Cheating Program Causing Player Control Disruption (Disconnect Bug)

Hello EA FC Mobile Team,

 

I would like to report an issue that I encountered during a recent match, which I am confident was caused by the use of a cheating program, specifically related to a disconnect or control disruption bug.

 

During approximately the first 20 minutes of the match, I was unable to properly control my players. The only action available to me was tapping on the pitch to pass the ball. After this period, full player control returned to normal and the match proceeded without further issues.

 

I have been playing FC Mobile for a long time and have never experienced this behavior before, which strongly suggests that this was not a normal gameplay or network-related issue.

 

To clarify my setup during the match:

  • I was using a wired LAN connection
  • Wi-Fi and cellular data were completely turned off

 

Given these conditions and my long-term experience with the game, I believe this issue was not caused by connection instability on my side, but rather by intentional misuse of a cheating program by the opposing player.

 

I have already submitted a report through the in-game reporting system after the match. I am reposting this here to:

  1. Request clarification on the possible cause of this issue
  2. Ask whether this type of exploit or cheating behavior is currently known or under investigation
  3. Confirm that, if cheating is verified, the offending player has received or will receive appropriate disciplinary action

 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I appreciate any feedback or explanation you can provide.

 

Kind regards,

  • It's hard to tell from the description without seeing the footage, but what you described does sound like one of the cheats/exploits being discussed on some social media/forums.
    I'd say two things, if it happens again, capture a video immediately and post it here on your own thread and also report the player via the in-game menu, as you already did in this instance.
    As for the exploit/cheating questions, EA is unlikely to comment in detail, no devs ever want to discuss exploits until fixes are deployed. Also, all players are treated as innocent until proven guilty and generally, naming and shaming is frowned upon. Having said that, such detail is typically forwarded to devs.

    Your setup is a bit odd, or rather unusual, though. You said that you are using a wired LAN with Wifi/Mobile disabled, so are you using a USB-C to Ethernet adapter with an OTG cable? Is that just to provide stable connectivity, or are you also using other devices like a controller?
    Just curious, as it's a lot of messing about for a mobile game heh, I guess it's a tablet rather than a phone too? Doesn't sound like you us an emulator either, anyway, lmk.
