WWE 2K17: 10 Tips To Play Like A God
3. Immediately Check For Lag During Online Matches
Lag has been a major issue in WWE's games for years and years, and 2K17 is sadly no different, despite how much fans have been begging Yuke's to fix it.
You can save yourself a little time and annoyance by checking how badly a match is lagging the moment it begins. As soon as the match starts, move around in the ring and see how much time there is between your button press and your wrestler's movements.
You can use this disparity as a "guide" of sorts to figure out how to time your button presses to compensate for the lag, or if the lag seems bad enough, simply come out and find another match.
It looks like Yuke's aren't ever going to fix the lag issues, so it's best to just get used to your attacks having an input delay if you're that determined to play the game online. If you can get into the right groove of figuring out the latency, it can make matches significantly easier.
