Let me explain... Battlefield BAD company 2... is a fun game yes... i bought it new and i rarely buy games new.. and they just burned the FUCK out of me!

I bought Battlefield, and there was a little bit of lag. No big deal, im cool with that.. Now months after release there is ALOT of lag, im rubber banding and telepoting all over the place, (Am i playing Dragonball z?) but im still playing as the game is fun and i can play through the lag.

Now yesterday, they released a new "patch", a fat ass 250mb patch for Xbox 360 and PS3... This solves the lag problems right? nope it makes it WORSE!!!!!!! Not only that but they made all the guns weaker, so im teleporting while trying to shoot someone with a BB gun. Honestly what the fuck is DICE doing? How do you screw up a game this bad? Its worse than RDR online, hell Gears 2 and even Killzone 2 has better onlne (thou not my cup of tea) at least it wasnt teleporting and rubberbanding.

Aren't patches supposed to FIX the lag and glitches, not make them worse? DICE must be trying to kill Bad Company 2 so that people will buy Medal of Honor..

Sounds like a fun game, I'll add it to my collection of laggy games... Lagging Lagfare 2 and Lago 3 (lol halo 3) 

Being in Australia I'm used to it. Though if you're used to great connection most of the time, I can understand how annoying it must be to play a game that isn't up to that standard. XD At least my bad connection is consistent. 

I have high standards/ bad luck, but this is happening to everyone. People on 360/PS3/PC all complain how laggy the game is and how the patch made it worse.

It really makes me pissed that reviewers give this game a 9/10 with the lag. It just shows that reviewers cant be trusted.

@Myak04

I would expect lag if i was in Australia, but in America, thats a damn shame. It just shows how incompetent DICE and EA are at making games.

Still getting lag? I haven't gotten any lag spikes after upgrading to ADSL2 . What kind of connection do you have?

I have ADSL connection, but that's only because my server, Optus TPG, won't allow ADSL 2 where I live T_T.

Meh, I just laugh when I come across lag in games... Such as popping in and out of teleporters in Halo 3 XD. 

Lol that sounds like fun, I just hope for your sake that they make good on the NBN. But I guess you always gotta look on the bright side, I mean I'm sure there are still some people on dialup somwhere.

That's weird, I have a slow connection (wireless - not wireless router, actual wireless - think of satellite internet) max is 1.5 Megs down and 800k up, and I have no problems with lag with any games I play, MW2, BFBC, etc

The only game I've noticed lag spikes with is HoN and that is only when my mom uses the VOIP connection to join a conference call for work or something

Its not mine or anyone elses connecton, its EA shitty servers.

It's the East Coast (USA) right now that has trouble. I'm lucky to know a UK player (KylieDog) so I can sneak into the UK ones. It's ironic that the foreign server is lag free for me >.<

It's also just sad, how such a absolutely great game got ruined in so many stupid ways. Many games have what I call "core" issues, stuff that can't be changed easily, or if changed, will change the game entirely.

Bad Company's 2 problems are:

1) Lag

2) Lack of player control (allowing to choose servers, kick people, customize rules, etc. Basiicly a KZ2 like system)

3) Extremely high damage (Magnum ammo)

4) Shitty MW2 players

The beta was the funnest time I had with this game. I believe it was because:

1) No lag

2) N/A

3) I don't remember magnum ammo. Damage was perfect.

4) The only players on were the ones who actually wanted to play the game (having to shell out a pre-order)

In short, CONSOLES SUCK BALLS. In short, GAMERS SUCK BALLS. It's not just EA's fault. It's OUR fault. It's our fucking obsession with K/D ratios. It's our fucking inability to cooperate and fucking communicate. Jesus fucking christ, I'm really losing faith in gaming, and if inFamous 2 turns out to be a dissapointment... it's over.

The only real problem with BC2 before was the lag, and they just add low weapon damage to the list.

The LAG is EA fault and DICE lowered the weapon damage because people who suck at the game complained that they kept being killed because  (A) gun is over powered and now all weapons suck. I play hardcore expecting to drop a guy in a few bullets not 5-6 bullets.

I see someone the forums saying that Helios are over powered because he was killed by the guy who is in the top 10 ranking for helios, no wonder why he killed you, HES IN THE FUCKING TOP 10!!! Stop complaing about everything being over powered and learn how to walk around and be careful, use common sense.
