Pc disconnects

[fluid eagle]

Getting constant disconnects on pc in game. I get “match under review.” Seems to be a common problem

[wise forum]

Yeah me too i have same

[glad nimbus]

Reset your ea fc settings and global settings in nvidia app

[rocky moth]

+1

[sleek idol]

+1

[halcyon violet]

this worked for you yeah?

[glad nimbus]

There was one game after I did that where it kicked me but after that I was fine

[halcyon violet]

alright sweet i’ll give this a try. am i resetting in game or on the ea app

[glad nimbus]

In the nvidia app

[nimble tiger]

Placeboz effect @glad nimbus EA servers have nothing to do with GPU settings

[glad nimbus]

Don’t think it’s ea servers cuz not every pc player having the issue

But could be placebo because one game all of our pc players got kicked and then after that we were all fine

So maybe they fixed something in the background last night but not sure

Might as well try it

Only played a few games tho so small sample size

[nimble tiger]

Happening since last night. Only completed a game rn by switching matchmaking to solo.
And no, it seems to be a general PC issue based on EA help forums, fc 26 discussion chats in discord and reddit

Also massive ping spikes , like from my usual 20 ms to 1048 ms in the game, so I’m sure ea tryna fix something , just have to wait

[halcyon violet]

i haven’t been having lag spikes, yet the issue persists. i’ll see if resetting global settings helps, trying now

[rocky moth]

pc cant play and this is the 3rd random post on twitter about the patch without mentioning anything about the problem on pc

[glad nimbus]

We all also updated squads manually so could try doing that

But I know it’s not every pc player because we had pc players on who have had no issues at all

[craggy hull]

This is an actual bug. In rush, if there's an offsides or foul you get dc'd

[glad nimbus]

Even after you reset nvidia settings?

[craggy hull]

Yep.

Its server side

[glad nimbus]

Try updating squads manually that’s another thing we did that seemed to help

[craggy hull]

Ill give it another go.

I know how to test right away if it works. just stand offsides in rush... smh

[glad nimbus]

All I know is I was getting kicked every game and then all of a sudden I wasn’t

[glad nimbus]

lol

[craggy hull]

If you're bored, try it for me 😿

if I can get fouled / offsides are working in rush after the squad update, ily

[halcyon violet]

yup. fixed it

[glad nimbus]

Was also gonna say I think I only played clubs friendlies when I wasn’t getting kicked so if friendlies weren’t affected by the issue I’ve just been talking bs the whole time

[craggy hull]

oooh your talking clubs 🙁

[somber briar]

So yall are saying reset nvidia settings, global settings and doing a manual squad update will fix it?

[glad nimbus]

Worked for me and seemingly for @halcyon violet as well

[craggy hull]

I doubt nvidia settings are involved here. But maybe manual squads? I've reset global settings a few times and it hasn't fixed anything.

[glad nimbus]

Yeah I haven’t tested fut yet

[somber briar]

Can you test fut? Just to see

[glad nimbus]

I can but not for a while can’t play rn

Probably will get on and try in like an hour

[smoky holly]

still no fix cant play any mode on fut either

[obsidian vortex]

we gotta be happy to have the menu to spent our coins and buy FUT PONITS . NOT

haha

[nimble tiger]

Change matchmaking to Solo for Rivals/Drafts etc and see once. Its an EA issue for FUT Rivals Drafts Rush modes for now , server side .

[mossy inlet]

and for clubs as well...

[craggy hull]

😥

[mossy inlet]

feels bad 🙁
and there is no acknowledgment yet from EA whatsoever, very frustrating to be honest

[craggy hull]

100%, its one thing to botch an update and quickly get ahead of it and let users know that its being worked on...

but just radio silence for 24 hours is sad af.

[mossy inlet]

exactly that! if there was a workaround to do every match, i wouldnt mind at all but radio silence is crazy

[icy oar]

I think that this issue also happened last year.

[obsidian vortex]

they do not care I guess

its Friday now . weekend

[icy oar]

But if it will happen on console it will be resolved very quickly

[obsidian vortex]

obv

[icy oar]

Yup, and it means that champs are starting in like 1 hour and we cannot play

[obsidian vortex]

There is no Champs for us IG

[halcyon violet]

Update: worked for a couple games then started happening again. I’d imagine you’d have to do a reset every time until the bug is fixed

[icy oar]

Reset what? Game?

[nimble tiger]

You clear the cache et all, set matchmaking to solo and then try. Worked for me for two games. But those two games were the smoothest I played btw.

