Madden 17: 11 Things Gamers Need to Know

Madden 17 Lag, Greifers and Online Play

Better online play is part of the Madden 17 upgrades according to EA Sports. This is important as we've all run into moments where the game lags and a leaves our opponent open for a touchdown.

With Madden 17, we should see several key improvements that make the game more fun to play online against friends and random online opponents. Here are important changes;

  - Improvements to online play that should result in users encountering less lag.

  - Preventing players from attempting to boot opponents out of game sessions and forcing a loss.

If EA is able to pull this off, it will deliver a huge boost to the game, allowing gamers to complete more games with friends and to enjoy competitive online games more. 

Despite this change we've already lost connection to one game. An opponent blamed lag for a loss in another game, but they likely just couldn't kick.
