EA Sports has released a new set of EA FC 25 patch notes, with tackling being nerfed in EA FC 25 Title Update 17. At the beginning of June, EA Sports released EA FC 25 Title Update 15 , titled the ‘Season Finale Update’. The EA FC 25 update saw lots of gameplay changes made, including passing, heading and PlayStyles, but the title was slightly misleading, with this not being the ‘Finale’ update players expected. Since Title Update 15, EA has released two more Title Updates, with the latest set of EA FC 25 patch notes, Title Update 17, making a much-needed change to tackling, though with EA FC 26 set to be released in a few months time, it feels like this update is a few months overdue. Along with the gameplay changes, some updates have been made to Ultimate Team and Career Mode, while a couple of quick fixes have been made to general, audio, and visual. These are the EA FC 25 patch notes for EA FC 25 Title Update 17. EA announced EA FC 25 Title Update 17 in the latest set of patch notes , and the biggest change by far is to the gameplay, with EA nerfing tackling. Too often, players were able to spam tackles, both standing and sliding, an unrealistic amount. But now, EA has updated the game so players will take longer to recover from failed tackles, finally nerfing spam tackling. The list of available Icons that you can use in Player Career Mode has also been updated, but EA hasn’t mentioned the players being added or taken away, so we have to wait until the update is live to see what new players are in the game. EA FC 25 Title Update 17 will go live soon on Xbox , PlayStation , PC and Nintendo Switch . Here are the EA FC 25 patch notes for Title Update 17 in full: Made the following change: Addressed the following issue: Made the following change: Made the following changes: We’re rapidly approaching the time of the year where EA starts to shift its attention to the future, so unless there are any major bugs or issues with EA FC 25 gameplay in the next few weeks, this could be one of the last big gameplay changes made in EA FC 25.
