A New Single-Player Mode Based on Real Football
FC 27 – Real-Life Season Mode Proposal A New Single-Player Mode Based on Real Football I would like to suggest a new single-player mode for EA SPORTS FC 27 that could make the game feel much more connected to real-world football. The idea is to create a Real-Life Season Mode, where the player can choose any real club or national team and play through the actual football season against the CPU. How the Mode Would Work The player chooses a real team, such as Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, or any other licensed club. The game then creates a season based on that team’s real competitions and schedule, including: Domestic league Domestic cups UEFA Champions League UEFA Europa League UEFA Conference League Domestic and European Super Cups Other official competitions the club qualifies for The matches would follow the team’s real-life fixtures and competition structure as closely as possible. The Most Important Feature: Live Updates The biggest advantage of this mode would be that the season does not need to be restarted when a new game update is released. For example, if I start a Barcelona season today and continue playing for several months, the same save should automatically receive: Real-life transfers Updated squads New player ratings New boots New kits Player appearances and changes Updated competition information Gameplay improvements Other live FC updates The updates should be applied to the existing season rather than forcing the player to start a new tournament from the beginning. Example Imagine I start playing Barcelona’s 2026/27 season. I play the first few months and save my progress. EA then releases a major update containing new transfers, boots, kits, player ratings, gameplay improvements, and other content. Instead of telling me to start a new tournament, the update would simply be applied to my existing season. I could continue from exactly where I stopped. This would make the game feel like a living football season rather than a static career save. Why I Think This Would Be Special This mode would give players the feeling that they are actually participating in the current football season. Every time they play, they would know that their club is following the same competitions and football calendar as the real team. It would also provide a strong reason for single-player players to keep coming back throughout the entire football season. I believe this could become one of the most enjoyable single-player modes in EA SPORTS FC. Please consider this idea for FC 27 or a future FC title. Thank you for listening to the community and continuing to improve EA SPORTS FC.
THE GOALKEEPER **bleep**
For all that is most sacred, correct the goalkeepers immediately, don't make any difference whether my FUT goalkeeper is bronze level or if he is a Curtois or Donnarumma, he is equally useless in the game, every shot is a goal, low chuets into the goalkeeper's corner are an automatic goal, I have never seen goalkeepers this bad
Feedback
Hello EA, I’m one of the top 300 players in the world, and I’m frustrated with two major issues in FC 27. First, Online Seasons feels scripted. Sometimes my players feel like they have a 40 overall rating: poor movement, stupid decisions, and no ability to build up properly. The inconsistency makes it feel like the game is deciding how well my team performs instead of my inputs and decisions. Second, in Clubs Drop-Ins, captaincy keeps going to players who cannot defend or handle the responsibility. This leaves everyone else at the mercy of a captain whose poor defending ruins the match for the whole team. Please address the inconsistent gameplay in Online Seasons and improve how captaincy is assigned in Drop-Ins. These issues make the game frustrating even for experienced players competing at a high level. Regards, X-Sinner93FC 27 Defending – Please Bring Back AI Defending and Legacy Defending
EA, I want to give serious feedback about the current defending system in FC 27. My biggest concern is that defending has been made almost completely manual, while attacking still relies heavily on AI-controlled movement and positioning. If attacking AI is allowed to make intelligent runs, create space, position itself and react to situations without the user directly controlling every player, why should defending be forced to be almost completely manual? Football is a team sport. In real football, defenders automatically maintain their shape, track runners, cover spaces, close passing lanes and react to attacking movements. The user should influence the defense, but the AI should still be capable of behaving intelligently. Right now, removing so much defensive AI creates huge spaces on the pitch. Attackers can constantly run into those spaces, spin around defenders and dribble through situations that don’t feel like realistic football. Defending can start to feel less like reading the game and more like trying to manually control every single defensive movement. I understand that some players complained about AI