Game rarely connects to EA server

I have a hard time connecting to the EA servers. It’s constantly telling me I can’t connect at this time and to please try again. Sometimes I can get it to connect, but as soon as I try to play with a friend online, or road to the playoffs online it instantly freezes. I’ve only been able to play one game online in the hundreds of attempts I’ve tried.

    Every game is different. Just because some work doesn't mean the issue is on our end. Also, in comparison to how many people are playing, there are a small number of reports from those that can't connect. If this was an issue on our end, we'd be seeing a far higher number of contacts about it. You can connect on a different network so this points to an issue with your ISP or network equipment.

    It's possible your save is corrupted. What console are you playing on?

    Try deleting the personal saved data for CF 25. It's possible you could lose any offline saves and changes to settings. Normally, those will download from the cloud, but I can't guarantee that will happen so perform this at your own risk. Go to Settings/Storage/System. Locate CF 25 and delete the saved data.

    @EA_Aljo Yea I hear what you’re saying, but doesn’t make sense to me that I can eventually connect to the ea sever but as soon as I get in a online lobby and waiting for a opponent it just never finds an opponent and eventually have to quit the game. I don’t see how that’s a internet problem

    It could very well be an internet issue since matchmaking is using your internet connection to find opponents.

  • No. It’s likely not an internet issue. This happens to me every time I play Madden no matter my location. I’m unable to connect to the servers as well.

    Speed doesn't matter when you can't connect. That's just how quickly data transfers back and forth. It has nothing to do with actually connecting. Again, since a completely different connection works, it's due to an issue with your ISP or equipment. Did you contact them?
