This latest EA Sports FC 25 update 1.007 introduces numerous adjustments aimed at enhancing both gameplay mechanics and overall player experience. Key gameplay updates include refining AI behavior in player positioning, notably by improving forward runs following passes, and refining defensive logic for midfielders in a holding role. Adjustments to referee foul logic have been introduced to improve match realism, particularly regarding goalkeepers and fouls near the penalty area. Additionally, the update resolves specific issues with the auto-switch feature, directed runs, and certain skill moves, which previously impacted player control and responsiveness. Several improvements to goalkeeper behavior, especially in deflection saves, help balance defensive actions across various scenarios, with added polish to animations for a smoother in-game experience.
The update also brings extensive fixes to other game modes like Ultimate Team, Clubs, and Career Mode. Ultimate Team improvements address UI inconsistencies, particularly in Evolutions and Player Items, and resolve stability concerns when navigating these menus. Clubs mode receives targeted fixes for Avatar customization and AI teammate logic, reducing occurrences of kit clashes and incorrect match results. Career Mode benefits from stability improvements, corrected youth player dynamics, and refined interview question logic to provide more relevant prompts. Finally, updates in general audio, visuals, and UI aim to enhance immersion, with updated kits, badges, audio elements, and commentary. PC-exclusive fixes ensure controller input consistency, while improvements to Skill Games and replay functionalities help solidify the game’s quality on all platforms.