[stuck field]

I have been kicked out of all of 5 Rush matches I played last night. I got the wins and points but was kicked and my teammates continued playing the game to the end. I have't tried rivals or champs cause I am scared of being kicked and get a loss

[covert saffron]

control pannel or the actual app

[glad nimbus]

App is easier I think

[covert saffron]

How do I do it on app?

I know how to in control panel but not the app itself

[mossy inlet]

EA acknowledge the issue finally in one of the steam discussions, i cant link it here but EA_Vendcera answered in the subject * is Anyone keep getting disconnected middle of the match after the patch ?*

[glad nimbus]

what he say

[glad nimbus]

click on graphics on the side tab

then global settings and hit restore

[gentle arch]

same here

3 dc in 4 matches lmao

[nimble zodiac]

+1 Game is unplayable

[ionic shadow]

@glad nimbus bro this has nothing to do with GPU settings, if you're not having this issue anymore then good for you. Don't tell people it's due to their settings when it's obviously a bug caused by the latest patch.

@glad nimbus technically if this was a gpu setting problem then the whole game will crash. Don't give ea any excuse, FIX THE FREAKING GAME EA!!! 😤

[glad nimbus]

@ionic shadow

I never said I was sure that’s what it was bro chill

[glad nimbus]

How is that giving ea an excuse? No 💩 it’s a bug from the patch I never said it’s the user’s fault or pc fault

[ionic shadow]

It's not a gpu problem! Period.

[glad nimbus]

dont see you suggesting anything that works?

[stoic hound]

Same. Disconnected 4 out of 5 games.

[gusty spruce]

Same also

[versed chasm]

Its sad how they havent even acknowledged this. Shows again how little they care about PC players.

[ionic shadow]

Uhhh that's not my job? So let the devs fix it?

[glad nimbus]

Average fifa community member ^

[hushed badger]

🤝

[ionic shadow]

Touch some grass and let people do their jobs homie.

[glad nimbus]

If I find a temporary fix I’m gonna share it with everyone 😂

[indigo latch]

has ea fixed the problem yet?

[sturdy wasp]

nope ea don't care about pc

[restive escarp]

Saudi, can you hire new Devs that won't mess up stuff that was never an issue?

[covert saffron]

Facts bro thank you for trying to help me dawg

[shell ridge]

lets all report our issues, if they see many post here maybe ea will start to do their job. i have same issue as you have reported since wednesday. Every single online mqtch like rivals, rush, i have disconnection in the middle of the game. i tried re install game, remove updates from game menu, install updates from game menu, it does not fix. Now i am trying to desinstall ea app and nvidia app / drivers, also i cleaned remaining ea folders. Iwill let you know if i could fix this....

i am located in japan by the way, and i have another friend playing on pc who had this issue too, but now he said it was okay... but he.did nothing special

[glad nimbus]

I know the fix for clubs if anyone is interested.

At least for club friendlies

As long as you reset your squads and update them manually it works

Before every game to be safe

[glad nimbus]

Gotchu bro

[shell ridge]

it did not worked. i saw a new update also from ea, and was hopping for a fix but no...

[mossy inlet]

its been reported in every social possible.. on twitter, ea forums, discord, steam forum... at least its been recognized by EA

[shell ridge]

if they have basic monitoring of their app, they should find something is wrong ... having alert and people workong on it ...

[worn vale]

appearently they are just massively retaerded

coz nothing is happening since 3 days

xd

[main verge]

1.11 update came out and they didn't fix it lol

[halcyon violet]

thats what im saying this company needs to start backing its f*cking ideas up if they want to keep a solid pc playerbase

im going to try verifying file integrity

[west arch]

doesnt work

[obsidian vortex]

what did they patch today? im still getting DC after DC

[halcyon violet]

thats what im wondering. they didn't even fix the controller disconnecting issue

i lowkey shouldve just got the game on my ps5

[obsidian vortex]

they dont care about us PC players bcs 99.9 % plays on console

[frigid vale]

Tried via VPN and 10 games without dc so far.

[west arch]

problem is i can't even get a refund now, we've been scammed at this point

[obsidian vortex]

there wont even be a compensation

or they give us 78+x2

[west arch]

bold of you to assume they are actually going to fix it before it fixes itself by accident with the next title update in 20 days

[obsidian vortex]

true

[halcyon violet]

what vpn u using bro? i tried proton and it isnt working

[lunar anchor]

try using a proxy made for games, like exitlag

[halcyon violet]

alright thanks

[lunar anchor]

exitlag has a 3-day trial if i remember correctly

[halcyon violet]

yeah it does im pretty sure if i keep looking i can get a 1 month deal

[worn vale]

ikr..

so, asking after 2 hours once more. is it fixed?

