Online play solution

[EnigmaticZee]

I have been having issue playing online from the day i installed the game. What i realized is if i play with guys from my country or close countries game goes well but as soon as i chose someone from other countries the issues of disconnection starts. I was thinking why not make online play and categorize it with chat room sort of thing so one can chose from which country i want to play against and that should solve the latency issues as well. I think it can be integrated with the existing functioning. I am a programmer myself so i know this is going to be difficult but just throwing in my suggestion. What you guys think ?

The pool of players is too small to be categorized extensively. A better idea would be to try to get an connection with lower pings.

This game's servers are not very impressive, your best bet is to play with people that are from the same country as you. Even then so you have to make sure that the internet connection from both sides is good.

Absolutely wrong. It does not matter if the player is near or far from you. I stay in India and I play regularly with my friends sitting in Canada / Australia & UK and some days there are issues and some days it is absolutely smooth. The same happen while playing with my friends who stay in the same building as I am. Sometime we connect very well, and sometime though our connections are good and we can connect with others but for some strange reasons we cant connect with each others. So, there is no hard and fast rule like connection been better with opponent near to your country or very far from your country. I dont know the reason why it is like this, but this is what happens and it behave strangely from time to time.

Yeah, I maybe wrong but whatever may the reason be, you know it and I know it that it's rare to have a completely lag free game with people that are far from you. Main issue in the lag is delayed fielders reaction and batsman's response to the run button. I have played with people from even West Indies and even with them game is playable but not as smooth as it is with my friend who lives like 400 miles away from me. My game with him runs as smooth as playing offline with CPU. My internet connection is not an issue, I've never encountered even slightest of lag in Fifa.

Slow Outfield Fielder is not because of Lag or Internet connection, its a Bug which have been now corrected in Patch 2.5 for PC. Now irrespective of connection there is NO slow moving fielder.

But slow motion bowling now (lag-very rare though)
