We've seen a few posts of people who aren't able to finish the BIG point SBCs. I am not sure when EA released this but there is a list that shows you the reward you will receive for the points you did burn.

Good luck to us all when players cost more then 8 million gems.

... and single-handedly play the opponent's striker onside?

Yours frustratingly,

The entire EASports FC Community

I’ve been playing FIFA for decades. And I honestly can’t remember being this disappointed with the direction of the gameplay.
I’ve deliberately avoided Ultimate Team for years. Why? Because I never liked the obsession with overpowered individual players, exaggerated abilities and exploiting whatever mechanics happen to be the meta.
That’s why I played Online Seasons. I wanted to play actual football. Building attacks, anticipating movements, creating space, finding passing lanes and outthinking my opponent.
And I was pretty damn good at it.
In FC 26, I played Bayern Munich in Division 1 and lost fewer than 5% of my matches.
Now, in FC 27, I’m stuck in Division 3, losing roughly half my games.
At first, I thought maybe I just needed to adapt.
Then I switched to Real Madrid.
And suddenly, winning became ridiculously easy again.
The funny thing is, I’m not even particularly good at dribbling.
But with Mbappé, it barely matters. His movement is absurd. He changes direction almost instantly, glides through defenders and smashes shots into the top corner with a simple tap of the shoot button.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane, one of the best finishers and most intelligent strikers in world football, feels massively disadvantaged simply because he can’t move like an arcade character.
And that’s where I think EA has fundamentally lost the plot.
Football intelligence is being replaced by reaction speed and individual player mechanics.
Why bother reading the game three passes ahead? Why patiently move defenders out of position? Why create space through intelligent combinations when you can just give the ball to Mbappé and wiggle your way through the defence?
The game doesn’t sufficiently reward the things that make actual football such a fascinating sport.
And here’s what frustrates me most:
Everything I deliberately avoided in Ultimate Team has now infected the core gameplay of Online Seasons.
The exaggerated individual abilities. The obsession with pace and agility. The arcade-like movements. The increasing importance of mastering individual mechanics instead of understanding football.

Maybe EA is deliberately making the game more accessible to newcomers. If all you need to create chances is a fast, agile superstar and decent reactions, you don’t need years of football knowledge or tactical understanding to be competitive.
That might make commercial sense. It might appeal to a wider audience.
But at what cost?
And before anyone responds with “skill issue”:
I’m winning again with Real Madrid. That’s exactly why I’m complaining.
I don’t enjoy winning this way.
I want to beat opponents because I anticipate their movements, understand space better, make smarter decisions and build better attacks.
Not because my player can change direction five times in two seconds and fire an unstoppable shot from an absurd position.
Of course, football requires individual brilliance. Mbappé SHOULD be exceptional. But even Mbappé is subject to momentum, body positioning, defensive organization and the laws of physics.
A great football game should reflect that.
I’m not asking for an easier game. I’m asking for a game in which being good at football matters more than being good at exploiting the controller.
After decades with this franchise, I’m genuinely wondering whether EA still wants to make a football simulation at all.
Or whether the goal is simply to create the most accessible, fast-paced, mechanically rewarding arcade game possible.
Does anyone else feel that tactical football has become significantly less rewarding in FC 27, especially compared to FC 26?
And if you disagree, I’d genuinely like to hear why.

Slightly better than previous evos we had but still nothing usefull imo, especially for a 85 overall.

I'm so at a loss for this, but every single game I'm playing is the exact same. I've lost 6 in a row in D5 after being close to promoting to Div 4. Every single game goes the same way.

• I take ages to fashion a chance whether I actually build up with the ball or play on the counter. My opponent parts my defense like the red sea and is in on goal with one through ball
• My opponents average center backs like Militao catch up to any ball through or over the top that I can play. My Ibanez and Lacroix can't catch Vicky Lopez to save their life, no matter how early I switch covering the obvious triggered run
• My opponents can wiggle back and forth on the edge of the box for an eternity until I either switch to the wrong player or they eventually slam a low driven past me at the near post. My players run away from the ball even if I'm second man pressing. The amount of tacklebacks I seem to concede is insane relative to how many I'm getting
• When I'm in possession, I get tackled through the back, muscled off by Stanway, or my player eventually passes to the wrong player and I lose the ball. I skill move around a player but the opponent gets a clean tackle animation anyway and I lose the ball. I can't left stick around anyone despite having players with great dribbling and my opponent can sprint jockey as fast as I can run with the ball

Sure, INB4 skill issue / Thursday Rivals whatever, but I got 9-11 wins fairly consistently the last few years. Genuinely what the hell am I supposed to do? I see other people succeeding without 95 depth/narrow so it has to be possible

The fix appears to be now that the ball floats not as far into the goal and right into Keepers possession instead of laser to your selected player in the net.

