Mass False Bans for “Balance Transfer” on PC
Throwback to 24.12.25, when EA’s automated detection system flagged thousands of PlayStation accounts for “balance transfer.” After 8–10 hours, they fixed the issue and unbanned everyone with a single click. Everyone thought the problem was resolved, the Wildcards promo continued, and the money kept flowing. Now, three weeks later, guess what’s happening on PC? Exactly the same thing that happened on Christmas Eve. Multiple accounts in my community have been banned over the span of just two days. Casual players, traders — you name it. I even tested the issue myself by hopping onto unused accounts, trading a few cards, and playing a couple of Rivals games. And guess what? After about 10 hours of normal gameplay, I got banned for literally no reason. We didn’t sell coins. Most of us didn’t use any external web app add-ons or bots. Just regular Weekend League gameplay with some trading on the side to improve our teams — literally using the in-game market as intended. My friends and I did some research to figure out what might have caused this. We reviewed the cards we bought and sold, as well as our profits and losses. Across all 14 accounts, there was exactly one common card purchased on every single account: Ibanez Winter Wildcard. The point of this post is to make this issue public and hopefully get it noticed by someone at EA. Many people have lost their time, money, and nerves. EA Help’s policy is based almost entirely on automated responses, so when you try to appeal a ban, you’re stuck resending the same message only to get rejected by a bot 24 hours later. It’s incredibly frustrating. I've already made a post on Reddit and X both got quite a big attention, but still no action by EA. So please, if you’re in the same situation, upvote this post. Feel free to comment about your experience with EA Help, and if you managed to get unbanned, let us know how you did it. Fellow EA FC 26 players — cheers.
FC 26 – Core Gameplay Broken by Camera Sync Issues
THIS ISSUE IS NOT ONLY IN RUSH!!!! Hello EA team, This issue has been ongoing for a long time, especially since you introduced RUSH mode into the game. It may sound complicated, but this is the reality: The problem has gotten much worse since last year, due to the major changes to the pitch size, angles, zoom height (now much higher), and the dynamic camera switching in RUSH. The issue is not only inside RUSH itself, but how the camera settings now affect the general gameplay experience in all other modes like Rivals or Squad Battles. In other words, the pitch changes, dimensions, and camera focus from RUSH also influence other Ultimate Team matches. The biggest factor: the camera. This is visible in player handling, first touch, passing, turning, and body orientation – which suddenly glitch when attacking near the goal. On top of that, gameplay is clearly different when pressing the camera focus button (PS5: touchpad, Xbox: “view/screen” button). Just like in RUSH, it switches focus from player to full pitch. The problem is that this function collides with and damages gameplay in other FUT modes, even when it’s not visually obvious – inputs and outputs change in a very noticeable way. Key observations: Passing and shooting reach: pressing the button alters reach drastically. Long passes: sometimes too short even with high power, or too long after switching focus. Short passes: can either hit a nearby opponent or suddenly fly 20 meters down the pitch. Shooting: Looks like long-distance shots (30–40m) even when standing just 15m from goal. Dribbling: The ball stays further from the foot, easier to lose. Defending: Tackling timing breaks due to “long focus” stretching the pitch. Narrow vs. Long focus: Narrow focus: more responsive short passes, tighter dribbling, tackles feel magnetic. Long focus: smoother look, faster flow, but unresponsive, with exaggerated animations. This creates imbalance: players who use the long focus gain unfair advantages (gliding movement, stronger long shots, faster pass execution). Camera setting collision (important): The collision is not only between RUSH and FUT modes – it also occurs between different in-game camera settings themselves. Switching between “Tele,” “Rush broadcast,” and others causes zoom/focus conflicts. These trigger the same gameplay inconsistencies (passing range, shooting, dribbling, tackling). Players can even meet in matches with different active camera focuses, which makes gameplay unequal. How to reproduce: Play one RUSH match on Rush Broadcast camera. Enter any FUT match (Rivals, Squad Battles, etc.). Use the camera focus button (PS5: touchpad, Xbox: “view/screen”). From here, the glitch activates permanently. Conclusion: The integration of RUSH camera logic into other modes has broken gameplay. It affects balance (passes, shots, dribbling, defending), input/output consistency, and the entire FUT experience. This issue used to be limited to RUSH/Rush Broadcast(and other rush cam's) , but now it extends further due to zoom changes, pitch dynamics, and coding mismatches (e.g., player distance vs. keeper is registered incorrectly). It’s disappointing to see such a core feature left unresolved, and I believe this has already cost EA many players who cannot accept a game that feels this inconsistent. I sincerely hope the development team investigates this as a priority. regards, a gamer with an IT degreefc 26 is the worst football/soccer game created ever
this is the worst year i have ever played an EA game ive never complained about the game being pay to win because it was fun but the last time ive enjoyed playin this game was 3 years ago in fifa 23 and you can see this since i didnt buy last 2 parts 24 and 25 this game needs fixing passes are broken defense is disgusting long shots arent nerfed but removed from the game and packs are so bad i pre ordered the game and played it every day since my team is still so bad and i have only 7k coins also i cant **bleep** win a game because of how the mechanics are this year its impossible to get a good pack and impossible to defend an attack but some how also impossible to execute an attack fix the game and fix the packsЛагает в EA FC 26
Здравствуйте, где то с позавчера (21.09.2025) начались лаги в режимах. Причем фпс показывает везде не меньше 60 (стоит 60 макс) Пинг максимум 20-25 мс. Лагает во всех режимах, кроме Rush, там все плавно. При подключении к Rivals по мимо лагов еще и геймпад не реагирует на отклик (показывает, что подключен, но кромы выхода в меню, и то, с задержкой, ничего больше не работает). К тому же, я смотрю всем выдается Кумир дебюта за предзаказ, но мне так ничего и не пришло. Просьба разобраться со всем этим, играть невозможно. PC

I’m on Switch 2 and for a week now have not been able to find 1 opponent on rush or rivals “no team mate found” and “no opponent found” I need to complete 3 rush matches to unlock the market, bit hard when there are no opponents to be found. no response from EA - really should be refunded for online passRequest for macOS / Apple Silicon Support for EA Sports FC
Hello EA team, As a long-time EA Sports fan, I would like to request official support for EA Sports FC on macOS, especially for Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) devices. Today, millions of gamers use modern Mac computers with powerful ARM processors that are fully capable of running FC. Many of us are ready to purchase the game, but there is currently no official macOS version, which is disappointing for a large and growing community. Apple Silicon Macs have strong GPU performance, excellent optimization, and huge market share. Supporting macOS would open FC to a large audience and significantly increase the player base. Please consider adding official macOS support in future releases. We truly love the EA FC series and would be excited to purchase and play it on our Macs. Thank you for listening to the community.Defending in EAFC26
Does anybody have any advice for optimal defending? Everygame opponents seem to play in an identical manner, exploiting cut backs and Jockeying/Contain are simply too slow to deal with it. I feel like I might be missing some simple mechanic to deal with it, but if I even attempt to try and press with a full back it's a guaranteed goal for the opponent. Scoring goals is not such a big issue, but I feel it's almost impossible to defend on this game, while opponents unrealistically turn in circles and I can't get close. I've had a few games where my opponents seem to compress the pitch similarly to older titles (I stopped in 21, cos of the disconnect hacks people were doing)
