Heavy Input Delay…

Ethernet connection. Extremely fast fibre internet. Gaming router. 2–4ms ping.

PS5 Pro + LG C2 in Game Mode.

And yet I have nothing but delay.

My players barely turn, move, pass, run or shoot when I press the buttons. Everything feels heavy and delayed, while my opponents can run circles around me with seemingly instant responsiveness.

This has been happening to me since FIFA 14. Over the years, my internet, hardware, TV and overall setup have only improved — yet the problem has continued to get worse.

I’ve tried Ethernet, Wi-Fi, different routers, different ISPs, network settings, port forwarding, QoS, display settings and pretty much every troubleshooting suggestion available.

The connection looks perfect on paper, but the gameplay does not feel remotely responsive.

EA, I’ve been posting about this for years.

So seriously — what is the actual fix?

Because at this point, telling players to “check their internet connection” clearly isn’t enough.

    Care to weigh in? I am sick and tired of having to report these issues each year with no resolution.

    Not once have any of you had the decency to contact me, yet I see you helping people with issues with the purchase of FC points. I have spent thousands on points over the years, where’s my attention… this message cannot be ignored.

    Meanwhile my neighbour right across the road who plays on an average set up, has absolutely zero connection issues and can play with no input delay whatsoever… make that make sense.

    Games too slow. The delay from inputs is crazy - clear EAFC issue. Nothing to do with hardware / internet base. Clearly needs patched.
