Severe and persistent performance drop after halftime or between matches (PC)
Hello I am experiencing a severe and persistent performance issue in EA SPORTS FC 26 on PC The game runs normally during the first half of matches however after halftime or when transitioning between matches or menus the performance randomly drops to an unplayable level Once this issue is triggered the performance does not recover even after gameplay resumes and the only way to resolve it is to completely restart the game This problem does not occur every time which makes it unpredictable but when it happens it affects the entire session regardless of the game mode I have tested different graphics settings and configurations and the issue appears to be independent of in game settings I have also noticed that other PC players report very similar behavior especially related to match transitions and menus This makes the game unreliable to play as sessions can become unplayable at random points I hope this issue can be investigated as it seems to be related to how the game handles match transitions rather than hardware performance.
