if u play 4-4-1-1 u need at least like a holding-box2box
i dont want to play against ai all game, ts is not squad battles
Bro my theres always a open space in the middle of my cbs and the st js gets on the goal by a through ball
U reckon i sell my Bellingham?
try different tactics, use better roles, learn to track runs, use jockey, learn right stick switching
Is anyone here able to find online matches ?
online servers are down
the people have spoken!
u can try him as b2b or sumn like that or change the formation otherwise mayb swap him for someone else
i love the community!!ā
Maintenance?
they acutally understood the defending is fine rn
Or is ea messed up?
i think so yeah
they just tweeted that they have matchmaking problems
yeah now it is with the fix to cb marking
they were parting like the red sea
Guys will player prices drop
Sorry but I can deal with that defense cause I am a good at defense others canāt itās not fair I am talking for the sake of all players
idc tbh
yeah at times like my wingback went randomly inside and my cb just went into him
i played squad battles on legendary with it, its actally perfect
but other than that it was good now i think its patched
Idk if i should keep my tradable players or nah
exactly man
brave! I only play world class, pretty comfy 5-0
is the patch alr out?
are servers online again?
The defending is fine
yea
ohhh
I you canāt use ai to defend for you
The defending really isnt fine tho
hell yeah
it is
its difficult af though dont get me wrong
U actually have to have skill
u just need to get it it might take time
also the new promo looks perfekt for me, they really taking it fr with the slower power curve
Not spam team contain and control your dms
only reason im playing vs legendary is to practice defending
u need to jockey and track well its not easy but its VERY rewarding
Bro whos idea was āslower power curveā
rivals works for noone?
I made 7k on my rivals rewards
auto defending goat
Agree
im with lacroix and davinson sanchez lmao
Only ppl who buy fifa coins are in profit w the āslower power curveā
have araujo and jones, jones is actually not bad for a female cb
Fifa points i meant
it is
Maybe defense is good but jockey is too bad isnāt effective
this year u can beat every player if you're good enough
VVD Konate Chiellini who starts?
3m coins costs like 2k gbp its insane LOL
who cares, 90% of the ppl dont buy points
u need to jockey well just holding it isnt enough\
its really hard but rewarding
it is if you know how to position, you're just exposing your 0 ball knowledge š¤
Hhhhhh come teach me
90% do buy but in low amounts
i love dribbling past these bad defenders haha
Hhhhhh youāre right
you can see them spamming tackle and not working
trying to get better at it too lol
and if the enemy is pulling out theire cbs its gg anyways
also l1 Y passes are crazy this year
tackle stun time this year is beautiful
100%
DO NOT TOUCH THE DEFENDING EA. LEAVE AS IT IS. THANKS
Ive never tried it
+1
How long will it take to get banned u reckon
yes
worst place to ask lmao
then they get mad that their 83 standing tackle 20k defender with no playstyle+, 81 reactions, no role++ can't automatic defend (Araujo users)
Nothing called fifa itās fc 100 knowlage š
Was it only on webapp or the game aswell
LMAO
everything
i will never call it "fc" in my life
its fifa/pifa or nothing
can we address just how good messi is this year finally the goat is getting his flowers
he's so fun to use
just like i call twitter, twitter and not "X"
Oh wow i was js abt to pay for a bot aswell lmao
hell nah
hes useable because ea FINALLY made like 99% of players useable
literally the best change ever
you finally dont have to play against 30 of the same players, if i saw one more llorente in everyones starting team my head wouldve been on mars
What do yall teams look like
is it a right time to buy reijnders??
let me finish my squad battles game
ill screenshot
Bet
no
i packed him tradeable from my rewards this morning #big
wait til after the promo
finesses with precision are great in the right angles
left stick is AMAZING
passing feels crazy
I would wait! prices are seriously inflated right now for EVERYONE!
š¼
also naz, the tottenham female player is crazy left stick that is messi level and she finishes everything, crazyyy card
ohk
div 4 and best pulls are shaw, kane and doku all untrade šæ
are the servers down?
Hi guys, i cant match with anyone, are u in the same situation?
Servers have been intermittently out for me this evening @tough void
Wait till content tmo
Like 30 min before
U guys having issues with draft dc's on pc? half my draft im getting disconnected first round, even one time in a final...
Why do streamers and content creators tell console players to turn off crossplay because of pc cheaters when the general player will never reach a high enough MMR to RARELY face them?
expecting to do everything for them
server issues
im not eligible
But it only happens in draft tho
There are "decent" cheaters and "bad" cheaters
really?Imma use her once i finish garincha if you say shes good
Some of them are decent and will disconnect you and it shouldn't count as a loss, some force you to play a full game or quit...
ones with a soul
could anyone game share me?
They are there for the fast coinsš
and then theres the fckers that disconnect and counts as a loss
and remember that it's their choice to disconnect and count it as a loss for you
i cant find a game? anyone else has the same issue?
