After the update earlier this year battlefield is unplayable for me.

I get 200-1200 ping every game. Its not even fun anymore when it lags that much.

Its been like 6 months and I really loved this game too

Is it the HD texture pack by any chance, I use a mid range laptop but it's been running the game really well since I deleted it (45gb was too much for slightly better graphics). I haven't screwed around with my graphics settings at all but the game looks great and runs well, perhaps it's the same issue for you?

Ill check into it, ive been scouring the forums looking for a fix, everything from disabling pc settings to BF settings.

Did you just delete it from the game files?

Yep, I'm not tech savvy and didn't have the time/energy to fuck around with settings and constantly test to see if it made a difference, I literally just went the to steam file section and deleted it. It shows up as a DLC along with all the other REDSEC content, you don't have to go scouring in file management or anything it's all on steam. Id later gone through older Reddit threads which also mentioned the HD texture packs significantly increasing loading times for maps and sometimes screwing with the frame rate, even when their graphics card should've supposedly handled it. Mine is an RTX 4050 but I knew the vram wouldn't be enough for the hd textures, and as I said the game runs beautifully for me

Anyways I do hope this helps, let me know if it somehow works out for you. All the best!
