I posted about this on EA Forum, but @EA_Darko has not replied yet. It has been 24 hours since I tried to login to Ultimate team on FC 26, but I still am not able to. When I launch a game, it takes too long for it to get to the Menu of FC 26. If I am lucky, I get there, and when I click on Ultimate Team mode - the screen switches to the TOTW screen and stays like that for like 5 minutes and than “Connection with Ultimate team servers is no possible right now” message shows up. I only managed to get to the UT menu once, but as soon as I clicked on Store to open a pack - game froze and kicked me out to the menu.
I though I am the only one with this issue, so I tried reinstalling the game, reconnecting WIFI, re-login to my account, renewing licence and many other things - still does not work. However, I found on EA forum and Reddit, that many others in Southern America have this issue, mostly in Arizona and Texas.
I cannot play the game that I payed $100 for early access, and the main reason for preordering is now gone, since I cannot play at all, and cannot get an advantage over those who did not preorder.
Also, it is important to mention that at the end of FC 25, there was the same exact issue, but I did not pay attention to that, since that was the end of the game and maybe servers were slowed down. But turned out that was the same issue as we have right now with FC26.
We need some help getting the game back on in Southern USA.
