Stuttering in full game, same as demo!!

Here is an example of what the game is doing for me..

I've got the PS4 digital download and it's buttery smooth for me.

Ps4 digital download. I do see some stuttering in the pre match skills challenges. No issues in actual games.

I've played a couple of games in the play-now mode and it was fine. In career mode/manager I'm in the middle of my first game (at Stoke w/ rainy conditions) and the stuttering issue is beyond just an irritant. It seems to happen more often (maybe 35-40% of the time) when you're further towards the box area and at random everywhere else on the pitch. I'd imagine this will be quickly patched, but until then it really throws a wrench in the gameplay.

Just read in another forum that if you have this issue to try turning off the UPNP option on your router. I did it and now my games run extremely smooth. Thank goodness. Now I can go to bed. Lol.

That's not normal, perhaps your PS4 HD is gone??

It's not a HDD issue. A TON of people have been reporting this problem on other forums. Sony even issued a statement about "some issue" during the demo.. I assume it was this one because I saw this getting pasted in threads where people were talking about the stuttering.

"Our team is aware of an issue affecting some players on the PS4 #FIFA15Demo and is investigating now. Thanks for your patience.

I have read that you can actually make sure certain ports are unblocked to get rid of general lag online. Since rawdog said turning off UPNP helped, maybe this will help with the stutter as well? Here's a list from another site of the ports to open up. (segmentnext is the site, can't post direct links yet)

XBOX 360

UDP: 53; 88; 3074; 3659
TCP: 53; 80; 3074; 3659

XBOX ONE

UDP: 53, 88, 500, 3074, 3544, 3659, 4500
TCP: 53; 80; 3074; 3659

PS3

UDP: 3074, 3478-3479, 3658-3659, 5223, 6000
TCP: 80, 443, 3659, 5223, 10000-10099, 42127

PS4

UDP: 3074, 3478-3479, 3659, 6000
TCP: 80, 443, 1935, 3478-3480, 3659, 10000-10099, 42127

PC

UDP: 3659; 9565; 9570; 9000 – 9999
TCP: 3569; 9946; 9988; 10000 – 20000; 42124

At worst, opening said ports should make general lag online better.. So I hope this helps in SOME way.. Even if it just makes the game less laggy for you online.

Disclaimer: That's a lot of ports to open, and I'm not an expert. I'm just going by what I've read. If you're unsure, hit up Google. Always better to be safe than sorry.
