Title: FC26 Ultimate Team – Scripted or Just Comedy? 😅
I’ve been playing Ultimate Team for years, but what’s happening in FC26 lately feels less like football and more like a comedy show. In many matches, I can almost tell who will win within the first minute. Not because my opponent is better, but because the game suddenly decides which team will receive the “special powers” for that match. Usually it’s my opponent… although to be fair, sometimes I feel the advantage on my side too. That’s what makes it obvious. The game often feels heavily driven by AI, and sometimes it’s so exaggerated that it becomes funny. Here are some highlights: 1️⃣ Player Positioning (My players become very polite) In defense they kindly open spaces for the opponent like VIP guests. In attack, my strikers love to stand behind defenders or hug them tightly. When I trigger runs forward, they either ignore the command or run straight toward the defender so passing becomes impossible. 2️⃣ Passing (Express delivery to the worst option) My passes often travel in slow motion, and somehow the ball always chooses the most heavily marked teammate on the pitch. 3️⃣ Player Speed (Pace is apparently optional) Even with the fastest players in the game, they suddenly run like they’re carrying groceries while the opponent’s defenders turn into Olympic sprinters. 4️⃣ Defensive Duels (Softest defenders in football history) Slow reactions, strange tackling animations, random positioning… and when you finally reach the attacker, the defender becomes surprisingly gentle. 5️⃣ Interceptions (AI Ballon d’Or candidates) Opponent passes go through my team like magic. But when I pass, suddenly an AI defender I didn’t even notice becomes prime Maldini and perfectly cuts the passing lane. And let’s not even start with striker positioning and offsides… The funniest part? I actually contacted support multiple times. They said they would investigate the issue… and then closed the case with no reply. I also messaged the community manager twice, but apparently those messages went into the same black hole as my through balls. So now I’m curious: Is anyone else experiencing these mysterious in-match advantages and AI hero moments? Or have I just been selected for the FC26 comedy mode? 😄Roy Makaay doesn't appear
Has anyone experienced the same problem as me? I bought Roy Makaay from the transfer market, but he doesn’t appear in the club. Then two days later I got him from packs, and he still didn’t appear in the club. I contacted technical support and they said that I rejected him when he appeared and that he can’t be restored. That’s completely ridiculous. What about the purchase from the transfer market then? I guess maybe someone else is secretly using my account and rejecting Roy Makaay for me 🤣.disappointed with the gameplay
I purchased EA Sports FC 26 on Xbox and I am very disappointed with the gameplay. Passing mechanics feel broken and unrealistic because almost every pass is intercepted no matter the situation. The gameplay feels unresponsive and frustrating, making the game very difficult to enjoy. I paid full price for this game and expected a much better gameplay experience. Please review the gameplay mechanics and provide fixes or updates because many players feel that the game is not balanced.
Fc 26 ultimate team/transfer market
Hello, my Transfer Market has been blocked for coin transferring but I have never bought or transferred coins. I already sent appeals that were rejected. Could you please manually review my account activity once more? I have always played fairly and I believe this may be a mistake.
Mass False Bans for “Balance Transfer” on PC
Throwback to 24.12.25, when EA’s automated detection system flagged thousands of PlayStation accounts for “balance transfer.” After 8–10 hours, they fixed the issue and unbanned everyone with a single click. Everyone thought the problem was resolved, the Wildcards promo continued, and the money kept flowing. Now, three weeks later, guess what’s happening on PC? Exactly the same thing that happened on Christmas Eve. Multiple accounts in my community have been banned over the span of just two days. Casual players, traders — you name it. I even tested the issue myself by hopping onto unused accounts, trading a few cards, and playing a couple of Rivals games. And guess what? After about 10 hours of normal gameplay, I got banned for literally no reason. We didn’t sell coins. Most of us didn’t use any external web app add-ons or bots. Just regular Weekend League gameplay with some trading on the side to improve our teams — literally using the in-game market as intended. My friends and I did some research to figure out what might have caused this. We reviewed the cards we bought and sold, as well as our profits and losses. Across all 14 accounts, there was exactly one common card purchased on every single account: Ibanez Winter Wildcard. The point of this post is to make this issue public and hopefully get it noticed by someone at EA. Many people have lost their time, money, and nerves. EA Help’s policy is based almost entirely on automated responses, so when you try to appeal a ban, you’re stuck resending the same message only to get rejected by a bot 24 hours later. It’s incredibly frustrating. I've already made a post on Reddit and X both got quite a big attention, but still no action by EA. So please, if you’re in the same situation, upvote this post. Feel free to comment about your experience with EA Help, and if you managed to get unbanned, let us know how you did it. Fellow EA FC 26 players — cheers.Not getting wins when the opponent quits
Please can something be done about players quitting the game when they're losing and the opponent does not get the win. I play online Seasons and almost every game the opponent quits when I am in a winning position. They either wait till 80+ minutes to quit or if they're losing by a big scoreline, they will quit the game immediately and I will not get the win nor will there be a record to show I played that opponent. Sometimes they will cheat by pausing the game, do something to quit and a message will show "you have lost connection to your opponent..." Sometimes the disconnection will be immediately after you score (almost instantly) and you will not get the win and there will be no record of that game. And finally, they also cheat by stop playing after you score. The game will restart from the centre circle and the opponent will not move at all, then after approximately a minute you will lose connection to your opponent and not get the win etc. The level of frustration this causes when people are doing it almost every game is immense and I will not play online Seasons anymore until this issue is fixed. I hope EA will do something about it.Xbox FC26 Mass “Coin Distribution” Permanent Bans
