I've been constantly Disconnected from EA servers while playing or even browsing the menus in HUT mode. Sometimes I manage to complete a full game, but that's very rarely..Never had issues with previous NHL17.Also the broadband/internet connection is good without any interruptions.What could cause such issue with this?

Ive had the same problem except now I cant even find an opponent. I just recieve a msg saying " Failed to retrieve data;please try avain later" followed but a long error code and there is nothing wrong with my internet.

I just got disconnected from your servers on the dying seconds of the third period on hut champs. Which means I got placed lower than I was supposed to and this means I wont be able to get the better rewards. Please, fix your game or don't release another one

Online play is terrible. NHL 18 is the only game I have that constantly drops out. It gets worse after each update they release. Don't waste your time trying to call and get support or going through all the useless setting changes. It's not your console or settings, the game has had online connection problems since day one. Just cross your fingers they get it right in NHL 19, and hopefully spent some time on this issue and not just adding pond hockey.

I moved your topic to the correct section.

Hello @kristsl Sorry to hear about the issue you are having with NHL 18, when did this issue start to happen for you? Also, have you tried any form of troubleshooting? /Atic

Yeah this * is honestly unreal man. One night I’ll disconnect ten times in a row searching for a game and the next I can play ten straight maybe lagging out once, most times not even because of me. And there’s also plenty of times I’ll lag out where I don’t take an L which mean this is HAPPENING TO AO MANY OTHERS! FIX THIS ***********************!!!!
