Share any troubleshooting you've tried so far...

  • I'm having this issue currently no offensive coordinator to choose platform ps5 madden 2023

  • Platform: PlayStation 5

    PSN ID/Xbox GT: DarkHark

    Region: Florida

    Are you getting an error message? There is no data to display

    Date this issue started (is it still happening?)? 3/22/23 Still happening

    Is anything else happening? Nothing abnormal

    Share any troubleshooting you've tried so far... closing the franchise and reopening, turning off PS5 and reloading

    If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip...

  • So I was having this problem too.

    What you need to do is before starting the off season fire your OC.

    Then hire new one. 

    Problem solved. 

  • I am having this problem as well. Looking at thread of messages. I am seeing that people have found a solution. However, I’m not sure if it applies to my situation. I’m the only user of a league on a cloud franchise. Therefore, I cannot access other teams. Can EA give me an individual patch for this?

  • This issue is happening in my 2027-2028 offseason. I'm going to try the work around. I'm also going to try to do a similar work around to trade my qb back to myself bc I cannot resign him due to cap space. Cap space is off and I have 276M in funds.

  • I have the same issue I'm stuck on coach retired after Superbowl now I can't jump in an play just sim

  • Yeah this is still happening.  

    Platform: PS4 on PS5

    PSN ID/Xbox GT:

    Region:

    Are you getting an error message? Yes

    Date this issue started (is it still happening?) 5/10/23

    Is anything else happening? Seems to be only the coaches you lose to hiring. 

    Share any troubleshooting you've tried so far... fired other coach and can access database to hire coach on defense.  On offense where I lost my coordinator, no coaches are available.  

    If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip...

    I am playing Madden 23

    Ps5

    4th season after having to start completely over after franchises got corrupted.

    I live in Oklhaoma

    Experienced this a few days ago and cannot figure out how to get around this.

    Hard to get excited about a game that continues to have problems.

  • Having this issue as well. 
    on Xbox x
    GT: JmoneyLAFLARE

    Error message: no data available

    @EA_Illium Still happening. I quit playing in February because it got too aggravating. Just checked and it’s still doing it on 23. Haven’t got that far on 24 but it’ll be my last time buying it if easy fixes like this are simply ignored.
  • I can’t continue the 2027 franchise because it wants me to hire an offensive coordinator but when I try there isn’t any staff to hire. This has happened before and I erased the franchise and started all over and now I’m back to the same problem
