Thanks for the reports. Based on what’s been shared so far, several of you do seem to be describing a similar symptom: slow or heavy in-match gameplay, including delayed inputs, slow turning, passing, dribbling, and tackling.
That said, we still can’t confirm this is the same issue for everyone. Similar symptoms can come from different causes, so we need a few specifics to properly narrow this down.
If you’re affected, please reply with:
- Platform
- Game mode(s) affected
- Whether this is only in matches or also in menus/loading
- When it started
- Usual in-game ping
- Wired or wireless connection
- Region/country
- Whether it happens every match or only at certain times
If possible, please also share a short clip showing the delayed or heavy gameplay with controller input.
I know some of you have already tried standard troubleshooting, but those steps can still help with triage. The reason is simple: the same “slow gameplay” feeling can come from different sources, and those checks help show whether this is a broader gameplay issue or something affecting certain setups, modes, or match conditions.
The more specific the reports are, the easier it is to raise this clearly and accurately.
Just play the game during peak hours on a friend’s house and you will understand. This affects everybody. Go watch some streamers talk about it.
Most of the community suffers with this. You just have to replicate the problem on different environment to understand and create a solution. It is not rocket science.

Whether it happens every match or only at certain times - nearly every match. There is literally no line in there. Every now and then the game is responsive and I can do what I intend, but most of the time it feels like it is living it's own life. Button responsiveness is zero and players/team don't execute tasks.
I had a good period between Saturday morning and yesterday (Tuesday)afternoon. Played the Cup in Seasons, reached the final like a dozen times and won practically every game. Even games with ping over 100 were responsive. Since yesterday evening, nothing works anymore. Players don't move, no control over anything. I'm playing in mud. When I'm in offense there is hardly a player to pass to, when in defense I don't have anyone to defend with. Most of the time I'm playing games with ping 15-20
