Let me just say that I'm by no means a great player, and I have a more than qualified PC that can run this game, but what I've been experiencing since early access is terrible.Every match I play, my passes don't go to the desired player whether it be direction on power on the pass. Now I'm getting god awful input delay, when I have a connection of 1000mbs.Every opponent I've faced has players with little to no speed going past my players without really dribbling and when I go to do the same, their players with nearly 50 pace can outrun my Doku.The in-game cinematics cause the game to lag on set pieces and it ignores the power I put on the ball. When taking penalties, I'm holding the shoot button and let go when the circle is just under the ball, but the game doesn't register it until nearly 2 seconds later and it goes into the crowd.I'm baffled that this game even made release. I played Cyberpunk 2077 when it released and it performed better that whatever this heap of trash is. The company is just pushing out the same garbage every year and they know we're suckers and will buy it.The hurtful part is, they'll never learn from these things to provide a better service to their customers. I don't really enjoy eFootball, but they at least provide a better functional gameplay than FC24 and every predecessor for the last couple years.

Yep, once again a truly dreadful game.It's basically a copy and paste from 23, with some sliders changed.But the real issue is once again servers/netcode for online matchups.If you are on the wrong end (mostly if you have superior internet and have to be throttled down to match your opponent), then sludge.Players turn like tanks, passes pee roll in the wrong direction, fast players get outrun by slow players, no chance of reacting before your opponent, missing animations.Joke game, wish I hadn't got conned into buying again.More fool me.

@TrevorTheJ for me, after every set piece like penalty, freekick, corners etc. game starts to lag and it still contiunes after the set piece for like 10 seconds. Averall there is a constant buffering and lags just like you. How can it be fixed???

It can't.It's an EA thing.People with the best internet set up money can buy still struggle against kids using 10mbps wireless.Go figure.They don't care.We had it great for a few days in Fifa 19, but too many little Timmies complained and so they reverted it, as they were worried about losing out on FP sales.

Wish I knew, seems like it doesn't affect every player. It's literally so bad that the time it takes for my players to turn or run into any direction is like trying to move in quicksand. All this for $90. It's a literal scam at this point.

I'm on the same boat. I have been lucky enough to pack Al-Owairan and I was quite excited to use him, but damn, he moves like a truck, can't perform skill moves because of the input delay, and got outpaced by Locatelli and Guimares very regularly.In the menu, the input delay is around 1.5 secs, and the game crashes on me (blue screen) about twice a day.I'm just going to keep playing, and put a smile in my face.

The game is unplayable/worst one yet

Best game in many years for me, I´m normally a div 5-6 player so not very good and I have noticed nothing of your issues. Seems more player related issue than game issue.

The amount of input delay in this game is crazy. Ea really just not bothered to release this unfinished game.

I experienced the same things since the patch yesterday... I already cancelled my Play Pro Subscription.

Such a shocking game online.
I just play squad battles for a bit of fun now.
At least the players actually play like they are supposed to and you can score some fun goals.
Bit of a joke for the money that you can't really play online

There is no longer advance placement, so we are playing top players for the first week, and for the first few weeks of the full release.
just should be changed back.

this version is very good, and much improved. My only issue is that pace is still more important than skills or card rating.
