FC 26 Ultimate Team is actually Unplayable
To preface I would like to provide some background information on the matter: I am on Xbox Series S where within Network Settings: I am on wired ethernet, have Open NAT, All Services Available, and on your very own "https://help.ea.com/en/help-tools/ea-connection-report/" website you have my connection rating for the last 6-7 matches as either 96, 96, 98 or even 99 (out of 100). The "hilarious" thing, besides your incompetence with this game, is I got disconnected from every last one of those matches. I was winning in all of them, and the "most incredible" thing is that for all of those instances I got the message saying "The match is under review, you will return to UT home" - except I wasn't, I was kicked out of the game mode and got hit with a "Connection to ultimate team is not available" or "Connection to EA Servers is not available". From then I'd be able to pretty much get back on the game right away, only to see that despite winning when getting disconnected and you supposedly "reviewing the results", I got 4 Loses in a row. Now every time I log in to Ultimate Team, it takes about a few minutes before the game mode kicks me out yet another time. I've reset my router, restarted the Xbox, cleared the cache, literally every troubleshoot you could think of - I've done it. And yet this still happens. I even uninstalled the game & then reinstalled it once again. Only to find out that my internet connection was pretty dang fast, FC 26 with about ~55gb was installed in under 10min. So my internet clearly isn't the issue here. This isn't just a new issue either, it's been going on for about a month now. Every single **bleep** weekend I get at least 4-5 disconnects loses in Champions. What even is the point of playing anymore when you automatically know you're going to lose 1/3 of the games regardless? The past week, I've had to use my Web App for SBCs, because your incompetent servers and connectivity doesn't even let me log in to UT long enough. Every time it takes so long to "download content" or "check online squads" -> the result? disconnected as soon as i get in or all my cards show up without cosmetics or are greyed out. Fix your **bleep** servers, I've been playing this game mode for over a decade now and somehow with more "intelligent technologies" and "advanced innovations", the past 2 iterations FC 25 (towards the end) and FC 26 Ultimate Team have been absolutely unplayable due to your stupid server issues. But sure, let's release more store packs right? Get it right. And look at all the other posts/ comments in the past 2 weeks from the community. You claim to listen to us right? Prove it and actually read the dozens and dozens and dozens of people getting the same horrendous experience as I. Then compensate us fairly, either give us our games on Champions back so we can have an actual experience playing the game mode, or just give us all of our money back honestly. We haven't even reached TOTY yet, im basically going to assume that none of us will even be able to open the freaking game then. Get your act together for crying out loud, this has by far been the absolute worst Ultimate team experience I've ever had.130Views0likes4CommentsController Buttons Not Working Only in FC 26 – Urgent Help Needed
Since yesterday evening, while playing Squad Battles, my square, circle, and triangle buttons stopped responding. The only button that works in-game is X. I’ve restarted my PlayStation multiple times, and I’ve also done a full hard reset, but nothing has changed. What’s confusing is that the controller works perfectly on every other game ..... square, circle, and triangle all function normally outside of FC 26. But as soon as I go into FC 26, especially Squad Battles, those buttons stop working again. I’ve already lost three matches because of this, and I can’t risk entering FUT Champs with the issue still happening. It’s incredibly frustrating that there’s no way to directly speak to someone at EA to get real-time support. Instead, I’m left posting here and hoping someone from EA sees this and can help. If anyone has experienced this or knows a fix, I’d really appreciate your guidance. I’ve already registered for FUT Champs, so I’m hoping this can be resolved as soon as possible.7Views0likes0CommentsUnfairly got banned Case #229343516

As per title, since the last patch i am unable to play the game. Within 60 second of loading up it crashes to desktop. No error messages are presented. However I have found the message in the event viewer. "File System Filter 'EAAntiCheat' (Version 10.0, 2025-10-26T20:32:34.000000000Z) unloaded successfully."

Hi guys. My FC26 PS5 and PS4 versions keep telling me "You have lost your online connection...", or "Sorry, it appears the EA servers are currently down..." but my internet is stable and I'm able to play all other games as normal. I tried a few things but nothing has worked. Is there anyone else experiencing this or does anyone have a solution. I would really appreciate the assistance thank you.238Views2likes1CommentStop releasing games, it's not your thing.
Yesterdey, in every match in the ''Ultimate Gauntlet 4'', at the end of the match I get kicked out of UT and the game is not counted, (EA servers were unable to process your request. Please try again later.) 3 consecutive won games = 3 disconnects. Surprisingly, now I can't even log into UT. I think, the game won't launch tomorrow, but I got ahead of you and deleted it.123Views3likes8CommentsConnecting to ultimate team is not possible at the moment!
CONNECTING TO ULTIMATE TEAM IS NIT POSSIBLE AT THE MOMENT. YOU WILL NOW BE RETURNED TO THE MAIN MENU. This has now been ongoing for 3 days. I’ve tried all troubleshooting guides I’ve seen online and I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the game still won’t let me play! I’ve logged into my other EA account and that works fine. Just my account won’t work.32Views1like1Comment'Connecting to UT not possible at the moment'
After 2 entries in ultimate gauntlet 3 during my next entry where I won game 1, lost game 2 the round 3 game would not progress regardless of if I won the game or lost. During my 3rd round game I would get disconnected during the game and returned to the matchmaking screen where I could play round 3 again as if the game was never played. However, even if I won the match and completed it / forced a quit from my opponent. The game would not count and kick me out of ultimate team completely where I would have to load back in again. This started on the 30th October. The issue remained when I attempted the same mode on the 31st. Other modes such as squad battles were working normally. On November 1st, the issue continued so I decided to go into a gauntlet round match and quit the game by closing application. The hope was that this would end my current gauntlet entry and allow me to start a new one. As I reloaded the game I found I could not even load into Ultimate team completely. If I tried I would receive the error message 'Connecting to ultimate team is not possible at the moment. You will now be returned to the main menu'. This error message appeared all day on November 1st (and still as of now) even after sharing my complaints to EA through an online chat and forums (where I found others with the same issue) EA have given no response or solution about this case. An online EA agent suggested it to be my system software or ISP issue. However, I cleared my PS5 console cache, rebuilt the database and attempted to load into UT using my phones hotspot. None of these steps solved the issue. I have also deleted and reinstalled the FC 26 game on my PS5 which also did not solve anything. I used my second account and loaded UT on FC 26 and this was successful. The second account had no team created until today. Also the second account is on the same console as the account I can’t load UT on. This confirms the problem to be an EA account issue and not an internet or software issue of the console. Another thing to note is that after the failed login to UT. I am unable to open the companion or web app as both claim I am signed in on another device even though this is not the case. After 3 hours the companion app does allow me to log back in which I discovered late evening of November 1st after just waiting. This bug has caused me to miss key SBC’s for the Lewis Skelly objective and also meant I was unable to continue playing the gauntlet or squad battles modes over Saturday. This is no fault of my own and EA must make an effort to compensate players who could not do SBC’s or earn rewards in gauntlet, squad battles, champions, rivals games due to being locked out of UT mode.
