm patch

[himan343]

Hey guys, my usual ping in battlefield is around 110-140 and before this Firestorm patch i had no problems playing but suddenly im noticing that after this patch my game tells me that i need to lead my aim if my ping goes above 120 I dont understand why so previously the aim lead indicator icon was for 150+ ping players but now its appearing for 120+ ping players I'm unable to hit my targets because my ping drifts from 110-140 and it is almost impossible to keep it under 120 i have seen the patch notes there is nothing mentioned about this in them so anybody know any fix for this?

Hey @himan343

Are you playing on a wired or wireless connection?

Also, have you tried these connection steps?

It looks like the Team is aware of the Ping Issues people are experiencing: https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/wiki/known_issues

I dont know this 120 ping lag compensation is intended by dev or not, but it was 160 before the firestorm update. I mean when you join a server that has over 160 ping, then game shows your ping at right side of your screen and that mean you have to lead your target way too much. Now they change 160 to 120. You can try yourself at any server which has ping over 120. Example https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/b2n1b6/what_does_this_number_in_the_upper_right_corne...

See thats the problem they changed it without any information and players like me who have ping 120+ are now screwed....... hopefully they change it back it was better before

yeah, only option open to me is Singapore sever, Generally I get 145 at EU and 135 at Japan server, so those are out of my option now. And only 1 to 3 dedicated breakthrough( which run only breakthrough,not Grand ops or Bombastic Fantastic which consist of mixed game mode) server run on Singapore server at peak hour.
