No New Kits in Four Consecutive Title Updates

Since the release of Title Update 5 on November 19th, there have not been any new third, fourth, or goalkeeper kits added to the game. The one solitary change that has been noticed in the jersey sponsor logo to Sheffield United. In the current state of the game, with broken gameplay, crashing systems, horrific defense, dumbed down user AI attack, poor goalkeeping, inability to properly edit or save tactics and formations, and now after Title Update 9, broken stadium scans that were functioning properly for over a year, the development team at EA should at least add club kit options, while working on patching game issues. Currently, the season in most leagues is past the halfway point, the game has been released for five months, and a large number of top-flight clubs are missing basic third kit options, not to mention over a dozen fourth kit choices, used in real-life matches, since October. Clubs missing third kit options, include Sporting CP, Real Sociedad, Rayo Vallecano, Independiente, half of the clubs in French Ligue One (ten clubs), all clubs in the English Championship (every year for the past decade there have been two or three with third kit options at the minimum), and all clubs in La Liga Hypermotion (league specifically sponsored by EA Sports, and in EA FC 24, Real Valladolid had four kit options in the secondary league). In addition, all clubs in the Bundesliga now have a four option, and was rumored to be included in this game more than two months ago. While real stadium scans and player face scans are tedious and slow in releasing, adding kit options is far less resource consuming, and adds content to all game modes. Any update to the game is welcome if the changes are tested (rarely, if ever are, and usually introduce new bugs/glitches), what is the point of adding dozens of new boots, which are barely visible on-screen, when all clubs have the same outdated kit options?

With the significant decrease in revenue as reported by numerous sources over the past three weeks for the third financial quarter, EA ownership to take heed to the desires of the community for producing better quality games, and updating them accordingly. At the current rate, there is a real possibility that more than half of the customer base will forgo pre-order sales of EA FC 26, if the development team does not vastly improve game content, gameplay mechanics, server/connection issues for online players, and game breaking crashes, delayed menus, and obvious cheating/'scrip****', referee logic, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc (the entire community, and anyone who has played more than two matches knows all about the game engine over the past ten or more years).
