One message, stop playing fc 26, for your own sake and for your mental health. The game is gone.

  1. Gameplay is the worst i have ever experienced and i have played ultimate team since 2012. The game should be enjoyable and fun, but none of us are enjoying it. Pace doesnt matter, the gameplay is so unresponsive that dribbling doesnt matter, horrible attacking runs, awful defense mechanism.

  2. Content is awful, overpriced sbcs, evos are getting worse and worse, objectives are awful and just the same every promo. Its all about trying to make people buy fc points.

  3. Store packs is a massive problem, i get that ea are greedy, but store packs are killing the market, because of supply.

  4. Pack weight is truly awful. I get that packing great players should be hard, but the pack weight in gamble sbcs are just beyond stupid. Same with promo cards, just not in packs…

  5. ultimate team is never going to be good again, the only thing we can do is to stop playing it, for our own health. Find another game, be with friends, work hard, be with family, anything other than playing this embarrassing game

As someone who has been playing this game since 2016, I agree. This is the worst series of the game! I'm sure they did this on purpose, knowing the mistakes they made and the logic of the game. They've made the mistakes they made in previous years even worse and presented them to us! The physics are terrible, shoulder tackles and their logic are terrible, constantly tackling while standing is terrible, constantly dribbling is terrible, leaving defense to the AI is terrible, and only being able to score with counterattacks or being forced to do so by the meta is terrible.

In short, they ruined an amazing series and game, and they're not developing it—they're just delaying it.

I agree

#

I played since fifa 15

#

This is the worst gameplay I ever seen

#

My left nut could make a better game

You summarized it very well. It doesn’t even make sense to start explaining all the nonsense that there is in the gameplay.

Very far from futbol, let alone having a good time

Its a shame but the game really is gone. I have played every FIFa since the original in 93. I remember when the only complaints were we wish there was more to do and sometimes there was lag and rarely, and geniuenly rarely there was input lag. And it would be like for 10 seconds in a match and go away. It is literally every game all game now. It started going down since FIFA 18. Frostbite is a FPS shooter engine and these clowns got rid of their dedicated sports creation engine to save money and used DICE developed frostbite. The game ever since then has steadily got worse. And honestly the worst part is i really dont even know if the game sucks. Every single is so laggy, the craziest input delay of my life, and geniunely unplayable due to bad coding, bad everything from the developers so its impossible to even know what the game actually is supposed to feel like

We are playing like dumbs agains bot and cheaters, and occasionally with another human, and the best part we don’t get to know

With regards to opening packs you need to open as many as you can within ID say the first 30 minutes of release

#

If Friday the better but ppl have jobs so Saturday at 1 pm EST can be just as good

#

I save packs for the releases so I have a lot to get through when new promos release

forget FC26~ or PC26(ping pong club) or CDM26 or DC26(delay club) or whatever.

Ping pong club is actual skill tho it’s not like running down the line to do a cutback or only controlling your cdm and going on the counter. There’s a difference !!

Ping pong in real life is skill, for sure —
but “Ping Pong Club” here isn’t about real table tennis or CDM-only counter merchants.

It’s a joke about how FC26 turns into a random bounce, high-scoring reaction game whenever delay hits.
Some matches feel fast, some slow, sometimes inputs don’t register — and goals fly in like a ping-pong rally.
It feels nothing like football.

I defend fully manual, not CDM-only.
The issue isn’t skill — it’s delay + desynced AI making the game behave like ping pong instead of football.

I’m Just saying that if you’re able to play fast tiki taka passing then there’s a skill gap to that in a competitive football game

At the same time one can be able to defend such a playstyle as the tiki taka style depends on getting defenders out of position.

Although it’s hard to defend against, it is possible through team mate contain and marking runs manually

It’s not a over powered mechanic like running down the line into a cutback meaningless goal or like I said playing a 451 dropback playstyle where you only control your cdm and let the AI play the game for you

I haven't played in the past 2 months. The first couple weeks were fun but since they patched the game and started catering to the crybabies again i realized this game is never gonna be good again

I get what you mean — tiki taka absolutely takes skill when the game is responsive.
That’s not what I’m talking about.

My point isn’t about playstyle strength at all.
It’s that FC26 becomes a completely different game depending on delay.
Some matches allow tiki taka, some don’t.
Some matches allow proper defending, some don’t.
That inconsistency destroys any skill gap.

You can’t “manually mark runs” when switching lags, inputs disappear, or AI desyncs.
That’s the part I mean by “Ping Pong Club” —
not the style, but the randomness caused by delay.

I’m not against tiki taka.
I’m against a game where the gameplay quality changes every match.

Skill only matters in a consistent environment — and FC26 doesn’t give that.

I have stopped due to fidget spinning and dda

I believe the word for bounces is “rebounds” and then there are “tackle backs”, which is when you manually take the ball from your opponent only for their attacker to move like prime maldini and steal the ball back

#

Ik what you mean about gameplay changing from
game to game. It also depends on the level of your opponents team. When I face better cards then suddenly my players can’t turn, move or pass. Making it feel like DDA

It’s really annoying but it’s EA rewarding the ppl who spend money on the game

It makes me have to play twice as focused as I am not just playing my opponent, but also playing against the game itself

#

I play in PC however. I can only imagine how awful there console version must be

Actually, the players' movement animations, physics system, collision animations, ball bounce physics, player collision physics, ball movement physics, and the AI's power level. Even in a single match, we can see that standing intervention spam and the sliding mechanics and physics are problematic. There are very detailed player videos about this on YouTube. I don't know if EA is looking at them.
