@EA_Aljo Sorry no, I can't send you a video. I don't play eashl club games anymore, not since the rest of my team quit because of the lag and your lack of effort trying to solve it.
The occasional games I play now are in eashl drop-in mode and in this mode:
* Many searches for a game timeout.
* I play with/against the same players in consecutive games.
* Ping is over 100ms.
This tells me there are no hundreds of thousends, nor millions, of players in this game mode. At least, not in northern Europe.
However, even in these games where the overall lag is noticeable, because of a far away server, I still notice some of the same inconsistencies in the game:
* ONE team is fast.
* ONE team is good at intercepting pucks.
* ONE team has good AI players.
* ...etc.
Just a final thought; how about listening to the people who actually take the time to tell you when something is not working as intended(?).
I get that you sometimes need to tell the not-so-technical-people to restart this or that. But, when that doesn't work? When something is actually wrong??
Oh, another final final-thought; please explain to me, an adult who spent a considerable amount of years in software development, what the difference between me "feeling a lag" and a real lag is. Maybe I can use it towards my paying customers instead of finding the root cause... sounds a lot cheaper.
Have you guys noticed it’s the same thing every year ? This game blows nothing but player delay servers suck it can’t handle all these players on now that lg has started it got worse.. ea won’t admit it .. when was the last time nhl ea servers had a maintenance?
- @Toronto77777 Yes, I agree with you, since September I have a third internet provider, all tests good, ping around 20ms, but I am still late in a lot of matches ..

The servers are regularly maintained. There are many variables that provide your connection besides our servers. They are certainly capable of handling the traffic we get from the new LG seasons starting. I had no issues in my games and nobody complained about lag. We also aren't aware of any issues currently so we'll need to troubleshoot everyone individually.
