EA SPORTS has just released the latest FC 25 Title Update, introducing several important fixes and improvements, particularly for PC users. This update addresses key issues across multiple game modes, from button input problems in the menus to stability issues in Ultimate Team and Career Mode. As cross-play will temporarily be unavailable for PC players until the update reaches other platforms, this patch is vital in ensuring smoother gameplay for all users.
If you’re experiencing issues or are curious about the full list of changes in FC 25, here’s everything you need to know about the most recent title update.
FC 25: General, Audio, and Visual Fixes
The latest FC 25 update brings much-needed stability fixes that tackle some annoying bugs. Players have been reporting input issues and problems with controller compatibility, particularly when using Steam Input. EA SPORTS has addressed these concerns in this update, ensuring a better experience for PC gamers.
Key Fixes in This Section:
- Button Input Fix: A recurring issue where button inputs weren’t being registered when navigating menus has been resolved. This should now ensure that all actions in the menus, such as team selection and settings, register immediately when a button is pressed.
- Controller Compatibility: A critical compatibility issue with Steam Input was addressed. In the past, many users found that their controllers would stop working correctly unless Steam Input was configured perfectly. Now, Steam Input must be enabled before launching FC 25 to ensure it works as expected.
- Online Modes Stability: A general stability issue affecting all online modes has also been fixed, which should lead to a more seamless online experience. The patch notes mention that crashes or lagging were more common in certain instances, and this fix is aimed at making all online interactions much smoother.
These changes should significantly enhance the gaming experience, especially for players who rely on Steam and other PC-specific tools.
FC 25 Ultimate Team Updates: Fixing Crashes and UI Issues
Ultimate Team continues to be the most popular mode in FC 25, and with this comes an increased need for stability. Many players reported crashes and freezes when accessing certain parts of the game, particularly Squad Battles and the in-game Store. The latest title update brings fixes that should eliminate these frustrating occurrences.
Key Ultimate Team Fixes:
- Squad Battles Stability: One of the primary issues fixed in this update is the stability problem in Squad Battles. Players were experiencing crashes or freezes while trying to access this mode, making it difficult to progress through the game. This fix should make Squad Battles far more reliable for players.
- In-Store Crashes: Instances of crashes or unexpected freezes while navigating the Ultimate Team Store have been resolved. This is great news for players who often purchase packs or engage with content within the Store, as the experience should now be much smoother.
- UI Element Display Issues: Another bug that was addressed is the unintended display of user interface (UI) elements on the screen. In some cases, certain UI elements were sticking on the screen longer than intended, creating a cluttered interface and making it harder to navigate the game.
- Evolution Confirmation Message: The message that displays when confirming the start of an Evolution has been adjusted for better clarity. Now, when you start an Evolution in Ultimate Team, the message should be easier to understand, reducing the risk of confusion about what’s happening in the game.
These updates ensure that Ultimate Team—arguably the crown jewel of FC 25—runs more smoothly and reliably.
FC 25 Career Mode: Manager Stability Fix
Career Mode also saw a crucial fix aimed at Manager Career stability. Several players reported issues when navigating through Manager Career, particularly around stability when managing teams. The update includes a fix for these stability issues, which will help ensure that your career progresses without unexpected crashes or slowdowns.
Key Career Mode Fix:
- Manager Career Stability: The update has resolved stability issues within Manager Career mode, ensuring a smoother experience for those who focus on building and managing their teams. Whether you’re making transfers, setting up tactics, or managing day-to-day operations, the fix will keep things running more smoothly.
Cross-Play Temporarily Disabled for PC
As mentioned in the update, cross-play will be temporarily disabled for PC players until the patch becomes available on other platforms. This means that PC players won’t be able to engage in cross-play until the update has been rolled out to console users, which is expected in the near future.
