gameplay being affected by my opponent low ping/latency

hey everyone.

I'm in kingdom of Jordan 1500 km away from the server (Bahrain) - ping = 32 to 40 ms

sometimes I can tell that I'm facing < 10 ms opponent by how fast they pass run turn and preform skills, heavy movement of my players, reaction time, drift dribbling, input delay (mostly near opponent goal), wrong AI decision, weird finishing, players refuse to accelerate efficiently, and bad control of the ball. 

* Please do not switch this topic to my internet connection, there is nothing wrong with my connection everything is maximally optimized.

* Not skill issue I'm DIV 1

is there anything I can do to fix this thing (without moving out from my country) because I like the game this year specially the playstyle thing and I want to have some good experiment instead of what I'm facing. 

I think FC 24 and most FIFA games are the only games in the world where your winning chances depends on your location, I wish you take this into consideration next year.

some examples down below 

if you don't get the point of the last video my player was refusing to accelerate + drifting in a nonlinear direction.

  • Hi there @Newedg7 

    I am located in Manchester, United Kingdom.  I am able to get a good internet speed of around 10ms ping, sometimes it goes to 20-30ms and the difference in playing is noticeable. When I play co-op with a friend also in UK we can sometimes get pings 30-40+

    There are two things which I can recommend, one is to connect using the best internet service provider. There is a tool here which might help you.

    And the second is to use ethernet/lan cables that are at least CAT 7 or 8, don't use wifi. I think the cables quality can affect it a little bit.

    @SumFiiin if its connection thing then why it affects things that don't depends on connection, 1000 ms = 1 second so if you are playing on 10 ms = 10/1000 second = 0.01 second delay also me 32 ms = 32/1000 second = 0.032 second.
    this is not enough to delay my player 0.5 second from passing or shooting the ball
    even if it is enough why FIFA and FC 24 are the only games that can't be played with > 10 ms why all the games can be played on 50 ms or even higher except FC 24

    @SumFiiin why they don't group players according to their latency + location that would be fair at least
    in my country thousands of players plays FC 24 with same latency of me but I'm getting matched with player close to the server only

    It takes location into account when matchmaking. If you are getting locations farther away then the closest server isps don’t always take logical paths and often times take longer routes so save money. Ea did a few pitch notes explaining that you want more detail on it.

    @RadioShaqsyou don't get the main issue I'm ok with being on 32 - 40 ms I'm not ok with opponent good connection making my players forget how to play football

    @Newedg7 I totally get you. I'm also experiencing similar gameplay. If it's Rivals, I just quit. Lol I can't bother playing a game that doesn't feel right. Unfortunately, I don't play Champs, so I won't advise you to quit those. The best thing you can do is worry about what you can control and not what you can't. You're definitely a better player than me, so I can't ask you what your tactics and such are, but I've definitely noticed a difference in card performance whilst experimenting with formations, tactics, and instructions. Chemstyles as well.

    I hope you find what you're looking for! <3 GL
