Controller disconnecting on PC
Fix this game on PC asap. I keep getting disconnection bans because of the broken game FC 26 is, the same FC 25 was. My controller is brand new and does not have any problems with any game other this garbage. It is hit or miss if my controller works. I can't move my player at all, then it kicks me out for inactivity and then get 10 minute bans. Also, the seasonal premium gifts are a joke lmao 70 dollars for a broken game ain't enough profit I guess hu lol
EA FC Needs Fixing — Freedom, Balance, and Basic Functionality Are Gone
Chemistry and Positions EA needs to drop the "realism" gimmick. This is a game, not a simulation. It makes no sense that a professional RW cant play LW because of position locks. Top athletes can adapt - maybe less effective, but still functional. The old chemistry drop (10 to 7) made far more sense. Let us manage our own club. If a CM can play CDM/CAM or a RW can play LW, it should be our tactical choice - not a system restriction. Bring back managerial freedom. Menus and Game Modes Neglect Every year we are told menus are revamped, yet they are never finished. Once sales targets are met, support stops. We were promised stadium customization back in 2021. Four years later, we still cant search or filter stadiums, kits, or badges. Moments mode was meant to be a fast, fun alternative to Squad Battles. It hasnt been updated for months - no new rewards, no new objectives. Formations and Tactical Imbalance Formation behavior has hit rock bottom. Old, balanced systems are now unplayable because of "Roles" and neglected tactical tuning. 4-3-2-1 needs a narrow variant with a CDM and inside forwards (LF/RF). Current width isolates players. 4-2-3-1 and 4-2-2-2 play like a 4-2-4. CAMs push too high, everything collapses. 4-4-2 (standard): CMs move higher than LM/RM, even with balanced instructions. Wide players ignore all "Defend" options, even when selected. Inside forwards, wingers, and wide midfielders do not respond to any defensive role (including Defend or Come Back on Defence). The result: CMs who should link play end up behind the ball, while wide players stand still instead of tracking back or supporting transitions. 4-4-2 (CDM): Far too wide wingers, wide CDMs, wide strikers and disconnected. Huge gaps between lines, no compactness. Gameplay and Rewards Finishing is inconsistent. Power shots, driven shots, finesse - all unreliable unless tied to a PlayStyle+, which still is barely good enough. Competitive balance is gone; Division 1 players can lose to Division 10 opponents in chaotic, random matches. Red Picks were never the issue - the content inside them was. Bring them back with better rewards and Evo integration. Skill Expression and Reward Players who have mastered advanced mechanics - cancels, directional exits, ball rolls, McGeady cancels - arent rewarded anymore. The game rewards straight-line running and low-effort play over creativity or precision. Draft and Motivation Draft is the same as FIFA 19 - outdated interface, broken chem, repetitive teams. Theres no excitement left. Nobody pays 80 dollars to scroll menus and look at 45 different store packs. Bring back tactical freedom, skill reward, and formation balance - let us enjoy football again. What EA Needs to Do - Clear Action Points Players arent asking for miracles - just for basic football logic to work again. Here is what needs to change: 1. Add new and updated formations, including modern systems used by top managers. 2. Rework and update all other formations including 4-3-2-1 and similar narrow shapes to include a deeper CM/CDM and realistic inside forwards. 3. Manually fix formation width, attacking and defensive AI, and player positioning across all setups. 4. Reduce the distance between the striker and the rest of the team - attacks constantly break apart. 5. Fix 4-4-1-1, where CAM and ST push too far forward with no support. CMs should act as playmakers, not static runners, and wingers must actively attack and defend. 6. Fix 4-2-3-1 so half wingers actually track back, and Playmaker + Build Up creates a CAM that defends realistically. 7. In 4-4-2 and 4-4-1-1, CMs should behave closer to CDMs - balanced, not overly attacking. 8. Wingers in 4-4-2, 4-4-1-1 etc. must be able to both track back and run in behind when instructed - not stand still regardless of roles. 9. Buff finishing outside the box. 10. Give all wingers the opportunity to play on both flanks. 11. Bring back Red Picks. 12. Fix Moments. 13. Fix transfer market filters. 14. Fix 4-2-3-1 (CAMs) and 4-2-2-2 half winger roles so they defend and stay compact. 15. Fix the CM in 4-4-2 and 4-4-1-1 to defend better and not stand like a tree waiting to crash the box. 16. Allow actual wide midfielders and wingers to defend. 17. Provide more Role+ and Role++ options for wide midfielders. These are supposed to be the easiest roles in real football, yet modern wingers apparently cant play them since almost every card only gets Inside Forward++. 18. Add a Defend and Support instruction for LM, RM, RW, LW, inside forwards, and even wide CAM roles. 19. Add a Stay Central option for CAMs with Playstyles such as Shadow Striker, Classic 10, and Playmaker - they are too wide and disconnected. Final Message The community expects EA to manually rebalance formations, fix spacing and AI behavior, and reintroduce tactical freedom that respects both realism and gameplay. Game hasnt been half decent since we went from FIFA to FC IQ. IQ is the biggest lie of them all. Time to show if you actually listen or if its all a marketing strategy.EA Can you please fix the goalkeeper system
It feels terrible compared to FC25 goalkeepers barely save anything.Sometimes people even mad when I move the stick because the keeper moves way too far to one side, leaving a huge open space.Also, when the ball comes near me, I don’t understand why the keeper doesn’t try to catch it automatically,which often leads to goals.Please fix the issue where when I move the joystick the goalkeeper doesn't move much, It should be like in FC 25 where I could move the joystick but the goalkeeper didn't lose position excessively. In FC25,if a teammate passed the ball slowly to your feet or if the opponent shot softly, the keeper would catch it automatically or when pressing triangle.Now,when I try to catch it, the keeper dives to the ground and lets the opponent score.I know some things have improved,but not completely and it’s still really frustrating for me.It even makes me play Pro Clubs and Ultimate Team less because defenders also had issues (though I think those might already be fixed).
