EA SPORTS FC 26

The problem is that in recent years FIFA has turned into a bit of a Frankenstein, with patch after patch making everything harder to roll back. The good sign is that they’re trying with this gameplay split. But I believe that if they keep at it, we might finally have a decent game in 2 or 3 years.

FIFA can only return to its glory days if Sam Rivera NO LONGER SERVES AS THE PRODUCER.

This is by far the fastest FIFA in recent years, faster than 99 overall players from last year... holy cr*p!
Players pass the ball without any issues regarding ball control and balls position, runs are insane, 1-2s are op... and streamers call it "responsive".
 
Yes looks really bad from the vids, i think finally passing can feel good after modding, it is fast but kinda natural compared to 25

Fast and furious

For me, the biggest issue right now is the forward body lean in the men. They run without the ball, hunched forward and looking down at the ground, like when a player has the ball and needs to dribble. That running posture (that some real players have under very specific circumstances) all the time looks very unrealistic. I just can’t unsee it.

In fact, the way women run looks much more natural compared to the men.

I could never put a finger to it but I think this choice is exactly what has made the next-gen FIFAs look so uncanny.

He said(0:20) that it is competetive gameplay but AI build up looks decent

@decoruiz Modding: FC 26 players table in the database feature a new column for sock style that ranges from 0 to 8 (there is no "4") as you can see below. The "holes" style seem to exist only for regular sock length.

Welcome technical improvements to the PC version!!

I personally use the DualSense on PC and they've put in all the haptic features! :APPLAUD:

No full support via BT?!
What could be the technical challenge behind that?!
I’m using a dualsense via BT since I’ve been playing on PC (4-5 years). I’m not gonna lay a usb cable from my play room to my living room tv-couch combi, where I enjoy my matches on a big screen.
 
The game is quite playable only when you use 4-star teams. It's slower, more balance - still an ice hockey but no that much. Unless it's a Premier League team. Playing with any Premier League team speeds the game up.


It was the same thing in 25/24/23, etc.


So, the only way to play and actually have fun for at least 20 minutes in the entire year is by playing this shit before any updates or major patches are released, because once the game is sped up (same scenario since 201, every single year), it’s ruined.
The best option is to stick with lower-rated teams. I had a few good games last year, but that was drastically taken away after about 83,923 updates. Every single one ruined the game even more.

In general - yet again -> it’s a huge disappointment.
 
I’m a bit concerned that the core gameplay is so sped up and dumbed down for the online crowd that ‘authentic’ basically takes it back to base FC25 lol.
 
Some carrer and authentic gameplay:


I'm confused.
I've now bought the Ultimate Edition and EA Play.

When can I start playing?
Because the Steam shop says 19 September 2025 at 1 a.m.

But someone posted a screenshot here that says EA Play starts on 18 September 2025 at 1 a.m.

Then I read the following German article, which says EA Play from 18 September 2025 at 2 p.m. (German time). And Ultimate Edition from 19 September 2025 at 1 a.m.
https://www.gamestar.de/artikel/ea-fc-26-ea-play-frueher-spielen,3439662.html

The two global launch times for FC 26

The confusion surrounding the exact release time stems from two completely separate time slots: The activation for EA Play (both the 10-hour trial for approximately €6 and the full version via EA Play Pro for €16 per month) is based on the global launch in the earliest time zone. As soon as it is midnight in New Zealand, the game will be released globally there.

→ For players in the Germany, the starting signal will therefore already be given on 18 September at 2 p.m.

In contrast, the €100 Ultimate Edition has its own separate and later global launch date. Regardless of the time zone, this version will be released simultaneously for all PC players worldwide, which in this country will be at 1 a.m. on 19 September. Buyers of the most expensive edition will therefore have to wait a full 11 hours longer than subscribers.

Double purchase becomes a trap

The situation is particularly annoying for the most loyal customers who may own both products: as numerous players report on the EA forum, owning the Ultimate Edition seems to overwrite the earlier access via EA Play.

So anyone who thought they could cleverly take advantage of the 10-hour trial and then seamlessly continue playing with their Ultimate Edition is in for a nasty surprise. According to user reports, after activating the Ultimate Edition, the start time in the client is inevitably set to 1:00 a.m.

Is it worth changing to a New Zealand IP and somehow adopting the New Zealand time zone?

If so, how do I go about it? I've bought a few games, but I've never done anything like this before.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Normally you can start in a few minutes. Click on your preloaded Ultimate Edition and then there should appear an EA Play Button. Let's see.