EA tweeted about it, they are looking to fix matchmaking, check the news section at the top.
her left stick is nuts man got me the clutch 90 min goal to get to div 4 yesterday, she also has tiki taka which is really good for the first time pass animations
hi
If youāre going to add an intrusive anti-cheat, then it should actually work. Thereās literally no difference between this fc and the last when it comes to cheaters. In Draft, about every third game is against a cheater and I just get handed a loss. This is completely unacceptable.
SB it is then
Wait. Is ea anti-cheat kernel level?
from my understandings, yeah it is
yea I'm 100% going to console next year
at least it's not like vanguard that it is permanently open...
Itās not like Vanguard, sure, but with EA you can bet it still has vulnerabilities and itās intrusive. In the end, whatās the point if it doesnāt even fix the cheater problem? I wouldnāt mind running it if it actually worked.
it is
I share your same opinion
h
i cant find a game
drafts are unplayable
The pitch notes mentioned wing backs not dropping back anymore when in possession - I guess this didnāt apply to attacking wing backs? Theyāre really slow to get up the flank and they also drop back a lot when in attack.
h
hahahaa
so they made attacking wingbacks more devf
Hello, I have a question, a new update came out on my PC today and my settings haven't changed but I have incredible lag, even a slideshow, CPU usage at 100% and GPU also at 100%. I don't know what to do, the game is unplayable, I have the lowest settings, it's terrible.
defensive than wingbacks
try render quality at 50
anybody on pc having problems with finding rival opponents??
might look like sht but its without lag
I havenāt tested normal wingbacks, but the attacking ones are definitely not working as intended.
yesssss
same
and early access
is there a fix or smth
cup
Fix for me now
i wanna find out
draft is finding me 300 ping games
i did a 90 ping draft
hacker if its only draft
Working fine for me
i think
its an unfinished product
im jking bro im used to the patches
cant find games on UT .... keeps looking
Is anyone having issue with the path to pro foundation objective not completing after finishing diving in, in FUT? If so, is there a workaround or fix? Or screw my time and suffering trying to complete it?
nah the gameplay is good but they never get servers right
thats what i meant
everytime there is some bug with hackers or servers
yep
After scoring 39 goals on a squad battle for objective, the servers threw me outside, gg
do we know when rivals gonna be back?
Anyone who wants to gameshare him on xbox dm me
i want to play coop squad battles with my friend and when we go in game for me its normal but he cant move does anyone know why?
Servers down
so we cant play coop?
Nothing helps, cutscenes work normally, everything works fine, but when I start the match it's a 20 fps slideshow, I have the lowest settings and quite good hardware because I play with an RTX 5070 and Ryzen 5 5600 at 2k, before this update the game was running perfectly and now it's unplayable...
servers do not work?
Online is disabled just about
is the game blurry
If I set the render quality to 50, then
Canāt find an opponent in rivals or the cup⦠somethingās wrong?
what should I do, I'm tired of this game
or check if your pc can handle fc 26
maybe uninstall and install the game?
fear wont work
yep
when will it be enabled?
here it comes the moment of truth
i ignored the path to pro objectives got to venturing out i see foundations evo completion is needed but i already completed it before i unlocked it and it isnt done :\
(PC) When I play online, my controller doesn't work. Can anyone help me?
in the end it was a typo from EA
wasn't it supposed to release 8am et on pc?
There are 2 posts from EA that conflicts each other
One is on the official release page and it states "25th september 2pm CEST"
Nothing noted so far on server issues other than the awareness of UT connection issues
The other is on the community page and states "26th september 2am CEST"
when are they gonna fix pc contrroller man
Pc controller issues what kind of controller and connections are being used?
anyone else struggling to find a game on rivals?
So is the game not officially launching today on PC?
I've had zero issues using official Xbox series wireless and pc wireless usb.
why cant i start fc26 isnt release rn
Yeh i think the servers are out
ahhh understandable
The funniest thing is that I have the game in the Ultimate version, and I lost all my benefit of playing early
Official release I thought was midnight tonight for standard
Not sure tho, but Iām hearing alot of people with trouble.
who saw the corner stones l3ak
when is realse guys i thought that should be like 10 mis ago
could be delays
me to LOL
can anyone find a game if u try play online
i cant even launch
Rush works for me
Compensation packs
Needed tbh
I think I can finally go draft with confidens when full release is
are regular release ppl able to launch now?
I've been seeing 4 icon teams with mbappe in it in div 8 š
Thats brutal
Money can't buy hands lol
regular ppl will be able to launch tonight
is there lot of cheaters in draft right now?
I thought it was 8am est no?
