I've never played FIFA before, but my friend asked me to play, so I gave it a go. I don't have this input delay in FIFA, offline or online. I don't have it in any other game.
Something I posted a long time ago was about how NHL starts up. It will always shortcut boot up, and I'm not talking quick resume. Click the app and it's a grey loading screen. It will always show you the last played mode, even if you delete the game. The full reboot white EA screen -- which you cannot replicate with a factory reset, a game re-download.....anything EXCEPT clearing data offline and reloading the game offline -- appears on FIFA every single time you load the app. I find that unusual, especially since I don't have the same delay there.
Something is wrong with how EA NHL accesses my account/cloud/save data, and I'll die on that hill. It's why if I totally delete all save data (you have to do it twice), set my Xbox to offline only, and load the game not under any account, it feels normal in free skate. But as soon as you sign in, it will ask to load cloud data. I'm not sure how to square the circle of the game sometimes performing normally (offline too) at 3-4am. One of the cleanest nights of the year happened too immediately after the servers crashed.
@DeliveryForKikiI feel like if you give FIFA some time, the same issues will start occurring. I have the exact same issues in FIFA as mentioned previously. The input lag spills out into all offline modes when logged into the EA account. When logged out, everything works as intended.
The experience always degrades from the first time I start playing. First couple of weeks are good, and then the issues start. Happened on Xbox, PS, and PC.

@MrTryfe @DeliveryForKiki Yeah it’s no different for me in FIFA. It’s just less noticeable if you 1.Aren’t as familiar with the game
2. Have no reference to times when the inputs were infinitely more responsive and precise.
