Battlefield 1 – Red and Yellow Symbols and Their Meanings Guide

by Falagar / Articles, Battlefield Guides / 22 Oct 2016

Server Performance – The effectiveness of a server, including throughput, individual response time, and availability – if you have that symbol, that means the server you’re playing on is crapping itself, and everyone playing on the server should lag and see the same symbol.

Packet Loss – is the failure of one or more transmitted data (like your in-game location, your shots, your current ammunition count, the animation you’re doing right now) to arrive at their destination (the server) to be “distributed” to all the players – if you have that symbol check your internet connection because you will lag pretty badly.

High Latency – is an expression of how much time it takes for a packet of data to get from one designated point (your pc) to another (the server) – if you have that symbol, it means your internet connection is crapping itself depending on how high the ping is (usually anything above 100-150 is bad for battlefield)

Latency Variation – if your PC and the server have a too big ping difference, this symbol shows up, mostly coming along with the High Latency symbol.

Low FPS – something wrong with your game, can be fixed in most cases with updating to latest drivers on bf1 unless you have a bad pc

Refresh rate – the number of frames per second your monitor can display (60hz, etc.) – no clue what it means on the battlefield as I never saw it.
