Thought maybe it was just me, but I too have noticed H2H and VSA have been worse than ever recently. Sometimes I see a high ping (70ms-95ms, when my connection is more like 24ms) and I’m inclined to chalk it up to poor matchmaking, but I now regularly experience latency in VSA even when the ping is showing 20-30ms. It used to be that VSA was the most consistent/reliable game mode, but no more. My players behave weirdly (balls running between their legs, inputs failing to register until a beat too late) with regularity.
Don’t know what’s causing it, but the inconsistent gameplay devalues the whole experience at a time when EA is trying to charge everyone more than ever. If EA is going to gouge users with this new draft system and then not make ANY investment in gameplay it becomes just another reason to look for the exit door.
Just experienced another wild VSA match. Player movement was just bizarre — my guys were lurching this way and that, incomplete roulette moves, inexplicably poor touches, etc. In short, stuff that just wasn’t happening in the match I’d played only a minute earlier. It’s not fair and it’s not fun. How long do we have to wait for EA to FIX THE GAMEPLAY?
