The new EA Sports FC 24 Title arrived earlier this week, making improvements in several game modes while also nerfing a Playstyle. The Whipped Pass Playstyle, which increased the accuracy of crosses, received an accuracy reduction. Additionally, the update made several improvements across various modes like Ultimate Team, Career Mode, Clubs, and VOLTA Football. Overall, the newest update plans to improve the gameplay experience while fixing issues within the game itself.
