It’s impossible to play the game. You start a match and everything seems normal at first, but then the characters—meaning the players—become extremely slow, with massive input delay. You can’t control their movement properly, and their actions happen very late. You have no real control over them. At first, I thought it might be my controller, but it works perfectly fine in other games. However, in FC-26 it’s terrible and completely unplayable.
There is no way anyone can properly play this game on PC. It’s simply awful. So many bugs, very bad, terrible. For almost a month now, I’ve basically only been playing Rush, because Rivals is horrible to play—really horrible. I haven’t been able to rank up at all in Rivals, I haven’t progressed in anything. I only play Rush because it’s the only mode that more or less doesn’t bug out. The rest of the game is awful; it’s completely broken.
Even when I try to play a local match with my friends on my computer, using another controller, it’s still terrible to play. And it’s absurd that you pay between 375 and 400 reais for a game to get early access, and from early access until now—months after release—you still can’t play it properly. It’s basically throwing money away.
It would be much easier to release an annual update and only launch a new game every two years. For example, now we have 2026: release an update pack for 2026 with all the updated players, and only release a new game in 2027. Or release another update pack in 2027 with new mechanics and new players, and only release the next full game in 2028. That way, there would be more time to fix bugs, and it would be better for players, because we’d wait a year for a new game knowing it would actually be different from the previous one.
Instead, it’s always worse. It’s different in a bad way, because it comes with more bugs and takes even longer to fix. I think this is a huge lack of respect from the company toward the people who like the game and buy it to play.