[clever idol]

not fixed

[glad nimbus]

One of the discords I’m in posted this

Until EA makes changes to fix here is a solution that all PC players must do before Monday.

EA SPORTS FC 26 PC FIX – COMMUNITY GUIDE

if your game keeps crashing after kickoff loading or in drop in follow this full reset fix

1 open EA App and uninstall the game completely
2 go to this path
C:\Users\gamer\AppData\Local
delete the folders EA SPORTS FC 26 and EADesktop
3 then go to
C:\Users\gamer\AppData\Roaming
delete the folders EA and Electronic Arts
4 restart your PC
5 open EA App again and reinstall the game normally
6 after install launch the game it will rebuild all cache and config files fresh

this method clears all broken data that causes the common PC bug where the game crashes during cutscenes goals or kickoff it basically forces EA App and FC 26 to create new clean files.

[cold sluice]

any news on an update coming out??

[clever idol]

Nope unfortunately complete radio silence from EA

[mossy inlet]

did that work for you though?

[delicate compass]

gonna try now man

[copper patio]

someone lmk if this works

[glad nimbus]

Haven’t tried it

[delicate compass]

this works for me

[glad nimbus]

Awesome I’m gonna go ahead and do it too

[delicate compass]

can i change the graphic settings or it will crash the game?

[glad nimbus]

Have no idea. I don’t think graphics have to do with it because I changed some settings last night and was able to finish club friendly games

[delicate compass]

thanks cant stanf 60hz and motion blur

[delicate compass]

I just got DC

[glad nimbus]

So ig it’s temporary fix lol my game is downloading rn

At least it worked for over an hour 😅

[worn vale]

i think i got an easy solution
its easy and i played a rush in ultimate team, every pc player got kicked but not me
all i did is go to settings -> teams -> update
idk if i was lucky
or this actually helps
idk

[quick crown]

Nah did that other day and still got kicked few games later. Nothing is a permanent fix

[worn vale]

well

nvm then

[main verge]

Did this work tho?

[worn vale]

bro this bug being in for 5 days is an absolute mind blow

[glad nimbus]

@main verge

[main verge]

Alr

Ig i'll reinstall..

[glad nimbus]

i reinstalled but havent played yet

[ionic shadow]

Nothing works, tried it all. Playing battlefield instead.

[short tundra]

PC is still getting disconnect on Clubs Matches

[glad nimbus]

yea i did the "fix" and am still getting kicked out of games

club friendlies are the only thing i dont get kicked from for whatever reason

[serene sandal]

try exitlag its free for 3 days i used it and 5 rivals games no dc

[pine vigil]

I was having this issue weeks ago, I had to reinstall network drivers and turn off the power down settings on the driver. Here is a summary of my testing and fix.

Root cause: local packet loss from a corrupted Intel I211 NIC driver. Even minimal upstream dropouts break EA FC 26’s UDP session, which can kick you from matches or even menus.

What we did:
1. Verified packet loss with ping 192.168.1.1 -t (saw timeouts).
2. Confirmed router and cabling were fine using a Mac (0 % loss).
3. Uninstalled the Intel I211 adapter in Device Manager → rebooted → Windows reinstalled a clean driver.
4. Disabled these settings under NIC Properties → Power Management and Advanced:
• “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.”
• “Energy Efficient Ethernet.”
• Set “Speed & Duplex” to 1 Gbps Full Duplex.
5. Retested pings to router and 8.8.8.8 → 0 % loss.

Result:
Connection is now fully stable; no disconnects or input lag in FC 26.

If you’re dropping even in menus, test your local link before blaming EA or your ISP. Any upstream packet loss will kill the session immediately.

Hope this helps anyone who may have had my issue too.

[hot isle]

PC Fix:

1. Disable V-Sync
2. Borderless display
3. 120FPS

Nvidia Settings:

1. Goto Manage 3D settings, Program settings add FC26.exe
2. Set low latency to ultra
3. Set powermanagement to preffer maxium performance
   4.Turn vertical sync off
4. Set your frame limit to 3 under your current (example, 144Hz would be 141Hz)

Window Settings:

1. Settings, Gaming, GameMode Turn on
2. Settings, Gaming, Game Bar turn it off
3. Settings, Syetem, Display, Graphic Settings enable
4. Settings, Personalization, Colours, Turn off transparenecy

Make sure to update graphic drivers.

