Unplayable for me - EA server issues/disconnects

[DirtyDozen]

Is no one else here having this issue?

FIFA 12 is unplayable for me due to constant EA server disconnects. As soon as I "Sign in to EA" again and then try to enter a mode it disconnects.

Every time I try to start Career Mode it disconnects. Then, if I start a Career in offline mode, the next time I try to Continue or Load that file it gives me an error saying "Your Career Mode file has Leagues included that you are no longer entitled to" and then prompts me to purchase a Season Ticket subscription! And this is after the release date, so that shouldn't even be an issue.

I'm also unable to play Ultimate Team Mode because it instantly disconnects me from the EA servers in the same way and boots me back to the arena.

This is a new retail copy that I redeemed the Online Pass code for. It's unacceptable that I cannot even play it.

I've tried deleting all the saves data on my hard drive and starting again, but I get the same issue. I also tried with and without the game installed to the 360 hard drive but that didn't help either.

I'm wondering if the UK release date was affecting me somehow, even though I'm in the US? I don't know why else it thought I needed Season Pass after the release date here. But even that doesn't make sense to me.

If anyone else has had this problem I'd be curious to hear about it (especially if you've been able to resolve it). I'd really like to play the game!

Had this pretty much the entire last 2 months of Fifa 11 and yes, it has already started happening to me on Fifa 12. Absolutely rediculous.

Had a ton of server issues yesterday but today I was able to play 3 matches online without any problem.

i had the issue yesterday and the servers just kicked me off at halftime of a match i was leading 1-0 and i needed to win to get promoted to division 9 and it was my last of the 10 matches they give you. i'm pissed!

Same thing has happened to me countless times. I thought it was just me for awhile.

It is getting out of hand and frustrating to put it nicely. EA Sports really needs to get their act together with this stuff. First NCAA (awful with server issues and freezing), Madden and now FIFA.

I'm having the same problems. I can't get into Ultimate Team at all, can't upload replays, and everytime I start my career, I get kicked out of the EA Servers. This is just a joke. It's all over the EA Boards as well.