Yeah, hackers that control your team and disconnect you
It does when gvardiol and chiellini don't mark anyone
People be spendin on packs
I havent notice cheaters yet in my matches
I think it will get worse when full release xdd
Ai won't do it for you, gotta do it yourself homie lol
Have the same problem, no matter what i do the cpu is always above 80% and at 100% constantly
hurts seeing my gpu at 20-30% and the cpu just suffering, i think its an anticheat issue
Their positioning doesn't help when I switch to em and I'm running a county mile just to concede
Does EAFC has any report system for cheaters? Like other multiplayer games directly report from the game
ppl would report more if u would get a reward from doing it if the cheater gets banned
like 5k coins or som
or 10k
Twin, do I buy rodri to replace my foundation endo twin?
Thats the problem on PC š I play on PC I hope it doesnt get that bad
Lol nah you should report bc a hacker is making you lose and not letting you play, you don't need rewards
Bounty hunting, hell yeah
Lowkey would be good lol
I cba reporting someone if I dont get anything back
in every other game u get something if u lost to a chaater
That's just ruining it for others
EA you need to nerf ai defending in squad battles, and bring back the fc25 freekick system. The new freekick system sucks.
mm fixed yet?
So you would rather keep losing if you don't get a reward? Very smart indeed
Match making appears to be working
Guys I bought the game, it says it will release on September 25th, and I still can't play it (I'm on steam)
How many silver icons we all got?
the chance of playing the same cheater when full release is out is so little
Why do people cheat, and why in FC games like bru it just ruins everything for everyone
is matchmaking back?
I'm in game working
How do you want to nerf something that barely exists lol? Unless you play on the legendary level or world class vs maxed out chem team, ai barely does anything to stop your team.
Itās like they want hackers on the game
Was it not working for you before and now working ? Or always working
the cheaters sell accounts with lots of coins or rare cards and someone pays to get boosted by cheaters
anyone know when the game drops on pc? i thought it was on the 25th
Cause match making still not working for me
Wasn't but now
Matchmaking just came back for me
Lucky man
Me
Squad battles Ai doesn't track runs, just play through balls
Hi I have a problem with the objectives I can't validate evo foundation and therefore access the transfer market has anyone succeeded?
yes
EA Sports FC 26 will release on 26th September 2025 on console, and on 25th September 2025 on PC
damn
Yeah, had an Xbox opponent pause on every kickoff and then unpause which made my ping go double and my fps go to 10
so pc does have casuals now?
I play window borderless
im not sure what time it releases today on pc
someone else got the bugg with 16 played squad battle and u never played squad this week?
i have 9k points and 16games done without playing squad for once
https://forums.ea.com/discussions/fc-26-general-discussion-en/info-fc-26-release-times/12585128 Now you should know. You are welcome.//
weird that pc release is not at the same moment as console tho
I have early acces I dont need the info but thx anyway
thats messed up lowkey when they said pc gets to play a day before global launch
I started playing on 18th
na fr
frfr
i received 1
so that u can get jones and sissi xdd
HAHAHAH
I got seiger the base card isnt that good but the upgrade looks good
I think totti was the best realistic pull if u got it
i got zlatan
anyone ordered standard edition from UK? Doesnt the website say we can play it 1pm bst today but EA app says otherwise, weird.
If u had EA play you would have been able to play since last week
eapro
idk why everyone doesnt get ea pro for 1 month, gives u the ultimate edition fifa points and icons then just buy a key for 30 quid once its ran out
ahh idk, the website said those who ordered standard edition they would be able to access and play today at 1pm bst time, did not mentioned ea play anywhere
Is the game released already? Forums say 26th, but EA app says 25th
Who wanna play rush clubs and make some xp
release is sep 26 but it says sep 25
If I buy ea play rn I can play fc 26 for 10 hourss?
yes
Is clubs already dead? xD tried all day to play rush but no team was found
is any event (special cards) coming out today or tomorrow
u din get zlatan , zlatan got u
should i swap guimares or endo out for camavinga?
how did you fix it?
servers down
@karmic bramble matchmaking is down apparently
wait what? no info has been shown
Iām so ahh at this game
š
i dont use X :/
Sum 80+ picks and 80+ 81+ packs
What they dropping
It does look good
reijnders looks insane
cole
Yeah I'm saving my packs and hoping
wish there was a liverpool player tho lol š¢
i can just tell the pack weights gonna be rare af
crazy the servers are down for 5 hours
Hope they dont add 26 different special cards because I havent played UT in 2-3 years
i havenāt even packed a team of the week ffs
I hope they donāt touch defending
Already have two
Any tips on how to get manager objectives done without actually playing full 5 matches?
Is it me or is there still controller delay on PC
iād have one if the objective wasnāt glitched š
Its a bit harder
so release now is sep 26 but it still says sep 25
put the match time to like 4 min to make it faster
Itās harder but it has a learning curve I hate AI defending
they should only fix jockeying a bit
Is it me or is there still controller delay on PC
yea increase the speed the tiniest bit
Yes but if you look up steam page it says exact time. It's probably oversight on EA Launcher side.
