I don't know maybe everyone already knows this but there is a pretty fool-proof way to determine lag/delay before getting into the game.

(OTP only)

At the team selection screen right when you join a session, I just work the ready button a couple times, if it's a little unresponsive or has a half-second delay, then your most likely going to have that awful 1/4 to 1/2 second stall on everything in gameplay. Try it out I'm not lying, haven't had a delay in a long time.

Me and my club does this all the time. It works.
But sometimes it is smooth when you are "ready up" then the game starts and i lag like a *****

I think it means "quoted for truth". But don't quote me for truth on that

Since this game isn't really that great as previous installments I don't play it that much (may quit buying from EA all together). Anyways, I never played OTP before but will remember this tip whenever I do. Thanks.

I always do this trick when I play my EASHL.

However I noticed that when you are on the away team, the lag is ALWAYS good.

Something to do with who's hosting or something?
