Squad battles gameplay is terrible
I completed all of my Squad Battles matches, winning every game—most on Professional difficulty and several on World Class. Despite the results, I genuinely hated every minute of playing. The gameplay feels extremely poor, frustrating, and unfair rather than challenging or enjoyable. The biggest issues are with CPU behavior and balance: The CPU passes excessively and unrealistically, often with perfect speed, accuracy, and decision-making regardless of difficulty. Tackling feels severely underpowered for the user. Clean tackles frequently result in the CPU retaining possession, while the CPU wins the ball far too easily through physical contact. CPU physicality is overly aggressive and unrealistic, making user players feel weak and unresponsive. As the difficulty increases, the game feels less skill-based and more like the CPU is outright cheating rather than playing smarter football. One example that highlights this issue clearly: CPU defenders are able to catch up effortlessly from behind to players like Adeyemi, as if they are the fastest players in the game. This completely breaks immersion and removes any sense of realism or fairness. Difficulty should increase through better positioning, smarter tactics, and improved AI decision-making—not by ignoring player attributes, boosting CPU stats, or limiting user responsiveness. Right now, Squad Battles feels scripted and artificial instead of rewarding. I hope these concerns are taken seriously, as this type of gameplay makes the mode more frustrating than fun and discourages continued play.ea false hope
did anyone notice anything with this patch other than removing of the shooting glitch ? cause as far as i remeber the patch should also include decrease in defense ai, well to the developers of fc do you even test the game before launching the update ? just try one game and dont play let your opponent try to score well he cant cause of the defensive ai . no one asked for it why adding it in first place ? why does the ai decided when to tackle and how to cover the ball it should be part of the gameplay not part of ai plus everyone dislike your engine since fc24 why would you still use it no one cares about . new patch same old crap useless update with again false hope , well i hope no one buys your next game [CM edit - cursing]Internationale teams missen, kunnen deze worden toegevoegd?
Hallo EA, Heel veel internationale teams missen in FC 26, waaronder Brazilië en België. Maar ook leuke teams zoals Curaçao en Suriname. Is er geen mogelijkheid om deze teams als nog toe te voegen dit zal zeker het spel veel leuker maken? Graag een terugkoppeling van EA.CO-OP Seasons is the BEST MODE to play right now
CO-OP seasons is the BEST MODE to play right now. The Gameplay is slower and set to AUTHENTIC (or a version of it). Both players have to defend and CANNOT use TEAMMATE CONTAIN at all. This is CRUCIAL to well-balanced Gameplay. The same needs to be done to other Game Modes. Seasons Online Single player should be set to AUTHENTIC as well. the FUT guys can keep the Arcade style game. LOL. Clubs might benefit from Authentic too.🫶🏼 An open letter to everyone who truly loves football games.
FC26 definitively marks the end of trust in EA. Why release patches every month if it’s not to fix the REAL problems? A game can have imbalances in attack or defense, of course. But those imbalances are also part of a game’s identity. So why tease nothing but hot air every year, only to then apply 10,000 monthly changes with no clear vision? Focus developers solely on REAL BUGS that actually block the game. Absolute priority to real bugs, and to balance adjustments before release and then at mid-season. And please, separate FUT from “SIMULATION”. ULTIMATE TEAM as free-to-play, with 10,000 balance updates, continuous content, events, cards, endless live-ops: no problem. That’s the pleasure fans of this type of experience are looking for. Fine. FOOTBALL CLUB, on the other hand, must be paid and above all designed as a true football game. A stable, balanced foundation, not dependent on constant patching. A massive historical content offering for legendary clubs: iconic kits, legendary players, mythical stadiums, unapologetic fan service, total immersion specific to each club. Why not even packs at €5–10, like Forza and its car packs—no one would complain if the core of the game is solid; fan service can go far. But above all, a true football simulation: An ambitious Career mode, inspired by Football Manager, with a demanding difficulty that forces training, reading the game, and understanding real football. Not assisted gameplay disguised as a simulation. And finally: let players CREATE their experience. Their leagues, their teams, their stadiums, their squads. Easily editable transfers. Custom players, fully customizable. How can you not also integrate the mythical legacy of old FIFAs, with Alex Hunter for example, and/or the spirit of PES and its Master League? Even without licenses, with generic players like Castolo, the fun was real. All it required was an intelligent game structure and deep respect for players. EA would easily make its money. And above all, would do a better job promoting football, clubs, and players. Instead of burning millions on bulls*** marketing campaigns: “We’re listening… look.” Just do things right. JUST DOOOOO IT. Even the menu presentation—you’ve abandoned it… There was a time when discovering the identity of the new game was part of the pleasure, the anticipation, the immersion. That time feels far away now.this is for the owner EA SPORT TEAM

Guten Tag zusammen, Mir ist aufgefallen das Jeremy Arévalo der vor kurzem zum VfB gewechselt ist Ingame Jeremy Areválo Mera genannt wird aber immer unter abgekürzt Namen "Jeremy" spielt. Bei Stuttgart spielt er als Jeremy Arévalo und sollte daher auch im Game von "Jeremy" in Jeremy Areválo geändert werden. Ebenfalls heißt Chabot Julian wird aber in der Mannschaft nur unter Jeff gelistet.ea need to explain this
its january now that means half way through the game life cycle , and until this time this game is unplayable so ea wasted the first half of the game by making us beta testers (but we who paid to test not the opposite ), as fifa/fc community we want a compensation for this bad experience, someone needs to file a lawsuit for fraud and false adPersona not switching on webapp - lost my progress/squad
Hi, So I relinked my PSN to the same EA account. Given the EA account retains the progress and squad it should have loaded up my squad (Valour) but it created a new one (Bari FC). And the main problem now is the webapp is not letting me switch back to my old persona squad. It is giving me the attached error. Have been trying since yesterday
