Madden 26 Teambuilder issue

small issue but it's infuriating considering we paid money for the game and some of us only play Franchise and use Teambuilder as a way to have a custom franchise. 

The helmet banners and chinstraps are appearing chrome/black in game instead of white (or any other color you choose) that it shows in Teambuilder. It even shows correctly in the preview in Download Center in game, but when you download the team and start a franchise, then play a game or view players in Adjust Lineup, the chinstraps and banners are chrome/black. It takes away from what our team is supposed to be.

In Madden 25, the chinstraps and banners would automatically default to the color of your helmet. Initially in M26, it was working fine and no issues, but just in the past week this glitch has surfaced, PLEASE FIX OR I WILL NEVER PURCHASE MADDEN AGAIN UNTIL EA Loses the rights. It's ridiculous, .I'm so tired of being patient with this nonsense. Get TEAMbuilder right or remove it altogether. It's not fair to your customers and we're tired of the constant glitches. You also need to add more features like shoulder stripes (think NE Patriots, LSU tigers, etc.), sock stripes (Think Browns, etc.), and fix the sock issue (I make the undersocks blue and base white, ONLY one color shows up). What's the point of having the sock option in customization with no sock, low, med, high when it ALWAYS defaults to one style for the WHOLE TEAM. It's ridiculous. GET IT RIGHT EA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WOULD GET A REFUND BUT ITS TOO LATE. PLEASE FIX AND MAKE THESE IMPROVEMENTS.

    We just need to keep this thread and start new ones until they finally acknowledge and fix it. Comment as many times as you want on my post lol. This happened last year and me/a bunch of others kept spamming the forum until they finally fixed it. I'd love to see them address these issues, and also add back the physical customization like arm size, etc. and also make it so I can equip gear to both sides. You cant equip cleats to both feet anymore you have to go and manually select the same cleat on each foot, MAKES ZERO SENSE lol so many issues. Hopefully they fix it for us brothers.

    After all the flaws last year. Stuck with scrunchy socks ect. I was more then satisfied this year. I spent. hrs in photo shop designing all my stripes perfecting every detail. EA or Nike would wanna hire me if they saw my uniforms. Just finished 2 teams and im about to start my franchise and now im stuck with chrome bumpers. I dont even know anymore with these dudes. Its bad enough they didnt update generic faces. They do the hard part meaning most everything thing about teambuilder looks amazing but allow a stupid glitch to ruin it.

  • If someone can contact any Ea staff member about this issue, please do so because this makes any sense how there ripping us off for all we spend 

  • I been having same issue my teambuilder teams were working  fine until recently the game updated. My front bumper & white bumper of my created teams were white util the game just updated. There's a bug in game causing this & Ea will not address it! Keep trying too contact Ea member too fix it because isn't fair too costumers who spent hard earn money on game.

    ****Update - this appears to be an in-game equipment issue linked to created TB teams. Axium, Light Gladiator, Light LS2, Vicis Zero 2 all look correct, but every other helmet model in-game has the shiny chrome/black glitch on the helmets. PLEASE PASS ALONG TO THE TEAM THAT FIXES.