W pfp
Still too much time 𤣠thanks
The defending is nice. It rewards focus and discipline. Punishes bad play. ai doesnt bail ppl out as much . GG ea
š i know lol
Tnx š¤š»
Yeah but I hope EA doesnāt patch it
didnt find a fix, i just put everything to low and limited the fps to 60 from the gpu, still hits 100% on the cpu sometimes but less
Yea me too man @knotty kraken
yh aside from L2 everything is decent cuz jockeying doesnt do anything
Whats the meta formation
My defender is literally in front of the ball and doesnt even bother to tackle
I like 1-2-6-7
Itās on you to time your tackles
Tackling is the best it ever been
that would mean you have 16 players on field
yh its good but theres input delay sometimes
I feel input delay only my ping is over 28ms
When*
I always play with 70+ ping lol
i thought they fixed positioning this update right?
Is the delay fixed?
Yeah but it also has to do with the tactics, and you gotta track the runs now
Controller delay on PC
Yh and they move like they carry a whole ton on their back
eh, how can you screw up the whole game with one update
Like they can't jockey from left to right without either doing it too slowly or just moving way too much
it feels inconsistent
everything else is good tho im not complaining, but they could fix that a little
I didnāt play the new patch yet I hope they fixed the defender positioning other than that I have no issue with defending
Also if you have over 100 ping you will lose
So is the PC controller delay fixed? Or
Not because of speed lag, but because the input delay is so ridiculous that your players take 1 second to do the animation
depends on the servers
Sometimes the gameplay is like really smooth and fun
Rival is fixed?
its probably a ping issue
or its slow and sluggish
just search for better servers
I have low ping lol so
what ping do you get
Like 8 - 12ms
im always on 30
It isnt because it also happens in squad battles
then maybe its a performance issue
Ea confirmed it was a issue with input
Problem is my formation is reliant on quick passes, so any delay is a death sentence
i only know the one where people couldnt use controller
fc26 best
fifa 22
deffo one of the better gameplays in recent years
hi
didnt play FC24 and FC25 UT
icl i think itās better than 23
GOOD
fc24 goated content
Barely touched 23
Last fifa I bought was 23
Does any1 know what time standard releases on pc
Everything else since is either from ps plus or shared
26th
played a lot of career mode on 24
i only play ut
i play career and other stuff for xp
when i feel like it
Only play UT this year for the funsies
first weeks of fifa are always fun
i realized i liked playing fc24 ut
when fc25 came out
Do someone now if the flashback goretzka SBC I coming today whit the cornerstone promo?
the what!?
Brother Goretzka is bad in game from my experience
today or tomorrow
They have said that it's common a goretzka sbc
No way we already have gullit gang in fc26
today probably because i doubt they would drop a promo and flashback sbc
are servers up?
Stats inflation
.
but thursday content is always marquee matchups @ruby latch
I did pick up my rivals rewards like 30 minutes ago
Might be up then
why is matchmaking so buns today
Marquee matchups?
its always buns
nah like legit canāt get into a single game
are servers up anyone?
you dont know?
I looked on the website and it should be working
i think its an oceania thing lol
i think on standard release it will be fine
I'm a bit rusty swoop so what is it
far out
i was on my game to completing rush objective and then it kicks me out and i canāt queue again
i cant send screenshots
but this is the description
"Marquee Matchups
Complete challenges themed around this week's key matchups."
and u get packs
Yeah now I understand
but well see tho
The delay is so fk bad on PC holy
ay bro is rivals insanely hard rn or js me
rivals is not even that hard for me
i cant do sht in the tourney lol
It is rn because the delay is bad
At least for me
š
I cant even defend because of it
it is known issue the delay?
defending is so much harder this year
Damn. Idk about yall. But Iām highly dissatisfied that the Brazilian league isnāt in the game. Nor is the Brazilian national team. Bought the game bc I heard about it changing this year.. šāāļø
Itās still not fixed?
if u cant defend skill issue
Fr
The button responsiveness sucks
THIS
That's not the game's fault. I have 40-50 ping but very good responsiveness
I swear it felt so much better the first 1-2 days of beta but itās just like every year. Just gets worse again the longer the game is out
I have 20 ping. I have it straight hooked to my wifi with a booster
And it still sucks
i have a bug thats not letting me get into the early access cup, anyone else had this problem?
He's not lying
First days were really quick and fluid
same happend to me, tried to get a refund nothing happend
ill play 1 cup match rn and ill tell you how it is for me
Fr. Now they feel robotic again.
