I think what everyone is saying that the recent FIFA franchise manipulated the game in a way to keep you frustrated, yet interested and coming back for more. Pushing to get better players, complete more SBCs, or however to get a better team.

Poor connections to servers or poor performing servers may have an impact, but also some other things could easily be in the game.

Such as the issue with settings for the weather from Career Mode end up being your weather settings in FUT Squad Battles. Kind of crazy to start a match and it be raining and you did not set the match to be in the rain, yet it happens.

Code finds it’s way into parts of the game not intended... or thought not to be intended.

Anyone that is honest has seen at least one or two instances of this and should not be so quick to discount things others encounter as many of these things are not always wide spread and can impact just a small subset of users... and not everyone comes to boards to post.