This might seem like alot of steps, ive just done all of this and it actually works lmao, I dunno how, I dunno why, but it does.

[main verge]

Exactly what i have, strange.

[cinder hedge]

This makes no sense, because the disconnects only occur in Rivals, Rush and Clubs. Champs is unaffected.

[cinder hedge]

Makes no sense because there are no issues in Champs.

[ionic shadow]

Hey boys, I turned cross play off and it seems to be working fine.

[somber briar]

even rivals?

[sleek notch]

Keep getting disconnected from Rivals, at this point I won't make it in time for rewards..

Any fixes?

@boreal sorrel

[eager ingot]

Do champions work even if I have crossplay turned on or do I have to turn it off?

[serene sandal]

work with crossplay on

but gameplay is shiiiiit

slow af

[eager ingot]

ufff okay thanks

[serene sandal]

delay but at least u can grab some wins for rewards xd

[eager ingot]

Yeah i need wins for some rewards

[halcyon violet]

the cache clearance seems to have worked. two games without a dc, we’ll see how it goes

[ionic shadow]

Rivals?

[halcyon violet]

yup. haven’t dc’d once in 5 games

[ionic shadow]

What cache clearance are you referring to? Sorry

[halcyon violet]

appdata -> roaming -> delete electronic arts and EA

then appdata -> local -> delete ea sports fc and something else beginning with ea which i forgot

[ionic shadow]

Yeah, it didn't work for me when I tried it.

Thanks tho

[halcyon violet]

no worries bro hope it works soon

[halcyon violet]

oh yh try playing with every other app closed

[prime tree]

We need to accept this is on EA and there isn’t some work around

[halcyon violet]

i mean i fixed it for myself

haven’t had a disconnection in hours

[versed chasm]

Didnt work

It keeps saying im no longer synced with the game

I updated squads too

[strong grotto]

Hoooow

[strong grotto]

I dont have the files like that

u got the game on ea or steam?

[strong grotto]

When i do that i cant open the game again and i need to re install

[charred warren]

This worked for me guys, managed all my champs games and a few rush games with no dc's

ty @hot isle

[hot isle]

❤️

[cinder hedge]

1. there were no disconnect issues with champs.
2. Rush will work, until someone commits a foul or foul for offside. Then it crashes.

[cold sluice]

Didn’t work for me unfortunately

Still no fix is insane

Champs wasn’t an issue just everything else from Rivals to Clubs

[charred warren]

There were fouls and offsides though, that's what was odd. In the moment I was like here we go and a few got disconnected but I didn't

Could just but luck but I'll report back later when I try rivals

[cinder hedge]

ffs, not allowed to post links to EA forums?

1. Close everything
   Close FC 26, Steam, and the EA App.

2. Delete the FC26 folder
   Go to: C:\Users\YOUR_WINDOWS_USERNAME\AppData\Local

If you don’t see AppData:
File Explorer → View → Show → Hidden items

Delete this folder: "EA SPORTS FC 26"
(From the bin too. This does NOT delete the game, just corrupted network sync files.)

3. Verify the game files through Steam
   • Steam → Library
   • Right click the game → Properties
   • Local Files → Verify integrity
   (It’s correct that it shows you the 3 corrupted files because when you delete the folder, the files are removed, so when you run the verification, it downloads the folder again with the 3 files fixed).

Wait for it to finish.

4. Restart your PC

5. Proper launch order
   • Open EA App
   • Then open Steam
   • Launch FC 26 from Steam

IMPORTANT: Do NOT change graphic settings. Unless, all the steps become useless.

6. DISCONNECT FIX (do this every time you open the game)

1. Go to Online Settings
2. Set Cross-play → OFF
3. Enter any mode (Pro Clubs / Rush / Rivals)
4. Set Cross-play → ON
5. Start the match

[main verge]

Hi

We have received a response from EA!

“The team has been investigating non-stop since the issue was raised -- and thankfully I can report that while we don't yet have a fix, we DO have a potential work around.”

• Please tell your PC players to change the setting below:

Graphics Settings > Crowd Quality > set to MEDIUM (do not set to Low)

With this games are on tonight

Thanks :VPGLOGO:

[glass geode]

Graphic Settings still reset. Cannot Access Team Management Mid Game. Corner Tactics Reset. Great Job EA
