I have a 3.0 GHz PC w/ ATI Radeon X850 XT PE. It has been running fine for months. I came home yesterday to play a bit and had a tremendously long wait to connect to EA Account server. Once in I logged in to the same server I always play and the video was choppy. My ping was like 45, but I do not know the FPS (do not know how to check).
All I know is that whatever server I connect to I get slightly choppy video. Really hurts game play. This all happened BEFORE I installed the 1.3 patch.
I hoped all that stuff was a function of everyone switching over to the new patch. I installed the patch this morning and still got the same thing. I then went in to try reducing video settings. Same thing.
This happened once before and just cleared up on it's own in a couple days.
Anyone know the source or how to fix it?? Is it a function of everyone tying up the EA servers downloading the patch? I had a download speed of about 12 Mb/s and could not do any better.
