Re: Career Mode Bugs

Sorry I am new to this forum stuff so apologies for repeating anything already moaned about.

I only play career mode and it is shocking. West Ham fan so normally play as them (don’t judge). The bubbles prior the matches at home starting are a nice addition, but not 10 minutes in to the match when the bubbles are the same size as the ball.

crowd cheering and dancing before the game is good, but mine has a running man theme when 80% of the fans just freeze.

I don’t get notifications of transfer offers so have to go to transfer hub every few days.

why after 15 years can you just not change the shorts & socks of your team, and why are most keepers wearing the same colours as their team.

same transfer and contract negotiaion screens for the past 5 years at least.

half time and full time whistle goes off once in the menu not in the match when it should.

it’s an absolute joke, every year we all pay out for the new game, and to be honest, it’s only for the new kits and updated leagues. Ridiculous.

commentary is also shocking.

final straw for me was today whilst playing, got to the FA cup final, players walk out with the ref and it’s the bloody premier league throphy on display. Win the match and handed the premier league trophy to lift. Absolute joke of a game. I am done.

Excellent list of grievances. For me, not having the ability to individually select the jerseys, shorts, and socks options for the entirety of the thirty years this game has been in existence is ridiculous, and have mentioned the issue in a number of posts over the past ten years. Nearly every game release by EA Sports of Madden and College Football (unsure about NHL), since the late 1990s or early 2000s has an option for selecting the uniform/kit options separately from a hardcoded configuration. Just in the past ten days, I have watched Premier League matches with Aston Villa, Manchester United, and West Ham, in which those clubs used white shorts with their white jerseys, and in EA FC 25, believe all of them have white jerseys and dark coloured shorts.

Glitches like this are insulting. The only conclusion I can draw is a lack of offline playthrough by the devs or a total lack of desire to fix it.

The player edit section in career mode is completely ludicrous and has been largely the same layout/ empty catalog for almost a decade. For glitches to exist that stop you from simply being able to remove gloves or a sweatband for a game that cost £70 - £90 and a section to look the same for so long is insane.

Another minor frustration for me is seeing the odd player pop up with ring tape...... it was present about 7 years ago and still isn't an option to add as an accessory in player edit, or importantly remove it... since EAs accessory graphics look like something from the SEGA Megadrive. It doesn't even show up on a player who has it in edit player mode LOL!

Not only is career mode basic and completely riddled with glitches, many are the same glitches that have existed for years! They do not care.

The underdeveloped negotiation cutscenes are a slap in the face to anyone who has ever played a good video game.

@EA

Have all of the issues in this thread been looked at by someone working on live bug fixes for career mode?

As mentioned the mode would be significantly improved if addressed.
