Re: EA FC 25 starhead thread

Posting this here too, why does Zirkzee have a blue headband and when will EA get rid of it???

He doesn't ever wear a headband.

It looks ridiculous!

I posted about this error in March on the FC24 starhead thread.

It’s an unusable scan for me with the headband. 

Whoever made the Zirzkee starhead made a mistake. He has a headband in game. He never wears a headband when playing.

It looks ridiculous and even worse if he transfers to a team without any blue on their kit. 

Seems logical he put the headband on during the capture session so they could capture his face without hair interfering with it. Other players have had to do this before like Elustondo below

There is a photo of him from the capture session with no headband but I can’t see an artist randomly adding a headband when creating the starhead since he doesn’t wear one IRL. Way too much work and for no rational reason.

Would imagine some players are scanned with and without headbands during the capture sessions and then the artists can render the hair. In this case it seems the artist created the starhead directly from the headband scan

I expect it will be fixed in the upcoming Holiday Update.

You have more faith in EA than I do. If history is anything to go by we'll be seeing that headband for another few years yet.

Anyone else have a problem with the game “sort of” crashing while playing a game and go into the menu to make a sub and then you get stuck in the menu. You can scroll and stuff but when you try to get back into to game nothing happens.

Maybe this belongs in another forum, but since I only play CM maybe you’ve guys caught it too…

How many held back Scans do they have at this point? 500+?

@noof11 
All of them are on sofifa too, there‘s an option in the settings where you can change gender to women and you will see the female data base

EA claims that the game is completely realistic, with over 19,000 players and 700+ clubs.
However, out of 19,000 players, only 3,000 players have their faces scanned, which is less than 20%.
How can you call it perfect realism when the other 16,000 or so players all have clay faces(Generic)?

I think it's ridiculous, EA.

(I apologize for my poor English)

Seems to be a delay on this Christmas update 

Those of you worried cranium would mean EAs stops focussing on real scans - I wonder if long time you’ll be right 

Seems the Witcher and were wrong.

Again :D

I don’t think Witcher said much about faces but Refifa did and that Mertzub guy on X did 

First Frost Update (Title Update #6)

Updated some kits, stadium, celebrations, scenes, messages, button callouts, badges, tifos, gloves, balls, banners, flags, boots, ad boards, hair, tattoos, trophies, audio, UI elements, and commentary.

There are no starhead in this update either... wtf..c25

First Frost Update brings 202 new player star heads to EA SPORTS FC 25. You can expect to see improved likenesses of players across different leagues and clubs following a Server Release after First Frost Update, including players from Ligue 1 McDonald’s: like Gianluigi Donnarumma, Jonathan David, Junya Ito, Sofiane Diop, and Deiver Machado.

First Frost Update Pitch Notes

Holy.... I love EA

Club Brugge appear to have been scanned.

Any PC players with a list of all the new faces?

Wanted to check, but still no squad update yet. or is there any other way?

Usually PC players can see, but no one’s posted today which is unusual

Seems alot of faces from ligue 1

Also Racing Club, Indenpidente and River Plate.

Feynoord and Club Brugge scanned.

As Belgian I am happy about this.

I‘m really happy with those additions ngl

Lots of high potential new real face players and Brugge scan was a big surprise

I noticed a pattern as EA tends to give players Ultimate Team promo cards just before adding their starheads to the game 

(Boey, Diop, Quintero, Omeragic to name a few) but it could definitely be a coincidence

Hopefully we will see updates and new premier league player scans when they add the newly promoted teams.

I'm also pleasantly surprised. I'm so done with unusable EPL scans. Thank god they finally focus on other leagues as well. Part of me hoped for scans of the promoted german teams too, though. :D
