To give some context for this feedback, I am a long-time FIFA player, having started back in FIFA 06 when Ultimate Team didn’t even exist. I have bought the game every year up until FIFA 23, when I stopped because I was tired of everything surrounding the game. This year I decided to give EA FC 26 a chance. I purchased the Ultimate Edition which cost me €89.99, and honestly, if I could get a refund, I would.
In previous FIFA titles, I was always a fairly decent player, usually playing between divisions 4 and 5. But in this new EA FC, I simply feel like I cannot play at all. Since the latest update in Rivals, I’ve had 8 losses in a row without a single win. I can’t defend and even less attack. I have a balanced squad and I’m using a 4-2-3-1 tactic that many Pros use, which was working for me in this EA FC before the update. Before the official release I was close to division 6, and now I’m dropping all the way down to division 9.
I don’t know if this is just happening to me, but I simply cannot play anymore and I’ve completely lost motivation. At this point, I only play “just because”, but I keep taking heavy defeats game after game. I even had a draw where both me and my opponent scored a total of 10 goals.
My defense feels inconsistent, my attack feels like complete trash, and my midfield seems like they don’t even know how to run. On top of that, my players are easily outrun by more agile players and sometimes even by slower ones, making it extremely difficult to keep up. Passes are constantly being intercepted by the opponent’s midfield and defense, no matter which player they are using.
I loved FIFA up until FIFA 19, and after that it just kept going downhill. Even though I do like some aspects of the gameplay in this new EA FC, I feel like something is still missing to make it more consistent and a cleaner project overall.
If anyone wants to help or knows how to help, that would be great. Tips are always welcome.