Robotic and slow
Passing to the wrong players
like right now?
maybe on release they fix it ig
^^yes. I even have the trainer on for better direction and passing but it still doesnāt pass where u want it to
Its horror when you play a formation that relies on passing asw
was yesterday, my friend got a token, but i got none
Thatās the whole point of the game šš
Ik but 4-1-2-1-2 is highly orientated on passes
imo
horrible already
I'm getting fc26 this weekend, r9 s00n
im playing in that shadow stadium
šššš
Turn it off
do not change defending
Should I buy this game
no
and im playing against haram ball 5-back
You can turn rooftop shadows off
no you cant
some stadiums are bugged
and you cant do anything
is there a way to get help on here? i dont get any respons on my ticket wich i sent trought EA Help
Its literally a new feature lad
Are u guys able to queue in games yet
Color blind settings do s bit for the shadows
What bothers me too is how EA doesnāt give us the teams from previous years too! Just like they do for 2k. Imagine selecting 2010 barca. Or 2015-16 Madrid.
2K is worse than EA btw
Oh 100%
EA looks like a saint compared to 2K
2k is the worst company ever
But Iām just saying being able to select those teams would be cool
warra gif
U gotta pay like 200 dollars for a max build
and dont even get your coins back
if you dont like it
and its expensive asw
YOU CANT
bro
did you even play in the new tourney?
some stadiums
not buying a quincy acy for 15K coins
literally impossible
Yo does anyone know what type of midfielder i need to plsy haram ball
Nmecha
Debinha
Yh hes good
Ok will try
Please donāt change defending ea this is the best fifa since 17
only change L2 a bit
and its perfect
is server down?
Wym L2
Jockeying
Literally doing it
Maybe a tad but itās literally brilliant this year
Donāt change defending, make scoring in the box a bit easier as keepers are on crack, patch corners and kick offs and this game will be playable for a cycle
Where is the poll ?
Nah they should be on crack its a good thing
š
Maybe a skill issue on my part then, some games I canāt score for my life clear 1 on 1ās š
Yet outside the box they go in
Id rather have that than a keeper that does the worst animations
I find that keepers save nothing in the box unless you move them and that difficult
l2 is not good lol
Rush keepers are still from the previous game btw and look at their animations
when is ea fc gonna open on the pc ?
Like I have played multiple games with 12-10 score lines
hii, servers are up? a few hours ago i couldnt match with anyone
Only thing keepers still suck at is near post
Its too easy to score right now, and beyblade meta spinning around because defenders are useless is boring gameplay
I noticed that too its boring
Skill issue bruh
And im saying this as an Elite/R1-3 player
@lusty pasture
i lost 4-2
but i didnt have any like real problems in terms of latency
i was playing on 30 ping
Sometimes your defenders are acc incapable of defending it
@ruby latch please look #šøāfc26-snapshots
All they do is spin around outside the box because Jockeying is horror
And elite player last year means nothing, anyone could get to div 1 last year
haram ball opponent so it doesnt really matter
every year but go off
Damn my boi is honest too šā
like im not even having fun scoring because its too easy
Im in a group chat with 20 of my mates, we all play fifa and are between div 3-6 and not one of us like the defending, super inconsistent and needs changing or people are just gonna stop playing by the end of October
latency is okay but still many players feel sloppy
but thats just my team ngl
have to wait till mid-game
How do the opponents even have fun playing lile that
..
i mean i play like that because why wouldnt i when its the easiest way to score
Because most of you are used to last year where you just control CDMās and AI does the rest, maybe slight tweaks are needed for defending with jockey, but at the same time just learn how to defend since you didnāt have to do it last year
this guy š
But thatās the thing. Why do we gotta wait til mid game when the first couple days of beta were great.
i mean in players being sluggish
Yeah but people are also getting used to the game
Nah I didnt rely on AI
Everyone did if you say you didnāt your lying š
You didnāt need to control a cb last year
i abused the most that i could
Just cdms
You shouldnt be controlling a cb this year either
Didnt even play UT last year
personally
Thankyou someoneās honest
Bruh šš
tho i was mad about people doing the same lol
Literally just watch the pro ladder they controlled CBs more last year than this year talking bout "Bruh"
If they touch defending it will be so dead
^^^^
Why play a football game if you donāt want to learn how to defend
defending with ai means like dropping the controller while letting the ai do everything right
they already did minor changes
u can read in pitch notes
šÆ
Yh but what they did does nothing noticeable
@past galleon
I think keepers just need to be slightly better because it feels like they save 1/10 shots
You know what I mean, all you had to do was control cdms and barely touch a cb last year
nah not really cuz I barely played 25
Your lucky you missed it
I didnāt even buy fc 25
Este juego fc 26 cuando salio el primer dia si estaba bien, se defendia y estaba difĆcil de entrar al area , los porteros paraban, a los 2 dias sacan una actualización y ya no sirve es como el fc 25 o mas malo, la peor compra q e echo , el fĆŗtbol tienen q hacerlo dificil de atacar , lo tenian q dejar como salio
Fc 24 made me not want to play
same
I bought this year and honestly most fun Iām having on a fifa in years
I just think keepers hardly save anything
Unless they are moved the right way
No one can understand you mate and you sat there typing for 10 mins
Your drunk mate
No their animations are way better
If you move the keeper they will but again I donāt think that should be in the game like green time finishing glad thatās gone
I agree
I could do an 1 hour rant of how bad the gk animations were last year
They dodge away from the ball
Honestly they amount of games Iām in with the score like getting to double digit goals on both sides is unreal
They would literally let the ball in on purpose
I have watched my keepers do the same thing
Thatās cuz you canāt defend matešš¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Frustrating
then u need to learn how to defend
Well itās working both ways
but sometimes players do everything super early
Defending needs buffed not attacking
if u want to pass u try to charge up but they do a mid pass with like 50% energy
average div 10 player
Because Iām scoring 12 goals
No it donāt mate
Iām in div 5 at the moment and you can score almost anywhere in the box
As you should be able to no?
