Pro Clubs Human Players Clearly Controlling Their Bots (Any's are off)

Hello,

My friends and I have noticed an increase in playing against opposition teams where the humans are able to control the AI bots (not just the R1 type defending but actually dribbling, passing, tackling etc). We have it set so that we do not play against "Any's" but in 11 of our 12 games that we played last night, we could clearly tell that somebody on their team was controlling the bots on their team. This is really infuriating as it gives their team a clear advantage.

We do not wish to play with an 'Any' on our team and just would like to play against teams that do not have any "Any' or control their bots like this as it gives them an advantage. Has anyone else experienced this and is there any way to avoid these teams? We have tried everything we can think of including turning off cross-play but we continue to come up against these cheating teams. It's very prevalent on the PS4 version of the game but certainly does come up between 30-50% of the time on Xbox One and PS5 too when I play with friends on those consoles.

Thanks for advice in advance to anyone who can help with this.

    There's a bug in the lobbies that reset your search preferences if anyone joins or leaves the line up when others are playing, or have just played.

    It will reset your "any" preference as well as GK & Min/Max Players.

    To avoid this, if anyone needs to join the line up, you need to all back out to the main lobby screen and all join the line up from there.

    It's quite an old bug that never seems to be fixed or addressed along with all the others in clubs.

    Perhaps this is the cause of your issues?

    Thank you for your reply. We will go ahead and back out to the main lobby and hop back in and see if that fixes things. EA have done such an abysmal job on this game in so many facets.

    Hopefully that's the cause of it for you.

    We play a ton of clubs and haven't once felt that any team were cheating to use an Any.

    There certainly are plenty of cheats out there, but I don't think that's in their tool set - yet!
