@blue166 Ok so I have been looking at the locations of the opponents I have faced who use the kick off glitch, I've not played against a single UK based player who has used it against me. Russia and Spanish based players seem to be the worse culprits, a few France based players have used it but not as much as Spain and Russia.
It's become a little side game to guess the location of my opponent when the glitch is used.
Ok so now into July 2024 and French opponents use it a lot. Nine times out of ten, if I am playing against an opponent in France, they will use the kick off glitch. It's like it's the only way they can win or something...by cheating. There should be something in online seasons matchmaking where you can opt to not play against players in specific locations.
