FIFA Fans React to EA’s New Matchmaking Technology Test
Players quickly expressed their annoyance about the noticeable delays encountered during the trial of the novel matchmaking system. A user named 2pacalypse1994 didn’t mince words, exclaiming, “Fix the delay!! I plan to repeatedly report this issue in the player feedback section.” It seems that many others share his exasperation, eager to start playing without being confronted by lengthy loading screens and questioning their decisions. Instead of an enjoyable gaming experience, several players have been struggling, describing it as if they were trapped in treacle. LetMeInFFH voiced their troubles, saying, “Well, my last five games had pings ranging from 28 ms to 60 ms,” which is not what most players anticipate. This inconsistency in connection speeds has driven numerous players to drop out of matches, claiming that it feels less like a well-crafted game and more like an unrefined beta-test.
