    @EA_IlliumHello and thank you for the reply! Based on other posts in the community, this is happening on majority of platforms 100% of the time. Requested info is below. Also, the original thread, which includes screenshots, can be found here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Franchise/Unable-to-disable-Home-Field-Advantage-Franchise/m-p/12864416#M738

    Platform: Xbox Series X
    PSN ID/Xbox GT: Laws.iv
    Region: North America

    Are you getting an error message? There is no error message. Rather, the "Turn OFF Momentum/Home Field Advantage" feature in Franchise mode/League settings does not work. When turned off, it still appears in-game and impacts gameplay

    Which game mode if this happening in? Franchise

    Date this issue started (is it still happening?)? Day 1 of release

    Is anything else happening? No. The option to disable Momentum/Home Field Advantage in Franchise League Settings does not work as intended

    Please share any steps you've tried to far to resolve the issue: There is no resolution

    If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip: Screenshot can be found on our original case/post HERE: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Franchise/Unable-to-disable-Home-Field-Advantage-Franchise/m-p/12864416#M738

    Platform: PS5

    PSN ID/Xbox GT: snit06

    Region: Western Canada

    Are you getting an error message? no

    Which game mode if this happening in? Franchise

    Date this issue started (is it still happening?)? First game I tried to play

    Is anything else happening? Momentum impacts the gameplay even though it is set to "off". It is there regardless.

    Please share any steps you've tried to far to resolve the issue: Reboot, turn it on and off again etc.

    If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip... Not sure that is necessary, there are a few uploaded already. Please trust me when I say it's set to "off" but remains on anyways.

    If on PC, please share a DxDiag (Allows us to get PC Spec's, Check for errors/crashes, and look at drivers)

    Platform: PS5

    PSN ID/Xbox GT: TheIRISH2K

    Region: United States

    Are you getting an error message? No

    Which game mode if this happening in? Franchise Mode

    Date this issue started (is it still happening?)? 8/15/23

    Is anything else happening? No, just the Momentum Meter/Home Field Advantage displaying on screen and the effects impacting the game after we were told that feature could be turned off. This has delayed the start of an online franchise spanning 5 years of participation.

    Please share any steps you've tried to far to resolve the issue: There are no steps to try, the solution is a patch update that should've come out Friday, August 18th when the game was released.

    If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip: There is no clip or screenshot...just load up your own copy and turn the setting off in Franchise...should find a similar result.

    @EA_Illium Hello! Any update here? Is EA aware of this issue? Haven't seen it acknowledged on any of the recent dev team posts

    Even after today's update, still unable to turn it off. The one thing I really want fixed so I can actually play the game. Apparently not important I guess

    Still no acknowledgemt from EA after almost 10 days. I've seen reports by users on the Answers board, reddit, Twitter/X, YouTube, Facebook, etc. I'm not even asking them to fix it at this point. At this point, letitng us know their aware of the issue would be considered progress. Seems like an easy fix on an issue that impacts gameplay that is being ignored for too long

    Very disappointed this wasn't fixed today.  Can't even start my trial properly, let alone even consider purchasing the game.  An update, or even an acknowledgment would be nice ...

  • Good Day,

    When will this bug finally be fixed??
    There is also no information about the upcoming changes and when to expect them at all!
    Does anyone actually test the game before it is thrown on the market for so much money?

    Bad service!!!

    If the last 2 years are any indication, this and the draft edit problem won't be fixed until January if at all. This is the reason I didn't bother buying the game at release this year for the first time since 1991. Almost $200 wasted the last 2 years was enough for me. I'll wait until this game is $20, if I even bother to buy it at all. I have lost all respect for EA now. They've burned me too many times and don't seem to care.

    We should be given free codes for our past loyalty at this point. 

  • @EA_Illium so you got how many replies to this....and EA nor anyone on here or Twitter/X has acknowledged this issue even exists....but god forbid if MUT is having an issue....stop the servers and fix it yesterday! Moments like this are why EA gets accused of not caring about Franchise mode. You can paint over the laziness with "scouting changes" and "free agent changes" but the issue remains when something breaks or is hurting the experience....EA DOES NOT CARE!
