Playing bots all the time in Rivals?

Just curious (and I can't see this as a topic) but over the past week about every other game I have played in Rivals has been against a bot or someone auto-playing. In the past I would think of this as rubber-banding and it happened occasionally. This is more than every other game and the bot is 'auto-playing' in the exact same way (like the players move in exactly the same direction each game). Also, there's very little waiting time like there is when someone just rubber-bands and just leaves the game to play out. It feels like a bot set up to get coins or something. Anyone else having this issue?

    yup, i have noticed it to. Random teams, often created in the last few months. clearly AI controlled. I'ts not that i can't win most of them but it;s not fun to play. And i want to play real people. What's the point in playing against bots.

  • Haven't seen it this season but it happened a lot in the final four months of FIFA 24. I presumed it was EA testing out AI for the current version of the game. It's boring playing the games as they're usually easy to win 20 or 25-0, but if it gets the 35 points to have even the remotest chance of packing a decent reward.... 😃

    Yeah, they're easy wins, but what's the point of winning 20-0? I just quit them usually.

    yeah this isn't EA. I think it's bots harvesting coins. I'm matching with them all the time. I don't mind wins but if it takes 25 minutes of super-boring gameplay...I'm not doing that.
