Connection Issues

Post by Hutch1603 »

Evening Gents,

I am finding it increasingly difficult and frustrating trying to play BFV. Most games I appear to have the low FPS icon all game, mainly yellow and orange in colour, although in the last few days there has been more red boxes.

Additionally, I am suffering from packet loss and both high and low latency issues. I have as a matter of course turned my vsync off, sett my graphics to low, turned off all the effects, made sure there are no other programs running other than discord and BFV.

None of this has made any difference. To be honest, whether my graphics are set to high or low there is no difference in quality, which makes me wonder if the options in BFV are working.

Does anyone have any other suggestions I might try before I blow the PC up and go back to playing World of Warcraft.

Are you using DX12?

For me personally I have had no issues, I don't even know if I'm using dx12 or not, the only thing I do know is that I have had to update my graphics drivers twice since bf v came out so have you checked your drivers?

Before I could play BFV I had to update my graphics driver to the latest one as it would not run, so I have the latest driver as of 2 weeks ago. As Bill has said my DX12 is off.

I use the same type of graphics card that Bill uses "GTX1050TI - 4GB". It's really frustrating as I want to like the game, but hate it as I can't play it properly.

DX12 sucks if you do turn it on. Is ambient occlusion on?