Keepers just feel like they donāt save anything, how is that anything to do with my defending
Div 5 almost div 4š
my highest scoring game so far has been 5 - 3
Most players can score in the box
where can i find the poll ?
It really is
Skill issues
I mean yes but I feel like there is never a chance my keeper or thereās will save it
Yh I only score inside
U just need to learn to defend
thanks ā¤ļø
listen man if you cant manage moving your thumbs without having ai help you out then honestly switch to pes
š
?
my thumbs too long tho
you have to manually defend in PES more than you do in this fifa lmao
buy a second hand knockoff controller from alibaba š
Is the new update out?
Please donāt touch defending
ya came out like 1st thing this morning
Buffing AI will kill this game like last year
No joke I have long thumbs it aint easy lad
Iāll go try it now
honestly i rate how they made defenders actually go to ur set depth unlike pre patch
was the only thing that pissed me off
during turnovers and wht not ***
I did notice that the other cb would just run wide sometimes
Yeah think higher depth just did offside traps š
the amount of times my konate did that the last week š
So hopefully they did fix that like it said in the notes
Lolol
Hate when I know exactly what my opponent does but my defender is too bad to get the ball
People saying double digits results are definitely on the bad side of the skill gap. Most of my matches are at max 5 goals per side, no more than that. Defending this year actually requires skill and that is the fun about the game, learning and try to reduce the skill gap between you and your rivals.
@lusty pasture next game i won 2-1
thank the lord since this new patch ive managed to get from div 5 to div 3 cause my defenders finally actually dont decide to just run clear of attackers
Same, big amounts of goals are in those matches when 2 player facing each other cant defend properly
Yep, the defending in its current state creates the skill gap
5 goals per side is still a double digit result, every match shouldnt have 10 goals scored in it lol
we need more neutral votes. EA will patch defenders anyways if its even 10%
You definitely can't read, I said AT MAX
If they buff defending AI it becomes another snooze fest
did anyone else buy FC 26 on PC/EA App and it still shows as the EA Play trial?
just make them a bit quicker on jockeying thats it
People enjoy the dopamine that comes with scoring goals so they like seeing the high number but it makes for poor gameplay
U want realism go play career. Ultimate team is a arcade game mode
Anyone know if the 1.0.2 update has made Legendary/Ultimate difficulty for Career Mode any harder?
icl anyone ive seen complaining about double digit games either cannot defend and just needs some practice, or they run a 4 2 3 1 varient and match against others with that formation which made there be 0 midfield domiance and crazy end to end games
i would say defenders need to be a little bit faster when turning
Like with the AI attacking/defending?
Yes thats my main issue the movement
hope so cause i managed to beat arsenal with west ham on a live start date with leg dif
bit dumb
u just need to anticipate runs sooner and switch to the defender then manually cover where the attackers going
will solve ur issue
Very. Currently halfway through my second season an Arsenal career mode, and been playing Ultimate with sliders heavily tuned in favour of the CPU, and still too easy.
What the hell do I do?
sometime when I cover them they still let it through dunno how
i mean that they need more agility. Defender being more agile holding ball than wihtout makes no sense
In that case dopamine would come from getting the ball back too. It is not the case, the thing is it's just so boring to play against a person who only play with they CDM's all games or even their ST's and bringing them back to their side of the pitch only to let the AI's CB's do the work for them, that's exactly what happened all year last year, is boring af. Why do you think the game died last year so quickly?
doing exactly that
Does anybody have complete system freeze in game like ? It's the only game where my pc does that
its poorly optimized for pc thats why theres a plethora of pc issues like input not working, lag, sytem freezes, game crashes.
1st of all dont do an arsenal career mode ( theyre bad 𤣠), use a worse team i.e westham (they are seriously dreadful this yr on fifa) and try using irl tactics rather than pro meta 4 2 3 1 esc stuff
shoulkd help u out
put ur graphics settings down to as low is bareable for u
is 4-1-2-1-2 valid
I play 41212 (2) and having good results, very good IMO
id say the varient without wingers is valid
yea but it sadly dosn't really change anything š
variant with ends up playing like 4 2 31
is matchmaking working now?
