BattlEye Ping too high

[seife 3]

Hi there,

since I few days I have issues with BattlEye every almost every time I encounter zeds. If I get near to them "You were kicked from the game. (BattlEye:Ping too high)"

My connection is really slow (50kb/s down; 8kb/s up) but it works fine in any other game, DayZ itself doesnt show any lags either.

Is there any way to fix this?

US 1234 has a ping limit of 2000 so you could give that a go. I play on that server at least 2 times a day

Wow o.O. Sorry, that's extremely low from a standard I'm at but the only way I could see a way around this is to upgrade your connection, even the slightest bit. In terms of how much bandwidth you get (varies from provider to provider) you'll only actually get between 50%-80% of the actual amount you paid for. If you are located in Germany, I have no clue the service plans that are available or how much money you have to spend (in terms of upgrading), but even upgrading to a 1mb/s should be enough to alleviate this. Granted, you won't exactly be able to join every single server you see due to how some pings would be extremely high, but if you only play on local servers you should be fine. If you want to join servers that are in the US, however, you will probably have to upgrade to an even higher mb/s in order to do so without getting kicked for ping. Can try to join servers with a high-ping limit so you won't get kicked when it spikes (for when you hit zombies).

TLTR: Best off upgrading your connection speed, nothing you can really do on computer end to fix.

@Baralai

Can't do anything about my connection. I'm living in a VERY little village (about 150 people :P)... Game itself doesnt show any lags, so I'm asking myself why BattlEye kicks me for high ping.

@Nick

Worth a try. :)
