PS5 MULTIPLAYER BUG
Buonasera, vorrei segnalare un problema che mi impedisce di utilizzare correttamente il multiplayer di F1 25 su PS5. Quando creo una lobby privata a invito nella modalità Gran Premio multigiocatore, io e i miei amici riusciamo a entrare regolarmente nella sessione, configurare la partita e scegliere le vetture. Tuttavia, dopo pochi secondi dall’inizio delle qualifiche, la sessione sembra separarci: continuiamo a giocare, ma gli altri partecipanti vengono sostituiti dall’intelligenza artificiale. Al termine delle qualifiche, la partita viene interrotta per numero insufficiente di giocatori. Il problema si è verificato anche giocando con più amici. Nonostante sia possibile entrare nella lobby, non riusciamo a completare una normale sessione multiplayer. Vorrei sapere se si tratta di un bug noto e se è prevista una soluzione. Ho scaricato il gioco tramite PlayStation Plus e ritengo che il multiplayer debba essere regolarmente utilizzabile. Lo stesso problema si presenta avviando una carriera due una volta che si entra in gara . Premetto che non possiedo l'espansione 2026 , ma credo che comunque il bug non sia legato a quello. Chiedo quindi assistenza per individuare e risolvere il problema. Grazie.
Vibrations turning off on controller
Randomly in online races, usually when someone in the lobby is lagging, all vibrations either reduce to a low setting or completely stop on PS5 and it makes the car extremely difficult to drive. A quick fix is to pause and un-pause the game, bringing back vibrations momentarily until they break again, usually within a lap. An easy fix would be to make vibrations client side if possible to avoid lag breaking them. This has been happening for the whole of F1 25, but since the 2026 DLC released it seems to have gotten worse. As far as I know this only affects PS5.
'connecting to online services' bug
The game hangs indefinitely on “connecting to online services” and also infinite-loads when entering sessions. Local reinstalls, cache clears, and updates have not fixed the issue across multiple months. There are community reports suggesting a full in-game mailbox can cause this. Because I cannot access the mailbox in-game (due to the infinite-loads), I’m unable to clear it manually. Could my EA cloud profile, online save data, mailbox data, or account sync data for F1 25 be fully reset or removed server-side? If so, how do I actually get in contact with someone at EA. Live chat is useless as I just get stuck talking to an AI bot that asks the same 2 questions before closing the chat.
F1 25 – EA Account Required / Cannot Connect to Online Services
Hi EA Team, I have the same issue that others reported a few months ago. When I try to play F1 25 on Steam, I get the "EA Account required" message, even though my Steam and EA accounts are properly linked. I can’t access any online features. Report code: ZVBM-SJSG-HXMC-TVDG Attached my DxDiag.txt as well. Thanks in advance for checking this out!Moza Haptics on Xbox Series X
Playing on Xbox Series X with a Moza R3 wheel and SR-P Lite pedals. I recently purchased Moza's haptic adapters for my pedals. Everything works great in their Pit House setup software when connected to my laptop using separate USB connections from the wheel and from the haptic connection component. However, if I switch those USBs to my Xbox, the game only registers my wheel. I can't find a way to get it to see the pedals if they're connected thru the haptic USB connector. Is there a way around this, like using a 2-into-1 USB connector, or are us Xbox users out of luck? Thanks,Co-op career desync and blocked: FIX URGENTLY!
Me (F1_gtFisichella) and my friend pippo100799 had recently started a co-op career with 16 races for the first season and last time we played until the 8th race at Silverstone. Today we login for starting the 9th race at Spa-Francorchamps, but we couldn't move forward because, since last time he logged out while in the silly season cutscene of midseason, it went back to his personal QG while i'm at the circuit on race weekend. The problem is that we can't advance to the sessions because he's stuck on QG and can't advance to the race weekend since in his interface there is no X button to advance (therefore, we can't race anymore). We tried everything from changing host to even expel my friend and inviting him back to career, but he still returns to QG without possibility to advance on race weekend. Looks like is a server problem since last time he logged out in the middle of cutscene while i went through all of it until the arrival on the track. Please fix it ASAP since we both want to continue the career since we're home for the holiday season. Thanks in advancecrossplay online lobbies

On Oct 14, 2026, F1 25 (Steam version, EA account Iam********, Windows 11 26H2) kept showing "Cannot connect to the F1 25 game services," and the EA app got stuck in a sign-in loop. I lost hours trying to fix it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the EA app several times and changed BIOS settings (Secure Boot on, CSM off). None of that helped. The cause turned out to be my Canon imageFORMULA R10 portable scanner, which shows up as a USB removable drive named "ONTOUCHLITE." As soon as I unplugged it and pressed Retry, the game connected right away, without a restart. Other players are reporting the same thing, and it looks like the anti-cheat stalls whenever removable USB storage is plugged in: https://steamcommunity.com/app/3059520/discussions/0/604165449110880896/ https://www.reddit.com/r/F1Game/comments/1l2d6kj/steam_ea_account_required_error_on_any_f1_game/ Please fix the anti-cheat and online check so a plugged-in USB storage device doesn't block online services. When something does block it, please show a clear error message instead of an endless sign-in loop. Thanks, Jeremy
EA App not recognizing F1 25 Steam license
I bought this game June 26, with high hopes of playing in preparation for the now released F1 movie Unfortunately, I kept running into this issue where the game doesn't recognizes my EA Account, and the EA App refuses to acknowledge my Steam license, despite the game being bought and installed legitimately through Steam. It keeps refusing access to online features, claiming it cannot connect to the EA Online servers. I have already done every step possible to troubleshoot, from re linking my EA and Steam account, reinstalling the EA App, verifying the Steam game files, running both apps as administrator, etcetera. It is also worth noticing I have contacted EA Support multiple times, and told this is a widespread issue affecting multiple F! 25 Steam players, not just me. Regardless, I was offered no fix, besides refunding the game and re-buying it via the EA App, which I think is an unacceptable solution because then why even bother offering EA games on Steam. Not wishing to be a nuisance, but I paid 74 USD for this game and DLC, and I can't access basic online features. IS there a way to re-sync the licenses manually? Or if there is an estimated time for a fix. Thanks in advanceF1 25 PS5 - Error Code PP65539 with Crossplay Enabled (Egypt - ISP "WE")
Hi EA Support Team, I am experiencing a persistent issue with F1 25 on PS5 where I cannot join any multiplayer lobbies if Crossplay is enabled. Whenever I try, I get the error code PP65539. If I disable Crossplay, the multiplayer works fine, but I can only play with other PS5 players. I live in Egypt, and my ISP is "WE" (Telecom Egypt). I have done extensive network troubleshooting on my end to ensure the issue is not from my router. Here is what I have tried: Changed DNS to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1). Checked NAT Type: I have NAT Type 2 (Full Cone NAT). UPnP is Enabled and successfully mapping the required ports for the PS5. Checked router firewall: DMZ is off, and WAN Access Control is clear (no blocking rules). Tested on a completely different network using a Mobile Hotspot, but the exact same error persists. Since my local network settings are fully optimized and the issue happens across different connection types, it seems to be a routing issue between EA servers and ISPs in Egypt specifically regarding Crossplay matchmaking. Could you please investigate this routing/server issue? We really want to enjoy the full crossplay experience. Thank you.
