Community ManagerIs NHL still in your Quick Resume menu? If so, try removing it and see if that helps. Unfortunately, I'm out of ideas. The majority of the playerbase isn't experiencing this so that makes it harder to track down. We'll keep an eye out for other reports. Since it happens on a new account as well, it's possible that could point to an issue outside of our game/servers. Does the same thing happen if you play on a totally different connection? We're also investigating connection issues reported here so if something is found, I'll report back with those details.
@EA_AljoI've deleted my game and data so many times. I never have once played with it on Quick Resume; I close app every time. I'm talking about the programming of the game -- it's programmed to retain certain short term data on the Xbox. Close the app, delete the game, whatever. It will show what mode you last played; it will save your settings; it will not reboot from the initial screens I posted on page 4 (post #34).
Plenty of people have input delay, whether it's a minority or not. It's basically impossible for me to have a hardware issue at this point, and I can't simply blame the servers. So, I'm thinking outside the box. I notice the game performs better OFFLINE when I delete all data OFFLINE and boot it back up OFFLINE, which is the only way to replicate the game actually starting from scratch. Something is happening when it loads online -- saving short-term data? synching data? -- is affecting the performance. I usually test in Offline Free Skate, and many times I notice it will feel normal for a minute before suddenly getting sluggish.
