Auction Room bugs

There seem to be an inordinate number of bugs with the auction room:

1. You are the highest bidder, the clock winds down, and keeps going into negative numbers, no other bids show but when the auction closes, someone else has won the player

2. You can have several highest bids at the same time; when the clock winds down, the Highest Bidder status changes to Pending. Without changing to reflect a higher bid, the auction closes and someone else has won the auction.

3. You hit refresh and items are listed and already show as sold before a bid can be made

4. You hit refresh and screen upon screen upon screen of players become available and disappear in seconds

5. Right now there are multiple listings of a player called Matt Milano (80 OVR). Some have bids on them and others do not. However, whenever you try to bid on any one of the listings, the auction room refuses to accept them. The same happens if you try to buy it immediately -and the listing remains afterwards.

This has been happening for weeks if not months (apart from Matt Milano - which I’ve only noticed for a few days)

  • @Tabs007  I've had some but not all of these issues.  Mine are the negative clock and SOLD items immediately after refreshing.  I haven't seen it written from EA but I have read that there is a three minute refresh rate or something similar in the Auction House whereby sold items and new items do not necessarily reload immediately.  As for the clock winding down, understand that with the server demand worldwide EA incurs in its AHs, they can't push constant updates as soon as a new bid is processed.  My strategy is to keep refreshing every three seconds on the bid clock to keep an eye on my targets.

    They need to find a solution to make it work. Pressing refresh take up too much time - all the more so if you are monitoring several bids at the same time.

    Maybe only allowing people with the bid screen open to keep bidding would be a good compromis. It wouldn't help with multiple auctions but it would make individual auction work properly.
