Ever since battlefield 1943 was released, Bad Company has been gettin terrible lag andSmoothgames are extremely hard to come by. 3/4s of the games I join are very laggy. Lag is very annoying, and even walking through doors doesnt work half the time! Well Ive hear that EA has the reputation of forgetting their older games servers and I really hope this is not true. Im a rank 23 and the road to 25 can be made even longer with the server issues. I blame Battlefield 1943.

To be honest I haven't had any problem with lag in this game recently, maybe I'm just lucky. Love the "Can't Stop the Painkiller" in your sig, one of my favorite Priest songs.

I have finally got the lag, the game is unplayable, and I HATE it. I can't play it you shoot a guy with 3 clips, and he dosen't die; and the same goes for him to. To bad about the server it's multiplayer was fantastic.

Has 1943 killed off Bad Company?

Well, the problem is on your end then, as my friends and I play it perfectly. And this is including Toronto, Calgary, New York, Chicago, and LA.

This happened yesterday to me as well. A friend and I were trying to join a match together and it wouldn't connect.

I live in Ohio and I am having the same lag issues. Sucks cause I just recently got into the multiplayer and I love it but finding games with good connections can be difficult at times.

(PS3) Okay so I am in Oregon, and I have close to the same issue. I can't even join! I picked up Bad Company like a 2 weeks ago, and my room mate grabbed a copy as well, so the first week was fine. We've played other version on pc before. Big Fans of the console release of BF43, yet after a few days Bad Company became a blast (with no issues noticed other then a small twitch of lag here and there)...then Bam! Now neither of us can join with any certainty, and when we can it's random and not often together or at the same time even. Yet I am almost certain that it is not any of the many suggested connection problems as we play many other games online at the same time with NO DIFFICULTY what so ever. GTA IV, 16 players: No Problem; BF43, 24 players: No Problem; Fat Princess (which has it's own server issues) 24-32 (whatever it is) players: No Problem; Call of Duties, All versions: No Problem. It's a brand new Comcast Uber high Speed Connection with new router and all that crap...so I am pretty sure it's not a connection issue. So heres the deal....BFBC online is a freakin blast! What will it take to get it strong again? Everytime I try to join 95% of the time it tells me i lost connection with host and server and to check it even though i am obviously still logged on to PSN(the game default message), then randomly and rarely it joins and there tends to be no problems as long as i stay with the game. Is there an EA number we can start flooding with calls? Post some YouTube vids or something to create an online push for EA to get it'ssh*t together? I mean it the future and all, lets use our public push to freakin play some damn games! Are there any answers for this serverproblem?

[QUOTE="Hikokikomori"]I'm in Portland, Oregon. I have had BFBC for a long time now, been level 25 forever, and it felt good getting there. But, I have to agree with the OP that after BF1943 was released, it's like they dropped all support for BC and I can NEVER get a ranked game to play proper because of lag. Once in a while, I can get an unranked game to play proper, but the frustration of trying this evening prompted me to look for other people with the same issue, and do some wining. EA, I hate your guts. I honestly don't think I will purchase BC2, because as soon as they get a newer online game out, they will, again, drop all support for theprevious title. How can you a$$holes treat us like this after you make so much money off us? If I ever meet the person in charge at EA, I am going to stink-palm him. Fuk you EA

Hit him with the banhammer!

I had some lag a while ago after 1943 came out, I haven't played it since. But that's mainly because I'm on the Modern Warfare Campaign.
