I honestly don’t know how you manage to ruin a game that actually felt great at launch — again. EA FC 26 was genuinely fun during the first few weeks, smooth and skill-based. But now it’s exactly like FC 25 all over again. Everything that made it enjoyable is gone.
And yes — call it whatever you want, but momentum is real. The moment you take the lead, your players become sluggish, passes get intercepted, every rebound and 50/50 goes to the opponent, and suddenly your ping spikes to 100 mid-match.
The kickoff bug is still there — and even worse after the last patch. It’s basically a guaranteed goal for the opponent.
Then there’s the pace and physics issue: players with 90+ pace and the correct PlayStyles still get caught by defenders with 80 pace or less, even when pushing the ball forward. Small female players can outmuscle big defenders like Konaté or Marquinhos, yet those same defenders can’t push off lightweight attackers. You claimed to patch this today — I noticed absolutely no difference.
Opponents just switch to their CDMs, sit deep, and let the AI defend. If you defend manually, you instantly concede. Counterattacks are automatic goals, corners are more dangerous than penalties. It’s not fun, it’s not skill-based — it’s pure randomness.
Example: I led 3-0, then suddenly my players slowed down, every pass got blocked, and I lost 4-3 after lag and rebounds. This happens constantly.
You released two patches and somehow made everything worse. It feels like you simply re-uploaded the old FC 25 gameplay.
In short:
– Momentum ruins matches.
– Delay & ping spikes make it unplayable.
– Kickoff bug is still broken.
– AI defending & auto-blocks kill skill.
– Pace & strength are totally unrealistic.
– The latest patch fixed nothing.
At launch, FC 26 was fun and fair. Now it’s just another frustrating mess. Please, bring back the gameplay from the first weeks — that version actually felt balanced and enjoyable.
