Game is completely dead

I use this settings. It has something to do with the network and EA servers. I also changed some settings to my network. Is not good but it works. Went the lag is to high players have some delay. When the lag is good I need to adjust to the fast pace, the screen refresh rate is optional. Playing with a higher refresh rate does make the game smoother but that is not the actual gameplay( somehow this setting applies only to you). A lower refresh rate is not that bad if you get use to it. I think is about personal preference and sometimes I do change this setting. Having auto-play off also helps but you will have problems when it comes to stops and turns. Your defenders will slide but if you manage to defend in the zone and not opt for an aggressive type of defending will help you. Also choose a more defensive tactic with 4 defenders and 2 cdms.
