The problem are not the specific EA servers.
When you try the UOTr they test the ping to these servers, and it's basically fine.
The problems are due 2 different stuffs:
- First of all the traffic servers that channel the traffic. They are not enough and they are not power enough. Plus, the average user connection is poor, and you cannot do nothing about it.
- But if in a common game, if you have a poor connection you have a bad experience, seems that on FIFA the EA producers decided to introduce some strange mechanics (check their old notes here ).
Try to remember when you have played a game where the players are literally lagging. NEVER. Players go slow, perform strange actions, but you will never see player stucks or lagging as on an FPS game. That means that the netcode works on it, trying to solve somehow the situation (as stated on FIFA Dev Pitch note #6 of FIFA19)
My suggestions for EA coders are just:
Bring back 1:1 connection. We don't need traffica servers. Who wants to kill the game with lag, already did (no matter what you do).
Remove the changes Devs did on FIFA19 #6 release
Put a live Ping viewer ingame
