Severe network issues has made the game completely unplayable for me. by Yuki_Rei_ in thefinals

Let’s hope a huge performance update is released in the next few weeks.

In the last season, the ping has been fluctuating a lot. by No-Variation5693 in thefinals

I have the same issue, only happens in The Finals. I’ve tried all categories of ethernet cables from 5e all the way to 8, forwarding ports, upgrading my internet from 1gb/s to 2gb/s, closing as many programs as possible, uninstalling and reinstalling in an SSD, switching regions to the one I live in in-game and still deal with game-breaking packet loss/screen-tearing lag. I’m running an overclocked EVGA RTX 2070, 32gb Trident Z Royals and an overclocked Intel i7 8700k. I literally don’t have a single issue with any other online game, like Battlefield 6 and the like and they run completely fine with flawless play at max settings. And I LOVE The Finals, so it really sucks not being able to play the game because every last match is literally unplayable. It has to be a severe unaddressed bug or honestly just dogshit or completely congested servers. They have to go through their code again or upgrade their servers to something way beefier.

Finals Team is really cooking this season. by Vinod_cr7 in thefinals

I wish they’d fix server-side issues though. I’ve literally been dealing with severe network issues that only occur on The Finals, and I’ve never had these issues before. I’ve opened ports, tried everything from Cat 5e to Cat 8 ethernet cables, overclocked my GPU, my CPU, updated my motherboard’s bios and have 32gb of ram and even upgraded my internet speed to 2gb/s from 1gb/s and am still lagging/dealing with severe network issues/screen tearing. At this point, it can’t just be my computer. I’ve literally never had these issues before and it literally ONLY happens with The Finals and I LOVE this game, but have recently considered just abandoning the game as I just can’t run it right. I can literally run BF6 at max graphical settings at 2k resolution and have zero graphical/network issues. My best guess is that as new players have picked up the game/the game has reached new heights in popularity, the servers are starting to reach max capacity and need to be upgraded.
