@NastyBunch1thank you for investing a lot of time to write your thoughts here! I'm one of those who were affected (in my case, in M21 I had 2 DNFs caused by this '13th game'-bug and 2 DNFs caused by the 'not playing with my team resulting in a DNF anyways' so far. I'm roughly on the same path as last year, which ended with 29 DNFs in M20. yes, 29!! Accept the first 2-3 weeks I always qualified for the top 100 (sometimes top 10) on PC without facing a DNF. I calculated that the amount I lost due to server disconnect DNFs was about 9 million coins in Madden 20...
since in M21 I recognized even more bugs that affected my rewards in different modes (disconnects in H2H, Solo Drafts ending after one win, not all Solo Challenges are unlocked in Most Feared etc. etc.), I'm really frustrated that there is a bug every week (or every release of new content) that requires contacting EA help.
anyways, given all the bugs that affect Solo Battles I thought a lot about how to improve Solo Battles (I posted a lot on that here: Solo Battles - Feedback - Page 2 — EA Forums, if anybody is interested). if I was responsible for designing Solo Battles, I would ...
Solid write-up @NastyBunch1. I really don't think this is too much to ask for EA to do. The compensation is not something I will give up on as I have spent 20+ hours to earn rewards that would have taken me a max of 4. I am livid with the amount of time I have wasted on this mode and even more frustrated with the lack of clarity that comes from EA. I truly wish I could take the approach with these vague answers and utilize them in my professional life. Unfortunately, that would earn me a slip with a nice shade of pink. This issue has been going on for over a month and we still refuse to acknowledge it appropriately. Let alone through the widespread avenues that your company possesses. We just had a weekend full of H2H disconnects and guess how long that took them to acknowledge. 3-4 days! Post this through one of the mediums that you have at your disposal and that would limit some of our frustration. You're never going to make everybody happy, but this would be a step in the right direction. As you've probably guessed, I will not be happy until we have received the rewards that were STOLEN from us. I fully expect to be walking around with a forever curled lip. Surprise me!
@EA_BlueberryI just finished my 11th solo battle and got a "0" battle score screen after the game. This is usually what happens when I am about to get the glitch after I finish the 12th game, but it has not happened yet. I'm guessing that there isn't anything I can do to resolve this right?
I don't know... maybe I'll get lucky and won't get the glitch.
2nd time posting in this forum but 4th week the 13th game has not let me play. Photos below show I’d easily make top 100. 25,583 average per game this week. 2nd photo is scores from last week to show what area I’d be in. I’ve easily lost over a million in coins. Take a closer look at my first photo. I wonder if all of those other 12 game completed people got the glitch. What’s the percentage of players going thru this? My tactic is to always play all my Friday games in a row so I never leave the solo battle screen which used to work but not this time. We gonna get the cure for this bug before Covid? I’m taking bets
