Daniel7454 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Me and my mate are trying to play an online career mode game but we cannot find each others game and when we invite each other, it doesn't do anything. Is there a fix for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Michael Mallia Posted December 30, 2020 SI Staff Share Posted December 30, 2020 Hi @Daniel7454 thank you for your post and sorry to hear you are having issues. We have seen this reported a couple of times following the release of our latest update, unfortunately we do not have a fix available but it is being investigated. In the first instance we would advise that both you and your friend try uninstalling and then re-installing the game and testing again and let us know if the issue persists. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haikazorla Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I know that plenty others have reported this issue, but here is mine with a rather comprehensive input. I am playing on Xbox Series S. My friend is on Xbox One. I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. He has my account, to game share on his Xbox One. So, I started a new online Career. I simply put in the server name, and open to friends only. No password. when the game starts, I save it. Then I went to Game Status. Besides the word Manager, it states, (No Network Connection). Again, I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and my Xbox Series S is connected to the internet via LAN. I am 100% sure that I am connected because I bought the digital copy. I wouldn’t be able to boot the game if I wasn’t connected to the internet. On Actions > Game > add new manager is greyed out. Also, invite friends to game button has never ever appeared on the screen. We are both on the same party and when I tried to invite him to game, the invite to game option is greyed out. i asked him to search for via server name. Nothing. i asked him to choose my gamtertag under the created by option. Nothing. i asked him to search with a blank server name. Nothing. i also did a blank search, also nothing. i did multiple restarts for 5 minutes, invite friends button, still hasn’t appeared. i did quit the game (clicking on quit in context menu), and started the game. Same results. i restart my xbox series s. Same results. i turned off xbox completely, same results. i turn off my my xbox fron the wall socket and turned on my xbox back, same results. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J26ACK Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Hi there, I just bought FM 2021 Xbox edition yesterday evening. I have downloaded it with a good WiFi connection quite easily. However me and my pal have wanted to start and online career together but on my game it keeps saying (no Internet connection) and doesn't give me a tab to invite friends too my online career but when my pal sets one up he can. I accept his invites but nothing happens. Everytime I go to invite its not lit up so can't invite friends at all. Now my Internet is fully working as I play multilayer on other games so I don't understand why its coming up (no Internet connection) when trying to set up and invite friends too online I bought this game to do online career with my pals and I can't do that. I've tried reinstalling the game, resetting wifi you name it but still says (no Internet connection). If anyone has any solutions or ways to fix this that would be much appreciated, Thank you :) 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paprika56 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Hi, I've exactly the same problem. My friend bought and downloaded the game last night on an excellent connection as he's using an ethernet cable. When he loads into FM on the Xbox and goes to join online game no games appear in the list. When I invite him to my game, he accepts it and nothing happens and when he goes to invite me to a game no invite button appears and it states he has no internet connection. We would really like this problem fixed as we want to enjoy an online career mode. Thanks!! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelandrews272 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Yes, me and my friend have the same problem. We installed the game last night hoping to play online with our other friends and we can not join any online leagues or invite friends. We also can’t accept any invites through the Xbox. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haikazorla Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I posted this as well Sucks when you paid for something, but you don’t get to use all the features. At the same time, having an xbox allows me to connect to my friends better. This online feature, I think most people buy it because they wanted an online career with their friends, rather than playing alone. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
