Hey Everyone,
would it be possible to try the following steps depending on your platform?
PlayStation:
- Clear the systems cache (Close the game completely > Turn off the console > Wait 30-60 seconds > Restart and Relaunch)
- Verify you signed into your PSN account
- Check for updates
- Restore Licence
- Try the steps in our Connection and Advance Connection Guides
- Open your PS5 NAT Type
- Change DNS settings (You can use the public google DNS primary: 8.8.8.8, secondary: 8.8.4.4, unless there is a different DNS you would rather use)
- Entering Safe Mode and Rebuild your PS database
PC:
- Repair/Verify your game based on which client you are launching from
- EA App - Repair (My Collection > Tile Dots > Repair)
- EGS - Repair (Library > Tile dots > Manage > Verify)
- Steam - Verify in your library
- EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery)
- Connection and Advance Connection Guides
- Check for other applications that may be limiting EA App or Game performance
- Run the System File Checker tool then Check for Windows and GPU updates
- Check Drivers, Default to High-Performance GPU: Troubleshooting Graphics issues
- Restart your device in Clean Boot mode, then just try running the client and game
@EA Illum
Although I already assumed this generic guidance would not work I decided to have some integrity and do it all anyways before responding. As a PC user I have done everything asked (yet again) to no avail and NO FIX. THIS IS AN EA SERVER SIDE ISSUE, NOT OURS. How do I know this? I pre-ordered and had been playing PRIOR to EA'S Friday morning half-baked launch day "patch". Of course I had to fix the EA anti-cheat issue first and make graphical adjustments to get it to run smoothly, not lag and stutter but before this "patch" that BROKE ONLINE FRANCHISES, the game work/played just fine. EA broke this with that patch. It is their issue. Either revert that freaking patch, actually get someone in to troubleshoot this unplayable game or 100% refund all of us that have been unable to play online franchise since Friday. PLEASE. TYVM.

I'm experiencing the same thing. Every time I try to advance a week or upgrade staff I get disconnected from the server. I've tried everything suggested on the threads and tried everything I could find on youtube to no avail. I've come to conclusion this is an EA issue.
- 2 years ago@Mow-Less-Ted Any of us with intelligence and reasoning skills know this is EA's fault and issue since their Fri. launch day "patch" but all we hear are the crickets...
