Server region changed automatically from Middle East to Southern Europe - FC 26

 Hello EA Help Team,

  I would like to report a possible issue with the Middle East servers for EA Sports FC. Recently, many players in the Middle East region are experiencing higher ping and unstable connections during online matches. Normally, the ping is around 30–40 ms, but recently it has increased significantly and gameplay feels delayed. There have also been regional events affecting network infrastructure in countries like the UAE and Bahrain, and we are not sure if this is impacting the EA servers or routing to them. Could you please check the status of the Middle East servers and confirm if there are any ongoing issues or routing problems affecting players in this region?

Location: Amman/ Jordan 

Platform: Playstation

  Thank you for your support

    I'm in Xiamen, China. its been 3 days since the game is sending me to European server. I'm certain. My ping is 300. People that I match have their default user languages set to Polish, Dutch, French, Spanish... This cannot happen. As much as I'd love to play against my fellow europeans, thats simply not possible from distance. I don't get it why would the game send me to a server thats 10k kilometers away. There is HK server which is just near my location, Tokio, Singapore... both relatively close. I never had this issue before. I really don't know what to do.
