Sudden Poor Connection and Input Delay EAFC 24

The first day of fifa my connection was amazing, I’ve run the EA network connectivity report and it said great on all games played for the first day, however the past 48 hours all of my games have had poor connection.

Gameplay is borderline unplayable, with significant input delay and general lag.I had a similar thing last year, the game was really good for the first few months then the connection suddenly changed to like I stated above suddenly overnight. I couldn’t solve it so eventually gave up playing ultimate team all together for the year.

Has anyone else got a similar issue? I don’t understand how the connection has become so bad overnight, with no changes to my wifi or any external downloading/uploading going on. It seems to only happen on EAFC/Fifa too.

  • Same exact thing has happened to me. First two days, the gameplay was normal,the last 2 days I’ve been playing ultimate team. Any online matches Are very laggy while my opponent seems to be fine. Also happened to me on fifa 23 and I gave up as well. I’ve tried everything in terms making sure I have enough space on my xbox, changing my NAT type to open, etc and nothing works. All other games work fine, just fifa 23 and EA FC 24 I have this problem

  • I have the same issue, my ping is 22 but lag inside game is INSANEEEE after this update

  • Gameplay is unplayable. Certain moments in the game I experience lag issues during Rivals. Especially when I´m attacking or my opponent is the one attacking.

    Searching for a solution, EA comes with ´help´. It is due to my poor Wifi or Wired Internet.

    But I have 400 games in my catalogue. A great deal of them are Online Multiplayer. None of them have poor connection (I have fast internet).

    It's not just 1 game lag. It's every game lag. And I start with 20 ms ping. 

    Please sort this out. It should be due to EA servers imo.

  • Going through the same issues even on pro clubs, ping of 250+ at a minimum. 

    First day was ok , playable atleast, but now, completely unplayable. Wasted funds on early access.

    Same here. I just re-installed. As bad as previous Fifa's were, this is the most inconsistent I've ever experienced. Game and mobile app freezes 5 times a day. Gameplay goes from bad to worse to good then great all in the same day, having to load settings over and over and over again. its a miserable experience. 

  • The same thing happened last year and seems to happen more often when they are about to release a new title. My network download speed is over 800/Mbps. Using a different device on my network, the download speed will be less than 2/mbps while FC24 is up and running, but the second I shut the game down, my speed instantly jumps back up to +800/Mbps. Yet according to them, it's my computer or my internet service provider's fault. I've attached the speed test results I ran from Google, one while playing FC24 and one when the game was shut down.
