Slow gameplay

I had good gameplay for a couple of days ago but suddenly my players was heavy and the gameplay was sluggish ?

I wrote before without any answear why the game is unplable now, is this common for Ea ? Or is it a maintrance or somthing, the game shouldent be like this i dont get it.

My platform is ps5 and my connection is 1000/1000 stable earthnet fibre wire.

Every opponents i meet haves a flawless gameplay and AI who press me all the time, they press superhigh and they are faster and stronger, always makes the right dicisions and my players plays like they are stuck under water, it been like this for days now, what can i do about it ?

I dont have any issues with any other game and my internet connection is perfect, tried Fortnite and Cod just to see if there was any problems and i got perfect connection and a usually stable ping at 5, when i did internet test on Ea "hompage" i got 99.9 and when i do a regualery internet test i got 970 Mbit down and 980 Mbit up and it was stable.

It really makes no sense at all, please help ? 🤷🤷🧏🧏

    @IANthepharoah Yes mate but thats how they are selling the game, puts streamers, youtubers, " esportes " and big moneyspenders on fast servers meanwhile the rest of us is placed in overfilled servers, filled with delays and most often to old servers that is placed to far from us, it is a unplayble " game ".

    Honestly i dont care anymore, the game is more or less dead and i dont play it anymore, it was a loooong time ago i did that, but i see on diffrent forums how people still tryng to play this game, for me myself never an another Ea product again, iam totally done with these kind of companys.

    @IANthepharoah iam been posting my gameplay since i preorded the game and now we are in the end of this game and still nothing have been done at all, iam got a heavy delay and my ping dont match my connection and the most funny part of whole this is that everybody i know played this game from beginning dropped off the first 2 - 3 month, i was a newbie on Ea games but iam playing alot of others online games and i never seen somthing like this in a online game before, this should be a competitive online game where you get match against players with the same connection and placed on the same server as you, this game is bothing like that.

    My connection is 1000/1000 mbit, in other games iam at at stable connection between 10 - 15 ping in Ea iam between 24 - 100 and that with a cable connection, so ok i got a really bad ping and connection to their server, i can live with that but then my matchmaking should be against players with the same kind of connection otherwise this "game" would be totally unfair right, well after every game i played i asked my opponents what kind of ping and connection they have and the answear was stunning for me, iam playing against players that got between 5 - 10 - 15 in ping and this is when Ea lost me as a costumer, so this is not a skilled based online competitive game it is a pure server and connection game, ofcourse iam losing every game i play if iam getting matched against players that got much lower ping and are placed on duffrent servers than me.

    So i took contact with their "costume service" and they told me that its my own fault ha ha then they told me to go to this forum and i would get help here, when iam finally come here i post 20 + videos with my ping, connection and overlay and a volenteer contact me and said theres nothing to do...

    I know Ea loves to suspend their players and put a ban on players who is critical against their game, instead for answear questions u most likely would get a ban instead, it is what it is iam been out since christmas and i dont know a single one who plays an Ea game anymore.

    Streamers, youtubers etc etc is not in the same servers that you are in, and in a online game servers are the absolute most importend, if you not a streamer, youtuber u gameplay is slow and sluggish, the players feels like they running under water and youre AI is totally trash and that is the reality for mostly all of us and thats why people are leaving this game and company even if its free to get, the most importend in a online game is that players getting matched against same ping and same connection otherwise its not a online competitive skilled game, its just another fraud in a world filled with lies and frauds, sad but true.

    The other persons connection won’t matter since it’s on servers. This is how they work below. Ea just said gameplay hasn’t changed and doesn’t look to be a server problem in a thread a few posts down. They said they will go over connection if you are still experiencing problem. Maybe you are having packet loss or something if it’s not a server issue. 

    Here is the server explanation on the help page. 

    EAS FC uses game data centers so that someone else’s connection doesn’t impact your own gameplay experience. The game data center handles the distribution of gameplay information to all players.

    The center collects inputs from your game at a set interval of time, then sends this information back to everyone else in a match. This happens at the same time for all players and is determined by their individual connections.

    For example, if one player is streaming 4K movies and trying to play on a weak Wi-Fi signal, their activities shouldn’t impact anyone else in that match. The game data center still sends the information at the same interval.

    A game data center acts as the host of the match in multiplayer matches.

    @RadioShaqs What in the world are you talking about ?

    Truth is i got a ping between 24 - 100 ping on a fibre connection at 1000/1000 Mbit and my opponents got between 5 - 10 or 15 in ping, let us be honest mr volenteer the diffrent between dont match up and thats explains why ever opponents are faster, stronger, Ai is flawless and gameplay is also flawless meanwhile mostly of us play the game like the players runs under water, i dont really get why this should be anything to hide, iam working proffesinall with it i defenetly know hos an a online game works.

