👍Gameplay Balance Will Not Change For Now
EA says it is taking a cautious approach to Gameplay following the launch of FC 27. The development team wants to give the experience time to settle and is not currently considering changes to core gameplay balance. Bug fixes and unintended behaviours will continue to be addressed, however. EA highlighted the Custom Controls issue that could cause incorrect inputs as an example of a problem already resolved in Title Update 1.0.1.
🎮Ultimate Team: Squad Battles and Quality-of-Life Improvements
EA says the early response to Gallery and this year's tuning changes has been encouraging, including increased use of the Transfer Market when building squads. The team continues to monitor how these changes affect Ultimate Team as players spend more time in the mode, and it is also closely tracking Squad Battles difficulty. EA is also identifying quality-of-life improvements for the mode. One feature already on the roadmap is Streamlined SBCs on Companion.
💼Career Mode Feedback Is Being Monitored
Career Mode is another area receiving close attention, with EA specifically monitoring community feedback surrounding Dynamic OVR and Stamina. The developers want to see how these new systems affect players throughout a full season as more users progress further into their Careers. Work is also underway on areas including player demands and Transfer Market behaviour.
🛡️The Grounds & Clubs
EA says it has also been monitoring feedback around The Grounds & Clubs, with Kickabouts queue times, Winner Stays and Win Streaks among the topics being discussed by the community. Additional bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements for these areas are also being worked on.
🛠️Title Update 1.0.2 Is Coming
Following Title Update 1.0.1, which included fixes such as the infinite Stamina issue in Clubs, EA confirmed that Title Update 1.0.2 is already around the corner and will address additional bugs.
More Detailed Updates Are Coming Next Week
The first Developer Notes are only the beginning. Starting next week, EA plans to provide more detailed updates covering each major area of FC 27, including the feedback being received, what the development teams are seeing and the issues they are continuing to investigate.
