I’ve been struggling with matchmaking in FC 26, and it’s been getting worse since the recent updates. From Egypt, I consistently get thrown into lobbies with either Middle East players who have 5–10 ms ping while I sit at 45–55 ms, or South European opponents who also have around 10 ms while I’m still stuck at 50 ms. This creates a huge, unfair advantage in gameplay. My routing seems unstable, and instead of connecting me to the closest or most balanced server, the game keeps matching me across regions with completely different latency levels. The result is delayed responsiveness, heavy gameplay, and an overall inconsistent experience. I’ve tested my connection multiple times and the issue is clearly related to how FC 26 handles matchmaking and regional servers for players in Egypt. I really hope EA can address this and improve server selection and routing for our region.
Even in eastern europe we have 0 servers and the matchmaking is like 90% germans 9.9% italians and polish all those with dedicated servers and 0.1% other players from eastern europe... Those servers are scripted to give advantage to those countries from western europe...
