EA Sports FC 25 has faced significant backlash, prompting a developer response. Criticisms extend beyond monetization practices to encompass technical issues and gameplay mechanics. The resulting "Gameplay Refresh Update" boasts over 50 changes addressing core gameplay elements.
Key improvements include adjustments to assists, shooting, goalkeeping, and defensive mechanics. The update aims to resolve frequent issues such as defenders easily catching up to ball carriers and to enhance offensive fluidity. AI behavior has also been refined, reducing the occurrence of overly aggressive tackles and interceptions, while the effectiveness of crossing passes has been toned down. Player support has been improved for players in familiar roles, and offside detection for AI-controlled players has been enhanced. Finally, the accuracy of long-range shots has received a minor boost.
Initial player reception was overwhelmingly negative. Only 36% of the 474 initial reviews were positive, highlighting widespread dissatisfaction. Common complaints included perceived corporate greed, numerous bugs and crashes, and compatibility problems with PlayStation controllers. Furthermore, the game's anti-cheat measures render it incompatible with the Steam Deck.
