Huge FPS drops and high temperature on Galaxy S25 Plus

Hello EA Support Team,

​I am writing to report a critical optimization issue and a potential severe memory leak in FC Mobile that makes the game completely unplayable on high-end flagship devices.

​Device Specifications:

​Device: Samsung Galaxy S25+

​Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite (Oryon CPU architecture)

​OS: Android 16

​The Problem:

I run the game on Medium settings, yet randomly during matches, the device starts overheating drastically. The temperature rises by approximately 1°C every 10 seconds until it reaches 50°C. Simultaneously, the frame rate drops by 10 FPS every few seconds until the game completely chugs down to 1 FPS. This intense thermal throttling happens out of nowhere and completely freezes the device.

​Proof of Poor Optimization:

This is strictly an issue with FC Mobile's optimization for the new Snapdragon 8 Elite architecture. To test my hardware, I run heavy, next-gen graphical games like Racing Master on absolute maximum settings for hours; the game runs flawlessly at a stable frame rate, and the device temperature never exceeds 35°C.

​The issue in FC Mobile is likely a major memory leak or an unoptimized CPU thread utilization that overloads a single core, causing immediate thermal panic on the system level.

​Standard troubleshooting steps (clearing cache, reinstalling the game, lowering settings) do absolutely nothing to resolve this. The game desperately needs a stability patch compatibility update for the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor.

​Please escalate this detailed report to the development and engineering team for a hotfix.

​Thank you.

    Hi MN1MX10sbmandw​. Thanks for the detailed feedback and report. We'll share this information with the team.

    Can you let us know if this happens in a specific game mode, at a particular point in matches, or randomly? Also, does lowering the FPS cap help reduce the overheating or FPS drops in your case?
