Career mode crashing on intros when match started.

Though FC26 was gonna be new and much better then FC25 but my god I was wrong. If anything things just got worse especially at career mode. At 3rd season on my manager career mode and every time I start a match and go into the intro the game freezes and crashes. I tried to skip intros in the settings and it’s still crashed. Nth works for me apart from force stopping the app four freaking times. Issue came from last update. Fix this issue pls ffs. Playing on PC.

    Hey zkevjbdjh7zp​ 

    I’m not able to confirm exactly what’s causing this on your setup, but since you’re on PC and the freeze occurs at the same point (match intro), it may be related to a corrupted or recent save file. One thing that’s worth trying:

    Quick workaround to test:

    • Go to your FC save folder (C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\EA SPORTS FC 26).
      • Make a backup copy of all your save files first (just copy them somewhere safe).
    • In that folder, you should see multiple saves numbered in order.
    • Delete the most recent save file (the highest number).
    • Launch the game and load your career again.

    This will roll your progress back slightly, but it can sometimes help skip past the point where the crash is happening.

    If that doesn’t change anything, I’d also recommend going through the usual PC checks (GPU driver update, Windows update, lowering settings) just to rule out anything else.
