Broken broken broken game. so broken. Every. SINGLE. DAY. There is a new glitch to report on this forum. STOP RELEASING PATCHES THAT HAVEN'T BEEN TESTED.

If I'm facing someone in rivals and I am winning, they will somehow force the syncing glitch to force me to quit the game so they win and I lose rivals points. Maybe this is just them leaving the game, but I get the syncing error regardless.

I am expecting compensation for this. I am tired of coming onto this forum every other day to report a new problem and then have nothing be done about it 80% of the time. I am tired of losing rivals points when I am winning cause you guys cannot have stable servers or adequate anti-cheat. I am tired of loosing Hut rush points because the devs forgot to code in the a variable for a tie game or setup the shootout. I am tired of coming here every single day to report problems that are literally losing me games and points just for you guys to say "thanks for taking the time to upload this, we'll forward it to the devs for you." 

Can EA show some appreciation for those who actually take the time to report the infinite amount of bugs in this game? there are so many bugs in this game that I could make several posts a day but that is unrealistic, so I try to report the more major stuff to do my part to improve this game. I don't need some reward for my efforts but I at least expect to be credited back the significant amount of rivals points and other things I've lost because of the plethora of critical errors in this game. I paid $100+ for a game that consistently disconnects me, has major input lag half the online games, and allows cheaters to force sync loops to win games...

  • Just happened to me on PS4 sitting on syncing… after I was up 3-0 in 1st period… paused… then I’m guessing just left or shut-off system so I’m stuck and I dunno I guess take the loss?? Ridiculous!!!

  • @Chaseinator5 This literally just happened to me TWICE within the past 30 minutes. Same exact thing in the video that you posted. There’s no way it’s just the servers. It’s for sure intentional from the opposing team. First game I’m up 3-0 and second game I’m up 3-0 in the FIRST and opponent pauses so I resume and then the sync glitch happens. This needs to be fixed in 23. I don’t even know if I should buy it.

    Hey, @CDHhoCkey15 

    We're not aware of any method that can be used to force the syncing glitch in online play. We were experiencing an interruption with our online services earlier so chances are excellent, it was related to that.
