FIFA 13 Ultimate Team taken offline

EA has taken FIFA 13 Ultimate Team offline to solve several issues and complications.

Trade pile and auction house problems have blighted the service recently.

A post from the FIFA community manager, Robb, made on the EA forum stated that the problems should be solved in the coming days.

"As you may know, there have been recent trade pile and auction house complications in FIFA 13: Ultimate Team," he said.

"While we work to resolve the issue we've temporarily disabled FIFA 13: Ultimate Team. This is to ensure that more users do not become affected and an optimal experience can be sustained in the future.

"FUT13 online gameplay, trading, store purchasing, the Web App, and the mobile companion app will be unavailable during this time."
