FC 26 Latency Issues – Gameplay Feels Like Running in Mud

ThI’m writing this feedback after multiple sessions on FC 26, and unfortunately the experience has been consistently frustrating due to severe latency and responsiveness issues.

Despite having a stable internet connection and low ping, the gameplay feels heavy, delayed, and unresponsive, as if every player is running in mud. Simple actions like passing, turning, sprinting, or defending have a noticeable input delay, which completely breaks the flow of the game.

What’s most disappointing is that this isn’t just occasional lag spikes — it’s a persistent gameplay sluggishness that affects competitive balance. Matches are often decided not by skill or tactics, but by who adapts better to delayed inputs and server inconsistency.

FC is supposed to reward precision, timing, and football IQ. In its current state, FC 26 feels more like a test of patience than skill. For a franchise of this scale, server performance and netcode optimization should be a top priority, especially in online modes.

I genuinely hope this feedback is taken seriously, because the core game has potential — but latency like this makes it extremely hard to enjoy or recommend.e same expri
