I'm not sure what else to say, but the fact that internet is required or literally everything except for quick play is ridiculous. Back it up to the cloud, sure. Stop me mid round because I lose internet connection is literally stupid.
I paid $70 to own the game and to be able to play it on my own terms.
It was over $100 Canadian for me after tax, and my connection has been dropping a lot this week. It's crazy that it's interrupting us mid-round in a single-player "offline" experience.
EA has falsely described this as an "offline mode" when it's clearly an online mode. I've never seen this from an EA Sports game before. As a long-time EA customer there was no reason for me to assume this was an online-only single-player experience. (Meanwhile, every time FIFA 23 updates, the anticheat won't let me launch the game that I also paid $100 for. I literally had to go into my computer BIOS settings, which is an unprecedented level of invasive security in PC gaming .)
