High Frequency Network Update Setting -- SWITCH IT TO HIGH

[Emperor XIX]

So all of the 'netcode' improvements done by DICE don't do shit if you don't change this newly added setting in the gameplay tab to 'High'

Sure, it's fairly silly that it's a setting, and a non-default one at that, but that's how they've done it. If your setting is on 'none' then you are not only not experiencing the improved tick rate, but you are playing against players who ARE. This exacerbates not only issues of dying behind walls, but even dying right after leaving cover, since the enemy is receiving your information quicker than you're seeing what you're broadcasting (this is a severe simplification, but you get the gist).

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but I played with several of you guys last night who didn't know about this, so I thought I should make a separate thread to announce it.

I think you need to go into a game then it's options then gameplay.

At one point last night, I put half of a clip of an assault rifle into a guy that was mostly standing still from about 10m away without getting a single hit marker. Dude turns and kills me quick (on my screen). This prompted Emperor telling me about this. I had been having lots of shoot-first die-first moments also in that server. Unfortunately, we left that server after I changed this setting so it's hard for me to say if it helped.

i think they left that setting as an option because Dice recommends the high setting for only connections uploading at least 1mbps, if not, you may experience some weird latency issues.

I guess that's why they have the difference low, med, high so you can play with it.
