FPS DROP

I am experiencing a critical performance bug in FC26 on PC that makes the game effectively unplayable. In the middle of a match, FPS suddenly drops to 5–15 FPS and stays there for the rest of the match. After the match ends, the low FPS continues in the main menu as well. The only way to fix it is to fully close the game and restart. This does not look like an isolated configuration problem. A very large portion of PC players report the same behavior, and it has been present since the game launched. The fact that such a widespread, match-breaking performance issue has remained unresolved for so long is unacceptable for a paid title and reflects poorly on QA and prioritization.

System info: CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-13400F (2.50 GHz)

GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti

RAM: 32 GB

Storage: Game installed on an M.2 SSD

Platform: PC (Windows)

Please confirm this issue is being treated as a high-priority hotfix item. Provide an official update on the root cause and a clear timeframe for a fix. I can provide logs/diagnostic files if needed—please specify which files you want.

    i have that problem since the beginning, with rtx 3050 ti ... EA at her best 

  • I have the same issue and the only way I find to kinda fix it is:

    1 When you start ultimate team, go to moments, play any moments and when you finish and go back to the menu you will have the FPS dropped already

    2 leave ultimate team and go to settings and graphics and reset to default, save and go back, as soon as you go back FPS should be normal again. Go again into graphics and set the graphics you are using, in my case I use medium. 

    3 you can go back into ultimate team and there should be no problem, there are rare cases when it happens again, you just need to repeat the process

    I hope this works for you
