The PC version of FC 26 is unplayable

The PC version of FC 26 is unplayable; it's slow and the FPS drops in the second half.

After update V1.4.3, the FPS drop issue was resolved, and the game played normally.

However, subsequent updates brought back the lag and FPS drop. The problem lies with your game, not with PC players. This issue has existed since the game's launch six months ago and hasn't been seriously addressed. This is the worst installment in the series; the stability issues are still unresolved, especially considering the price. I hope the development team will fix this and not ignore PC players. If they can't fix it, they should refund PC players.

    Hello, The game has a bug where it automatically resets the settings to ultra every time the game is started. I had the same problems too. First, set the settings you play well with in the eafc 26 menu, either from the nvidia app or directly from the fcsetup.ini file. Then, try setting the configuration files (fcsetup.ini, fcsetup_default.ini, overrideAutodetect.lua) to read-only first, and then deny them write access for each user. That's how I solved it. However, I think the biggest problems or the settings that should be lowered are the rendering scale (even lowering the normal resolution to 720p, 1080p caused a drop in fps with the rendering scale at 100), Ambient Occlusion to medium-low, and setting Hair Strands to off. I hope this helps you solve the problem.

  • Yeah, I deleted it and went back to FC25 - and a couple of days ago decided to try FC26 again. I am not that bad in FC, but when playing FC26 online, I can't even take the ball from the opponent. I had 1-2 minutes of good play during the end of a match once. Six games in, I give up. I have better things to do than fighting menu settings. FC25 is fun, FC26 sucks - as it doesn't work on my PC.
