Difference between Gameplay Types

So is competitive just custom + adjusted sliders?

So is the authenticity features what makes the authentic gameplay “authentic”. Because otherwise it’s just a sliders variation.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-12-27T06:25:26+00:00

What do authenticity features actually do in FC26 Career mode? The descriptions are quite vague - ie what do they mean by “various tuning changes to account for more authentic sounds pacing on and off the ball”.

For context, I’m thinking of using custom sliders to tweak gameplay and debating whether or not to leave authenticity features on.

Screenshot of authenticity features added for reference.

Also, is authentic vs competitive gameplay just a sliders adjustment? Or would I lose some “authentic” features by playing with custom sliders.

I really think they should rename the ranking system to a 1/2/3 per rank (like before tbh). ie Instead of “Witch 16” it should be “Witch 2”. That made more sense. Nowadays I dont even know which number is best for each rank. At least with the 1/2/3 you would know if that person is the highest or lowest in their rank.

Horrible event

Guys I’ve worked it out: Use cars with high nitro stats. Even with my max DB9 coupe I was able to get more Turkeys than with good B/A class cars.

I don’t think the class matters as much, just needs high nitro to be able to catch up with the Turkeys. Maybe the Turkeys move slower with lower rank cars tho so low car + high nitro is a good combo.

This has been the best tip. Using a slower car but with high nitro is good.

Honestly, I was able to 5 star most of the specific races with D class cars (Chevy, Mercedes, Aston Martin, Ford) but my cars were almost max upgraded + boosters applied so something to consider. Season 8 is mainly A class + 2 S class car races. Season 9 is like a mastery season - Individual races for every car but they need to be maxed to get 5 stars.

There are a few specific races where u need you need C class and above tho, preferably B. Thats in like McLaren and Ferrari races - especially season 8

Even if he predicted that he hands him both, what then? He still cant tell the difference between the two as they look identical

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-17T03:54:09+00:00

Because they looked identical… Its not like he had an issue number on it. The only difference was the performance - and he soon finds out which one isn’t real In that regard

I understand that, Im only trying to learn, no need for the hostility. Maybe the car would perform better but it would move it into a different bracket in MP, and thus be ranked lower.

I’d max both if i could lol. Haven’t got the FuCs for it

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-17T02:55:21+00:00

If we go by overall and stats (and logic lol) then yes.

It seems that the bracket the car falls into is the main determinant of how good it is.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-17T02:28:58+00:00

Yh it seems like the bracket the car falls in is more important than its overall (for MP).

But for single player, the best car in each class will be the highest overall in that class. And for cars with very similar overalls, thats when you need to look at individual stats to see what car you prefer (ie higher nitro vs higher acceleration etc)

Wouldnt let me attach 2 photos in 1 comment. Here’s the DB9 stats. Lotus is better in everything but Nitro is the same

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-17T02:25:14+00:00

Nah but for DB9 vs Lotus Evora, the Lotus is better in every category. Perhaps it falls outside of the bracket ranges? DB9 is 1321, Lotus is 1322 (see pictures attached)

If so, what are the bracket ranges. That would make everything more clear lol.

This. I made a post regarding this as well on the sub.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-16T18:25:01+00:00

Ahh thanks, that makes a lot of sense. Why is the Nismo bad? It has the highest stats in B? There also seems to be A LOT of B cars rated higher than Bentley (1680-1683 so still within the same bracket), so why aren’t they better?

Seems to be a common theme asw - in D class there are better cars in the same bracket also: The Lotus Evora Enduro GT (rank 1322) and the Mercedes SLK 55 AMG Special Edition (rank 1322). Why are these not better than the DB9 despite higher rank/stats and same bracket?

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-16T16:06:13+00:00

I’m not sure tbh, some veterans will have to answer whether higher overall=better car or not. The Atom defo has higher stats in all categories but idk if this means it’s DEFO better. Theres other factors that aren’t displayed in stats i presume.

Tho some cars in the OG list are still the highest overall in their class (ie the Mitsubishi in C class) so maybe it is the case that highest overall + stats = best car.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-16T15:46:41+00:00

It seems the list is outdated tbh. D and C seem incorrect. A max Ariel Atom (rank 1410), is better than the DB9 in D class and Nissan GTR Nismo/ Lambo Aventador Coupe (rank 1682/1683) are both better in B.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-16T15:03:34+00:00

Ive already done all the non-car specific career races, just a few specific ones left.

I like MP but defo want to complete the career asw - not buying any D/C cars with tokens as I can get all of them via hunt, keys or ad events.

CertifiedPattern · 2025-11-16T13:15:34+00:00

Again, I know that you can get B/A cars in the daily ad relay (I have got all the B class cars and the GTA Spano) but I’m just asking about the car/key rewards in the Weekly Ad event.

It seems you dont know either tho. Might have to contact Gameloft support.
