Guys, the same idea works for me. STEAM USERS SHOULD TRY THIS METHOD:
- Go to Steam and check your files (as all methods suggest). As a result, you will see that "3 files should be downloaded again".
- Open Program files/EA/AC and press play in Steam. Now you need to press stop playing (I play in my native language so I don't know the English original word, but you will understand) when you see those files in your folder Program files/EA/AC will change the date to 11/07/2024. In general, you should press stop playing before ea app loading screen pops up.
- When your folder Program files/EA/AC has 3 files dated 11/07/2024 and 1 more file (don't care about the date) you should press playing in Steam WITHOUT CONECTION TO THE INTERNET (Ea anticheat will not be able to update itself). I personally disconnected my wi-fi connection and put my ea app in offline regime (I guess, it would be better to launch ea app before starting playing EA FC 25 and press ''play offline'' first of all).
- I launched EA FC 25 in offline mode. After I was in menu, I went back to windows and turned everything on (wi-fi, ea app to online etc.)
- In 2 matches in rivals, I have not experienced any stuttering (however, my gameplay was a bit slower than always. Mb ea servers are the problem here). And my files are still dated 11/07/2024.
- I guess that we should repeat this "launching offline" method every time before EA finds the fix (hopefully).
Internally on the reproduction of the stuttering issue this version you're rolling back to doesn't fix it for our testers, so we've been having some difficulty making sure that what we're seeing internally matches what you are.
We'll get this specific version into our tester's hands for validation.
I'll be handing back comms on this to our official community team but I'm keeping them in the loop now so we're all on the same page.
Thanks, all.
- 1 year agoHello anti cheat, in my case the stuttering can go away but I always have input delay when I am in vertical sync, could you look at that? thank you

@AntiCheatWard so are we safe to do this method without risking any ban?
- 1 year ago
@AntiCheatWardWell the problem with the anticheat has been there since the game launched, the difference is in how much it spikes.
Launch anticheat(+system) might cause spikes of maybe 10-20% of your CPU whilst the current version goes over 50%. That's the difference between a 0.5 second freeze or a bit of stutter (or nothing if your PC is good enough) and 4 seconds of being frozen followed by speedup.
Good luck with the testing.

So, when will we have a fix, an update? It's almost a month since we cannot play the game (we paid for!!!) properly. No weekend league, no rivals, no tokens, no coins, no nothing, this period as it was an unplayable game. Even a compensation, which we surely deserve, is useless now.
So, when can we play this game normally?

@AntiCheatWardThe fix got rid of 80% of stuttering and speed lags but it there some minor hickups and hitches here snd there the game was running so smoothly on update 4 man maybe check the version of anticheat that came with update 4 gameplay was perfect

Thanks, all.Note that the temporary solution with early November version didn't work out for me, still stutters and lags, despite i have a decent PC (5800x cpu, 32gb ram, Rtx 4070ti gpu). That's to say, beside that your team got to go deeper when fixing the issue.
So I'm waiting for a proper update. 🤞

@AntiCheatWard @EA_Vendcera @EA_Pulsar I haven't played a single game since a month. Hoping the upcoming update makes the PC version responsive and optimized.
- 1 year ago@AntiCheatWard I still have some problems where players don't obey my commands when I want to go one way they go the other, and there are still some very light crashes, but in terms of crashes it's already 80% better than before, so the problem is definitely the anti cheat, fix this soon

Hi guys,
Did you guys tried repairing anti cheat,From AC folder you can open that exe file anti cheat installer file,and select fc 25 from list of games there, and click repair.
Try it to see how it goes,Also don't ⛔ go for high performance mode in Nvidia or in your pc settings,Choose balanced everywhere to reduce cpu usage
Else my video has helped a many people, if someone's still having this issue,I hope this help someone:

@AntiCheatWard
It's absolutely absurd that in 2024, a game can remain unplayable for 3-4 weeks after an update, and this is the first meaningful communication we're getting from you. It's shocking that the community found a workaround faster than the developers could even identify the issue.The lack of timely response and transparency is unacceptable from a company of this size. The PC community is eagerly awaiting compensation for having to endure this experience in your game.

@AntiCheatWard At least admit you made a mistake, and you are working on a fix for the PC users. We are okay waiting for a fix, we accept we are all humans, and we all make mistakes but not admitting/ addressing it is beyond shameless.
- 1 year agoWe were robbed, my brothers. No more comments. They don’t care. Don’t we have dignity? Let them go to hell. Next year, I swear that I won’t buy it even if it costs one cent.
- 29bs1 year agoSeasoned Rookie@AntiCheatWard It is January 7 and the problem is still not solved! That's how long we have to wait for a bitter update?
- 1 year ago
games has been out for 102 days and this bug has affected us for 49 days, I think the bug has been around for longer and affecting people with lower spec's and the TU5' ish patch started affecting people that have PC's above recommended spec's
we are basically at 50% of playable days affected by this

Just got email for voting for Team of the Year let's hope we get to enjoy this if not well completely miss out on it (4month compensation) at this point I really hope they don't go another month of silence 🙏

Dear community managers, @EA_Pulsar @EA_Aljo @EA_Barry @EA_Mako @AntiCheatWard please be transparent about this issue and give us an update. It has been so long and we haven't heard a word. Please inform the developers that anticheat is the root cause of this lags and stutters on the PC version. I know you guys do read all of the replies so I hope you can understand and bring us a quick fix as soon as possible.
