Hey EA_Aljo
No idea, it seems to be the case with multiple people in my friend group. We have most of our group on PS5 playing out or around Toronto ON, and some on XBOX. We have tried literally every single matchmaking option you have in the game - i.e Allow drop in goalie, dont allow drop in goalie, strict, relaxed, etc etc. Crossplay IS on - we havent tried turning it off, should we?
Other then that I dont have much more to go off on other then I would love to play goalie and cant because it always runs aprox 5-6 mins then the queue errors out. Ive managed to get into 1 game as a human goaltender since installing on Friday.
Again info for me specifically
PS5, Toronto (use relaxed setting but also tried strict), NAT is open (never have issues finding games when i switch to RW or any other position), Crossplay = Enabled.
Cheers

Community ManagerAre you able to find games as a goalie in drop-ins?
Nope!
I am a human drop in goalie and it’s completely broken. An average of 1 game I actually get to play per every 1.5 hours of matchmaking. I usually get to play 2 games a night, usually against a real goalie in the other team too and they are great games usually close battles and I have fun. But match making for 3 hours just to play 2 games is freaking ridiculous. Players will hop out of a lobby with you in it if you are a goalie because they know it’ll be broken. They finally make the mechanics more smooth and less fidgety, but didn’t spend 3 minutes on matchmaking. Makes chel basically unplayable for human goalies which sucks :/It sucks to know that this has been an issue before 26 it was the exact same issue in 25 yet EA couldn’t do anything about it and decided to release 26 broken as well??
