Delay in Rivals only
Hi EA Support,
I’ve been facing a consistent input delay issue in EA Sports FC 26 on PC, but it only happens in Ultimate Team Rivals matches.
Here are the details:
- The delay starts about one minute after the match begins.
- Rush matches and offline modes are completely fine — no input delay at all.
- My ping is stable around 40ms, and I’m not using any VPN.
- I’ve reinstalled the game, reset my connection, and tried different controllers — no change.
- It feels like the Rivals mode connects me to a distant data center (probably EU) instead of a nearby one (like Middle East / Dubai).
Please check if my account is being routed to the wrong server region for Rivals mode.
This issue makes the game nearly unplayable online.
