Since this new patch, every match I play on Rivals or any game mode, a few minutes into the game, I get a message saying my opponent has disconnected and a disparity is being reviewed. It kicks me out of the match and doesn't count as played. Has this happened to anyone else? Or is there a solution? EA_Blueberry: Please see my response within this thread FUT fans, We've passed along your reports to the EA FC team to be aware of. We'll share updates here and request more information if needed. Thank you for raising this to our attention and for your patience! I'll share this connectivity guide if it helps with any improvement while the team is investigating. It's possible that it could help some of you, and in the event it's an isolated issue, this can help us rule out anyone experiencing any local connectivity issues if we need to continue gathering more information from fans.Solved37KViews320likes860CommentsConnecting to Ultimate Team is not possible in Arizona, Texas, and Mexico
Cant connect Ultimate team servers. I got “connecting ultimate team is not possible at the moment” message. After trying many times, if I'm lucky, when the UT menu opens, I get the same message again after a long waiting screen. I've been having the same problem on my PS5 for about a week, FC25, and now FC26.Solved44KViews285likes1327CommentsPC Controller NOT WORKING online - Why it fails and how to temporarily solve it
If you are facing problems with PC controllers and your controller does this: Works perfectly in offline: moments, squad battles, ... At online matches: rivals, tournaments works for a few seconds and suddenly stops working, you can only pass or shoot Then you have the same problem as me. Apparently its caused by some graphic or screen issue, and not by the controller. Here is a temporarily solution that "works" for me: Go to screen settings and limit your fps to 60hz and turn on VSync, this way your controller should work. I say temporarily solution because I don't find this a real solution, I hope they don't spend again 1 month without fixing this like last year. This problem is similar to last year problem that was causing stuttering, lag and fps drop when someone in the match used L1 dribbling, and it was temporarily solved by limiting fps. This should be fixed ASAP, honestly I don't want to play this game with a terrible 60 fps experience, the game looks horrible and doesn't even look like 60 fps, looks that you are playing a **bleep**ty 30fps game in 2012. I WANT TO PLAY WITH MY 165 MONITOR REFRESH RATE. If this does not get fixed it's an absolutely lame and a joke company, how can I be experimenting the same issue that I had on FC 25 (That lasted months of unplayable gameplay) ON THE RELASE DATE OF FC26! ON THE RELEASE DATEEEE!!!!!!! If you find some setting to improve this, you can share it on this postSolved92KViews188likes1235CommentsPC - kicked out from rıvals games after latest 10/23 update
I've been winning for 2 matches while playing Rivals and suddenly it says the connection is lost and it is transferred to the FUT screen. It says your match will be reviewed and it happens while I'm winning. Am I paying all this money for nothing? What is this game? I want those 2 matches to be returned to me immediately. Just check as much as you want. that's enough EA_Blueberry: Please see this response within this thread5.3KViews186likes126CommentsFC 26 Early Access Tournament Bug
I was playing the Early Access Tournament and while I was in the final and had won, because the game ended after 10:00 AM PST, which is the daily content time, the game didn't count the finals win, but it also did... As you can see in the screenshot, it says that I have won the event, but if you look at the other screenshot, because the game finished after the daily content time it thought I was playing in the first game "Round of 16" instead of the "Finals" I was actually playing in. In one of the other screenshots it also shows that I have 4/5 entries left, which means I indeed have only enter once and won. Besides this being one bug. I can't even access the tournament again to try to attempt to get the rewards because it thinks I had already won it; which I did. But, at the same time it's kind of a big deal that I can't get the limited rewards for early access. If you can please fix this issue fast and allow me to redo the tournament if you don't believe I had won it; or please just give me the rewards for, "Play 5" "Win Tournament." Since I did complete them but the game didn't think I did.5KViews184likes315CommentsRivals Bounty not awarded!

