Account-Specific Gameplay Delay – All Tests Done, Still Unplayable

Hi all,

 

I’m posting here as instructed by EA Help after weeks of extensive testing and no resolution.

 

Issue: My main EA account experiences consistently sluggish gameplay in EA FC 25 Ultimate Team. The delay, input lag, and poor positioning make the game unplayable – but only on this account.

 

I have tested:

 

  • Multiple consoles and locations
  • Different networks (fiber, 4G, mobile hotspot)
  • New PSN + EA accounts → gameplay is smooth
  • DNS, MTU, port forwarding, and full factory reset of PS5
  • Same setup, same network, same device – only the EA account differs

 

 

My main account is clearly linked to some kind of degraded matchmaking, routing, or server-side issue. I suspect something has gone wrong with my connection profile or account flags.

 

What I’m asking for:

 

  • Review and escalate this as an account-level issue
  • Reset or refresh matchmaking/server routing profile
  • Pass this on to the studio or devs if needed

 

 

I’ve done absolutely everything a player can do on their own – it’s now up to the dev side.

Platform: PS5

 

Thanks in advance.

    Experiencing the same exact issue on my main account. Did you try removing and re-adding PSN account from the console? I'm thinking about doing this and/or changing emails on both my psn (don't know if possible) and my EA account

  • Did you ever get this fixed or no. I’ve been having the same issue for months and literally did everything you did to fix it.

    No I didn’t get it fixed! Only way to get good gameplay again is from a new PS5 and a completely new account!! Maybe even a new IP address is to recommend!

    Have you gotten any help on this? I have the same exact issue as you like word for word. I thought I was the only one with this issue. It happened to me around tots in fc25 and now I’m having these issues on madden 26. There’s delay for no reason

    My account is since 2010, last 3 years are unplayable.

    I came here to find solutions and can’t have chat with ea help! 

    something is WRONG! 

    i tried another ID same console same connection and everything is smooth!, its only my main account 

    The only solution is to change ID with a new one :)
