Frequent speed lag episodes after the latest patch 1.6.2
Am I the only one on PC experiencing these annoying speed lag episodes? The game freezes for 1-2 seconds and then goes full speed to recover the "lost action". This problem started exactly after installing patch 1.6.2 and happens on both UT and Clubs 1-3 times per match... the game was practically perfect before and I've never had any problems like this since FIFA 12. Is anyone in my situation? I've already tried various "fixes" but they don't help.
Game Stutters After Latest Update - PC
Since the updating the game today i have noticed the game stuttering severely at random intervals while in play. The game will stutter and freeze for around a second before continuing as normal but severely throws off any attempt at control during this period impacting gameplay. It seems to effect all game modes (Career, Kick off and online) and happens 1-3 times a game. The game ran without issue for me before this latest update and as nothing else has changed i can only assume it to be the cause. Im on a RTX 4080 and i7 12700k and the game runs at a solid 144fps (capped) when it is not having these random stutters. I have tried changing some settings such as switching to borderless screen, changing the FPS cap but nothing seems to have any effect.FC26 is getting suck and sucker for PC players. It’s officially unplayable.
I’m honestly done. I am not even going to complain about the garbage gameplay or the scam pack weight anymore. Right now, the game is literally broken to a point where it cannot be played normally. Ever since the recent updates, every single match has become a nightmare. I am constantly getting: 1. Controller keeping frozen for a few seconds mid-game (totally lose control of my players). 2. Screen frozen for half a second in EVERY SINGLE GAME, and yes, even when I am just playing offline with AI. The worst part? None of these issues existed at launch. The game worked fine on day one, but your patches are literally making the game worse and worse every single week. Don't even tell me to troubleshoot. I have tried every single universal method suggested by those all-knowing AIs and community guides. Clean reinstall, controller settings, cache clearing—absolutely nothing works. We paid full price for this trash, yet PC players are treated like garbage with zero optimization. Am I the only one getting these constant controller and screen freezes? Fix your game, EA.
FC 26 FREEZING PROBLEM
I've had a problem since I first bought the game. After opening it, about 3 or 4 minutes later, the game suddenly freezes unexpectedly, and this also locks up the computer. Since no keys work, I'm forced to shut down and restart the computer. I can't play the game. Please help!😭😭
Severe Performance Drop After Halftime or Returning to Menus (PC)
Hello EA Team, I would like to report a performance issue in EA SPORTS FC 26 on PC. The game runs perfectly smooth during online Seasons and Online Friendlies. However, after halftime or when I return to the menu at the end of a match, the game suddenly becomes very slow and laggy. This does not happen every match. Sometimes it appears after playing 3–4 consecutive matches, and sometimes it happens after just one match. The strange part is that if I completely restart the game, everything becomes smooth again until the issue returns. This makes me believe there may be a memory leak, VRAM/cache management issue, or another optimization problem related to the menus after matches. Platform: PC Game Modes: Online Seasons, Online Friendlies Steps to Reproduce: Launch the game. Play Online Seasons or Online Friendlies. Go to the halftime menu or finish a match and return to the main menu. After several matches (or sometimes even after one match), the game becomes noticeably slow. Restarting the game completely fixes the issue until it happens again. Please investigate this issue, as it significantly affects the gameplay experience. Thank you.Club friendlies - Ping issues
After the last update, EA added more servers to the server list in the settings section in pro clubs. When we play friendlies against other clubs, it does not matter what server we are on, we have been getting HORRIBLE ping. To the point where it’s unplayable sometimes. I would normally get 15-20 on east ping and now EVERY game is 150+ . The ping is also unstable. Last night every 3-4 seconds the game would skip. Ea made a post on Twitter saying they were aware of the situation but we have not received an update in DAYS! Please let us know what we need to do or when we can expect a resolution.Ea loading issue

Hello, I am experiencing a severe and persistent issue with EA Sports FC 26 on PC. The game constantly stutters and freezes for a fraction of a second, exactly every single second. This micro-stuttering occurs everywhere—both in the main menus and during active gameplay/matches. My hardware meets the recommended requirements, and I am confident this is a software/hardware conflict with the game engine or anti-cheat. My PC Specifications: CPU: Intel Core i5-12400F (6 P-cores, no E-cores) GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT RAM: 32 GB RAM OS: Windows 11 Monitor: MSI G321CQP E2 (165Hz) Everything I have already tried to fix the issue (none of these worked): Controller Connection: I completely turned off Bluetooth in Windows and connected my DualShock 4 controller exclusively via a reliable USB cable. Audio Conflict: I disabled the controller's audio output device in Windows Device Manager and ensured Windows audio is routed only to my main speakers/headphones. AMD Software Settings: In the AMD Adrenalin profile for FC 26, I turned off Radeon Anti-Lag, Chill, and Boost. I enabled AMD FreeSync and forced "Wait for Vertical Refresh" (VSync) to "Always On". I also reset the Shader Cache. In-game Graphics Settings: I matched the monitor's refresh rate by setting it to 165Hz both in Windows and in the game. In-game VSync is OFF and Frame Rate Limit is set to "No Limit" (as recommended for FreeSync). I also tried changing the refresh rates to 120Hz on both sides. Windows Graphics Settings: I manually added the actual "FC26.exe" file (not the desktop shortcut URL) to Windows Graphics settings and forced it to "High Performance" using my RX 6700 XT. I also disabled Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) in Windows. Game & Anti-Cheat Reinstallation: I uninstalled and reinstalled the EA Anti-Cheat component as an Administrator from the game directory. I also tried launching the game directly via "FC26.exe" as an Administrator. Steam Launch Options: I tried forcing DirectX 12 by using the -dx12 command in the Steam launch options. Despite all these optimization tweaks, the exact 1-second looping stutter remains. The only exception was once when the game stuttered for the first minute (likely compiling shaders) and then ran perfectly smooth for one session, but upon restarting, the permanent stutter returned. Please investigate this issue, as the PC version seems to have severe optimization and stability loops on certain hardware configurations. I look forward to your guidance. Thank you.
FC 26 is stuck on the splash screen
FC 26 is stuck on the splash screen and won't open again. My computer is Windows 11, and I downloaded the game from EA App. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but it still won't work. I also reinstalled EA AntiCheat, but it still won't work. I need a solution as soon as possible.
