EA connection issues in Ultimate Team/Rivals
Tried to play Rivals for the first time this game, and in both the 2 games I played, connection issues occured in BOTH games. I was never booted from the match because of connection issues, but the red connection warning appeared, and I couldn't control my players anymore. And when I got control of them again, the input lag was hilariously bad.
I checked to see if my wifi was acting up, but I tried to start a download for a 125gb game, and it said it would be done in 1 1/2 hours, so it's not my wifi doing this. Disclaimer; The download was not active when I was playing, I started the download after closing down EAFC.
The EA site says there are no issues with connectivity, but thats laughable, really. This is a prime example of why I can't stand playing EA games online, and mainly play career mode, because the servers are the worst I've ever seen. When the main focus for the game is the online part in general, basic, good servers shouldn't be a problem.
If anyone else got the same issue, I'd love to hear it. I want to give Ultimate team a good go this year, but what's the point when you can't enjoy 95% of the main part of it.
