EA FC Title Update 7 Patch Notes: Objective Glitch Fixed Along With Passing Changes

The EA Sport FC Title Update 7 Patch notes deploy fixes for several bugs and glitches, while incorporating several passing changes, and more.

Right after deploying a massive Holiday Update in early December, this is EA FC’s most comprehensive update yet ahead of TOTY, fixing the massive Objective notification gitch since the launch of the game. Several other changes to passing and more gameplay updates have been made. The update also ships a plethora of fixes for some audio and visual bugs to ensure players have a smooth experience.

Objective notification icon will no longer be ‘glitchy', and will disappear once you claim the rewards. The update issues a fix that caused the icon to stay even after claiming the reward. This issue bugged many players across all platforms, and the update looks to fix the same. The gameplay changes detailed in this update aren't very extensive like the rest of the bug and glitch fixes, but intend to make changes to Lobbed and Precision Lobbed passes.
