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...

@9up3dprurovj The minute someone explains how it could affect free skate, let alone online, is the minute we actually approach a solution. How could an offline mode have delay issues, with no other developers games having this delay? It only goes back to an inherent issue with this game.
I've noticed that when I mess around with things offline (I mean no internet, not a game mode) and resetting and deleting data, sometimes the game will prompt me upon loading back online that I can choose the data from my "Xbox" or the "Cloud." This goes back to me wondering why the game always shortcuts right to the main menu, and if the real issue doesn't occur upon loading up, which is why offline is affected -- because it shortcuts and accesses the Cloud immediately.
As I said in my post above though, very late at night, it seems better not just online but offline. How could OFFLINE free skate feel better late at night (and online in suit)?! Shouldn't offline be consistent at all hours because, uh, it's offline? It makes zero sense.

@DeliveryForKiki @So I just did what you said and deleted the saved game data and loaded up the game offline. Played free skate offline, no weird delay after a minute.
then I connected to internet and signed into my Xbox profile. Next I signed into my Xbox profile on the game itself and it restarted the game while also prompting me to sync with cloud data, Xbox data or just create a new profile which I selected. Now I’m in a free skate and the skating feels amazing and the vibration came back which I haven’t felt in god knows how long. About to test a real game.
also when I connected to the internet a second blue controller randomly appeared for no reason.
EDIT: just played two games. First one felt great but then I had to disconnect because the game started endlessly restarting on the faceoff, something I have never had happen to me in NHL 23. Next game felt good for a few minutes and then the horrible delay came back out of nowhere. I hate this game
- @9up3dprurovj I always have the blue controller, I can't get it to go away. Usually, I unplug it in Play Now and it goes red. But sometimes it shows me as a green controller too. I know that's a known glitch, and I think that's what causes the vibration issue.
It's uncanny that a soft rebooted, no Internet, unsigned in game feels much cleaner. I'm guessing offline isn't as offline as it appears, since as I said, it forces you to sync Cloud data the second it loads. It's perhaps why we get our delay offline too. I know in MLB, my Diamond Dynasty team doesn't sync until I click that mode.
