I dont know why this is happening but any time i go in Metal Gear or some other zones but after about 50 seconds that ive been in it specs me and comes up You have been put in spectator mode due to high packet loss

your computer and the server communicate by sending packets to each other. If too many of these packets are lost, it makes you appear laggy to everyone else (and vice versa), so servers don't let these players play.

Not much you can do about it. If you are using other programs that use the internet like bittorrent you should close those. If you're using a shared internet connection make sure other people aren't using it. Finally you may have to buy a better internet package.

you should use "TRACE" and see where your lag is coming from.
