FC 26 PC – Massive in-game stuttering after the latest update

Yeah, performance really tanked after the update. Try switching from DX12 to DX11 in the launcher — it helped me a bit with the stuttering. Also, delete the cache folder under Documents/EA Sports FC 26

Ea don't care, otherwise they wouldn't release this rubbish in the first place. I  can play any other high end game on 4k ultra at 120hz, without any issues whatsoever, yet I had to alter lots of pc settings just to make this game remotely playable, just for EA  to make it worse again with another update aimed at console players. I  will never buy another EA game again without making sure it works properly first.

well, the issue was that they removed the 300 fps limit, so now the game can goes to 500 or 600 fps on a system like ours. so I had to cap fps to 320 to get the less input lag possible ( performance side, because on server side .. lol )

I had similar kind of issue after the update and I just fixed mine so I am here to tell you what I did, might help some. 

Context:- my game used to run fine. Just 2 days ago the last day of last season my game became unplayable. It starts fine with a little stuttering then gradually it becomes worse to being unplayable. Stutters, slow motion etc all at once. I tried everything, updated every drivers tried different graphics settings. None worked. 

I saw this comment on yt and reddit it was kinda dumb thought why not give it a shot. I turned off my wireless xbox controller and plugged it again via usb. It fixed now wtf hahaha. The comment said to disconnect your controller and connect it again. So I basically did that and it worked. Soo stupid.

Same specs same problem…

Same. They broke the **bleep** game.

I have a 5080 and 9800x3d. The game simply ran perfectly since day 1. Zero problems. Now it's completely unplayable. massive stuttering no matter the settings. I even format C: which obviously did nothing because the game is broken my computer.

whatever you did, just revert it, because you did not stabilized anything, you just broke it. REVER IT NOW.

Yoo bro i found a fix. You need to put refresh rate and refresh rate limiter on the same fps. I had mine usually on 360 and unlimited. But the latest patch makes it unplayeble. Ive put both on 240fps. And now it works fine. Its a shame but we got to fix stuff like this ourselfs cuz EA dont care.

same bro i have insane input delay. you can check it the best with a corner or free kick. just tap your left stick once and count how long it takes to move it. so frustrating its literally unplayable atm. 

ai defending became worse the dont mark or track back. and my attackers all stand behind opponent defenders.

and dont let me start about the dribbling and responsiveness.... like whats the point of having technical if you cant dribble. (i am happy that fidget spinning cancer is gone tho)
