Losses in SB's due to EA servers / unrealistic AI performance / No FPS showing.

This is not new news at all, but I am completely fed up with the disconnection at end of games in squad battles... It is the only mode I play in FC26, apart from when the UT servers are down and then I play a friendly or player career on the rare occasion.
Its not fair that it then counts as a 3-0 loss... why can't the score line be kept in memory and then points awarded to the real winner. Its gruelling enough trying to win the Squad Battles on Legendary, and after so much effort to try finish in Elite 1, I get thwarted so often due to disconnection and then lose thousands of points. It undermines the whole week of effort in the 16 games one has to score points. Can EA please make an alternate plan for a disconnect, like try a different kind of setup where it recognises if its an EA issue, or if the player quits? Or make the game redundant and one can play it again. I know it is a tricky situation to manage as players may then try and abuse it, but at the moment the player that pays EA for the game is always the one getting penalised for every disconnect, and this is not fair at all.

EA, can you please fix your problems. They are your problems becoming my problems, and yet I am the one paying for these problems, its not a free game, it is actually ridiculous that this issue persists for so long over and over. It makes the whole game frustrating week after week, and becoming so frustrating that I don't know how to actually enjoy this game anymore. Its like I am just waiting for the disconnect.

I have made the game have administrator rights and all sorts to see if it helps... but one never knows when it will just give you a 3-0  loss.

The servers were maintained today and then I lose games due to server disconnect... great, what amazing maintenance you have done???

Find a solution not to the fact it will disconnect, but a more fair points system around it, making it a 3-0 loss when one is up in multiple goals after a stressful and tedious game is really the worst kind of reward for the effort.

As for the gameplay in FC26, it is more tedious than ever to gain possession, and the AI opponents seem to have rubber legs and heads that reach out at warp speed and get the ball from me, often slide tackling from meters into my player, it is so unrealistic and unfair... my players cant do that at all, no matter how I tray tackle and slide, so it seems that its not an equal ground either... So this, coupled with the disconnect 3-0 loss just makes this game very tiring and unrewarding overall.

Another point, I cant get any FPS showing, using Xbox Game tools, AMD GPU or Steam... its very backwards... For a PC player, we need to know this to setup the game, and figure out what settings cause lag etc. Why cant you allow this... I have tried so many things for weeks and not once can I get the FPS showing. This game makes my GPU fan go into overdrive, its so **bleep** noisy... never happened in FC25, so not sure what is going on, why is this game so unoptimised on so many levels?

    Just experienced this. I finished a SB match and suddenly i got disconnected and it counted as a loss. I don't know if this issue is only on PC but this is truly unacceptable. People pay for this "game" every year and it still has GAMEBREAKING bugs. Few weeks back I was not able to play any online game mode because of that "crowd quality" issue. PC players should be compensated for this disaster of a game. We are literally losing a lot of rewards, every patch F'ed up the game in some way.