defending in FC 26. But if AI defending was too strong, the solution should have been to balance it, not remove so much of it that the opposite problem is created. There is also an important inconsistency here. If players are told that they must manually defend because “skill” means controlling every defensive action, then why isn’t attacking treated the same way? Why can attacking players make intelligent AI runs, position themselves and create opportunities without the user manually controlling them? And if AI defending was removed to make matches more realistic, we should also question whether the current result actually feels realistic when high-level matches can turn into extremely high-scoring games with huge amounts of space. I am asking EA to seriously reconsider the current system. Please bring back: Stronger AI defensive positioning Better defensive shape and spacing AI tracking and covering More effective physical defending Bruiser AI assistance that allows defenders to react naturally Legacy Defending Legacy Defending as an option in Ultimate Team I am not saying manual defending should disappear as an option for players who enjoy it. I am saying that players who want a more traditional football experience should also have a choice. Please allow Legacy Defending in Ultimate Team. Let players choose the defensive system they enjoy. If someone wants completely manual defending, they can use it. If someone wants AI-assisted/Legacy Defending, they should be able to use that too. The goal should be to make FC 27 feel like football—not to force every player into one particular interpretation of what “skill” should mean. Please listen to the players who want AI-assisted defending and give us the choice. I’d submit this version rather than the earlier one. It makes your central argument very difficult to reduce to simply “you need to learn how to defend,” because you’re specifically addressing the difference between how EA treats attacking AI and defensive AI.I see we still have a terrible game.
Why has passing been made even worse? Whilst spinning around has become easier. Its ridiculous. Are they scared that actually makingspace with passing like an actual game of football is too difficult? Its just not balanced. Poor Keepers still decide the game. Who is this for? Are you incompetent at making a good game? But no the fidget spinners love it so its fine. This game is trashDid the referee forget the cards?
I’ve played about 125 hours now and have been tackled in various ways, some completely fair but I haven't seen a single red card since I started playing. A 1v1 against the keeper, last man tackled from behind and kills me, results in a penalty and it's a yellow card, and now it's a 50/50 for a goal. I just played against someone who made 138 tackles and got 2 yellow cards. It seems that in the long run this can be exploited, and it kills the sense of flair one wants to create during a match. not hating on 138 numer but the 2 cardsThe downfall of fifa
Surely i’m not the only one to notice the downfall of this game this year the gameplay is just atrocious Every time i pass it’s either to the opposition or it’s gone of the pitch every time i dribble the defenders automatically get the ball everytime i shoot it get blocked every time i defend,my defenders just seem to watch the ball go past It’s not just the gameplay it’s the skill based matchmaking aswell for champs etc i have currently got 8 losses from 8 games and the people im coming up against are 7-1. 6-2 etc i have played this game for nearly 10 years now and never got under 6 wins in champs I don’t think i have ever struggled to adapt to gameplay like this In comparison to the 100+ games i have played I don’t get it what has changed what am i doing wrong? The game that was once enjoyable and fair.🥹Goal keeper Movement
Hi Ea team,, just wanted to give my review on EA FC 27 so far, The game feels really good overall. However, I think you guys should consider bringing back goalkeeper movement. Defending is already quite difficult, so having some control over the goalkeeper would give players another defensive option, especially in one-on-one situations. If bringing back full goalkeeper movement isn’t the direction you want to take, maybe consider introducing it as a goalkeeper PlayStyle or PlayStyle+. That way, it adds another tactical element without making goalkeeper movement too powerful. Overall, I’m enjoying the gameplay, I just think defending could use a little help from the goalkeeper.Subject: Excessive difficulty gap between Professional and World Class
I play FC 27 against the CPU. Moving from Professional to World Class causes a sudden and excessive increase in difficulty. I did not struggle this much at World Class difficulty in FC 26. The gap makes it difficult to find a balanced and enjoyable challenge. Please review the difficulty progression between Professional and World Class, particularly the CPU’s defensive pressure and effectiveness. I am asking for a smoother difficulty progression while keeping World Class challenging.
