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.
