@James, all the talk in the forums is/was about lag compensation and how it penalises players with good connections, but I don't think that's what's going on here. They say playing out-of-region gives players a massive advantage, it doesn't work that way for me. They say too many players out-of-region messes up the servers, but one of the worst games was yesterday and every single player was European.
As for switching ISP, I've been looking through the community forums of a few other ISPs and there's a similar FIFA/EA thread in all of them. Some players are finding it unplayable, others say it's great. There doesn't really seem to be a common link between all of us with problems.
One thing I can rule out with certainty is that I'm just being outplayed. I'm a good player, I've played with and against some of the best players (both casual players and the guys that are competitive and play for the top clans.) I can hold my own against anybody, so getting owned by guys with negative KDRs and appalling accuracy is a clear indication something is wrong... I have bullets coming at me before the enemy appears on screen, I can raise my sights at an enemy facing a completely different direction, but they turn and kill me before I can get a shot off.

I know exactly what you mean, and half the time they are reloading and they still manage to kill me.

I've got good pings, web browsing is instant, I can stream Netflix in super HD without any buffering... gaming = impossible.
*takes a deep breath*

Sorry for the continual problems guys. I know it's frustrating, especially when you see someone like rongtw on the same ISP with no issues! We've got a theory around what might be causing the peak time lifts on the ping graphs and that could possible be influencing gaming performance. We are hopefully doing a tweak next week which might improve it, not sure.
In the meantime, I'd like to put you guys onto a special service offer which would see all of your traffic going into Gold. (I.e. not putting gaming into Titanium, or P2P into Bronze) and se eif that has any impact on your performance.
Let me know if you are happy with that.
rongtw: Can I do the same to you as well so we get a decent comparison?

Quote from: Wo0x I play to relax, I see friends playing and I look forward to joining them, but once I get on and try to play I just lose my temper.
Albeit with a different game, I sympathise. All my gaming is doing lately is making me angry. Amongst the many peculiarities I am seeing, I had someone shoot me around a corner yesterday, when I was out of line of sight and another jump-kill me through a wall. Pissed me off no end. I also spent most of the day repeatedly trying to get into a match with one friend and we just couldn't connect for a full match. Mind, I think altogether I only got around five full matches.

Hi, Kelly, I can't imagine it'll make things worse so I'm happy for you to try it.
Just wondering what kind of tweak you guys have in mind for next week?
