As you see, all reports on the same problem. STILL is a problem.
When I go into the game and straight to invites it gets me into the communicating with online services for eternity, WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO DO ANYTING. So I have to kill the game.
Proof in the video. Fix please!

Do you have crossplay enabled? It may be worth turning this off to see if it helps
Yes I have it enabled. I need it to play in the league I play in. So there would be no point in disabling it.
It has to be said F125 is absolutely rubbish for online connection and disconnecting issues more than any other version.
I played F123 two player career with not one single disconnection problem, absolutely perfect every session throughout an entire season.
F125 is rubbish! Communicating with online services all the time and now also experiencing the dreaded "Host migration issues" It's so poor that this is happening in 2025 and needs fixing!
And before anyone comments both internet connections are using ultra fast and reliable full fibre with no issues occurring on anything else.
It's clearly an issue with EA servers. Beyond poor.
I think in this case it's maybe be more of a menu bug because when I go to time trial I am able to see invites. So to actually get into a lobby I first need to go time trial and then I can accept that invite. Which is a lame workaround.
i play this game for a month or so. this error occurs since 2 days ago. idk how to get rid of it. before that everything was working fine.
Community ManagerHey everyone, thanks for reporting that. I've passed the information on to the team!
Community ManagerThis problem has been in the game for a while now. Sometimes I can't even race in the leagues. I get an invite, and when I accept, it gets stuck communicating with the server indefinitely. Even during races, sometimes it keeps showing "communicating with the server" until you disconnect. This problem is unbearable. Some of my friends have already given up on the game because they can't communicate with the online services.
Deleting all messages in the ingame mailbox resolves this issue in most cases. Hope this helps anyone who is struggling with this as a previous poster as already made it aware its been a bug since 23 atleast. Menus should be sharper doing this also.
