Wtf do they actually mean? Sometimes I have four orange boxes and the second one from the bottom has dashed lines, the other three are solid. Some players say they have them or sometimes white boxes.

These icons?
 
the client packet loss boxes - they come and go every so often
 
It's probably a DICE issue to some degree

if you have no other issues while streaming, downloading, or gaming....you can thank EA/DICE for that
 
remember that Battlefront uses the same broken Frostbite 3 engine which, to me, tells me the game was coded for a limited tick rate that will never reach that of CounterStrike: Source. It's been said that as you increase the # of players, the higher tickrate cannot be sustained. I feel it's an issue with the resource usage, over the years BF4 has existed, gamers from Intel at one point, then later AMD at another, have commented about memory leaks. One is fixed, another is broken....that's how I feel about it so when people say BF4 is optimized (some do claim that, although not many) I say it's hard to optimize a game that is still in a beta test known as the "Community Test Environment".

that is one reason, for me, after seeing the similar glitches in BF4 and Hardline, I lost hope for Frostbite 3 and any game that uses it. you don't put a broken engine in another model of a car and expect problems with the engine to be fixed all of a sudden...unless you have DICE-for-brains or you have EA business practices like quantity > quality.
 

haha good point but that game has similar BF4 glitches like spawning with no weapons, random people being invisible, and a black screen (happened a few times in BF4 in the end-round summary where it shows the ribbons & medals earned)

a guy in the comments section even typed he's spawned under the map which was a familiar BF4 & Hardline glitch
 
damn...I had no idea. I am sure as shit glad SQUAD isnt using frostbite enngine:D
