Gameplay is at the lowest, Oceania servers are horrible

When I first started playing fifa in Australia a couple years back I knew there would be some problems with the little amounts of people playing the game in this country but I didn’t think it would be this bad… I’ve been playing since the end of fifa 23 and in this current fifa have started to get better at the game but it has always seemed so hard playing games in this server because of the people I vs, I watch fifa on YouTube’s watching people play European servers and I swear that the people I vs in division 5 for example are the exact same as people in European servers in elite division, season ended a few weeks ago relegating me down by 2 divisions and the last week I’ve been trying to get back to division 4 and i constantly vs the most sweaty people I have vssed on this game having front lines of r9, mia hamm, mbappe, fut fantasy MAICON, even having the fut champs evo cosmetic on aswell, in DIV 5?! The horrible gameplay that’s been happening recently has not been helping at all too, the last time I got close to getting Div 4 I was one game away vssing 2 people in a co op with a crazy team while having to deal with the horrible gameplay consisting of misplaced passing, horrible defending, horrible positioning etc etc, my players can barely pass where I want them to, it is the most frustrating thing in the world, I get inches close to Div 4 and some horrible mistake that wasn’t even my fault stops me from getting there, genuinely shouldn’t be this hard. I genuinely am getting so tired of this game and how sweaty Oceania servers are, vssing the same sweaty people every night when I play, I’m most frustrating thing in the world, I can’t decide whether it’s my fault or not either in these games too but like I said watching people play in European servers in elite division for example just looks the exact same to people I vs in Div 5 and that’s not even an exaggeration.

  • It would be nice if everyone had server coverage like Europe. I know it’s not as popular where I live so it makes sense we don’t have server coverage like Europe either.  I just think it depends on the population.

    Yea 100%, any other server then Europe servers are absolutely terrible, it can be so frustrating, don’t get why the game is made like this, only people playing Europe servers can properly enjoy the game with and without bad gameplay, also the content times too like in Europe the times for the content are normal times that you would be easily able to access to play the new content each day for the game but for example I live in Western Australia so every day when new content comes it comes at 2am so I either have to stay up til then or I miss out on so many things happening, the amount of glitches and things that people get rewarded out from eas bugs and I can only be involved if i stay up til 2 am, Toty Messi glitch is a prime example, basically guaranteed Toty Messi which I have to stay up til 2 am to get, the amount of these glitches that happen too gives people like me another huge disadvantage.

  • I sorta get the servers for population.  You are right though they should mix the times for releases as that’s probably something they could do for the rest of the world that would make it more fair.

    Yea it’s more just a pain about the servers, sucks there’s such a low amount of players playing outside of European servers, at least it gives me an excuse to be a low division and do horrible in champs 😂 that’s even if I can find a game in champs, but yeah about the daily update, they really gotta change the times, like I said I think, if I want to be involved with all the new content I have to stay up til a very unreasonable time, last year I missed out on so much 🤣 toty Messi was the main suspect, was staying up every night since it was toty, the night toty Messi was glitched I was tired as anything and staying up til 2 am was just such an effort so I was halfway to doing the pick and couldn’t be bothered so I closed the web app and went to sleep, woke up and saw how close I was to a toty Messi in my team😢

    Dude, I am in the UK & the servers are absolutely **bleep**. Everyone I know plays with a 500ms delay on EVERYTHING that they do in the game. It's a mess. Me & my team are all quitting as of today. It's a waste of your time. Play something made by devs who have an actual passion for their craft. This game is dictated by shareholders and implemented by sell outs.

    I feel your pain mate! I moved from England to Melbourne 12 years ago.. I've played FIFA since FIFA 2003. Oceania is trouble for gaming. I go back on holidays and play at my brother's place. The gameplay is night and day. People don't know how easy they've got it.