You need to close and restart your game for the new patch to apply.

Just in time for the Weekend League and new Rivals week.

Seriously, FC27 is getting on my nerves. I don't think i've experienced such cracked ai in squad battles, it's impossible to defend them on corners. Also the whole 95 depth meta gimmick is insane, why does it decide if you win or lose matches now? I find it impossible to enjoy playing the game without it. I don't know, it's probably always been like this on ultimate team but this year is just something else man. Whole point of this game is to make you play UT, then make the playing experience so awful that you 'have' to buy packs to enjoy yourself. Also this pack weight? I haven't fucking got a single promo in a whole week of playing and ive opened a shitload of packs. it hasn't been this bad in yearssssss

Is there a way to know what players you've recently gotten that you can add to any team in the gallery? Seems to be that having to go though team by team if there are new players is inefficient

Has it always been like this? I didn't play FC26 at all, and I have a faint recollection of FC25 rewards.

Please add something where when a number of goals go in, the game ends.

How many times I see as soon as we are 3-0/4-0 down. Everyone gives up.

Bristol City Home - Championship

Mexico - International

Kalmar FF Home - Swedish League

Västerås SK Away - Swedish League

Wigan Home - League One

Wasn't sure whether to add Wigan as the cut is low but I added them anyway. Very niche topic but these are the best I could find

This looking how generated video by Ai

Got bored of playing with small fast players, bought a mandzukic and crouch, tried to play 532 with fullbacks with whipped plus and those two upfront but the players animations when crosses come in seem to suck. The crosses also seemed to be a bit too flat.

Changed to a 433 and put mandzukic coming in from lw with me trying to cross from the right. Got a fair bit of success with getting headers off, but keeper saved everything which was annoying.

Any specific roles on forwards or formations that may help me play this style? I had the forwards on target forward attack.
Plus is there a way to cross that is better for this sort of play rather than the standard

Pack weight is abysmal, I didn’t even get a shitty discard 87… I got two 85’s and a whole lot of nothing. Save your coins and buy players.

Last year we got quite a few good EVOs that help increase attributes with no overall increase. Has EA said anything about this or acknowledged if it was an issue?

We haven't had a single one of these types of EVOs this year. With how GARBAGE the EVOs have been this year these types of EVOs would help fix the balance of EVO complaints this year I think?

I'm wondering if EA thinks this is the reason people complained about OP EVOs last year?

Anyone has been experiencing HUGE micro stuttering on pc? It was great since launch, and since the last weekend it's been utterly unplayable.

(and before anyone says anything yes i think near post shots are insanely broken rn, please dont argue with me)

Feel like so much BS happens in this game than previous years, like players deciding not to run when your sprinting, or really bad touches, defenders running away from players, not stretching for the ball, I trigger runs and my player just randomly stops for no reason, you go to barge or tackle and the attacker shrugs it off. Passes going to random players. I played since FC 17 and I don't recall so many passes going to players they wasnt meant to be.

Id get it if I had a crap team but the players I have are some of the best. I'm ready to call it quits and off load my coins

This just made me laugh 😂

I packed Kvaratskhelia and really want to use him the most effective way. Does it have to be a 4-2-1-3 or have you all had any success with other winger formations? My best ST is Sophia Wilson and she won’t leave my starting lineup lol

95% of games I play is players with the special Adeyemi card, Pajor or Vicky Lopez spamming chip through ball as their 95+ pace players run onto it as defenders are still in the turning animation. Even if I see it coming and switch to the defender by the time I turn the chip through ball is already over my player with them running onto it. This game is the cheesiest version of EAFC ever. Players who try to play a certain way are punished cause this game is so one dimensional with what actually works.

I’ve been receiving this pop up for the past 2 days, it happens both in matches and in the menu, I’ve tried resetting my internet even though I know that’s not the problem as it doesn’t happen on any other game.

Has anyone else experienced this and if so how did you fix it?
