Cannot evolve a base icon after applying the Red FUT Champs

Hi,

I have a problem of evolving a base icon after turning them red. It was supposed to be cosmetic change only, but now it makes my base Beckham ineligible for the "Legends of the Pitch" evo.

  • the product code: EA FC 24
  • your username: asromafanisme
  • the date and time that you noticed the bug: when the "Legends of the Pitch" evo was released (9 March 2024, 6pm GMT)
  • your device type: PC
  • any troubleshooting steps you’ve already tried (like restarting your device): restarting the game, checking the card, etc.

A pretty simple solution would be exchanging the card: you can take away my red Beckham, and give me back an untradeable base Beckham.

Or you can revert my red Beckham back to the base icon card.

This needs to be fixed ASAP, otherwise the evo will expire.

Thanks and Regards,

evolutions

    @asromafanisme As far as I know, answer lies in your problem statement - "evolving a base icon after turning them red. It was supposed to be cosmetic change only"

    In game, cosmetic change meaning card type change. Since evolution has requirement of card of type of base icon card, your red card is ineligible for this evolution.

    @sanket_360 A cosmetic change that alters how a card functions is no longer a "cosmetic" change. This is a bug from EA's side, and players were not warned about its side effect before applying the Red evolution. Hence, instead of being rewarded by achieving a certain WL wins, I am being punished.

    The solution I provided above (exchanging my red Beckham with an untradeable base icon Beckham) is pretty straightforward and easy to do.

    @EA_Aljo , @EA_Darko , @EA_Illium , @EA_Kent , @EA_LeonSK  I am ready to load up EA FC Points to complete the "Legends of the Pitch" evo, but I could not spend those EA FC Points because of the above bug. I am having a problem with spending EA FC Points on this game.

    You guys have been online since my post, can you stop ignoring my post and answering my question?

    @EA_Darko Because you said you removed the original post in your message to me in Inbox: "I have removed your posts". I have a screenshot of your message.

    So can you advise how can I follow up with my original issue? Nobody has attempted to look at my issue yet.