Bring Back VOlTA!
Hey EA team, I really think you should bring VOLTA back. In FC 24, it was honestly perfect — complete, stylish, and full of fun. Then in FC 25, you changed it to “3v3” and removed goalkeepers. We accepted that and moved on, even though it was a big downgrade. But now, in FC 26, VOLTA is gone completely — and there’s really no logical reason for that. It doesn’t hurt anyone to keep it in the game. Those who enjoy it will play it, and those who don’t can simply ignore it. You wouldn’t lose anything by keeping it, but you’d make a lot of players very happy. Please reconsider bringing VOLTA back. It was pure football fun — colorful, creative, and one of the best ways to just enjoy the game with friends. ⚽💛
Playable 2003 Championship (Glory Days)
Hi everyone, I’d like to suggest something that I think could really resonate with both long-time Formula 1 fans and newer players curious about the sport’s past - a “Glory Days” mode featuring the full 2003 Championship as a playable season in F1 2026. The early 2000s were truly F1’s old-school era: raw, loud, and full of character. Many fans still see that period as the sport’s golden age, and bringing it back in an official, playable format would be an incredible way to celebrate that legacy. Why 2003 Specifically? 2003 was one of the most dramatic and unpredictable seasons of the early 2000s, a break in the Ferrari dominance and full of unique storylines. It featured legendary names like: Michael Schumacher Kimi Räikkönen Juan Pablo Montoya Jenson Button Rubens Barrichello Ralf Schumacher Fernando Alonso Giancarlo Fisichella …and even Jos Verstappen, the father of today’s world champion, which would add a really fun connection for modern fans. Imagine being able to relive the 2003 grid - the V10 engines, the old circuits, the iconic liveries, either through a full championship mode or free race mode. It's already a Proven Concept. MotoGP 22 introduced the Nine Season 2009 mode, which recreated real events from that year’s championship. Many fans consider it one of the best additions ever made to the MotoGP franchise. EA and Codemasters could take inspiration from that - not necessarily as part of Breaking Point, but as a standalone historical season mode or an unlockable feature for F1 2026. It would appeal both to: - Older fans, who’d love the nostalgia of reliving Schumacher vs. Räikkönen vs. Montoya, and - Newer players, who’d enjoy experiencing a time before DRS, hybrid power units, and modern aerodynamics. The F1 community has a huge appreciation for the sport’s heritage. Adding the 2003 Championship as a playable era would not only celebrate that history but also deepen the connection between generations of fans and drivers. Thank you for reading, I’d love to hear what others think! Looks good?SOME ULTIMATE PROBLEMS
Hello, first of all, thank you for FC26. I'd like to point out a few issues I've noticed. When playing Ultimate game mode, it's absolutely essential to add a male or female player selection option to the card reveal stage. (WOMEN'S FOOTBALL HAS ACTUALLY KILLED THE GAME.) When playing Ultimate game mode, the goal music I want to select for my team only requires a single click to play the sound. When I try to activate another sound, the sound doesn't play. The sound only allows me to play the sound once. While playing Ultimate game mode, I want to select the GALATASARAY team crest for my team, but it seems this search hasn't been added to the game. I can never find it when I search for it. (Many other additions, including GALATASARAY fan sounds, should definitely be made.)Please Update
Hello, please update me. The first one is about uniform contamination. It was applied to previous series, but from some point, the innerwear is clean and not contaminated with muddy water or grass. Please update this part for immersion. And I hope that the uniforms that were contaminated in the first half will be reset cleanly at the start of the second half. Please. Second, all players are the same height when they are all on the podium to win trophies after winning all kinds of competitions. This bug has been around for a long time. Third, it was found in this series, and I hope that the young children of the home team, who are joining hands with the players before the start of the game, will join hands with the away players to enter. I hope these three parts will be reviewed and updated to improve. Thank you
