So I have said I have been changing the DNS mid game for some time now. But about a year and a half ago whilst changing the DNS , in search of fairer gameplay , I changed the DNS and the game disconnected.
My first thought was naturally “Oh no i must have lost”. But when I clicked out of the disconnection screen , up came the rivals points and WL qualification points. No skill points though. It had disconnected me with no loss. I was drawing at the time.
After telling people about this , some tried and informed me that it didn’t work on their router. Why it is different is probably because of differences between how routers reboot certain functions.
It may not have been something EA changed but something within the firmware which stopped the flow of packets from the game server enough to trigger a disconnection. Either way it is now an option for some players to use as a NO LOSS GLITCH.
