@MrTryfe new account means you are playing lower tier players. I made a new account in NHL HUT and started from scratch and thought the same thing, but if you think about it they match you up with lower division players, who prob have similar delay issues and it is one reason why they in there to begin with. You start to win more and play better players, and a factor why they are better is because they don't have the same delay issues as you. So because you win and play well, you play yourself out of the "goldilocks" zone and now you have to struggle vs people with connection advantage.
@niccolo91ea Yes, I understand now the differences regarding packets much better now. I spent a whole day yesterday reading on how packets for different use cases aren't the same. Some games in particular like FIFA and NHL seem to use larger packets, which is why the ping is higher in-game as opposed to on WinMTR. Of course as you've said, something is amiss when all ICMP packets reach the destination, but these EA packets are dropping in Wireshark, but packet loss is not shown as occurring in-game using the game's connection monitoring tools.
