Re: Low Ping... High Lag

I've tryed uninstalling BF2 and re-installing the FULL 1.3 patch about 3 times now, even tryed it with older patches. Really strange

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

im not getting the lagg you guys are describing, i mean, i still get lagg when i join the game and some lagg spikes here and there but its not as bad as you guys are saying. I did what bald eagle said a couple posts bad with the reinstalling and it helped me with some of my lagg issues. All i know is that ea ****ed this patch up.

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

I've sorted the lag I had out. All I did was remove 0.75gb of my ram, because they were all different types to my 1gb stick.

I tried this today, and it seems to have helped on some servers. Before I would get lag on every server. Now I can play Legion of Doom's Karkand server without problems. Others are hosed still though.

BTW, I have two sticks of 1GB ram, and upgrading from 1GB to 2GB didn't help.

For those still having trouble one last thing I can suggest is to download it again. Maybe something got screwed up when you last downloaded it. I've had this happen before on something else.

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

That's what EA told me to do. I did it, and no major change. (Besides, the installer should self check, no?)

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

Yeah it should. Sorry you are still having probs. I forgot how much fun it was to play. But I also forgot how long the loading times are. I swear it costs me 15 minutes just to get up and going.

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

bump, Nothing seems to have worked, I did turn anti antialising off altogether and that alleviatated it just slightly in barren areas, but in urban areas or when there's a firefight happening on the screen it gets rediculously choppy, very annoying considering i've played the game since it came out without any probs till now.

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

I had this problem too, but fixed it by changing the settings of the ATI Catalyst Control Centre. I had low ping and massive lag which killed me most of the time, but everything is running smoothly now.

I have noticed though that since patching the game on another machine running BF2 it just crashes back to desktop and is unplayable even with a re-install.

You gotta love this game.

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

Hi everyone,

I am a french player and I have the same issue. Here is my config :
ATI Radeon 9800 PRO
AMD 64 3200+ (2.21 Ghz)
1 Go RAM

I first applied the incremental 1.22 -> 1.3 patch and it was unplayable. Each time I come across other vehicles or players, it becomes extremely laggy and difficult to play, impossible to aim or fire. The whole is much more laggy and really not fluid. Up until 1.22 it worked fine in 1024x768 and medium details.
Now, even in 1024x768 and low details for every option, it is really difficult (even impossible sometimes) to play, althoug I have the same ping than before (20-40).
It also happens in single player (less laggy but still) when there are enemies, vehicles and troops in front of me.

I tried to apply the full 1.3 patch but it didn't change anything. Maybe I'll try to completely uninstall BF2, but how can I be sure that I'll be able to recover my profile, stats and armored fury / Special forces add-on ?

I also downloaded and installed the last ATI catalyst and driver, but it didn't helped...

Re: Low Ping... High Lag

how much free % of space do you have on the drives with the game and your paging file?
And how often do you guys defrag?

Re: Low Ping... High Lag
