Battlefield 3 Controller Lag Issues

I'm having some serious issues with both the multiplayer and the campaign at the moment. Almost a third of a second lag on the controller input!

I have the same problem. Bought a diff controller thinking it was that. Didn't fix shit. Dropped playstation's res down to 480p haven't played it since to see if it fixed it. Also have the game for xbox and the controls are impeccable. I have an accuracy double of my playstation's because all I do is snipe and it's impossible to do it well because of the lag on PS3. I can't see how others don't notice this issue.

@Macro934 I can't see how either, but it would appear they don't. Oh well, hopefully the next patch will be here soon!

@Ch4osSh4dow I use the same controller for BC2, and that plays perfectly. It's the game. Dice have admitted there's a problem with it, they're just taking far too long to fix it. I actually posted a thread on the BF3 forum a few weeks back asking for videos showing "No Controller Lag". There were quite a few videos posted, and EVERY ONE of the "No Lag" videos showed really bad controller lag!! It seems some people just can't tell when their controls are lagging.

@SeanDorling my tv is an lg. which did have terrible lag in all games when I first used it. I contacted LG and they sent out some updated firmware. But there is another fix if you're using hdmi. Go to the home page, then the input page. The blue button then gets you to the "Input label" screen. Name that hdmi "PC". This removes the lag from the TV. But I tried BF3 with several TV's. That has it no matter what.

@demonear1 cheers bud, really getting annoyed that they haven't fixed this yet. And Re: double posting, you can't delete anything with the shite iPhone app, and I haven't turned on my PC for weeks :oD

[MrBfjohn]

stupid iPhone app. Double posted!

@Macro934 I bought this for PS3 and was really looking forward to it, the input lag was total crap, traded it in.

My brother in law is having the same problem. He got one of the new kinnect xbox and plays mw3. It horrible tried hardline controller, changing settings and nothing works. It also dose it playing just regular games as well.

I'm living in the UK at the moment and have found that the lag on this game is horrendous,

between 5pm and 1am i just cannot play. My soldier hops jaggedly forward instead of

running, get him to go prone and he jumps up, reload a weapon and he doesn't sticking

ammo in it and i mean doesn't stop. WTF is going on with it, i cant even get a game on quick

match, between those hours i have to search the servers for a non UK server or it wont play.

Rapidly gatting pissed of with it!!!!

@MrBfjohn Yea wow so bad, a huge game release and they do it so bad after the first update. They will lose a lot of fans during the process of waiting for a next update, because a lot of people will put the game a side because u can't play it normally anyway. I hope they'll fix it soon then. So I can get further with my campaign aswell,.... They did bad on the headsets too in the beginning, they were laggy alott. Ahhh well all we can do is wait for the update...

I have the exact same problem, its makes aiming so fucking hard, and this is after the 1.02 patch!

[Ch4osSh4dow]

And about the problem with your campaign im having the same problem, I seem to get stuk at a certain part of a mission after the last update. It's kind off weird because the singleplayer doesn't need to connect to ea online, it gets a disconnect anyways and throws me out. I might try restarting the campaign might solve the problem. Or else they should update badly...

[Ch4osSh4dow]

Dear Mr Bfjohn i've heard of similair problems but it might be the controller aswell, have u tried using a diffrent controller already ??? Because it might be the controller is worn out of you playing battlefield :P im just sayin' it might be the problem your looking for.
