The currently known issues that are affecting and, at times, disrupting the overall gameplay experience in these modes remain unresolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to accessing the <strong>transfer market<\/strong> via the Web App and Companion App, things get a bit more complicated. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/ea-fc-26-how-to-unlock-the-transfer-market-in-web-app-companion-app\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"79756\">We\u2019ve covered all the details in the official guide published on our pages.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also suggest taking a look at the prediction for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/ea-fc-26-prediction-sbc-marquee-matchups-5-march-week-25\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"82675\">the Marquee Matchups, so you can buy in advance the cards you\u2019ll need to complete the SBCs that Electronic Arts will release on Thursday, 5 March.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, <strong>the FUT Birthday Team 1 <\/strong>has already been leaked, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifaultimateteam.it\/en\/ea-fc-26-fut-birthday-team-1-release-on-6-march-icons-and-heroes-leaked\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"82708\"><strong>full list of players available at the following link<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gameplay\">Gameplay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past few weeks, we\u2019ve been closely following conversations across Discord polls, feedback posts, and social channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We appreciate the time and detail the community has shared around Passing and Shooting PlayStyles. As a result, this update focuses on reducing the overall impact of certain PlayStyles and shifting more influence towards players\u2019 core attributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following changes have been made that affect PlayStyles, Passing, And Shooting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"passing\">Passing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Improved accuracy and speed of ground passing, with impact being most noticeable on players with higher passing attributes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added the ability for players without the Incisive Pass PlayStyle but with high attributes in Short Pass, Long Pass, and Curve to contextually curve through balls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduced the accuracy of lofted passes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By lofted passes, we are referring to double tapping the ground pass or through pass button<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"power-shot\">Power Shot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Improved the trajectory of Power Shots to increase the potential of scoring from longer ranges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased Power Shot accuracy when taken with the Power Shot PlayStyle and PlayStyle+<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"chip-shot\">Chip Shot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tuned Chip Shots to be less likely to go wide.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased accuracy of Chip Shots.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Players with the Chip Shot PlayStyle perform Chip Shots with additional accuracy.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tiki-taka-playstyle\">Tiki Taka PlayStyle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>To avoid overly accurate passing and decrease some of the gap between passing with and without PlayStyles, the accuracy of ground and first-time passes with the Tiki Taka PlayStyle has been reduced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ground passes performed with Tiki Taka PlayStyle still benefit from the overall improvements in accuracy and speed listed above, ensuring the PlayStyle remains a useful attacking option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"inventive-playstyle\">Inventive PlayStyle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The accuracy of lofted ground and through passes using the Inventive PlayStyle and Inventive PlayStyle+ has been slightly increased.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This is to slightly compensate for the accuracy reduction to lofted passes mentioned in the passing section.
