Game play

I am just saying if you want to. My gameplay works fine so I really don’t care either way. If nothing else the online input overlay is just for your knowledge. Most just assume they have delay one side de sync all that you describe. Now while a few do actually have 4 second delay most find out they don’t. 

I mean did you know that would check in game for you?  I just suggest it to help you rather you report it to ea or not that’s up to you. You can see everyone in there says the same thing you do if not exactly in that thread in others. 

I try to get everyone that wants to report it to. I can’t help that only a few do and the ones that do show it’s not on eas end. 

I think extra long has the same issue and he is on wifi and has high packet loss. I could be wrong but think he has posted it before. If not he should as he is already in that thread.

Here is ea explaining it better than me. 

Two controller graphics are displayed on the top-right corner of your screen during online matches played on FIFA Game Data Centers.

• The first controller graphic is Local Input and mirrors the actions you perform on your physical controller.
• The second controller graphic is Online Response, which shows the same inputs but after they've been processed by a FIFA Game Data Center and your network. This Input Overlay option is only available for matches played on FIFA Game Data Centers.

Why does EA SPORTS FC™ use game data centers?

EAS FC uses game data centers so that someone else’s connection doesn’t impact your own gameplay. 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, and 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 back at the same time.

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