Hi, I’ve been running into a major performance issue in EA FC 26 that makes the game literally unplayable for me. I tried to play RUSH, sometimes I get smooth gameplay, but most of the time the framerate suddenly goes to 5–10 FPS from the very beginning of the match. Even worse, when the match ends, the game stays stuck at 5–10 FPS in the menus as well. I tested Rivals and Offline Kick-off, and the same thing happened. This makes no sense because: My system should handle the game fine I play on LOW graphics settings I’ve optimized settings in both NVIDIA Control Panel and AMD software for max performance Other games (FC 25, BF1, BF2042) run smoothly without any issues My specs: Windows 11 16GB RAM AMD Ryzen 5 5600H GeForce RTX 3050 4GB At this point, I can’t properly play any mode. I’d really appreciate if EA could look into this because it feels like a serious optimization problem. Thanks.28KViews132likes426CommentsSERIOUS BUG RIVALS ELITE
Hello everyone, I'm reporting a serious bug in the rivals mode. Once you reach the elite (you can even win many matches and reach 1000 points), all it takes is one loss and you're demoted to division 1! This causes a lot of stress and makes it impossible to play. I kindly ask for this bug to be fixed since the prizes should be released on Thursday. Thank you.1.3KViews130likes22Comments[Bug] Unable to Renew Player Contracts in Career Mode
Hello, I would like to report a bug I encountered in EA FC 26 Career Mode (Manager). Issue: I am unable to renew the contract of a player who is already in my club, no matter how many times I try. Details: The issue occurs both when starting a brand-new career and when continuing into later seasons (e.g., 5th year). After some time, players end up leaving the club for very low transfer fees, even if I don’t accept it. This completely breaks the career experience. I recorded a video as an example and attached it here. Platform: [PlayStation] Game version: Expected Behavior: I should be able to renew contracts with players in my squad and keep them unless I decide otherwise. Actual Behavior: The game does not allow me to renew contracts at all, and after some time, players leave for cheap transfer fees without my approval. This issue makes Career Mode frustrating. Please fix this as soon as possible, otherwise buying early access feels pointless. Thank you for your support and hard work! Best regards, Highlighting official EA response: Thank you for all your reports. I've asked our Career Mode team about it, but they confirmed, this is working as intended. This has been a recent change in FC 26, where players in the last year of their contract will not be willing to renew their contract right away. Instead, over time, depending on variables like morale and matches played, they can become willing to expand the contract. We've actually highlighted that change in our Career Deep Dive. I'd recommend reading through it all to better understand the intricacies and new changes in FC 26.9.7KViews109likes177CommentsInput delay after new update on PC
First issue: After the update, the game’s online modes have become unplayable. Whenever I join a match, everything is normal for about 5 seconds, and then suddenly there’s massive input delay, making it impossible to play. This issue has only started happening after the latest update. Second issue: I’m playing the first half with a stable 60 FPS, and everything is fine. But as soon as the second half starts, the FPS drops to around 15. I’ve already tried deleting my profile, but it didn’t help. What could be causing this problem? I can’t play FUT Champs because of these issues — ever since the new update, everything has become messy and unstable. We really need a new patch to fix this.Solved18KViews107likes824CommentsNo game modes to select from the main menu - Only News/Upgrade screen

Once again you’ve ruined career mode, now can’t see if a player potential wether there potential to be special or exciting prospect. Career mode is done what’s the point in playing if u don’t know what ur signing from youth scouts and u can’t sign players knowing if there gonna grow or not. Broke the game for no reason AGAIN!!!

The team has looked into it and we’ll be bringing back the player potential indicator in an early January update based on your feedback.

FC 26 running very slow and laggy—performance issues.
Just loaded up the game and tried getting into a kickoff match. All settings on auto, vsync on (but I've tried off too). The game is just running incredible slow in matches. Unlike anything I've seen before. FPS is as high as 105, but it's like I'm playing at 0.25x speed. The game is unplayable for me. Anyone experiencing a similar issue? Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.Solved51KViews84likes250CommentsCareer Mode Black Boots
