Wrong server in Clubs (Brazil) after 1.2.0

Since the last update (1.2.0 – and it continues after today’s 1.2.1 update), Clubs mode matches in Brazil started being hosted on servers from other countries (probably Chile), even friendlies, because everyone is playing with 70–80ms ping. When matches were hosted on the Brazilian server, ping stayed between 5–20ms.

League matches had already been hosted on these external servers since the game’s launch, but having this happen with friendlies as well severely harms the Brazilian Clubs community, where countless weekly tournaments take place with many matches, teams, and players. It’s impossible to play Clubs competitively with 70ms.

Whenever you open the Club editing screen, instead of showing South America as the server, it shows Western Europe, and even if you switch it to South America and save, as soon as you leave the screen the game immediately switches back to Western Europe.

Why did this happen and why haven’t you fixed it yet? When are you going to solve this problem? Why is it so difficult? You release an update to fix one issue and then a bunch of new and worse ones appear. You are killing a mode where thousands of Brazilians play every day and, just like Ultimate Team players, they also paid for the full version of the game.

We need aswers, EA!

    🤬 Clubs Mode: Unplayable in Brazil Since Day One! We Demand Answers, EA!
    Hello EA Forums,
    This is an absolutely unacceptable situation and a slap in the face to the entire Brazilian Clubs community. The issue of server instability and forced redirection to distant regions is NOT NEW. It has been a persistent, game-breaking problem since launch for League matches last year, and now, after the supposed 1.2.0 and 1.2.1 "updates," you have completely broken Friendlies too!
    💥 The Complete Server Catastrophe
     * League Matches were already a joke: Since the release, playing Leagues has been a nightmare, forcing us onto foreign servers—likely Chile, the US, or even Europe—with consistently high, unstable pings of 70ms+. This has been a known, acknowledged, yet UNFIXED issue for months, turning competitive, high-stakes league tournaments for countless teams and players into a laggy, unplayable mess.
     * The Final Nail in the Coffin: Now, with the latest patch, you've killed the only remaining reliable mode: Friendlies. We are now suffering the same fate, being dumped onto foreign servers with 70ms-100ms latency, sometimes spiking to an outright IMPOSSIBLE 200ms!
     * The Western Europe Trap: The glitch where the Club editing screen defaults to Western Europe and instantly switches back from South America is a stark, visual indicator of the underlying, deeply flawed netcode. It shows that your system is actively fighting against us having a playable experience in our own region.
    💔 You Are Actively Killing Our Mode
    The Brazilian Clubs community is massive, composed of thousands of dedicated players who pay the full price for the game, just like Ultimate Team players. We don't just want a functioning game; we want the mode we paid for to be COMPETITIVE and ENJOYABLE.
    70ms is NOT COMPETITIVE. It is a severe technical handicap that makes precise passing, defending, and skill moves impossible. Why are we paying to play a game where the basic controls are delayed by almost a tenth of a second?
    😡 We Need Answers NOW!
     * Why is this recurring issue so difficult to fix? You released an update to address one bug, and in typical EA fashion, you introduced a slew of new, worse ones.
     * When will you deploy a patch that actually FORCES Clubs matches onto the correct, low-ping Brazilian server—the one that works perfectly for Ultimate Team, where we get 4ms-10ms?
     * Are you aware that by ignoring this, you are actively destroying the competitive landscape and passion of the Clubs community in an entire country?
    We've been patient. We've reported. We've endured an unplayable League experience for months. Now that you've broken Friendlies too, this is no longer a bug; it is GROSS NEGLIGENCE.
    WE NEED A FIX. WE NEED IT NOW. STOP TREATING CLUBS AS A SECOND-CLASS MODE!

    All of that, not to mention the other problems… And they even deleted the previous post just like this one. Shame on you, EA! We want solutions, not the silencing of consumers!
