Online matches are ridiculously too difficult
For the past several weeks it has been practically impossible to win an online match, not even close. I'm getting smashed three goals in the first 30 minutes and I can't even reach the opponent's pen...

@wassimabdul They need to make checkpoints longer. That way people can’t go up in division so easy. The only problem with that is you won’t get as good of rewards.
They could always go back to the old way but then it would be even harder as people would drop divisions. Then you would also get worse rewards.

@RadioShaqsI would be totally okay with them going back to the old way even if the rewards are not as good. For two reasons:
1- I can always play in a division against equally skilled players all the time.
2- The rewards I have been getting in division one are fodder trash anyway. I never got any decent card that would go into my squad from reward packs. getting worse packs is not something that would disappoint me at all.
- @wassimabdul The problem is you wouldn’t be playing equal opponents because people dropped to play you then move up for rewards. Get the rewards then drop back down to play you again for easy wins.
Well if EA is thinking the same way you are that means they can't find a solution for matching people with the same skill level.
I'll just quit playing ultimate team and go play online seasons where I can play in a division suitable with my skill level.
@wassimabdulLonger checkpoints would fix it. You wouldn’t be able to drop down like the old style and you would get equal opponents.
Just to add when it was first introduced it was even easy to get in to low of a division so they made checkpoints longer. Now it still might not be good enough just make them even longer meaning more wins in a row to move up. Then you would be in a higher division like 3 4 or 5 playing equal opponents.
@wassimabdul Mate, if you went back to the old 'drop a division by relegation and not winning' you'd be playing people who cheated that system back then. Folk who wanted easier rewards. I think was in fifa 20 or 21, Div 4 rewards were apparently better than the top 3 flights, so no, That system sacked.
Actually just read the pitch notes for next year. While it won’t help you this year they will bring back division dropping and longer checkpoints.
That's good news and I wish they would implement it today; I don't know any other video game that prevents you from playing against people with the same skill level. Lots of players were taking advantage of this system and had easy matches all year long while others were punished for making the mistake of leveling up in divisions. Going up and down in division rankings is fair for everybody.
I see alot of talk about more skilled players and that why you are losing, well first of all we are all placed on diffrent kind of servers and Ea servers are pure crap that is well knowed, thats why every match youre team and players behave diffrent all the time, this game is not a skilled based online game as Ea trying to push it.
Lets begin the server are placed in England, Italy, Germany, France, Holland and Usa i can forgot about some country, it meens that if you not from any of these countrys you playing at their servers for an example you living in Bulgaria and meeting an German player, that meens youre game needs to get the nearest access and that is Germany in this case, the German player is at a ping around 10 meanwhile yours is pending between 20 - 50 ping ofcourse you gonna think that mostly of the player is better than you.
If servers dont work youre game dont work and youre gameplay suffers and this game is almost unplayeble, you can notice this very easy how youre menus is superslow and the matchmaking is superslow, i dont understand why people mention skills and EaFc in the same mention but i guess it is what it is, iam working with programming for 20 y and everybody knows that Ea dont really care about their servers and that they are pure crap to be honest.
Play other online games and then compare that with a Ea game the diffrents is massive, anyway i could breake this down even more but Ea dont like truth they would just ban me as they usually do when someone speaks truth, anyway good luck with youre Ea games....
