What is it with Wifi and this game?
-
I just don't get it. I don't disconnect from any other game due to wifi issues. This is the only game it happens with. It boots you and tells you the online features has been disabled. You close the app and restart. The game freezes at the Sony Entertainment logo, forcing you to close the app again and restart the entire console. Every other game! All because I'm using wifi? Anyone else have this issue with wifi?
And just so the record is clear, UPS can eat a buffet of d***s for delaying my ethernet cord delivery.

I hope for your sake it is just your wifi. And that cord helps. Because the game freezing at the logo usually isn't an internet problem.

I’ll give you my expert IT advice. Is the power cord and network cable connected and fully seated into the router. Did you try turning it off and on. If all answers are yes please complete a 5 minute survey to tell us how we can improve our service.

I second this, sound like possibly a hard drive issue

It only freezes after I get booted and it's only happened since the cord died on me. Other than that the game plays fine.

Concerning the Ethernet cord: Did you test the cord out in another device to make sure it went bad?
Just asking because I had a PS4 where the Ethernet port went bad.

Buffet of ducks, yum.
I had a similar issue last year, called my provider and they resolved it, I had an outdated filter on my line, no idea what it does or how it works because I'm dumb. But they came out, replaced it free of charge and everything worked normally.

Well.. number one thing here... u should not be playing this game online via wifi anyways

What is number two? Usually when you predicate a statement with 1 or first, you are announcing a series of ideas or facts.
Number 2: you shouldn’t go in the bathroom for at least 10 minutes after me.

That means, most likely, that you're still using DSL internet over your phone line. The filter splits the lan line phone from the DSL internet signal, they're a PITA.
I worked tech support for Pac Bell in college, 99.9% of the issues with connectivity came from filters.

And just like that I became (slightly) less dumb.

What did you think of bf2042 beta? I got bored quick. It didn't make me run to pre-order.

Yeah the party system was broken so I had to solo the whole time. Only so many times you can play in the same map before you get bored lol.
But it was fun, I really enjoyed the gunplay and how that aspect of the game felt, everything else needs to be adjusted though. We need a classic vehicle control system, the ground was basically instant death for air vehicles even if you lightly tapped it. Some of the vehicle weapons need a buff too I noticed.
Operators are an awful idea and the game needs to go back to the 4 class system of old Battlefield, and revive needs to go back to being only available to one operator. I dont like being able to revive via an animation but prefer the classic defibrillators.
IIRC that particular build of the game is months old at this point so I'm not too worried about it. I pre ordered just to play the beta, but I think ill leave my pre order alone since I just got the base edition. Overall I enjoyed it, but there is fixen to be had.
