Issues with Transfer Market Access and Rush Game Modes on Nintendo Switch 2
Here's yet another report of being unable to unlock the transfer market in-game as a Nintendo Switch 2 player. Has anyone from EA or the community been able to fix this, or know why these features might not be working? Details below ===== I’ve been playing EA Sports FC 26 Ultimate Team on Nintendo Switch 2 for about a month now, and I still don’t have access to a couple of major features — the Transfer Market and Rush game modes. I’ve contacted EA Support multiple times, and the only response I’ve received is that the issue has been reported to the internal team. I was basically told to wait and hope the developers address it, with no way to track the case. Here’s what’s going on: I’ve played extensively and reached Level 40 in Season 1, so I’ve clearly met normal progression requirements. The Transfer Market remains locked, and the in-game objective to unlock it requires me to complete Rush game mode objectives. The problem with Rush is that whenever I try to find teammates, I never find any, so the matchmaking never completes and I can’t play the mode at all. Because of this, I also can’t complete the objective needed to unlock the Transfer Market. I’ve also seen other forum posts describing the same issues on Nintendo Switch 2, and they don’t appear to have been resolved yet: https://forums.ea.com/discussions/fc-26-technical-issues-en/issue-with-unlocking-transfer-market-in-fc-26-on-nintendo-switch-2/12644406 https://forums.ea.com/discussions/fc-26-technical-issues-en/switch-2-rush-mode-broken-can%E2%80%99t-unlock-transfer-market/12683866 https://forums.ea.com/idea/fc-26-bug-reports-en/cant-find-teammates-on-rush-nintendo-switch-2/12650072 https://forums.ea.com/discussions/fc-26-technical-issues-en/cant-find-teammates-on-rush-nintendo-switch-2/12656041 There appears to be a separate bug about transfer market access on the web and companion app for Switch 2 players. My issue is the inability to get access to the transfer market in any capacity in-game.
Please fix your skill based matchmaking
How am I going against people that are very obviously much better than me and why do I go against them so often I’ve been on the brink of relegation because I’m being put against people that have much much better teams than me and are very obviously better than me please fix your **bleep** game you money hungry company you can’t expect people to spend 60 quid then give them a pile of dog **bleep** you found on the side of the road and stick the name ea fc 26 on the side of it or even keeping the same from last year and pealing off the 25 sticker and putting a fresh 26 sticker half the games mechanics don’t work or theirs an insanely op card move or mechanic or so many bugs that even pro players experience them in big money tournaments and lose out on thousands because of it especially when you advertise you “listened to the fans” when you obviously are not as half the bugs in this game have been around for months and there’s even some bugs Im still experiencing that I had in fc 24EA : The worst company and the worst employees
You are the worst company in the world, a company that only cares about money. You still haven't fixed the game's glitches, AI issues, and rainbow flick. The luck in the game is terrible; every time I open the best packs in an event, no one appears. You repeat players and give priority to girls in the game. Shame on you! The worst company and the worst employees in the entire game. You only listen to the players who pay money, buy points and coins, the streamers, and the pros. But this will be my last year playing the game, and I don't want to buy it again. Every day I regret buying a game like this.
Suggestion: Add Private/Friendly Matchmaking to Rush Clubs like the league
Hi everyone, I’ve been playing the Clubs Rush mode for years now and it’s arguably one of the most fun additions to the franchise recently. However, there is a significant feature missing that would greatly improve the community experience: Private Friendly Matches. Currently, if we want to play against our own club members or a specific group of friends in a 5v5 (4v4 + GK) format, we have to rely on "perfect matchmaking" (trying to search at the same exact time), which rarely works and is very frustrating. Why this is needed: In-Club Tournaments: Many clubs have more than 4-5 members active at once. We want to be able to play against each other to practice or run internal competitions. Competitive Scene: For the Pro Clubs competitive community, being able to set up specific matches against rival teams in Rush would open doors for organized leagues and tournaments. Casual Fun: Sometimes we just want to play with other friends in a controlled environment without the pressure of public rank or random matchmaking. Proposed Solution: Add a "Friendly Match" or "Invite Club" option within the Rush menu, similar to how Friendly Matches work in traditional 11v11 Pro Clubs. A simple "Matchroom Code" system would also work perfectly. This feature would significantly increase the longevity of the mode and keep the community engaged for much longer.

Win a couple of games and EA instantly throws you against a god squad, perfect AI press, auto-defending doing everything for them, while your players suddenly move like they’re stuck in quicksand, can’t complete a 5 yard pass, and watch rebounds fall perfectly to the opponent every single time. Same division means absolutely nothing, skill means nothing, squad building means nothing. The engine decides when you’re allowed to win. This isn’t football, it isn’t competitive, and it definitely isn’t “skill-based”, it’s engagement based manipulation designed to frustrate players into spending money. Stop gaslighting the community, stop pretending this mode has integrity, and stop calling this trash competitive. FC 26 Ultimate Team is a rigged casino dressed up as a football game.FC26 Rush
Hi EA, please look into the bots and senseless accounts that are spooling in FC26 Rush. These days, 3 out of the 4 players in Rush are either bots or accounts not intending to play an actual game. They just stand around and not do anything. It has reached a point that I dont bother with FC26 Rush anymore.. even for it's rewards.
