I played FIFA WC 2006 with my friend on lan and the game played at 2~3 fps for both of us ... Whereas in single player mode the game runs smoothly over 40fps on both our pcs..

I checked the ping time ... It's 1ms ... So no problems there ....

So why is this happening ? The other games like QuakeIII post no such problems...

Any solutions ?

But the same thing happens with NFS .... and also somewhat with PES .... I don't suppose they made their games so poorly netcoded for lan ...

also my friend plays fifa on LAN at his college ... He says it runs smoothly .... I don't get how ...

Yeah that's the problem .... i've tried both direct IP and LAN modes .... And actually it was a lil bit faster in Direct IP mode ... But still it's a weird thing ... Any other soccer game playable on LAN ?

PEs is playable, and it is also a good game to play
