Does lag drain your players energy.

Deffo not a high press type of guy.

So I get rather annoyed in certain matches when my players get absolutely knackered.

It seems to be in matches when the connection and lag is at its worst.

Anyone else noticed this?

    I think so. I have my tactics on balanced on all and sometimes around min 37 players are on yellow and I get quick subs suggestion

    Yes I get this sometimes, I've also had this when the opponent has had constant pressure on before and my players become knackered.

    It's probably because your opponent is using constant pressure. It's dumb that it makes your players tited too, but this is a company that can't fix the radar disappearing, the teams not showing at the start and the WL win counter.

    One of my thoughts as well.

    And as you say so dumb that you potentially get penalised for someone else having there players running around like madmen.

    Yeah, it's also noticeable when you're playing an op with constant pressure

    I find it's the opposite when I have bad delay, all my players hardly use any stamina and stay in the high green.

    I dont know what it does to stamina but the lag and delay is seriously diminishing my will to play the actual game.

    It seems every week I think it cant get any worse and yet it does.

    I remain convinced though that not all of it is delay, its the crap animations that are built in that supplement the crap servers. Combine this with the opponents 4-2-2 and a steroid fuelled high press and its simply not fun

    I wouldn't have thought they could screw up a simple W-L counter on the FUT Champions screen but here we are.

    I've found in laggy games that stamina does drain faster for some reason, there are times you switch to a player and they already have a white bar like they have been sprinting and are in the red yet it's only the AI that's been in control of them.

    It's the same with constant press. With the opponents players being touch tight and constantly banging into your players it drains your players stamina as well.

    The games a mess.

    Let's not forget the controller setting issue.

    Lag causes your players to be out of position, slower to react to passes and potential interceptions, slower to turn, control as if you are holding sprint, wayward passes and often will not react to skill move input. All that coupled with an opponent using constant press just means that you basically have zero hope of winning. It will drain stamina too as you are constantly trying to make amends for the deficiencies caused by the lag. If I feel it for a couple of games I’ll just switch it off or play something else as you won’t be able to play any FUT mode. Yes, lag even affects squad battles which is supposed to be the offline mode in FUT, yeah right.
  • Jup same for me aswell. While i have everything on balanced and my opponent is clearly using pressure tactics all my players drain like a broken waterpipe.
