Why Ping is misbehaving?

Sat Nov 09, 2013 9:03 am

When I search for servers in server browser, I find some server with ping 180 to 220 (and above).
But when I join any server with 200 ping (Just example), I get 300+ ping in the game (when I see my ping during match by pressing TAB, my ping is 315 or so)
I have core i3 2nd gen processor and 4 gb ram but 8600gt card. thats why my fps is around 20. But I dont think it should hurt ping.

There is always a forced ping in there. When you join a server, your ping isn't going to be as much as the server shows like in other games. When I join a 40 ping server for example, I get 120-140 ping.

Does this mean that my ping will be always 100 more than what it should be??
Other players on that server have 200 and I have 300.. (Does this mean that their ping was forced from 100 to 200 and my from 200 to 300). Cant I fix this. Its too difficult to play at 300 ping.

Look for lower-pinged servers... or host yor own server, you wont have 100+ ping there..

In your post you mentioned that you moved some photos, if your using a client like Bittorrent to-do that it could be seeding and contributing to your loss of connectivity; if you did not use that program or one like it I would suggest you think about what programs you have installed between the date that you had 'good' ping to present.

Also don't always assume that the problem is at your end it is possible the server has changed its hardware/software or even altered there internet plan thus effecting you.

Furthermore, Ping is also effected by your hardware; you mentioned you had a good internet Connection & 6 gigabytes of RAM, however if your graphics card, CPU or other part of your machine is malfunctioning it could be theredicly causing your ping issues as well.

If you have a legal copy of BFBC2 you should Contact EA Support they may be able to assist you.

If not then... Wait for one of the Tech-support people to see this & make a suggestion.

If you are really suggesting him to contact EA support, you might as well tell him to go ask the rocks on the ground outside
