Last month I tried playing the game five times but it was nothing but horrible lag. The last two days I tried playing a few games and it was the same nothing but lag. Is the game just broken or what?

Yeah some people are affected by it and some are not. When I bought the game the day it came out and for around the first month of its release there was no lag at all and it played smooth. Ever since though the game lags horribly about 80% of the time for me. Everyone on the BF43 forum just says its our connections but I know its not cause its the only game I ever experience any lag on.

yeah it lags pretty bad most of the times... I bought it around release date but hadn't had the chance to start playing it until a few days ago and yeah, sadly at least 70%-80% of the games I've been in have had severe lag :( sad as it's a really funny game and totally worth the MS points

Yep. I bought it a few nights ago, itching for something new to play for a while. Every single time I tried to play it, it was a complete lag fest and made it totally unplayable. I don't normally have this problem at all with mulitplayer games, so I know it's the game and not my connection. Pissed me off because basically it meant I flushed the Ms points down the toilet.

i've had nothing but lag.. its so horrendous 90% of the time, that i end up just leaving. But there are tiny moments of lag free, for maybe 30 seconds, and its fantastic. Interesting thing is, Battlefield bad company 2 demo deos the same thing. I've looked at everything local. Every other game other than battlefield games runs great. and smooth. I have a linksys 4 port router, wrt54g. But that shouldnt matter ive' turned both wireless machines off so they are not using any bandwidth at all.. and my hard wired 360 is still running great. I could be downloading things,a dn playing GTA4 online aiwth no lag. But sure enough, no bandwidth usage at all with both machines off, and battlefield games run like garbage. I frankly want my money back. ITs not a single player game, its ONLY multiplayer.