Yh mine is without wingers
havent had an issue
Is it the one with the cms
Is fc 26 pc version out yet or its tomorrow the 26th?
when will standard edition release for PC users?
Yeah exactly, 1 CDM 2 CM 1 CAM
main issue ive had is that my dorms wifi cant connect using wired to my ps5 cause of their security method so i end up getting 3k ping lag spikes every minute or so
Yh I play that asw its good
Wondering too
My alternative formation is 4-2-2-2 with two cdms and two cams
ive been running some crazy tactics so far this yr
I donāt really want to use a different team to the one I want to use⦠should just be a challenge regardless, especially if Iām Arsenal playing other top level teams, or in cup finals. And I like to think I use realistic tactics - and try to do everything with as much realism as possible. But just seems to be an issue this year - regardless of using Authentic, Competitive or Custom, and changing all the sliders.
Hopefully the patch has improved the AI attacking / defending - fingers crossedā¦
Tried that too, it's pretty good actually but I prefer to have like a Centralized CAM, more than two wide CAM's
Is any 3atb still decent
inspired by maresca
Yh it lacks someone in the middle, but I mostly use it when my opponent has a formation that makes it difficult with 4-1-2-1-2 (2)
only tried it with a troll team so far tbh so idk but highly doubt it
Has anyone tried the patch yet? feels any difference?
im pretty sure its hrad asf
not really lol
i dont do low driven shots so about that idk
EA WHATEVER U DO DONT TOUCH DEFENDING ITS BALANCED
But defence was not touched at all right? Except for the CB's being less wide now...
Used to play 3-4-2-1 for a bit
im running a 4 4 11 atm with aina my lb running fullback versitile and sbc reese running inverted attacking wing back attack, creates a nice 5 on 4 with defenders whilst still allowing me 3 cbs and a holding mid at the back
I've tried formations with 1 ST, I play so bad with 1 ST hahah
not that i feel adifference
GINOLA IS 7M?
Sounds encouraging, I hope that they listen to the majority of the community and do not touch anything in defence
Bro that card is so overrated
i wish i could play
How does it cost 7mil
but the pc version doesnt even launch
Its working for me
But when i open packs the animation at the start glitches
can i send a pic in this channel
ah see i use a role people seem to gloss over, target forward on balanced
I wish i knew how to fix it
works wonders for me
st drops deep when i need and runs when i need, and in the box stays near pen spot or runs to 6 yard box
thx
I could've had such an overpowered team
makes no difference
but no ea gave me a transfer ban and all the players that I wanted to buy got inflated hard
literally been using gittens over reiten
My team is still good, but its unfortunate
switched from pc to ps5 for this yr and ea decided to make me play 40 games to get transfer market š
I would've made such a profit
SAME
Because of them I had to buy Dumornay for 40K more
tho i dont like how he feels
also seger is awful
0 stamina
have to use architect so she dont die mid game
yo guys what are ur thoughts on the gameplay?
sometimes great sometimes bad
whyās gameplay heavier now
donāt feel like it
might be ur wifi
i have 10ms bro
what do u play on
where is the poll
ps5 pro
strange it doesnāt feel like it for me
feels way faster then last year
no i meant after the update
oh but itās still doesnāt make sense cuz they didnāt really do anything in the gameplay
might just be u man
Hello
They nerfed driven passes
im div 3 mate
I compleated all ny objectives in path to pro
But it still says i have diving in to complete
But i just did it
ohhh ok
Refresh ur game itās bugged
Yh refresh had the same thing
this has nthing to do with how ur passes feel?
Cheers mate
exactly then whyād u say it may just be meš
Inconsistent innit?
yes
cause unfortunately my dorms local router is awful and gives me random ping spikes when others are in/using wifi so i feel clunkyness unless i play at like 4 am
Literally they always manage to pass to someone that I didnt even plan to passing to
Makes me look like an idiot
are u holding pass to full strength
yeah idk what they did tbh
cause they made it so ur passes are crazy inaccurate when u do that
also use cards with passing playstyles
and use catalyst or similar attributes
No im literally pressing it lightly to the nearest player open and sometimes they yank it to a brudda thats covered by 4 men
oh thats just fifa being fifa man
Icl
Fifa on pc is terrile
Terrible
I thought it was gonna be better than on ps5
icl main issue is perf degredation from extended game time on it
dont be scared to chuck ur graphics down to low settings
Guys on PC in the second part of the games start to get 5 fps while playing this is impossible to play does anyone know how to solve it or do we have to wait?
