Re: Team Builder spinning - Error 400

My only advice would be (and you may have already heard this, but it's the extent of my knowledge) is in order to avoid being unable to save/submit, make sure there's no "profanity" or copyright material in your team's name, nickname, and abbreviation. Which can be kind of hard since EA considers a lot of pretty silly things to be "profanity," for example I was trying to recreate Miami's TE Riley Williams, and it wouldn't let me because the name "Riley" was considered profanity. So as long as your names check out, its possible you have yet to select a color for your jersey's/helmets. If you're using the default colors and trying to save, sometimes the colors it starts you off with won't actually be selected so you have to go select them yourself in order to save. If all that is in order you should (in theory) be able to save, and not have to deal with the 400 message. As for uploading images/logos, just make sure they are in the "PNG" format, and preferably size small. I tried to mistakenly upload a JPEG thinking it would work and I sat there stuck on the loading screen for like half an hour before realizing.

  • The Error 400 might just be linked to a corrupted team save.

    I am able to freely save and submit everything on my team that I have gotten to successfully upload before. Meanwhile, another save I have not submitted yet appears to be plagued by the error.

    Maybe the key at the moment is creating a new team from scratch until you get lucky

    Hey, I get where you're coming from, and I want this to work just as much as anyone. At the same time, we all shouldn't have to get "lucky" trying to upload our team, or do it in one fell swoop and pray it works! Rather, EA should just figure this out being a multi billion dollar company and get this fixed. Why they would release a "beta" at launch and not just the finished product is beyond me. Just do better. You have the resources. Do your jobs and fix it!

    Was Teambuilder even announced to be in a beta prior to launch? I swear I saw NOTHING mention that teambuilder would be in beta until I logged on last Saturday and suddenly "beta" was up next to the teambuilder logo. 

  • @nsgc2piy6yli Totally agree. I was pissed all the first weekend when none of it would work for me. Then I did get lucky with some of these updates as EA works through it. There have been up's and down's since. Even as I can save a new team now, I still want to hold EA accountable. Not just for a stable beta site, but for the addition of MUCH needed features and QOL updates. I'm sorry for anyone who can't create the team of their dream because EA completely fumbled the debut of this, but as long as we remain vocal, it will get there

    Try Edge or Brave browser for anyone having issues creating, saving, or submitting a team. Also, do not use a tablet or ipad. If you have a gaming pc, that is perfect but a regular pc gets the job done. 

    I have also noticed that if you cannot find your team when you search it or am having difficulties within teambuilder, your ea and xbox/ps5 username should be different. Also, double check that your ea account still does not have any other or older linked gamertags to it. Hope that helps yall. Stay up bros lol
