Restrictive Matchmaking in Online Seasons
Hi, Can anyone playing the ea fc 25 beta please let us know if restrictive matchmaking works in Online Seasons? If i pick a 4 star team, will the game give me games with 5 star teams like Man City, ...

Well I know I've had it how much simpler do I have to make it. Whatever anyways, beating a dead horse, unless it's FUT it won't change
@thurlow885 it is as simple as this: before EA FC 24, restrictive matchmaking worked. i could pick 3.5 star teams like rangers and celtic and NEVER got 5 star teams. as @martinhoAlonso has attested to as well.
for ea fc 24, oddly enough, restrictive matchmaking worked in online cup mode. if you picked a 4 star team, you’d never get a 5 star team, even though most people are choosing Man City, Real Madrid.
only explanation is this: someone at EA forgot to turn restrictive matchmaking on or deliberately didnt do so for the seasons league component. that is sheer negligence and bordering on criminal.
@thurlow885 What don’t you understand in the fact that the matchmaking in FC 24?is literraly broken and was Good with older Fifa.
On fifa 23, for example, if You put restrictive and 4 star team, , if the Game doesn’t find an opponent, it says you ´no opponent found’ and on fc24 it finds very quickly with a 5 star team. I Got the impression that the Game doesn’t make a real search.@dazzelecloudy ea play costs 5€ for a month and You can play 10h with every New EA Game in their final version
@thurlow885 cool i will check it out indeed. yes i completely remember the message ‘no opponent found’ sometimes coming up in fifa 23 and older. and i was fine with it because i will just search again. eventually there will be an opponent found.
all these defenders of EA answer this: if indeed you guys are right, there is no demand for restrictive matchmaking, why does the option exist for us to select then???? the option exists, we select it, it does not work??? what kind of weird situation is that? you guys don’t find it bizarre as hell???? what does it say about EA?
@EA_Hux how about replying in this thread about restrictive matchmaking in seasons instead of just replying in threads where $$$ is mentioned? the online seasons community deserves answers

FFS dunno how many time I gotta say I do understand, but how many more time do I have to explain I experienced this before EA FC 24 as well. Just cause you didn't or claim it was fine it wasn't for me. I won't reply anymore cause we're just going round in circles. I know what your saying I know how match making works or is suppose to work but I also know before FC 24 I was playing against 5 star teams when I was a 4 star team some times, but that seems too hard for you to understand. It's one of the reasons I gave up on Seasons..now I just play it sporadically towards the end of the game year because it's now boring and repetitive, I've even surrendered to playing Ultimate Team which I completely ignored until FIFA 21 altho I refuse to buy points etc. I know my experiences with Seasons, dont tell me I'm wrong and don't understand when I most definitely do
@thurlow885 the seasons community only started complaining about this from ea fc 24 and you claim that this has happened before that?? even if you are right, this is still EA’s fault - it is their stupid and mad decision to abolish restrictive matchmaking, while leaving the option there that is totally infuriating
