The game was freezing at the title screen before for me, but a few days ago it just started working again. I can race against other people from around the world now in public sessions. Although I did lose connection to the EA servers mid game yesterday. That could have been due to poor internet connection at the time though ?

It's possible it's due to poor internet but I doubt that's why you disconnected mid game, this has happen to me also were it would disconnect me from EA servers mid game, and it has happen to others from what I've read on other forums.
Well if anyone wants to add me on xbox and to try to play private session for rivals if I feel like it it or on it just message me my gt is LeeryUncles, also I did find out it only goes to 6 players so I kinda need to see who will stay in game or who won't stay for that long

Still waiting for that match with you and @MephilestheDank. You know me ready when you are! 🙂
Ok. That's interesting. The first time it worked for me a few days ago, I had a stable connection for the whole time that I was playing, until I personally manually logged out. So no problems at all during that whole session. The next time I logged in (which was the one I told you about initially) I lost the connection mid game. So like you said, it could be the servers. Although where I live I don't have stable internet (I'm only using wifi hotspot from my phone), so it could be that too. There was also some lag in the game as well, like pursuit tech not activating straight away with 1 or 2 second delay. Same with nitrous. I was still grateful to be able to get online anyway. I hope it works again for my future sessions. I wonder are EA trying to fix the server issues, because I haven't had the game that long (bought in the Need For Speed Ultimate Bundle for 20 Euros) and the first time it worked, but then all the times after that it froze on the title screen until only a few days ago when it started working again ?
Its part of the syncing process with the servers that causes it to crash which should be obvious because the offline method works fine.

Nah its just the server since it disconnects while in a match, no syncing is happening during that time

In your case the issues could be caused by either your internet or the server, but either way the EA server do have an problems which unfortunately they wont fix.
kind of hoping they would. rivals is the most fun nfs game i've played in a while.
