EA Sports FC 24 Closes Major Exploit, Prompting Mixed Reactions from Players

Gamers seeking a quick way to complete objectives and farm XP in EA Sports FC 24 have just seen a major loophole closed. Title Update #18.2 addresses a popular exploit that allowed players to complete objectives by scoring three own goals.

Reaction to the fix has been mixed, with some players stating that the bug was relatively harmless compared to other unresolved issues. Fans particularly noted the rapid response to this exploit while other complaints remain unaddressed.

EA Sports' announcement did not mention any specific punishments for exploiting this bug. However, some users have reported bans as a result of using it, although the criteria for such bans have not been clearly defined.

EA FC marked a significant moment for EA Sports, being the first title in the popular soccer simulation series to forgo the FIFA name. Despite some player frustrations voiced online, the game was an overwhelming success for EA, generating more profit than FIFA 23 due to Ultimate Team live service transactions. However, it sold fewer copies than its licensed counterpart, raising questions about the long-term profitability of the franchise as the release of EA FC 25 approaches.
