Africa Completionist Blocked – No South African LW 92 Pace Available After SBC
I’m currently unable to complete the Africa Completionist objective due to a design issue with the South Africa requirement. The challenge requires scoring a goal with any South African LW with at least 92 pace. However, the only player in the entire game who fits this requirement is: Oswin Appollis – FoF National Pride (LW, 92 Pace) I legitimately earned Appollis through the South Africa FoF objective, but later submitted him into an SBC. Normally, this would be my mistake — but in this case, it creates a hard progression block because: There is no other South African LW in the game There is no other South African player with 92+ pace There is no repeatable SBC to re-earn Appollis There is no alternative objective to regain him The requirement cannot be bypassed or substituted with position changes EA Help confirmed that they cannot restore SBC’d items, and also confirmed that this situation creates a hard block with no workaround. They advised me to report this here so the game team can review it.
It's so stupid that you're not allowed to do all the objectives
EA is so stupid, I swear... This is the only game in the world that doesn't allow you to do all the objectives if you have the time and ability. No, once you've reached for example 4 out of 6, you're locked out . That you don't have to do all of them, yeah of course. But that you're not allowed to makes NO SENSEWhen Rigid Support Policies Punish Loyal Players: a Single Misclick
Hi everyone, and hopefully, to the EA Community Managers reading this, I am writing this out of sheer frustration and heartbreak, hoping someone from the Studio or Community team can step in where standard EA Help failed. I have poured over 418 hours into EA SPORTS FC 26. I am a dedicated Ultimate Team player who grinds the menus, completes the objectives, and supports this franchise daily. Recently, I have been heavily grinding the "Journey of Nations Completionist" objective to unlock the 97-rated Maradona. I was on the absolute final stretch. Then, the unthinkable happened. During a routine menu grind, due to a simple lapse in concentration and the games unforgiving UI, I accidentally submitted the exclusive "Journey of Nations" Jay-Jay Okocha objective item into an SBC before I could play his 1 required match. In a fraction of a second, my entire progress for a 97-rated icon was permanently bricked. I immediately contacted EA Live Support. I knew that the Companion App Quick Sell Recovery tool does not work for SBC submissions, so I begged for a one-time goodwill manual exception. I was not asking for my SBC fodder back; I just needed a 1-match loan of that specific Okocha or for the objective to be manually ticked. The response I got was incredibly disheartening. The support agents were empathetic and explicitly admitted two things: First, they verified my playtime and my exact situation. Second, they admitted that while backend and Studio teams do have the tools to adjust accounts and fix broken objective chains, Live Support is strictly forbidden from escalating these cases to them. For reference, my official Case ID is: 249722744 How can a multi-billion dollar live-service game have a support policy that completely abandons its most dedicated players over a single UI misclick? Why is there zero safety net for untradeable, unrecoverable objective items that are tied to massive milestones like a 97 Maradona? I am posting this here because Live Support told me my only hope is that a Community Manager or someone from the Studio sees this and decides to intervene. I am pleading with the CMs: Please, look at Case 249722744. Look at my 418 hours of playtime. Please do not let weeks of grinding end in such a punishing, anti-consumer way just because a support protocol refuses to route edge cases to the backend team. Any help, upvotes, or visibility from the community would mean the world to me right now. Has anyone else had their progress completely soft-locked like this? Thank you for reading.
after update feedback - no tackling at all now!
This is genuinely very concerning! After the latest update, my players have completely lost the ability to tackle. They now feel permanently inactive defensively, almost as if tackling mechanics have been heavily delayed, disabled, or broken altogether. What exactly did you do, EA? The gameplay was already in a bad state before the update, but somehow you have managed to make it significantly worse. Players are no longer defending for me, all defending is gone! Pressing feels ineffective, tackles turn into jockey animations (as it was before but know 100% of the time), and basic defensive actions feel completely unreliable. It honestly feels like I am fighting against the game engine itself rather than playing football. My opponents however enjoy going through my attackers at any given moment from any angle! At this point, where is the bottom, EA? Somehow you always find a new low! What are you actually doing to the gameplay? Nothing from your pitch notes actually works!Seasonal games need to be more than 6….to toxic to play
Why is it, so many fc26 players are so toxic. And can’t see they are spoiling the game. Most stop people sending messages to even ask about I only need an assist and goal. Work together for the greater good, no, so many have to get the win. So many pause to want to make you quit etc. all this in a mode where you don’t need wins….all you need is assists with a CM and score with a striker and play games…. EA are awful, but the player base in general is way to toxic. But it’s the way EA have gone. They have forced players to be this way. With bad matchmaking, with bad mechanics like passing tackling etc. there is no chill mode to get challenges done that don’t matter. Shame on EA and some of the community
Time To Bike objective Bicycle Kick
I must have done a dozen bicycle kicks at this point, but nothing is registering. I am giving up. I refuse to engage with live events/rivals because the input delay on the server is just ridiculous. I have 5 players up front all with acrobatic+, but I can't force them to use the correct animation. They have their back to the goal, the animation looks fine, but the objective doesn't work. I give up! EA, yet again, release broken/unclear objectives and I am sick of it.Missing manager problem
Hey, can anybody help? I quick sold manager before completing tasks for MArket, and now i can't play almost any game in Ultimate Team mode. Is there any other way to get a manager? I tryed with deleting saved games, uninstaled game but it won't solve problem. I suppose i could make another profile and than somehow merge it with primary one...but i just want to ask does anybody has any other idea, what to do?