    In this case we not only meet people with much lower ping than us we get matched against people on diffrent servers wich makes this game totally unplayble, its impossible to say that this haves anything at all with skills, it is an online game everything and then i meen everything is about servers and ping, first when you put players on the same servers with the same kind of ping it is about skills, this game is no rocketscients it is a online football game, there is no magic settings to move 100 % faster with perfect gameplay, its all about the serverconnection, what kind of server you being connected to and what kind of ping you got nothingelse actually.

    Man this is why so many stopped to buy Ea games, its just lies on lies and instead for selleing garbage online cards fix the servers and the matchmakingsystem it does not work at all and iam far away from alone.

    @xXEliteWPlayerXx yep Ea servers are pure trash and it makes their games really really bad.

    Its easy to test, do that on diffrent time on a day and see for youself, its working kind of at early morning, it does not working at daytime then you have a really good hour at night but soon after the game dont works again.

    Its to bad and cheap servers that is overfilled with players and thats why the game never behave same, so back to a skilledbased game nope far from it, it is just a big mess and what is most intresting is how this volenteers keep defending a totally useless product instead for put some pressure on Ea to make a game that works for everybody, its 2024 this should not be a problem at all just look at other companys ha ha Ea maybe can borrow personal and servers from them, its impossible to go from perfect serverconnection and 10 - 15 in ping to a Ea game there servers is almost collapsing and you got a ping between 24 - 100 ha ha ha come oooooon iam to good at my work to be fooled like this ha ha ha

    One big laggy piece of .......

    How can a game remember previously pressed buttons for so long? This is sick.

    You want to enter the team settings during the match - the resume game starts. By corners, you want to skip the custcene - the player passes on the ground.

    Finally -  when you go out manually with the goalkeeper  - the goalkeeper catches and then drops the ball at  feet.

    Improvisation to the max -  not even a  10 % of professional job in creating this game.

    I hope 2K will pack your bags and force you to treat your customers normally.
    You force us to suffer and get angry because someone there in EA wants to save money on opening additional servers or increasing bandwidth.

    @LukeNuke3000D Iam totally at youre side mate its an big mess, my experience of some companys is that the product is not as importend as the profit, even if it meens a short temporery profit and alot of new costumers who aint coming back, iam one of them, iam not the regualery Ea player but iam a huge football supporter and follower.

    I preorded this game even if almost everyone i know warned me about it, its my own fault in the end and iam not blaming no oneelse by myself for that, i just wanted a fun competitive game over the winter to relax with, test diffrent tactics and formations, play some games and try to be better but this game is not like any other online game i played and iam playing alot of them, first of all a game should not behave diffrent every time you play it, the menus should not freeze, the gameplay should not feel like my team is moving in slowmotion, this game is nothingelse but a big dissapointment.

    I was in contact with their costume service and all they did was blame me ha ha imagine that you have a problem with a product and the company blame you instead for helping you, thats crazy, anyway they also told me to come to this forum and these guys would be able to help me, so i did.

    I wrote here and they asked me to send videos with my ping and overlay and also my connection, so i did that and no one answear me for months, i actually and honestly thought they would help me, but after a couple of month they said that i need to ask my friends to do the same, i dont know anyone who play this game so they could not help me after all ha ha the most strange help forum i ever been in to be honest.

    Iam been working with it and programming myself for many years now and this game is not a finnish product to start with, their servers is way to bad and overfilled and is heavy delayed, i did a test to play on diffrent times during 24 h and at the early morning it was kind of ok, during the day it was unplayble and in the middle of the night i actually can play it for about an hour then it crashes and is pretty much unplayble again, and that is a clear sign that their servers are really bad and overfilled ha ha imagine that in 2024, as i said before iam playing alot of online games and i never had any issues but Ea is somthing totally diffrent.

    Iam not playing the game anymore iam done with these kind of companys, yeah i got fooled once but that would never happend again, next time i will listen to the people around me but hey at least i tried it out and as i see it its not an " online " game it is an ps5 football casino and not even near a skilled based competitive online game ha ha riddicoules.

    This post matches up to exactly what I've been saying all game . Never feels the same , and my team playing completely different and like garbage . Not able to pass two foot in front of them , slow and sluggish , literally impossible to tackle , delay or not regsitering when i hit buttons , then the rng or randomness that always feels against me . When I play a match and see my ping believe it or not is been higher with one bar of connection missing since a few days after  I've hardwired which is unbelievable. The disconnects are still lower but common  and the losing control of my players less frequent but game play is all over the place. Can someone from ea honestly tell me if I buy fc25 that I'll be able to play at least a stable game. I feel like I was robbed when I bought this game. Its had very small glimpses of good gameplay and for the most part of the whole thing its been all over the place . Is it a server problem ? Is it too high a volume of players to cope ? Why has so many people complained about the exact same issues regardless of where they live , their isp , their hardware ect everyone's complaining about the same thing and it's gotten worse way worse this past month and a bit . Surly ea can't just think that the problem lies with everyone's Internet provider because players are goina go play fifa2k and save themselves the hassle and the money dealing with fc25
