Still bad lag in Fifa 14 - response from EA

[fireworks]

Lol, I would be very deluded if that was the case.
Quite a shame really that I will be losing my super fast downloading speeds.

I only play Fifa and Cod online, but will play these all year round, when the chance permits.
The gaming connection is more important to me though so that's my priority.

I will post once the adsl is back.

Good luck, please let us know if it worked! my contract ends in October 😞 Had to renew because of BT Sport. If it works and you are right, surely BT can do something to change it for us gamers to help us? Surely they can't just ignore us

Two more days untill the big Adsl changeover.

Feeling optimistic. 🙂

Played my first game last night around 10.00pm and it was amazing.
All responses had returned each button press was in sync.

I was able to run, tackle and defend as you're supposed to.

A few more nights of testing needed, hoping to get around 4/5 games tonight.
Very pleased so far, could be a one off but highly doubt it.

Give it a few days or upto 2 weeks. I remember changing hub and it was fine for a day or two then went back to normal. Playing a match now and it is horrific.

I am still using the same Hub, i am quite confident that going back to adsl is the solution.

[Manutdimy]

If that is the reason then that is a joke, having to go back to slower speeds in order to play a game, BT should be help accountable. It isn't fair on us at all.

Took this from another forum, not my personal belief but might mean something to a few people.

Folks i would suggest you all type "jitter online gaming" into google you will see 1000's of threads on the subject of Jitter and Fiber cable internet.
Would suggest you do a ping test on your internet and see what your Jitter level is ... if it is rubbish then thats why your game lags nothing to do with EA if your Jitter is bad does not matter a jot if you have 30MB 80MB 150MB 100000MB internet the fact is if you have bad Jitter (which is down to your ISP not the game) you are better off on a basic copper cable package of 5MB because your gaming will be far smoother.

My own belief is that somewhere along the line something is struggling to stay in sync with the fibre connection.

Sounds about right and explains a lot.
