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.
