Poor ping nhl 26

I’ve played a ton of games in NHL 26 and this is the first connection that I have seen that is orange, as my settings are set for low pinging.

All morning my connection pinging was fantastic, with green I meet this one player and the ping connection is orange 88 when we start the game. I knew exactly what was going to happen and exactly what happened is that I couldn’t move. I couldn’t skate, I could not even do a thing but this other player could escape circles around me. 

I had my ping checked while I was playing on a computer and my Internet pinging is 18 so you cannot tell me that this pin of 88 is on my part….

when this poor ping occurs we should be allowed to leave the game without DNF!!!!

absolutely pathetic

  • When you "had my ping checked while I was playing on a computer and my Internet pinging is 18"  what IP address were you pinging?  Ping is the time it takes data to travel from your machine to a particular server and back.  It will vary greatly depending on the physical location of the server you're connecting to.

    What game mode are you playing?  Both HUT and WOC use dedicated servers so your ping when connecting to them should be relatively consistent assuming you regularly connect to the same server.  Versus still uses direct peer-to-peer connections where your ping will fluctuate wildly depending on how far you are from your opponent.

    EA has some standard troubleshooting tips here.
