<p>DICE made a <a href="http://blogs.battlefield.com/2014/04/battlefield-4-high-performance-server-solution/?utm_campaign=bf-social-us-socom-tw-social-socom-tw-km-server-update-correct&;utm_source=twitter&;utm_medium=social&;sourceid=bf-social-us-socom-tw-social-socom-tw-km-server-update-correct&;cid=20956">statement</a> today regarding the &#8220;rubber-banding&#8221; issues that players have been experiencing since the release of the Naval Strike DLC. In their effort to solve these issues, DICE will be deploying new higher-performance servers.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We have invested in new hardware to resolve this issue and deployed new higher-performance servers this week. In preparation, we conducted a significant amount of testing before installing the new servers to ensure they would correct the issue. We are already seeing performance improvement with 64-player matches and expect this to continue.&#8221; &#8211; <em>Karl Magnus Troedsson, DICE VP &; GM</em></p></blockquote>
<p>There is no getting around the fact that Battlefield 4 has been plagued by issues since its release. EA recently defended Battlefield 4&#8217;s rough <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/articles/ea-defends-rocky-battlefield-4-launch/1100-6417666/">launch.</a></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think there was a lot of noise about the game, but some of that is a function of your surface area. The more customers you have, the more noise becomes available,&#8221; &#8211; EA Chief Creative, Rich Hilleman</p></blockquote>
<p>Time will tell if this has any lasting effect on the Battlefield brand or if it&#8217;s a passing issue.</p>