Should I do the chukuwuemeka sbc
Hell no
Ngl cuz Engen is only there for chemistry
too expensive imo
Anyone experiencing āunstable connectionā every game today? Iām on ps5
- free packs coming tomorrow nights so give those a shot
my midfield lacks something dunno what
Already saved some up
Its like that for me when i open paxks also
dude this game has crazy input delay its actually insane
someone at ea have to fix it
Honestly feels like the ping to the server is wrong when in game. I'll have games at 40 ping that are smooth as butter but games at 18 ping that are as heavy as fc25.
no matter how good the game is it wont be good when its over 1 second delay
get a cam with incisive/ tiki taka and i cant give further recommendations cause idk ur playstyle
ur end
use ethernet
its not
@barren stump and playing?
240 fps, 3.5ms delay on controller
yh its similar to tiki taka I make a lot of passes
When the game loads the first 5 seconds
Is rivals matchmaking back up
Anyone experiencing āunstable connectionā every game today? Iām on ps5 using Ethernet
i wish it would show that on my screen because it would make sense with the input delay
Anyone wanna run some rush matches ?
no.
These randoms piss me off they arent doing the bonuses
@barren stump ok
why is that so OP if u keep turning arround? its impossible to defend...
skill issue tbh
thats on u tbh
literally take ur cb, move back like 4 meters, hold jockey and stand still then wait for them to actually move towards goal
sure been playing sinc 2005. and never got this issue. but we cant blame it on the game otherwise u get canceled nowadays
Do we think that now the full game is out prices of lower cards that are good for starters will go up?
for those who play on pc, is the game more fluid today?
they're just ragebaiting you dude dont engage
DEBINHA IS SO GOOD MAN
are servers back on?
Does standard edition release midnight today?
yes
Yo ima get fifa tomorrow what advice do yall have for me to earn money?
EA your defending is aweful. Bring last year defending back, less CPU more active defending!!!
Controllers for pc issue fixed yet?
Skill issue tbh
Defending is fine
Everybody hatea defending
Nope
It is tbh, itās just that the jockey thing feels a bit more loose.
Thatās all honestly
Yea
The rest is fine
Last year active Defense was funny
Now everybody is so passive and oppenent runs in CPU where is the fun?
defending is good man
Yeah but remember when halfway through attacking became incredibly difficult?
Cool, Iām gonna play tomorrow then
I think thatās why EA has done what they have
10/10 ragebait
Iāve heard a lot of conflicting stuff on the defending, whatās different from 25?
BRO I WANTED TO BUY HER FOR 22K
hallo
shes 5 3 btw
So you like just standing Passive in defends? Yeah makes fun š¬
but can someone explain why is dancing like a girl is almost not to defend? or not mature ppl in this chat to give a normal answer?
Not much besides changed AI behavior, and the jockey isnāt as rigid, meaning you actually have to be careful while jockeying to not go past them
Is defending really that hard?
Iāll have to see how it is in game but I was never much of an ai defender so this should help me out
It isnāt fun everbody is passive
In the grand scheme of things, no.
howās tackling? Heard itās much better
sesko unironicaly crazy starter card btw
If I've had the whole Failure to launch issue in recent months on fc25, will I, on the same pc and ea app, have that issue for 26? I tried everything to fix it
Itās pretty good now Iād say
probs
skill issue icl jockey needs some improvements thatās it
Honestly canāt say
Nice to hear. Any other things youād consider improvements or downgrades? How would you compare it to 25?
So guys how do we fix the delay problem on PC ._.
So should I buy on steam or what should I do
I gave up on 25 completely after TOTY, just couldnāt deal with it
The only thing I have to call a problem with 26.
Is the fact that it feels slow on PC sometimes, and that the controllers wonāt work yet in online modes. (Not sure if that last oneās been fixed)
I get itās a skill issue but not everyone has the time to no life the game. All people do now is R1 dribble in circles with women until a mistake is made
Thatās not football
Need to find a middle ground between AI and no AI
Ohh I play on console so it wonāt affect me. Iām excited to try it out then
Another fifa
Agreed
WiFi skill issue
dont fall for the people who are bad at the game saying skill issue to ragebait you lol
Old gen or new gen?
(PS4&XBOX or PS5&XBOX series X)
Who is everyoneās favourite winger
Lauren James
Rodman
Iāve heard some issues regarding PS5
Iām on new gen, PS5
Ahh rlly? What exactly?
Not too much worry
Oh thatās fine
PC is just hell right nowš
Sometimes feel like itās just me struggling this year please tell me thereās others
Literally
Looking at the streamer gameplays the menu seems much smoother, is that how it feels?
I am a casual thereās no doubt about it
With?
up to u
But are we just saying no more casuals can enjoy this game?š
I mean last year there was a point where there was like a second delay everytime you pressed r1 or l1 in the menu
I see NickRTFM saying just get good and learn defending but Iāve watched all tutorials and I just canāt change hahahaa
You could try using the AI defending
dont watch tutorials and just play
Yh, donāt sweat and js have fun
Clubs is a lot of fun when compared to fut
