Input Lag/Unresponsiveness
New game, same issue. Since last January. Not my first rodeo posting here! To get the jump on the response: Xbox Series X, 1ms monitor, all hardware has been swapped multiple times (including my sys...

Also, we have people all over the world on different connections with different ISPs and different equipment. This makes for a virtually unlimited amount of possibilities of what could be causing games to feel heavy. All we can do is make sure there are no issues on our end and we haven't found any yet that would be causing this.
This is reasonable enough, and I get it to some degree. But it's a 2-way street, and there's a sense of circuitousness and dismissal about what I'm detailing too. I read people post about input delay that might just be server related and not necessarily what I'm trying to address. Even on my best days, before this, I'd gripe about the game feeling laggy some nights. But that's not what I'm here about.
I'm not asking for a magic bullet, and I'm aware you're a forum liaison. But if every piece of hardware has been replaced, and if every other non-EA game does not have this input delay, how could NHL22/23 have massive gamebreaking delay offline and online without it being something inherent to the game? There's too many things that don't add up that I've described. I just want to feel like I'm having a conversation about this with the people who make the game -- not shouting into the void.

this guy from fifa seemed to figure out the issue and why EA in game network performance monitor an UOtrace utility might not be accurate. I am not as network savvy as this guy but I think I am going to get a managed switch at Best Buy tomorrow and see if I can come to same conclusion.
Also this other guy did an experiment and went from winning 7-8 Champs games a week to going 18-2 depending on what city he was in. Spoiler: Montreal and Vancouver were the best cities and are closest to servers.
I just don’t understand how the responsiveness and feel of the skating can vary so much game to game. It even varies WITHIN each game itself. The happens to me in both EASHL and Versus games.
