AI straight line speed
You simply cannot match the AI in a straight line, even with low downforce and using overtake mode. They seem to have unlimited battery and even when you run a very low downforce setup on a track where it's not necessary to do so they are always faster. It's been an issue since the game launched and was an issue the last couple games. They don't manage the ERS the same and the player and makes it very difficult to race them competitively
F2 qualifying fuel levels bug
In F2 career, there's a bug that significantly increases player fuel level, compared to AI drivers, during qualifying, if player participates in practice session and does anything to the car setup. It makes it really difficult to get a good result during qualifying at a difficulty level that I prefer during the race. I am linking to another report of this bug, 4 MONTHS AGO. Still not fixed. https://forums.ea.com/idea/f1-25-bug-reports-en/bug-using-custom-car-settings/12349131 Get your fuels level together...
BUG using [Custom Car Settings]
When playing F2 Career and changing the car's setup in any way BEFORE qualifying (manually in the car setup menu, by loading a setting, or on the track, for example, by adjusting the brake balance), we have MUCH more fuel in qualifying. If we skip practice or don't change the settings in practice, we have less fuel. In Monaco, we can have fuel for 15.8 laps (when changing the settings) or 6.9 laps (when not changing the settings, i.e., when using one of the 5 preset settings). For comparison, the AI has a fuel level of 3.5 laps. At different tracks, the fuel level in our car varies, but the AI always has the same 3.5 laps. This problem ONLY affects F2 QUALIFYING! (because in F1 we can adjust the fuel level). I noticed the same thing in F1 24! F1 23 also has this problem, but the difference is SMALLER when we change the settings in practice. To achieve better lap times, we need to change the car's settings, and if we do, we're penalized in qualifying (with a heavier car)! Similarly, if we try different settings in practice (or load them), we're penalized with a heavy car in qualifying! This makes the game difficult, especially in Monaco, where it's difficult to make up ground from the back of the grid. This requires a quick fix! Besides, the AI's fuel levels and ours should be equal in qualifying! Fix this in F1 25 and F1 24.Missing Nike Phantom Elite GX And current Adidas boots in EA FC 26
Hello EA FC team, I’ve noticed that the Nike Phantom Elite GX boots, which were available in EA FC 25, are missing from EA FC 26. Many other boot models from previous titles are still included, so I’m wondering why this specific model was removed. The Nike Phantom Elite GX is still widely used by many professional players, and as someone who enjoys recreating real-life authenticity in the game, it feels incomplete without this model. I believe it wouldn’t be too difficult to reintroduce it in a future update. In addition, please consider adding other current and highly popular boots such as the Adidas Predator Elite Laceless and Adidas F50 Elite Laceless, which are currently being used frequently across world football by many top players. Thank you for your attention and for continuously improving the game experience. Best regards, Emircan.CM Story - The Story of Josh McEwen
Wolverhampton Wanderers have confirmed the departure of Vitor Pereira as head coach following their 2-0 away lose to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Wolves currently sit bottom of the Premier League table without a win from their first eight games and look to be favourites for relegation. The club have acted fast in replacing Vitor Periera with unknown manager Josh McEwen taking the reigns must to the disappointment of Wolves fans who are concerned that an unknown manager with no experience has been handed the tough task of saving Wolves from relegation woth a number of supporters clubs already criticising the appointment. A statement from Wolves was released earlier this morning. Wolverhampton Wanderers can confirm that Vitor Pereira has left his position as head coach by mutual consent. The club wishes to express its gratitude to Vitor for his dedication and hard work during his tenure at Molineux. This decision comes after a period in which results have unfortunately fallen short of both the club’s and supporters’ expectations. After careful consideration, the club’s leadership felt that a change was necessary not only to address immediate challenges on the pitch, but also to lay a stronger foundation for the long-term progress and success of Wolverhampton Wanderers. In light of this, the club is pleased to announce the appointment of Josh McEwen, as Vitor’s successor. The club believes that Josh’s fresh approach and vision can help to turn the season around, instil renewed confidence in the squad, and set a positive course for the future. Wolverhampton Wanderers are committed to supporting Josh as he takes on this role and look forward to the next chapter under his leadership. Josh added a brief statement saying “I am delighted to have been given this opportunity to manage Wolves, it is a club that belongs in the Premier league and our whole focus is on helping improve both performance and results on the pitch to ensure the club is still in the Premier League next season. I know concerns have been raised about myself being appointed but I urge our fans to get behind the players and give me the chance to show that I can turn this season around and keep this fantastic football club where they belong.”Unable to change binded buttons

Hello EA Community and Development Team, First, I want to say I'm a fan of the new FC franchise and I'm looking forward to what EA SPORTS FC 26 will bring to the virtual pitch. I'm writing to highlight a feature that feels increasingly essential in today’s gaming landscape: full cross-platform progression. Many of us play on more than one device. For example, I own both a PC and an Xbox. It's a significant pain point to have our progress, especially in commitment-heavy modes like Ultimate Team and Clubs, completely siloed. The time, effort, and money invested feel lost when switching from the desk to the couch. In 2025, for a premier AAA title from a leading publisher like EA, cross-progression is no longer a luxury feature; it’s becoming a standard expectation. It allows players to enjoy the game they paid for (twice), wherever they are, without friction. Even if technical or licensing reasons prevent real-time cross-progression, please consider at least allowing a single, one-time club transfer when players switch platforms. This would help those who buy a new console or PC and don’t want to lose everything they’ve built in the game. It’s a compromise that could make a huge difference for many dedicated players.
