FC27 Bug: Lobbed Through Balls Not Working Properly With Custom Control Settings

I’ve played over 100 matches on FC 27 using my custom controller settings, and there’s a frustrating issue with lobbed through balls that keeps ruining my attacking opportunities.

I have my lobbed through ball set to L2 + Triangle instead of the default L1 + Triangle.

The problem is that only about 60% of the time does the game actually register a lobbed through ball. The other 40%, my player does a regular ground through ball even though I’m pressing L2 + Triangle.

I’ve tested this with multiple controllers, and the same issue happens. However, when I switch to Classic settings and use L1 + Triangle, the lobbed through ball works 100% of the time.

What’s even more frustrating is that I used the exact same custom settings in FC 26 and never had this problem. It worked perfectly every time.

This has cost me so many attacking opportunities because instead of sending the ball over the defenders to my striker, the game decides to do a ground through ball that gets intercepted. It’s especially frustrating in competitive matches when one bad pass can change the entire game.

EA, please look into this and fix it. Custom controller settings should work just as reliably as Classic settings. I’ve played more than enough matches and tested different controllers to know something isn’t working correctly.
