I have this strange issue, where the opponent doesnt play. Yes there are passes, but the selected player only runs in one direction. It happens maybe 5-6 games in a row, before I get one normal match, and then the same thing happens. This is not the opponent doing this, but dome glitch/bug. All teams this happens with has different names and users. It kicks my head in. I have to quit thosr mathes and lose contract amounts

I've played rivals and champions the whole year on this fc24 without any problems. Yes ps4 and ps4 version. It all happened after the latest update.

@jonas2173 The only way EA is going to fix the game is if people stop buying it… and they will be forced to do better. I stopped buying it years ago, unfortunately my son ends up buying it or my wife, for our son…

Ah.. jeezus. Whats the point. Thnx anyway mate.

@haimeri i contacted EA. they asked what server i played in and that they gonna add more real players to that server but offcourse nothing happend... i just stopped playing UT.. not worth it.. playing alittle seasons online but the game is buggy slow and trashy in general so... matchmaking horrible.. today i played manual controlls 2,5 stars.. got matched with real madri 5 star team with assisted controlls. even i had restricted matchmaking to same star lvl and manual.... NOTHING WORKS IN THIS FORSAKEN GAME

@sgranum_f3utr7e your playing on ps4 or ps4 version of the game right? you cant play rivals there. Most is just bots. they do 3-4 passes after kick of then just run straight forward to goal without doing anything.

@sgranum_f3utr7e yeah its the same for me. i wanted to play on ps4 version because i think the gameplay is better but its hopeless. i play 80% bots there and i have no idea how its possible to install a bot program on PS. i tried turning of crossplay cause i thought maybe pc players was the problem but it is still the same.
So i had to go back to ps5 version with all the craziness happening there

Same here, I´ve noticed this for a while now while playing with PS4 pro. Only rarely I get an actual opponent to compete with. Is there anything we can do about it because it really kills the vibes with this game.
I won´t even mention all the other frustrating problems that has been going on since the beginning. But have to mention that with these bot players I don´t usually at least have to face the most frustrating thing this version of ”Fifa” has to offer: the slow server/game play issue that makes your players too slow to react and your AI players just jogging around and not playing as a team. If that´s even a positive thing.

This is happening to me too. I keep matching these bots (only happens on PS4/ps4 version). And only happens in Division Rivals.
There is like no solution for it. I can't block these bots because I don't know who I match against.
EA plz do something about it.
