While FC 25 has introduced some new features and content updates, it has also faced criticism from players for a number of issues. These problems often center around the game's core gameplay mechanics and online functionality, which can directly affect the player experience.


Gameplay and Technical Issues
Players have reported a variety of bugs and glitches that impact gameplay. These include issues with:

Passing and Shooting: Passes not going where intended and shots failing to register properly have been noted as common occurrences.

Player AI: There are complaints about player-controlled and AI-controlled characters. This includes goalkeepers making illogical decisions, defenders not tracking runs, and inconsistent player switching, which can be frustrating during fast-paced matches.

Input Lag: Many players have experienced significant input lag in online matches, even with a strong internet connection. This delay can make the game feel sluggish and unresponsive.

Menu and Connection Problems: There are also reports of freezing in menus, crashing, and difficulty connecting to online servers, particularly for the Ultimate Team mode.

Ultimate Team Content
The Ultimate Team mode, a cornerstone of the game, has its own set of problems, including:

Content and Reward Issues: Players have reported missing content, like items and packs, and issues with Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) and their associated rewards.

Monetization: As with previous iterations of the game, the in-game economy and heavy reliance on microtransactions for building a competitive team remain a significant point of contention for many players.

In an effort to address these issues, EA has released several title updates to fix bugs and improve game stability.
